  1. I think the XRAIL went for around 700 bucks? I have a Versamax and I'm trying to dip my toes into Open 3gun... Maybe I should just get it over with and get a Dissident Arms, but if you can top a Versamax off with 20+ rounds, I'm not sure there's much of an advantage at normal matches.

    Don't forget, the five boroughs of NYC (Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and SI)

    are the worst - if you live one mile from NYC in Westchester or Nassau, and have a

    permit, it's NOT honored a mile from your home in NYC.

     

    NY cops are not allowed to carry in NYC.     :eatdrink:

     

    Be sure to find out the rules for NYC and not the surrounding counties.

     

    When I moved to Ulster County (80 miles north of the Bronx), I was happy

    to find our local judge firmly believed that every good guy should carry

    a concealed weapon    :)   Don't know if he's still there.

    I've unfortunately accepted that the only legal way I'll get to shoot matches is to store my gun outside of the city, which sucks... but it is what it is. I'll be here for four years so it's either that or no shooting at all. Hoping to work out something with LIPSA where they can let me store a gun/mags there. We shall see.

    Talk to the people at LIPSA - they're easy to talk to, and very knowledgeable.

     

    You might want to travel a little bit, out to PA - your GA gear is all good in PA   :)  

     

    There used to be USPSA matches near Poughkeepsie (Dutchess County Pistol Assoc) -

    not sure what they're doing now.   

     

    You might want to move across the river to NJ - not too much better, but better

    than NYC - that's about as bad as it gets   :(   And, it's not a bad commute.

    Is your school uptown or downtown ?   Uptown, you take the GWB, and downtown

    the Lincoln Tunnel.   During non-rush hour traffic, neither is bad.

    I'm uptown. I'm stuck here for at least a year but I'll keep commuting from NJ in mind.

     Ton of steel challenge events at blackrock, not too far from NYC in NY state.    ( assuming you have a car ) ;

    Dutchess does USPSA and steel challenge.  I was there yesterday 

    http://www.dcpistol.org

     

    NJ events are also prevalent.

    The rules for rifles vs pistols are very different in NYC.  You might want to major in PCC and rimfire rifle;   There are plenty of hunters in NYC.   LIPSA is a good club and will have some info.

     

     

    No car, but for a once a month thing, I'd be willing to get a rental. Good excuse to buy a PCC, I'll do some research on what's legal up here. Thanks for the tip. 

  4. Hey guys, 

     

    I just got out of the army and moved to NYC for school. The city actually isn't that bad except I had to leave all my guns in Georgia. I was planning on brining a few up and shooting matches again but I can't even decipher the laws and even cops can't give me consistent answers... 
     

    1) Ok so I understand that I'm basically shafted on owning any sort of gun legally within the city. Does anyone know if there's a USPSA-focused range that will allow some sort of storage for a pistol or two?

    2) I'm getting told by some people that my normal mags are good to bring up... I just can't load more than 10 rounds. But that sounds... retarded but if it's true it'd be very convenient. Is that correct?

    3) I live on manhattan if anyone has any recommendations for where to go, maybe some people to talk to, cause I think part of the issue is I'm surrounded by people that have no idea what they're talking about when it comes to this stuff. 

    4) What's the most competitive division in NY? I'm guessing limited 10? Or are people shooting open/CO with 10 round mags? 

    Thanks y'all, 
    Jeff
