WOW. It's been awhile since I have been here. I made a new purchase today. Picked up the p2000 in 9mm. LEM trigger. It felt nice but that was only snap caps in the shop. I still have not been to the range with her yet. This will round out my "collection" My three favorite hanguns were...

Thanks Folks. I cleaned up the 92 for the heckof it last night and I am going to keep her. The dealer was going to give me $400 towads the P99. I figure I will just start saving some coin and buy the P99 later. Reading your posts this morning sounds like that it the right decision. Living...

I have been shooting for about 2 years now. My first purchase was a stainless 92FS in 9 mm which I liked at the time due to its size and ease of take down. Last weekend I shot my friends P99 (.40) which I found very comfortable and seemed to shoot well. I did not have the 92 with me that day...

unfortunately I attended both events. I walked from Ground Zero to midtown then over the 59th street bridge which is the equivalnet of 8 miles or so. During the blackout this past summer. I walked from midtown to MSG then back up to midtown and then walked to Shea stadium in Queens. All...

Stainless 92FS in 9MM So far it's great! I have about 350 rounds through it now without any discernable problems I can tell. The gun is better than I am for sure

I have been to Colisuem a few times I am green but learning. I found the store decent as far as comparing them to the few stores I have been in. The staff are real nice and friendly. Most of the rifles I notice around the store are geared towards hunting (bolts, shotguns). Their pistols...

I remember years ago My father is a retired NYC firefighter. We were at the house picking up his paycheck when he was on vacation. His house was in a particulary bad neighborhood but the local residents watched out for the firemen cause as they put it "they are the only one's who show up...

I know but family and employment prevent me from moving out of NY. I did move out of NYC which makes thinks s little simpler but at this point, it's all I can. It makes me appreciate what others have that much more.

thanks all I have found an incredible amount of knowledge from this board. I have posted my story before about gettimg my permit in NYC. This started about 1 year ago with a friend who I see3-4 times a year mentioned I should get me permit. I thought yeah right but I have it today. I...

I got my permit a few months ago and purchased a stainless Beretta 92FS in 9MM. I went with 150 rounds of 115 grain ball ammo. In NYC it helps to have a membership to a gun club when applying for a permit(although it's not a requirement) I bought hearing protection and eye protection. From...

I must be lucky As you can see I live in NYC. (well just moved so I am just outside of NYC) and I have a local shop within 10 minutes travel time. And they are nice to me! I did let them know that I am new to guns but at the same time I am looking for this and that. They were very patient...

My first time many many years ago. ( I am just starting again with guns ) a bunch of us went shooting upstate on a friends property. We went a secluded field that had hills on three sides so nobody was coming and we kind of had berms around us. Anyhow, we are all shooting. I had a .22...

Children are a product of their environment Kids only know what they see every day. This child obviously saw that he could carry on without repercussions. I remember when I was small and was out of line, a crack in the but snapped me out of whatever mindset I was in, then I got the talking to...

Knowledge I am very knew to the firearms world of things and I look to everyones experiences and hopefully learn from them. My questions cannot be new ones so I look to the search feature to find information. Really I use this like an encyclopedia. I don't post much but when I have some...

probably didn't charge the perp until the ballistics come back to match the gun to the bullet. once confirmed you will probably see the attempted murder charge added. Disclaimer not a lawyer but this just seems to make sense to me. I am sure others will no better
