Has anyone used this? Is it worth it for a self defense round. I've looked around and the best price is about $1.30-1.40/rd, is it that much better than a straight 00 buck for self defense?

You usually do best to watch cabelas or sportsman's guide and wait for one of their free shipping offers which they do 2 or 3 times a year. Check slickguns.com which frequently shows good ammo deals

Has anyone used Reliant Ammo: http://www.reliantammo.com/ammunition.aspx Their prices seem quite good and they offer a guarantee against rounds that don't fire.

I'm thinking of getting a Henry Big Boy chambered in .357 and I was wondering if it would take .38 special as well. I know most .357 revolvers will shoot .38, but I don't know if the feed mechanism in the Henry will handle it.

You can get a single-ten instead of single-six, which is basically the same gun with ten rounds. http://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/77287

It's from a survey, and the sample sizes seem somewhat small, but just FYI: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/health/interactives/guns/ownership.html

Great video about NJ's convoluted laws (Westchester, where I'm from and am just about to submit my permit app this week is almost as bad) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fC2iu3CTPc&sns=em

Good article in Forbes on current status of 2nd amendment issues: http://www.forbes.com/sites/larrybell/2011/10/18/liberal-courts-still-gunning-against-second-amendment-rights/

This is a newbie question, but when you see semi-auto handguns the capacity is always listed as 10+1 or 17+1, etc... But while this is a theoretical capacity it's pretty much a pain-in-the-ass, isn't it? Is there any way to get the extra round in the chamber other than loading a full magazine...

I'm a new shooter still waiting for my NY permit approval. You're required to buy a pistol to include on the permit application, so my first gun is a Ruger 22/45 MkIII. Once I get the permit, my wish list includes: 1st 9mm (still undecided, but am currently leaning toward in order: Sig...

There's some cool youtube footage I saw recently of someone shooting an 18" metal target at 200 yds with a Ruger MkIII. Only missed once.

Thanks for the advice. I think I'll at least start with an kit and then add pieces as I get more guns

I'm a new shooter still waiting for permit in NY, but in taking the basic safety course the instructor said I should learn to shoot with my left hand because I am left eye dominant. But I am really (really) strongly right-handed, where left-eye dominance is because my left eye was 20-20 when I...

I am a new shooter still waiting for my permit, but once I get the permit I expect to have minimally a .22, 9mm and .357 (maybe .44 Mag) plus a shotgun. Do you think I should buy individual brushes, rods. mops, etc... or just buy a nice comprehensive kit like this one: Outers Universal...

Thanks for all the suggestions and help, everyone.

Actually if I bought the Glock 17 or the Sig I was planning to get the .22 conversion kit (Sig made for the Sig or AdvantageArms for the Glock) so that I could shoot cheaper .22 (not exclusively, of course) at the range. I don't think there are any .22 conversion kits for the HK or Walther.

Thanks for all the suggestions. We've considered that. Someone suggested the Sig Sauer Academy in NH. We were actually scheduled to go out to CT for a day of live fire training, but my wife wants to wait until we're closer to getting a permit, otherwise she thinks it'll be wasted -- shoot for...
