    It's right up there, but it's so hard to choose the single dumbest gun law in NJ. Would it be... Needing a permit to purchase in order to retrieve your consignment gun from the dealer? BB guns are defined and regulated as firearms? You can't have a bayonet lug on a semiauto? You must pin an adjustable stock on a semiauto, but it doesn't much matter where you pin it? Slingshots are illegal? You can buy, sell, use, and transport to the range hollow points, but you can't move them to your new house? That thing on the end of the barrel of your semiauto may or may not be legal, depending on some unspecified diameter of the hole in the end, and what the manufacturer happens to call it in their marketing materials. You can't stop to pick up a gallon of milk at the A&P on your way home from the range if you are transporting a handgun? Or something else entirely?

    Most remakes of older movies suck IMO. Bronson's portrayal is a hard act to follow but I think Willis can pull it off.

    That's probably the dumbest gun law i've heard of in NJ. So the FFL doesn't need a permit to take the firearm but for you to get it back, you need a permit. Pretty stupid buttt this issss NJ!

    There are only 2 reasons to pay for an expensive lower. Neither of which is practical, or has anything to do with quality. And by expensive I mean anything more than $100 (Spikes, Ruger, etc). The first being cosmetics, we all like stuff that looks cool, I get it. The 2nd being resale price, and if you're concerned about resale you shouldn't be building an AR. Any delusions about this or that fancy AR lower being better are just that. And if you're paying that money for a billet lower, you're actually paying extra for a structurally inferior part. A mil-spec lower is a mi-spec lower is a mil-spec lower.

    Having owned both the C39V2 and the SAM7, my advice is to go with the SAM if you really want a milled AK pattern rifle. I've put about 700 rounds through my SAM and I've had zero issues. I put a Primary Arms 1-6x scope on it using an RS Regulate mount since the earlier post that I added to this thread and it gets consistent 2.5" groups at 200 yards with Wolf and Golden Tiger ammo (with the occasional flier that is probably my fault). It's become one of my favorite guns to take to the range Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    OK. Some tips and explanations. 1) Have you read the fornt half of the lee manual? Cause it explains a lot well. 2) Lee doesn't generate load data, they aggregate load data form powder manufacturers, bullet makers, etc. These sources have different thresholds for safety margin, use different test barrel fixtures, may be reporting about different generations of a given named powder, etc. IMO in this day and age, jsut go to the powder manufacturer's load data page and work from there first. Sanity check it with the bullet manufacturer or other load manual if you are pushing the high end. 3) Check if it is jacketed or jacketed hollow point. Bullet construction affects overall length of the bullet, and surface area of the bearing surface. Longer bullet, less case volume, higher pressures with less gas. More beating surface means more friction, which means more force working against the bullet moving, whcih means higher pressures, which means lower max charge wieght. Lead forms a seal and is kind of sticky when put under those pressures, which is why it has lower max charge than slick jacketed projectiles. 4) In pistol loads, 1 grain is a lot. I load a lot of plated. IMO you do the following. All are to powder manufacturer data which I find to be the most frequently updated and most conservative. My experience applies to 9x19mm, .40S&W, and .45 acp. Raineir - load to lead data. Berrys normal - load to lead data. Berrys double struck - can load close to jacketed, I'll use similar weight JHP data for a sanity check on max load. Xtreme - load to jacketed data. bulletworks - load to jacketed data. powerbond - load to jacketed data then ask yourself why you are paying jacketed prices for plated. I stick to either extreme or bulletworks for plated these days. Their plating is thick and their lead is harder than the competition. And the price is right. They are very similar, but not the same. As a note to trusting the powder manufacturers: 124gr load for CFE from hodgdon is 4.9 start 5.5 max, and it's for their 4" test fixture using berry's 124 plated. You should be safe within that entire range substituting extreme's 124.

    I started with 3.5 and worked all the way to max load to see what I could get minor power factor with a little play so ~130pf. What specific sport are you reloading for? Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    I've only taken it out twice. It's a great gun -- very accurate, almost no recoil -- but IMO a bit over-built. (Note I am not an expert on guns). Plus the week after I bought it the manufacturer had a sale In retrospect I should have waited for a more retro-style with a milled receiver and a wood stock, which is more my style as an SKS enthusiast. I've seen tons of ads for AK-style rifles lately. It's a buyer's market. Ask around the forums for testimonials.

    I would get a Knights stripped lower. One left here: https://www.smallarmsales.com/product-p/22360.htm I'm partial to using a Surefire brake to pin up a 14.5" upper and running a Warden optionally. I will run a SOCOM Suppressor when I leave this state without having to worry about unpinning the brake.

    Insanity runs rampant in the State House in Trenton. Maybe it's something in the water.

    Left late. Didn't do a drive by. My curiosity is piqued though. Crazy people are sometimes fun to watch. Lol

    OK range report. Shot it on Sunday with the peep sights. Flawless function with over 200 rounds through it. The wife however hated the sights. She also shoots lefty so a long sleeve shirt is in order as the spent casings kept bouncing off her right arm. I put a cheapo rim fire scope on that I had sitting around and at 25 yards the thing is a tack driver. Fired over 200 rounds CCI mini mag, Federal Match and Eley Match. It only had one failure to fire with the Eley. I think the wife will be pleased with the scope. It really is a fun rifle to shoot.

    Hillary’s Urgent Request Upon hearing the awful news that a member of the Supreme Court had passed away, Hillary phoned the president’s office. It was just past midnight. “I need to talk to the president, it’s an emergency!”, exclaimed Hillary. After some cajoling, President Trump’s assistant agreed to wake him up. “What is it that’s so important that it can’t wait until morning?”, bellowed Trump. “A Supreme Court Judge just died, and I want to take his place,” begged Hillary. “Well, it’s OK with me if it’s OK with the mortuary,” replied the President.

    And on that note, all I can say is "Die, Ruthie, die!"

    And if we get a 5-4 or 6-3 in SCOTUS we will prevail.

    Jersey law as written says "justifiable need" to be granted a CCW. NR states you have to be eligible, aren't we all eligible if we have a clean record? I believe this is where the conflict will begin.
