Is this legit??
@Maksim I just realized when i ordered, i ordered like usual with my amazon prime, that then takes the money directly from my checking account. So these binocs were not paid for via PayPal. Is that an issue as the email states that the refund is issued through PayPal? SHould i cancel my order; rebuy the binocs, and then look for a paypal option at amazons checkout? Thanks Ron

Glad i wasnt the only one scratching my head when i read that email! Being somewhat new around here, thats the first time i received something like that. Now reading all the above, i just jumped on the deal! If you have amazon prime, its a No Brainer! Nothing to lose for what looks like a nice binocular for free! Looking forward to that paypal refund.

Glock 22 Gen 4 LE Trade-ins
No ones called me that since elementary school! And it was Ronnie! Anyway, everything i am reading is that the 40 cal. magazines will work fine; especially if they have little use (or zero previous use like mine). Also the .40 extractor works fine, just the brass flings a little on the wild side.. same deal with the .357 sig conversion barrrel. I like the idea of 1 gun and 3 barrel choices. Really makes the Glock 22 gen 4 a good buy decision since they are cheap to come by as .40 popularity fades away now that 9mm+P has taken its place. Ron

Range Bag - at the range
Kinda takes out some of the convenience out of using a range bag like this then. Sure would be nice to put EVERYTHING in the one bag and head off to the range..

Glock 22 Gen 4 LE Trade-ins
i picked up a brand new never fire one at an auction last month. 3 mags, glock case, cleaning parts, sealed paperwork, etc etc. 275$ plus fees,tax, nics; about 350$ out the door. Nice shooting gun. Was never a glock fan boy, but couldnt pass up the deal. Picked up a S.S. 9mm conversion barrel from bear creek arsenal. 45$ to my door. Takes about a minute to swap between barrels. Havnt shot 9mm rounds through it yet though. Ron

Range Bag - at the range
Safe to assume these types of range bags qualify for a proper transport case for firearms/handguns? As in load it up with 4 handguns, magazines, some ammo, etc; toss it in the back seat of the truck and head ot the range? Im thinking the guns and the ammo in the same bag may be an issue? Ron

Range 14 was closed today
Im way past due for a range day and my first trip to R14 after joining a few weeks ago. Pretty sad its 10 minutes down the road and i cant find any time to get there... On another note, anyone use a inexpensive bench rest for signting in purposes? I was looking at the sand bag type, or maybe this. https://www.amazon.com/Caldwell-Adjustable-Ambidextrous-Shotgun-Shooting/dp/B000VZ1IJG/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&keywords=bench+rest&qid=1576438311&sr=8-8 Opinions?

Inexpensive bench rest worth while?
Opinions.. Thinking of picking up a simple inexpensive bench rest setup to assist in sighting in some fun guns and hunting guns. Anyone use anything like this? reviews are decent. and anything should help factor out my swaying apendages and large groupings. I would be resting it on the shooting table at R14, etc. https://www.amazon.com/Caldwell-Adjustable-Ambidextrous-Shotgun-Shooting/dp/B000VZ1IJG/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&keywords=bench+rest&qid=1576438311&sr=8-8 Thanks Ron

Range 14 was closed today
Thanks for all the replies everyone! Defintily a help and appreciate the quick responses. Whats everyone do for chamber flags? Just buy their 6 bright yellow zipties for a buck? Or is there something better out there or something just as easy to make. Anyone go there on a regular occasion? or any NJGF informal meetups there? Ron

Range 14 was closed today
Just joined today. R14 is only 10 minutes from my house, so it was a no brainer. Ive been a gun owner my whole adult life, but never much of a range shooter. My shooting is mostly hunting scenarios. There is some land behind me that i can shoot whatever i want, when i want, but i havnt really taken advantage of that other than hunting. Prefer not to bother the neighbors with continual shooting. When i was 21 and bought my first handgun, S&W 686 .357, i went to an indoor ran a few times. Havnt been to legitimate range in 25 years since then. Fast forward those 25 years, and ive acquired a lot of firearms; handguns, rifles, shotguns, etc etc. Mostly safe queens but looking to change that with this membership to R14. Any suggestions for a new guy there? Whats your favorite target/type to bring? I would like to shoot .22, 9mm., .357 handgun, and then some rifles. Thinking all during the same trip. Ok to put out multiple targets at once and shoot various guns during the same trip? Would also likely be bringing a guest or two. Teenage son, girlfriend, etc.. Thanks Ron

Any idea how long theyre backed up in Trenton for background checks?

Any idea how long theyre backed up in Trenton for background checks?
Someone can correct me if im wrong, but; If the charges were dropped, then you Do Not have a criminal record. You would only have an arrest record, which i do not believe is even looked at or considered. Being arrested, and being convicted are two TOTALLY different things.. Ron

long gun / new law private sale question
do handguns need a nics or ffl transfer amoungst immediate family members? Specifically, i know someone who's mother inherited a pistol through the death of her husband. The son would be the logical one to inherit the pistol, but with no will specifiying that, the mother became the legal owner. Can the mother (with no FID or paperwork) gift the pistol to a son who has a valid P2P?

Hi point 995ts (with threaded barrel) legal?
Dont consider this accuarate legal advice, but everything i heard about this model (i have one, but pre-threaded barrel) is exacttly what your dealer is telling you. You could always reach out to the State Police via email or a phone call to get a good answer. I would only mentionthat your thinking of buying one, and then your question.. Ron
