    Well, the options were NY, NJ or western CT. 

    NJ was the best of the 3. I have to live within a 90 minute drive of JFK Airport. 

    Shockingly it's actually lower taxes than VA. 

    OK, but in all seriousness, consider another job then. Every one of those states you mentioned are completely lost to lunatics, that have zero regard for you or your families safety. They are all buried in the debt of state retirements and give away somebody else's money programs that are not sustainable. How it ends is anybodies guess, but one thing for sure, its already not pretty and going to get a lot worse. Is that where you want to live?


  2. 1301 is 6+1 3 inch shells, not 2 3/4. You could put probably 12 mini's in it, wouldn't function properly, but could do it. This doesn't make it illegal for sale in NJ. Have one, hanging on the wall right now.... Not the hand grip tactical version obviously. and it has 3 inch shells, 6 plus one ghost, I don't like chambered rounds.

    A coupler is neither a magazine nor a gun part.  Not concerned in the least!

    Doesn't matter what you think it is, does it? I can say its attached to a magazine so now its a gun part, lock you up, and its your job to prove I'm wrong. That is New Jermany justice..... and you admitted you made it on line.

    were you able to get some yet? If not, I would be happy to print a few for you.

    Are you concerned that your making parts for a firearm (isn't the magazine considered part of the firearm in NJ)? What are the NJ legal consequences?


  5. Might as well buy ammo at 1.20/pc and shoot it , than trying to buy already fired brass on for 0.95/pc on gunbroker. But thanks anyway.

    Seems like r/reloading says necking and trimming 6.5 Grendel is the way to go for price and availability, if you want to give that a whirl

    Yea, I could do that, already shoot those, a ton, my favorite Ar15 round BTW.

    Models have Lee project to reach top wind speed of 205 mph.. It will be the highest reading of any storm ever in the Atlantic
     

    In recorded history... get it right. You, nor anyone else has any idea if one hasn't been stronger, even in the last 500 years, let alone all of history.

    What distance were you shooting out to? What optic as well?

    Only at 100 yards so far, been working up loads for it. I just have a 3-9x44 on it for now. I typically use an inexpensive scope on a build until it proves its worth something better. It does, but I'm working on other projects at the moment. 

    Grendel should be good out to 300, but haven't got around to trying that out yet. My handloads are pretty close to the 2475 fps I get with the 123gr  Hornady Black factory stuff. Its a better round than say the 300 blk or the 7.62x39R. Neither of which are worth a darn at 300 yards.

    They're actually priced very modestly in comparison. This may be a good route for me. 

    Yes, used one on my last build, with grendel hunter 19" fluted barrel (target crown) and their handguard. Shoots one moa with hornady ammo, and sub moa with my handloads. Brass is hard to come by, but started seeing 6 ARC brass back in stock, so 6.5 Grendel isn't far behind.

    I'm going to go to YouTube University and see how hard it is to build an upper. 

    Maybe I can keep the cost down and get the best parts that way. 

    Personally like Stag Arms Upper receivers, they are tight to the barrel requiring a little heat to install barrel.

    Might be overkill, I've had great shooters that weren't as tight.

  10. Have two of their barrels, both are nail drivers. No issues. Also have one of their handguards, very good product. I like to build my own stuff. Both have no muzzle break btw, so no welding.

  11. Maybe somebody can come up with an option that attaches to the shoulder and not the gun. A pad with a plastic insert that directs the end of the tube.

    something like that. think of it round, like a funnel to direct/slide the end of the buffer tube into the center.

    make is rainbow colored and see if they want to make that illegal.

  12. Per the title, looking for a 1903 Springfield from the WW2 era, earlier is fine. Primarily I want one to shoot, so a solid barrel and rifling is required. Even one with a new barrel that isn't from the era is fine, again looking to shoot it, not display it. Decent stock as well, no problem with blemishes, just no cracks or repairs.

    Thanks
