Thank you.

Particularly curious to know your opinion. For example would you sell a riveted mag to a customer in NJ? Or too grey, not worth the risk?

Correct. A pin can be drifted in and out. A rivet must be destroyed in order to be removed. I would say that is "permanent" but I'm curious as to opinions.

http://jesticearms.com/10-30-Magazines/10-30-Magpul-M3-300-Blackout-PMAG-AR15-Front-Rivet Opinions on legality of something like this? Magazine has a rivet stuck in the body, preventing it from loading more than 10 rounds. Base plate comes off, but follower and spring cannot come out of the magazine because rivet is blocking them in. Rivet is aluminum and would need to be drilled out to be removed.

I'd say a 10 round sized steel (not a pinned 30) for space saving and durability reasons. That way you can also still service the magazine by undoing the floorplate.

About 9-10 years ago a bunch of FFL in NJ were selling a "US 1 Carbine" or some kind of name like that. Same thing as M1 Carbine but not called M1 Carbine which as we know is banned by name. The logic being that AR-15 is banned by name but XM-15 or whatever is fine as long as only 1 feature. Lots of people started calling NJSP "Daddy daddy can I pleeeease have the US 1 Rifle???? Please???" Guess what, all of of a sudden they weren't for sale anymore! So yeah people, stop calling. Detachable magazine means you can push a button or lever and it comes out of the rifle. If it has a damn sheared pin or the part is literally shaped in a way that the magazine doesn't come out, NO it's not detachable. You wanna be paranoid? Here's something to be paranoid about. It only takes a couple minutes of work and a little piece of metal to make your semi-auto in a fully semi automatic if you catch my drift. Should everyone now fear the feds because you own an AR-15 and some tools? Of course not. So stop worrying about stupid stuff.

This would be a great idea honestly. You could lock in a magazine and then use something like the product below to load it: https://www.meanarms.com/products/detail/ma-loader-for-ar15 We all know how things are going to go here in the next few years, so I think more people should start looking into stuff like this, rather than those atrocious and unsafe spur grips or monster man grips. For people into 7.62x39 rifles, the SKS and vz 58 (Liberty model) are also great options. The vz 58 is internally and permanently locked and can have whatever features you want. 10 round strippers load it very easily. It's also quite easy to turn most stamped receiver AK-style rifles into a configuration like how the factory Saiga rifles came into the USA. The linkage system is very simple and could be easily replicated.

Why blame the scumbag when you can blame an inaninate object and advance your political agenda instead?

15 round magazines are garbage everywhere except NJ, and soon to be garbage here too. If you're going to spend hundreds a year paying for vaults, or time effort and gasoline bringing them to someone's house in a other state, at that point why not just store regular size magazines there? Prices are at all time lows, almost anything is only $10-15. If I had a friend in Florida, I'd say here's a hundred bucks, get me one of those PSA mag deals and stick em in your closet for me.

Makes you wonder if civil disobedience is more effective than lawsuits in the pursuit of civil rights.

Why don't they just bring back the poll tax too?

Let me blow your mind, a rifle in NJ also needs to have a detachable magazine in order to be subject to the "evil feature game" Meaning if you have something like a vz. 58 Liberty model, you can have folding stock, pistol grip, bayonet lug, etc. etc. There's also an AR-15 fixed magazine variant as well.

Union PD already has a private outdoor range a block away behind the Home Depot, but good to see they're excited anyway.

Super pumped because it's a shooting range on rt 22 in Union. Super worried because it's a shooting range on rt. 22 in Union. Cautiously optimistic!

I just want to point out to all the people clamoring for "Safe deposit boxes" and "friends out of state" to hide their 15 round mags. Your 15 round mags are junk everywhere but NJ, and soon to be junk in NJ. If you're storing mags out of state why not just get regular, standard capacity magazines for you "out of state" address? They're like $10-11 each right now. All this hot air over junk.

Depends what kind of gun. Stuff like AK, Mosin, SKS, pump and bolt action etc. why waste your time cleaning the action more than once every few years? Brake grease will last decades in there. I run a bore snake w/ WD40 through after the range trip but even that is probably overkill. No need to waste money and time on expensive cleaning products and fancy rituals. That said if you have something fragile, collector's item, etc. then care for it accordingly. EDIT: I've found the chrome moly (grey) brake grease to be the best lube. I have two firearms which are going on 9 years now without new grease in the action.

You can easily block most polymer and metal AR/AK type mags by simply drilling a hole or two and crushing in a pop rivet. You can buy a pop rivet gun cheaply at any hardware store. Less than $20 and yo can block all the mags you want. Plenty of info on calguns and other boards with specific measurements if you don't feel like measuring yourself. And don't worry the rivet gun is lever action and only fires one rivet at a time so no laws affecting assault rivet guns (for now),

No, it's OK to go there. A person's culture and upbringing have a huge effect on their beliefs. Just like some guy from the rural midwest may have a different attitude on guns than a Bronx native. So too, does someone from a country like India, or one of the many South/Central American nations where only the paramilitary and drug lords have weapons. This huge demographic shift is a large part of changing attitudes on gun laws in many cities and states over the last twenty years. You can certainly correlate % of people from certain racial groups with support for strict gun laws, and as their birth rates continue to outpace white birth rates the disparity will continue to grow larger and its effects more far reaching. An exception to this, I would say, would be people from Eastern Europe. Coming from former Communist nations you would expect similar attitudes on guns but the Eastern European people I have met generally tend to be not only very pro-gun, but also in favor of less government, less handouts, individual freedom, etc.

What's next is also already underway. Disarm, sedate, and replace.

Aww man, why did you call? You're supposed to pay $300 and sit in a seminar all day for Nappen to scare you!

Why be a force for change and use your legal work to try and win court battles for NJ gun owners when you can just scared the hell out of them and profit for yourself? I can't stand Nappen because he's just another parasite profiting off of NJ's unconstitutional gun laws.

I get what you're saying 100%. But it's not me that has made ergonomic features and safe ammunition massive crimes. As far as I'm concerned those laws are total and utter bullcrap. I think it's a waste of money to arrest, bring to trial, and imprison an individual for such an offense. I think there is also a moral objection to destroying someone's life over an ergonomic feature or other such nonsense. However, if the state is going to do that to people, le them do it. I would not break these laws myself, ever. But if someone else is, I am not an LEO. I am not sworn to enforce these laws. It's none of my business and whatever these hypothetical people are or are not doing is illegal or not, it's none of my business.

Yay! Lawsuits. Not.

Ain't no lawsuits gonna save anybody. Sorry guys, not pessimist, just realist. There's been anti gun laws on the books 25+ years without a single legal challenge to this day.

Gotcha. Looks like some IRL clickbait for SHOT show though. Most of the country is already "hacking" the NFA with the new "pistols" of everything from ARs and AKs to Scorpions and PTRs so why bother with the drawback of a smoothbore. But you already know that. We just miss out on all the fun in NJ.
