I think your best bet is Bridgeportshootingrange.com
The Norwalk shooting range has been closed for a while now and don't even have a clue of when it's suppose to re-open.

Just have her watch NEWS 12 (if you have cablevision) on a daily basis or any local news for that matter.

Thanks for the range report. I might be getting a 1911 itch, which was brought on by my first and very recently acquired kimber pro carry (haven't even shot it yet) and your pics and write up!

I just heard about this the other day. It made my day when I heard it. Although Scott was never a douche to me directly the way he treated all the other customers made me feel awkward when I was in there. I can't wait to stop in and check it out.

A ton of 9mm would be 224,000,000 grains, I believe. That would be about 77,778 rounds of 115 grainers...1555 boxes? (not including the packaging, of course!) definitely not 1555 boxes :oops: but the most I've seen in about 8-10 months. There were probably 50 boxes of 9mm....... I have to add that ...

walmart on Connecticut Avenue in Norwalk had tons of 9mm, WWB and Blazer.

They had a few boxes of 45, 40, and various rifle rounds.

This was around 7pm (Friday July 31st)

Good luck!

Do any of you guys use a silicone cloth on your Glocks?

I recently added a G26 to the family and they gave me a free silicone cloth with it..............

Yea, that's what I need CTSix.

I was in Hansen's place a few months ago and I recall seeing a sign that said $75 for a transfer. It would kind of defeat the purpose of ordering thru the internet, I was hoping to find someone that was considerable less.

Thanks anyway

Hello,

I was wondering if any of you guys (or gals) have any recommendations for a FFL, preferably in Fairfield County and reasonably priced.

I noticed that there is a link here, but I sent an email and no response.

Thank you.

Just a heads up

Walmart in Stratford had about 10 boxes of WWB .40 and one box of
357 Sig.


Couldn't find any 9mm though.

Thanks guys. I actually have my PP (Pistol Permit). I meant (what do I need) as far as paperwork. I've done some more searching and found two forms that (I guess) must be filled out. Now as far as "calling it in." who do you call into? The deal for the gun I wanted to buy fell thru, but it...

What's up fellas,

I did a search and could come up with anything.

But what do I need, if anything, if I'm buying a pistol FTF here in connecticut?

Thanks in advance, I appreciate it!
