Cmor1701d

It's needed for the special ammo allowance the NRA is lobbying for as an add on to SSI.

While right next door in Montgomery it only took 3 months for my new batch of permits. It seems Somerset County mental health took the month of August off and took forever to get the firm back. We'll that accounts for one month!

Wow. Really nice looking gun. Enjoy!

My 229 elite with Hogue grips.

Update: Ruger shipped the SR45 back to me Friday via 2 day air. I worked from home this afternoon so I wouldn't miss the UPS driver. They replaced the extractor, fired 2 full mags through both of the mags (40) rounds with no FTE. I hope to get to a range this weekend to check it out.

Cmor1701d +1 guest but I will be away 11/16-11/23

Nice pics. Thanks for sharing.

Congrats in a job well done. I consider the takedown and cleaning aspect of any gun I look at buying now. My Sig 229 very easy takedown and cleaning. S&W 1911E is a bit more on takedown, as is any 1911, but cleaning is very easy. My Ruger SR45 has easy takedown, but a few hard to reach areas that I didn't notice until first cleaning. I also happen to be a Balistol fan, but I'm considering trying something stronger for those times I done clean within a day or two after getting back from the range.

My niece is in from Cali so I'll be heading to TR on Saturday. Can't make any Saturday the rest of October either. Hope to meet up with you folks at a future date.

I called Ruger customer service today. They emailed me a prepaid overnight UPS shipping label so no need to go to fly for shipping. I was told 7-10 days turnaround.

I licked up a new Ruger SR45 2 weeks and have put 300 rounds through it. I'm getting. FTE at least once per mag with both magazines. I've tried Winchester, Remington, and bulk pack Federal with the same results. Two friends tried it out Friday afternoon and both had the same issue. I'm calling Ruger about this on Monday as I gave up on the customer service wait time late Friday afternoon. Anyone else have this type of issue before? TIA

I really like my Laserlyte Laser Trainer 9-mm Cartridge http://www.amazon.com/Laserlyte-Laser-Trainer-9-mm-Cartridge/dp/B004NKY23E/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1380425599&sr=8-3&keywords=laserlyte+laser+trainer Expensive but worth it. I'm about to order one in 45 cal too

I have a 10/22 with a Alangator TriMag Magazine Coupler. Not quite the same as a 30 round clip, but close it. LR is available if you keep looking, at almost reasonable prices.

Welcome from a former OC resident.

Summer was half day Fridays so at least once a week. Now probably twice a month. Both Easton and Lakewood are close to an hour ride, but I prefer the Easton range.

At the range with my 12 yr old great nephew. His first time shooting a revolver (686). Of course he's using a zombie target. I stopped him for a minute to point out what his sight picture should be. Pointed at the target, front sight, rear sight and as I tell to focus on the front sight BAM while my hand was still too close. Nice black smudge from the blowback and few little dots that cleared up in a few days. And a very big lesson in range safety after that. ;-)

10/6 is good for me. I start SCUBA class the following Saturday so Sunday's only for October for me.

Will this be shotgun only or .22 too. I may pick up a shotgun tomorrow though so please let me know what day.

Shore Shot is the better choice of the two. Brick has a very limited rental selection. IF she shows any interest you may want to try a trip to Heritage Guild in Easton PA. Yes it's a day trip, but Tuesday is Ladies Day. They have a great selection of rentals, a friendly staff, and great range safety officers offering lots of advice if wanted.

Welcome to the forum. It's a bit of a ride for you, but Heritage Guild in Easton, PA just opened their new tactical range. The instructors there are very good too. You may want to check them out. I'm a member and have some guest passes if you want to meet there one day. Weekends are best though I do try to get there some Friday afternoons too.

I have a Smith 1911E TA and LOVE that gun. I looked at the PX4 and rented the FNX. Have not shot the PX4 yet but think I'm going to have a hard time deciding between them. The FNX was very comfortable and accurate out to 14 yds (max at the range). Rent them all and then decide.

Wow, had no idea thus existed. I grew up a few miles from there (Allenwood) and learned to shoot around there. Time to get on the list. Thanks

Thanks for the heads up as I'm a meeting a buddy there soon. I'm a member at Heritage in PA and get a 10% discount on ammo there, though they only sell for range use. But 9mm was around $17/50 and 45 was $26/50 before the discount. This was for FMJ Winchester/ Remington. Also got CCI 36 grain 22LR HP at $7.50? / 100 minus the discount They do limit you to 100 rounds per person, but I've been there with 4-5 friends at times and get the max :-)

Gunboat seems to only show the higher priced 22LR as in stock. Google was able to find a few other sources. I've had my 10/22 for a few weeks now. Approaching 1,000 rounds now.

I was just at the Clinton WMA the other day and the posted range rules allow 17 & 22 target practice. From the website... http://www.njfishandwildlife.com/wmaregs.htm Target Practice Only archery, shotgun, muzzleloading shotgun, muzzleloading rifle and modern .17 and .22 caliber rimfire rifle shooting is allowed in designated hunter training ranges. One member of the shooting party must have a current, valid New Jersey hunting license. The following types of ranges are available on designated WMAs statewide: Shotgun Range: for use with clay birds and the patterning of fine shot (lead-free only shot at Assunpinkand Colliers Mills); Archery Range: approved backstops at select ranges, no broadheads allowed; Muzzleloading Rifle and Shotgun Slug Range: for sighting in with shotgun slugs or buckshot, modern .17 and .22 caliber rimfire rifles and muzzleloaders; no other firearms allowed.
