Experience with HK VP9
Was browsing on Black Friday and guy at Ramsey Outdoor recommended the Heckler & Koch VP9. Felt awesome. Went home and did some research on this 9mm. Have fired other HK's but not this one. Wondering if anyone has had the opportunity to use (or better yet own) one of these and get your thoughts please...thanks.

Looking for opinions on Subaru Forester or Outback
After you buy it, just make sure you peel the Obama sticker off the bumper.

Anyone know a good place to get gun safes in NJ?
Agree about Dicks. For mid-level safe, which as long as it's in a secure place should be ok, Dicks has a decent selection and good prices. Black Friday should be a prime time for a good deal. Or go to Cabellas in PA: http://www.cabelas.com/catalog/browse/gun-safes/_/N-1100213/Ns-CATEGORY_SEQ_104369580?WTz_l=Unknown%3Bcat104730480

9th circuit rules "good cause" for handgun permits impermissibly burdens the 2nd amendment
14% of NJ are gun owners. Most have to take some interest in their rights. If each gun owner converted one more person to our constitutional right you're at almost 30% of the pop. That becomes a more powerful and larger voice. Keep on keeping on.

Great info. Thanks for the responses. T Bill, glad I'm not the only one.

How well should you know someone before giving them a reference
I don't see why references become the arbiter of the 2nd Amendment. Most of us are against the intrusion of government in this realm, so don't see any difference why you wouldn't be a reference for someone. You'd therefore be judge and jury against someone else's right, not privilege, of owning a gun. And in this state, the more people we can attract, the better. Sure if you hang with criminals (which I'm sure none of us do...) that might be different...but again that's why they have background checks. That's enough in my book.

Gun cleaners
I know Hoppes is most people's preference for regular cleaning, lube, oil etc. Curious if anyone uses Tetra and if so what their thoughts are? Thx.

+1 for Ottomanelli's Sporting Arms
Been there thrice. Disappointed with the service each time. If I wanted attitude I'd go to the DMV. They scored the hat trick and now they are out for me. Too bad because their location next to GFH would otherwise make it a no brainer.

Woodland Park Range
Took the wife to GFH last night to shoot the new Beretta Inox fs92. She's a beauty (wife's not bad either). Continue to be impressed with Anthony's place. My wife is new to shooting and naturally nervous but Ant's great demeanor and comfortable establishment settled her nerves. We had a blast. Can't wait till the rentals are avail.

Tennessee Report
If you're in Charlotte make sure you go to Hyatt Gun Store. Was there two weeks ago and it was awesome. Great selection, excellent service and empathetic bout me living in New Dirty. They had a good ammo selection that was fairly priced. Couldn't deal with hassle of bringing back on plane or paying to ship. But if you're in the area it's worth a stop.

This gun looks amazing, and shoots even better
That looks awesome. Enjoy.

I guess mine was a preemie: 3+ mos with extension for permit. NICS labor only 4 days.

New Baby Announcement
Today I welcomed a new addition to the family at 10:30 this morning. She's a beautiful, American born Beretta 92FS Inox. Stands at 5.4" tall and barrel is 4.9", weighs a healthy 33.3 oz. Baby and Dad are doing fine.

Ammo Stolen
I've ordered from both Cabelas and Natchez before with no issues. The UPS tracker just showed it was shipped from Chattanooga but not where it was off loaded here. The picture of the small arms sticker they put on as a bullseye is too big to post. But it's blue with white type and says "cartridges, small arms" and in big type "ORM-D". Guess Sweeney will have to right some more laws to make sure Ammo thievery isn't just illegal but also fault of legal purchaser.

Ammo Stolen
I ordered 10 boxes of ammo from Natchez. When package arrived it seemed awfully light. Opened it up and only 150 of 500 rounds were in there. I called Natchez (they were super helpful) and they asked about the tape used on the box. Guess they used special tape - my package had been opened and re-taped. Guy said it happens a lot and they'd file UPS claim and ship me the remaining 7 boxes. Surely the stoker on the outside of the package which announces small arms/cartridges inside makes it a topic. Anyway, sucks that I've got to wait for ammo to re-ship, but happy with service from Natchez. Some UPS employee probably has a bunker full of stolen ammo.

Prices on ammo before they shot up.
Natchez has 9mm brazer .36 a round, CCI for .38. 5 box limit for each.

Woodland Park Range
Going tomorrow. Can't wait. Passed up a 10:30 tee time for my first visit here. Sure it will be worth it. Anyone going in the AM, I'll be the one with the Nashville Predators t-shirt and the big ass grin.

Take your card to staples of Office Depot and for a couple bucks they'll laminate it for you. Done and done.

I went late this afternoon for the tour. It's like our field of dreams. People will come, Ant. Oh people will most definitely come.

Range in Florida
Ended up going to Del Ray shooting center. Had read many reviews that staff were difficult. Couldn't have been further from the truth at my experience. Super helpful. Range was clean and it was easy to rent guns. Now the bad news: they had no 9mm to rent. Good news, we shot a very nice Springfield 1911. Really bad news: now my wife wants to buy a 1911. Actually that's good news too. They had a great selection of handguns - 9mm, .40, etc. Let us handle whatever we wanted. And $35 transfer fee, btw. Really good time. Recommend to others if they go the area. http://www.shootingcenters.com/

Range in Florida
Thanks. Del Ray looks closer to where I'll be, and a little less expensive then the West Palm one. Appreciate the responses.
