Another New Guy From Old Bridge

[InfringeThis 0]

Hello all,

 

My name is Dave.  I'm originally from Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn and a long time supporter of 2A rights, however, I just became a LEGAL handgun owner today for the first time.      Back in the day, I went hunting and skeet shooting with friends and family in upstate NY and was recently reintroduced to shooting by a friend.

 

My primary reason for ownership is home defense but I'll see if I get any better at shooting and perhaps I'll turn this into an expensive sport/hobby.  I also kayak and snow ski which can be very expensive as well so let's see where this takes me.  I have a 2nd permit so I'm already eyeing another firearm. 

 

A big shout out to Steve from Monmouth Arms for handling my XDM 9mm 3.8 transfer today with great professionalism and patience.  Not to mention I had quite a few laughs in his office.  It was truly a great first time buying experience.

 

I'm currently shooting on some private property in PA but plan to decide on and apply for membership to a local range in the near future -- I will be guest visiting both CJRPC and OBRPC.

 

On a final note,  I lurked here for quite a few weeks leading up to my purchase to educate myself on various topics so I'd like to give a big thanks to all the members who contribute to this forum.

Yes, on the rare occasion I'm back in the neighborhood it's ether Randazzos, Brennan & Carr, Roll N Roaster, L&B Spumoni Gardens or the original Nathan's .

Thanks everyone for all the warm welcomes. I just became a probationary member at OBRPC yesterday. From what I hear, I'm sure I'll really like what I see at the CJRPC range but regardless of the facilities, I couldn't justify the travel time when OBRPC is just 5-10 minutes from my home.
