Yeahhh yeaahhhh... I would let her pick one but my LGS and most others wont let her touch them as she has no FID. Such BS.... So what i might like she probably wont. I think Branchburh Heritage was ok with it, but Rahway gave me the nastiest look when i even dared ask, as though shed try and kill them right then and there. Otherwise i wouldnt even ask.. i may have to go to Easton or Branchburg for her to hold something.

Midway has a 60 day return policy if they for some weird reason dont want to replace it. Not a big fan of their policies though and dont really expect to shop there again. Never had a CS rep tell me to purchase a product again and return it under the order number i paid more $$ for, rather than just refund the difference.... lolNonetheless, a great deal at 165.

Itd have to be a mighty large house to conceal more than one basket. I have a safe and steel cabinet in my house but its only 500sqft... cabinet has some ammo in the bottom, rest is in the safe. If you have the $$ and dpace definitely get a few safes. One on each floor would be awesome, especially for home defense... train everyone to run to that one room if SHTF and lock n load. For me, i get out of bed and take 15 steps and im about across my house, so... different for me i guess lol

Contacting them now to get a partial refund/price match on the one i paid 200$ for a few weeks ago. If not, they're getting it returned and ill repurchase it for 165! haha Edit: Called them and they said they can't refund me the 35$. I asked if i could reorder it and then return the one i paid 200$ for as they have a 60 day return policy, and they said thats fine i just have to pay return shipping costs. What a stupid way to do business!

She obviously wouldnt have access to the firearm if i am not present, nor would it be a HD gun. I have a 12G and Glock set up for that. I'm not going to jail over a hobby Again, it is exclusively to keep her entertained with something other than my 15-22 she picked out in 'pumpkin' finish, haha. The firearm is obviously mine and will be locked in my safe which she does not have access to.. Itll also allow me to hold it over her head when i want another firearm for myself

Its not a HD gun; i have my glock 19 with a surefire weapon light on it for that. This is exclusively for shooting paper when we go to the range. Id probably keep a loaded mag in it in the safe in case, but that is far from its real purpose. Id consider a .22, but she knows how to shoot firearms. Maybe not as well as me, but she shot when she was younger as a lot of her family has guns.. im the 1st generation (and only one) to be armed in my family, other than a few up in Israel. I had a lengthy discussion about it with my father on the way to the airport. Im fairly sure he now understands why ive been stocking up. He believes that with enough terrorist attacks here in NJ theyll loosen the laws like Israel did to encourage people to open carry to deter rogue attacks.. what he didnt understand was the mentality here is to blame the weapon, not the terrorist.. Anywho, im going to visit heritage with her sometime this week to look around. She shot my 45 so 9 or 380 would be fine. A 22 would be cool since i have tons of 22 anyways, but i dont know if shed be into them as most are fairly fugly. I just want suggestions so i know what to look at at heritage rather than any gun they have thats colorful, which is what she tends to do while im doing my own shopping..

I got a 35 gun safe, thinking itd be enough. Its been a few months and im already outgrowing it. Barely fits the 8 or so rifles i have on one side cause most have a sight. I prefer to keep everything in one safe personally as i like things being organized. My ammo stash outgrew my safe so now most of it is in a metal cabinet.. any extra space is filled with ammo to add some weight. Id suggest buying a single higher end, larger safe over two mediocre ones... itll be heavier and therefore harder to move (bad for moving into place, great for anti theft) but you wont end up with stack ons like me lol. I guess it depends on how many firearms we are talking about though. Id personally suggest buying a giant liberty and being done with it.. As for moving the safe, mines a stack on 35 gun so it wasnt too bad. The door comes off once you unlock it so we removed the door and used a furniture cart to get it in. Hard part was actually the shell which was a PITA as it barely fit through the 90 degree turn into the house. There are safe moving companies that can bring it into your house. I just had my neighbor, brother and friend help and if was more than enough... Youd want about one person per 100lb to manhandle it.

Plenty of people on here are willing to help with building if you want to go that route. I'll probably build my own AR15. It just takes tons of time doing the research for quality parts, and im not sure im patient enough for that crap lol.

Thats the one i mentioned in my initial post.. I saw it on armslist on one of monmouth arms posts for like 400$... I wouldnt think twice but the ammo is fairly expensive for it..Just bought a case of 9 for like 20 cents and change per round... 380 is quite a bit more for less 'bang'.... i know why, but that is whats keeping me from calling him up right now and paying for it over the phone, haha. I'd totally rock that thing, i think it looks badass and its got a safety and all which is great.. I guess its still less than my .45, though, and it probably wont get shot much.. I'll ask her what she thinks.

She was talking about getting hers. Just switched her DL to this address finally (after like 2 years of living in the new place) so ill have her look into it. Not sure if she is eligible as she was on meds when she was younger for anxiety and stuff, i believe. Any idea as to what the regulations are when it comes to the mental background stuff?

Because the first thing she picked is one of those itty bitty pink rugers.... If i'm getting her something it has to look decent in my safe. At the end of the day itll be my handgun with my name registered to it, and i'll be the one looking at it next to my 1911 and glock. Haha Ill probably go to heritage with her and look around and see what she likes.

That's not bad. Id have preferred the 380 but its like 20% more than 9mm, so she'll get a 9mm and thatll allow me to buy in bulk more (and justify it). Also to be clear, she's not a pink kinda girl.. Green or blue would be preferred. A great deal on a kimber sapphire would be perfect... impossible to find used though :/

Trying to find something to burn my 2nd pistol permit on... wifey has been bothering me for something so she can shoot when we are at the range together so i figured ill try and surprise her.. Anyone have any suggestions? She likes stuff like the kimber sapphire but that's just way too much $$ and i already have a 1911. I like the Walther pk380 in blue and white however i read online that the tolerances are really loose and it is ridiculously inaccurate, which is a no-go for me. Anyone know of something similar thats around the 500$ price range? I COULD have something cerakoted but dont really want to do so.. She likes the little 380 handguns that look like compact 1911's? They were fairly inexpensive with rosewood grips and stuff.. Not colorful, but she still liked them so that would be my preference but i dont remember what the hell they were... ughhh Think i found em, looks like the sig p938 and such. Edit: Nevermind, 380 is quite a bit more expensive than 9mm, i guess due to the oddball caliber. She's getting a 9mm! lol For those just joining in, to clear up the many questions asked below, it is MY firearm and will be locked with MY firearms in MY safe. It is exclusively for her to practice with when we are BOTH at the range.. she will otherwise not have access to it, nor is it a HD gun or anything like that.. Just something to keep her entertained when i bring her to the range with me..

Thats one of their dinky safes, mines a beefier one. Realistically, any safe with exposed sides is easier than you think to get into. As far as liberty and amsec, both can be purchased locally. As for stack on, i just had to put my safe outside and they had a company come take it and deliver a new one to my curb. The one from walmart has a slightly waved top panel and the carpet was a bit jacked (as reviews said) but i got a 15% or so refund for it, so no big deal... stuck the carpeting right back up lol... Anywho, amsec is supposed to be good. Liberty looks nice but 1300-1400$+ was pushing it for me, nor did i want to wait too long. Both seem to be about the same price range, so look into both and decide for yourself if youd like them. There are a few others as well. Go to one of your local safe dealers (heritage guild is nearby for me) and talk to them, as well.

Definitely sales tax exempt. In fact, ordering them online it automatically removes sales tax.. Just has to be labeled a gun safe; a large safe for the purpose of, say, files, still will be charged sales tax. Ran into that issue @ home depot. So, yes, gun safes are exempt from sales tax in NJ. Dont have the actual paper but if you go online and add one to your cart from any big box store that would otherwise charge sales tax, youll see it doesnt charge anything. As for a safe, I had a stack on that was defective. Great customer service replacing it and now i have a new stack on unit. If you dont care to spend the money, you can get a liberty, amsec, etc. which are the next step up and can be had for the 1500 or so price range. If you're getting one with a keypad, be sure to research... many tend to fail and stack on is the only brand that provides an emergency back up key, which is why i didnt get a cannon and such.... dont want to have to pay a locksmith 300$ to break into my safe and then have to replace the whole thing.

I gotta say, i was never one to like AK's but the picture on the 1st page of what looks like a magpul'd version actually looks pretty cool. Might have to pick one up, now.. Soon as i get rid of my M1A and Savage i'd like something like that and a nice bolt gun.

Any update? Was sitting outside in the sun today with an umbrella just waitin'...

Picked up some 9 the other day with that code. Not an AMAZING deal, but snagged some 9mm for 20.07 cents a round or something. Still cheaper than SGammo which is usually my go to, so cant complain.. They have IMI 5.56 for DIRT CHEAP.. I paid like 3 or 4 cents more a round and was forced to buy a case of 1200.... they have them in packs of 20 for only 32.4 cents or something a round after discount.. If you need some good stuff, buy some of it. Hard to find usually, sgammo is totally out of stock even at what now looks like a high price.

You would think they would offer it in all colors..Doh. As far as coating it, im not hands on familiar with cerakote but i'd imagine it would wear? Im surprised nobody else has chimed in, but ive seen nearly every coat fail... holster wear etc. eats right through most, though that could be an issue with improperly applying the finish rather than the coating itself being crappy... I dont know... just be careful. Dont want to make a good part look crappy.

I just looked a few hours ago and it said Saturday. I'm freakin confused.

You people are ridiculous.

I dont like shopping locally @ their physical store because then we get stuck with sales tax... Nice thing about cabelas is they dont have a NJ location... Bass pro does.

I just ordered a case of 9mm as well. Unfortunately i already picked up tons of 223/556 and dont have the $$ to buy another case of it just to sit.. already have a few k rounds which is enough for a WHILE.. need the 9mm much more as i shot 200 in one day and only have 800 out of the case left, haha.

My mobile home is in a flood zone but it's about 4 feet off the ground... Just have to make sure i take stuff off the ground in my shed and park my fiance's car at my mothers house. So, not so worried about the house flooding. Just all the crap in my shed and storage bin thing outside... Im right off the main power lines as well (that explains my recent memory loss), so power loss is fairly unlikely. If it does happen, i'll attempt to drive to my mothers home with my truck and hope for the best, haha. Not looking forward to major storms...

They have IMI 5.56 for only 32.4 cents a round in multiples of 20. Thats a F**KING STEAL! I feel stupid, since i spent like 35 cents a piece for a case of 1200....
