VOAGC Range in Smithtown

Just a heads up - if you’re a former VOAGC member - the email with where to send 2026 dues and the online signup / waiver went out in email. Let me know if you didn’t get it.

Huge changes planned to make the club a lot more transparent after the last group dissolved.

Brookhaven

I took off Monday, thinking about going out to shoot at Brookhaven.
Anyone regularly shoot there? Crowded on Mondays?

M1911A1 and Nambu Type 14 - my two acquisitions thus far this year

Going for quality over quantity this year I guess. This time last year I was was up to 4 of an eventual 10 additions! Excited though as these are my first two true WW2 pistols.

I do have a military Beretta 1934 but it was made in 1947, a Spanish Astra 400 (neutral country), and a WW1 French Ruby that has some signs of WW2 use (hole in slide for holster disc). Not sure if I should count those or not. What do you think?

Magshack and do you number your mags?

So the guy at South Shore suggested that when you buy 1,000 round buy a mag if you can. Sort of factor it in.
Walther website has been sold out. As was South Shore. So I ordered 2 from Magshack for about $15 less per mag than either the website or South Shore.
I also pre paid for one from South Shore that should arrive this week.
I will now have a total of 5 so range days will be a little easier.
Question do you mark and number your mags? If so how? Paint pen or adhesive numbers?

A little rant

Yesterday I woke up a little late and didn’t get to the Nassau County Rifle and Pistol Range until 10 am. NO points available until 12. So I am going today.
Just a little frustrating. I know there are other ranges. But the convenience of being able to get there in 10 minutes keeps me going Allows me to hit the range quickly and with little to no planning.

Sullivan Act.

Are there any cases, currently, going against the Sullivan Act? How can a City be authorized to reject, State issued CCWs, that they even issue themselves? How can this stand in the face of Heller and Bruen?

This even ties into the whole drivers license “privilege “ vs CCW “const right” argument…. What about excessive costs? Another fingerprint cost, another $360+ renewal , another investigation into an already vetted license carrying citizen….

Hard to believe, a group of like minded folks, hasn’t come together and challenged this to conclusion. if I were a rich man, I’d hire Ms. B in a heartbeat, for everyone else’s benefit. if I could afford the jail time, and loss of all of my NYS res, and out of state non res LTC’s, I’d cross the city line, with a concealed hand gun, stand in “some street” where Hochul says it’s ok, and call the NYPD on myself, and force start this thing.

Another one

Found this one before I loaded it.
Most people go a long time. This is two from the same batch.
Otherwise the Fiocchi range dynamics shot fine.

CCW course when applying for pistol permit (Suffolk)

Hi, I’m unsure of whether i need the CCW course before applying for the pistol permit. If it’s easier to just do the CCW before applying as opposed to applying first then doing the CCW then I’d just do the CCW first. Can anyone confirm this? Thank you!

Targets

Where are you all buying targets?
For the small NRA ones I print and copy on letter sized paper.
I got a pack of 50 q targets on Amazon.
Just got the idpa/uspsa combos on there as well.
Also how are you carrying them back and forth to the range?

Suffolk Pistol Interview

Submitted my application back in October 2025. Finally got the call for my interview, going later today.

For those that have recently completed the process;

  1. is a wifi bill from verizon and acceptable utility bill for proof of address?
  2. did you need proof of employment? My investigator mentioned a work ID if applicable but the documents online all say I need a recent pay stub. I plan on bringing it regardless.
  3. I am using my passport as proof of residency/citizenship. Will it matter if my DL still shows an old address from Nassau County?
  4. Timeline from day of interview to getting my permit.

Thank you all.

First misfire

So I got my first misfire this past Saturday.
On my first box of Finocci 115 range dynamics.
Luckily I was trained in what to do during my CCW class.

Anyway here is something I thought it would take more time to see.

Holster wing expander???

Hey guys,

​

I recently recieved a light tuck holster from vedder and I love it, but im having 1 problem.

​

The claw that it comes with dosent really seem to be too too helpful with concealing. It does help a little bit, but I feel that i need something that is essentially bigger so that it can push my pistol farther into me than it currently is.....i apologize if im not explaining this great.

​

I wanted to see if anybody has any experience with making these claws longer essentially, maybe by using a shim or something??

​

I also have that foam wedge on the back but it only helps so much.

​

Ive seen the company LAS concealment has a stackable wing, but would that work on a different brands holster?

​

Any help would be appreciated.
