ok... since in the next few days I will recieve my license.
and i know in NJ I can only purchase long guns out of state.

1. is it legal to purchase rifles online?
2. i went on airgundepot.com and saw that there are sooo many different models of the 34. such as the 34p... just black. I get that. but then there is the 34P Pro, Meisterschütze, and Meisterschütze Pro. I understand what compact is. thats just a given.

3. If I were going to spend alittle more money then the 34 range what would you recomend?

Perhaps I can answer 2 and 3 for you:

2. 31 and 34 are all the same models. The Meisterschütze and the MPro are shorter versions that seem to come with scopes. The shorter version are STILL front heavy, especially because of those cocking aides. The 31 Panther is just as heavy as the 34. Just plain ol'marketing: Saying it's a different model can be considered a company generated USP.

3. Going up a notch in spending I'd buy a Weihrauch, in other words, a German made Beeman. Wink The HW85, 95 and 98 are basically the same rifle with different stocks (same idea as mentioned before), the HW50 is a bit less powerfull. Then there's also the HW80. I'm not sure by what names these models come over there, but with some googling you should be able to find out.

Umm.. first you should be able to buy any kind of firearm out of state.

Second, you can't have it shipped to NJ, unless you want to pay a FFL holder to receive it.

Third, go to PA.

We go to Cabela's. I think there are a couple small shops in Croydon and Bristol, but have never been in them.

Yeah, that's a .22 rifle. You don't wanna go for the .177 because the piston doesn't like light pellets. Wink

Personally I like scopes with an AO/focus ring that allows you to sharpen the image at different distances. Some scopes have sidefocus but those are often the higher grade ones.

That scope does not have an adjustable objective.

That particular scope is a compact so as the reviews say you may have some problems with eye relief since it is short thus leaving you little room to move the scope with in the rings to set the eye relief. I am ordering 2 of the following lepers scopes one for my wife and one for me as I think they are the best available and are only $44.95.
