ken1107 0 Posted October 30, 2015 Hi. I am sure I came to the right place for some knowledge and entertainment. First off, I am originally from NYC and dreaded being in the "burbs". After about a year I have come to realize I was missing a lot and it is definitely great to be in Jersey. I recently just got my FID and purchased my very first pistol (HK VP9). I am looking forward to learning from all of you, so thank you in advance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ken1107 0 Posted October 30, 2015 Thank you all for the warm welcoming. I knew I would be at home here. It really was a toss up between the VP9 and the PPQ (which I will eventually get) but a lot of reviews I read steered me to the VP9. I would not have been disappointed either way. Glad to be on board. Sent from my SM-G925K using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ken1107 0 Posted October 30, 2015 Im also from NYC....at first I hated it but now I dont miss the chaos and see what I was missing ....Yeah ain't that truth. It is also easier in NJ to excersise my 2nd amendment. I do miss NY from time to time for the ease and abundance of restaurants, other then that I haven't looked back.

Newtonian 453 Posted November 4, 2015 it is definitely great to be in Jersey. Welcome. You can learn a lot from these guys. But really, what are you drinking? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ken1107 0 Posted November 4, 2015 Welcome. You can learn a lot from these guys. But really, what are you drinking?I drank the kool-aid and now I am here. But seriously it is such a change of pace, and all the perks make it great. Ever tried to find parking in NYC or any of the 5 boroughs after work or a night out? It's horrific. Now I just come home pull my car into a driveway and relax. That's one of the major perks. Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk Just bustin'. I went to H.S. in NYC. My first shots were under W. 16th St. in 1968. But I could never live there. I hate even being there. I have to drive to Queens on Sunday and I'm already gagging over the thought. Don't be afraid to ask stupid questions. I'm a relative beginner to the shooting arts and God knows how many dumb posts I've made. The guys here are pretty friendly and helpful. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
