So after a year of waiting for my FID and PPPs I finally got them. Aside from the fact that it was literally a year to the exact date it was hassle-free. No extra forms just the standard application + 1 year + $9 cash and I got myself an FID and 2 PPPs. Went to NJ Firearms Guild to feel up some of the guns that I've been researching for the past year. Used the awesome price request tool that NJGF offers. For those vendors that are also active on the forums, Thank you for your responses. As most of the prices were very similar though, I went back go NJFAG since they were helpful and nice and most importantly they are close. So I went today and took home my very own Ruger SR9. Now where it says I'm a NJ Gun Owner under my name to the left, ITS ACTUALLY TRUE.

 

Now to find good deals on ammo and stock up, some ear and eye protection, cleaning kit, more ammo...

 

Congrats on your purchase. Enjoy it. And welcome to the addiction.

Congrats....

What made you decide on the ruger? New? Used? did you shoot it beforehand?

New. Yes, got to test one in the summer, and I liked it, it was really accurate for even a noob like me shooting it. I like the look, the weight, the feel, the sights. Most importantly I liked the price. I was also tempted by a Sig P226 9mm but at $200 more than the SR9, I couldn't see that as worth it. At least not until I have more money to throw around. Also wanting an AR but FID is good for life, PPPs expire.

I hang out at the NJFAG quite a bit. You should come shoot with me in Carteret some time.

I can't help but giggle every time someone types NJFAG... lol.

That just doesn't sound right.. :sarcastichand:

I guess that's why they use NJFG for their web address

Yeah. Since when did Firearms become Fire Arms?

I guess that's why they use NJFG for their web address

 

 

lol yes cause technically firearms is one word so its NJFG but adding the A is more convenient to say because it makes it a real word, and its kinda funnier that way.

Congrats! Always glad to have another new firearm owner in this state!
