As, for the HP ammo, it is not lawful for civilians or retired LEO's to carry or use HP ammo in NJ. If you ever plan on carrying a concealed weapon with a CCP in NJ, a 9MM without HP ammo is not a good choice, IMO. I see no reason to use HP ammo in PA for target practice. The only reason to purchase and/or use HP ammo is for self defense.
If all your going to do is target practice a .22 pistol like the Ruger shown, would do the job at a lot less expense. You might also consider a high end pellet pistol like the Walther, for practice and /or fun.

I agree with the airgun and the .22 pistol, but I'd like to get something that also acts as a tool for self defense later on down the road. That might sound a little ridiculous coming from a non military member but I feel that having that safety net there, would be nice to have at home, and while I'm at it, I'd rather buy one gun that I can take to the range for target shooting and self defense rather then buying 2 guns. One for target shooting and one for self defense.
Granted the ammunition would add up in price, but one needs to become familiar with the weapon they are shooting.
And I know it sounds a little crazy for a soon to be 21 year old being excited to buy a gun, but I've always been a mechanical person and guns have always interested me. I enjoy going to the range and I'd really just like to stop renting a gun and finally have my own to save money on renting and something to call my own.
