I’d love to blame it on him but that ban has been in affect for many years .... he’s still a dickhead though .... it’ll only get worse . As for the m1carbine They’re a blast to shoot . Atleast it’s still in the family !

Congrats to your buddy ! It’s on my list of eventual hunts !

I’ll never be able to own one while living in this communist state , but one day I will own a wwII paratrooper m1 carbine. I learned to shoot on my uncles m1 carbine in Maine , and I try to shoot it every time I’m there . It just has a special place in my heart.

This , I was just about to edit my original post . I’m not sure what her experience is with pistols , so start out there. The only thing I will say is , out here , anyone who comes all the way out ... is up to no good . They’ve already made the decision to do no good . While not thinking stopping power , to get used to Firearms is a great idea ... at some point you need to think it . Would I want to get shot with a .22 ? Hell no .... but I’m not up to no good , or on drugs , or crazy (the last one can be debated)

Tom , I’ll bring down my smith , and you can see if she likes it , it’s my conceal carry . Take her to a good shop and let her hold them and see what she likes the best , then from there some places you can rent them and fire them . Find what’s comfortable to her and she can get used to loading / firing / unloading . if you’ve got your FID card , from there you (I believe this is the case now) apply for a pistol permit online and get printed , etc . We used to be able to go right down to the station and do it .

Ok I composed myself . I had 15 deer behind me in one field , I was watching two does on the next property . One went running behind me , as I watched her , I hear out infront of me running . I picked up the 220 and settled the pins and squeezed one off . She went 70 yards and tipped over. It’s been a horrible season in the deer woods for me , and the freezer was empty , this one will do . edit this is also finally my first NJ deer .

Boom

Out in 48 . First time deer hunting in what feels like a while . I saw two does , and one large bodied deer for a split second , unsure what it was . Hopefully I can connect with something tonight . Good luck everyone .

I’m in the same boat as you , Im new to this and really haven’t had anyone to show me the ropes . Went on a few hunts with a few buddies and then , I found myself on my own with a buddy whose just as new as I am . I don’t have a boat or any spots coastal to help you , but I’m hoping someone can help you out . I’ve got a few spots for goose here in Burlington & ocean county ,but Canada ends on Wednesday here . Maybe can set something up in the future.

If it was a normal day with normal scheduled jobs , I would have . But I promised this client a 7am start today .... he was okay with me being late but I couldn’t leave him hanging .

I left from exit 7 on the turnpike at 515 .... I just got onto my first job, in Staten Island at 930. Usually what would have been about an hour and 15 mins took over four ....

If you get in a jam and get permission to hunt it , I live next town over , and hunt chesterfield in a few locations , if you need a foxpro , I’ve got one you can borrow. edit . never mind . You have one

Stoeger 3500 with the factory turkey choke and longboard xr. Hope to finally harvest my first . Last year we would call them just about into range , and something out of my control would push them off .

I haven’t tried the 2.0 yet . I used the original , #2 for duck last year and it was great . Patterned great , no issue . I went over to 3-1/2” bb for goose and my gun and my buddies gun hated it . Failures to eject were common . I’d switch to other 3-1/2 bb and non issue . It’s sucked because it patterned great out of my gun and it would hammer birds very well , but our guns just didn’t like ejecting them .

Out in 48 But for a goose hunt . Slow morning . One snow goose down though .
