man, last time I bought a box of 250 REM 9mm it was 45 bucks and I think .45 was going for 55 or 60

Andrew.. academy sells a box of 50 count 9mm for like $8 bucks...
(hence for 250 rounds you'd only spend 40$, savin 5$ adds up over time)
I like the way those shoot, never had a jam or anything out of them.
dont waste your money on rem's for just target practice..

Nice! I had a HK 9mm compact that I am still kicking my azz for when I traded it for a Glock 19.....I bought the HK for a real nice price and a month after I traded it, Massachusetts declared HK's "unsafe" and were not able to be sold anymore......what a kick in the shorts that was


The G30 is a great little although chunky .45.....I also have a Ruger P97 that I got basically brand new for 199 dineros..for the money that is an outstanding piece. I bought most of my stuff before Massachusetts enacted their ridiculous anti gun laws which compares a Glock to a toaster


Since UI escaped to NH I am now free to buy whatever I want...I'm thinking a mil spec Springfield .45 might be next as I want to at a 1911

1911's are good, why did the declare the HK unsafe? That's just dumb.

Ruger fans, does anyone have the new Ruger LCP in .380? I was thinking about getting one as my every day carry gun and wanted some feedback... The .45 is just too heavy!

Lookup the Consumer Safety Act for Massachsetts....they passed a law where there is now an approved list of firearms in MA...a lot of perfectly good firearms were left off that list so now MA residents are restricted to what is on that list.

For example on how whacked Massachusetts is...if a Glock was made prior to a certain date in 1998 in is a legit completley safe firearm...if it was made 1 day later than this date it is an unsafe POS that is not allowed in MA

Yes folks these are the same people that bring you Kerry and Kennedy and good ole Barney Frank with logic like that

Goose, you probably haven't seen the end of it yet..... Sounds like a ploy to get all guns out! Just a matter of time before more and more are deemed "unsafe" by the folks who have probably never shot a gun.
Oh ya, that's right, I remember seeing the picture of Kerry with the shotgun when he was running... Seemed about as natural as I would look in high heels (NOT!)

I hope your not talking about those piece of craps in the green box, I cant remember the name right now. Those are no where as near as smooth as the Rems...

monarch ammo or blazer is like 7$ n a black box.. i've shot well over 1,000 of those, never had one problem with them, and the gun cleans up very easy, not much left in barrel.. dont hate cause i buy cheap stuff
