  1.    I’ll check the port size tomorrow, I’m not sure Colt ever made a mid gas on a short barrel.

       The KAC barrel I have isn’t too common of a configuration. (12.5 mid length gas) I’m just experimenting on this build hoping for the best, figured adjustable gas block was a good idea. I’v built ARs before but am definitely still a novice.

    no one could possibly feel the difference all things being equal, it's a placebo effect

    the way the rifle is set up will have far greater impact on felt recoil

       I’m more worried about reliable function in the 12.5 mid length. That’s why I’m throwing a SA adj gas block on it. 

     I do agree that balance definitely means way more, but controlling unnecessary gases and movement definitely helps.

    i think oregon is doing it already. pretty sure other states are too.

    the "fair" way to do it? vehicle weighs (for instance) 4500# curb weight with 7,000# GVW. take into account what the average fuel mileage would be for vehicles in that weight class. now you've got the average tax revenue lost due to that vehicle. add that lost revenue yearly to the registration cost. lets see how these people like their electric cars when the true cost hits em.

    I thought Oregon does a “mileages” tax. Last I read they wanted to install monitors into the car and you get taxed on the miles you drive. 


  4.    I just picked up a kak 12.5 middy for the same type of build. I’m waiting for Black Friday to gather the rest of the parts. I’ll let you know how it works out and or I’m always down to meet up for a range day. 

    From what I’m gathering from third party info is that the carbine gas system is more reliable, the 12.5 mid was allegedly built to run completely suppressed. I have read people have had no issues with a normal gasblock, but I’m probably going to throw an adjustable on just in case.

    Let me ask a different way, in hopes of getting a more direct answer.  If someone owned a 15-round mag in NJ with this device installed as instructed, prior to the >10-round restriction, would it be legal to possess and own in NJ under the new law?

     

     

    Yes, but only if you epoxy, rivet, blind pin etc... the baseplate shut, so becomes permanent.

    No he's saying that if you switch, make sure your new part is in hand so you can swap immediately. Dont be taking the gun out in public in unfinished form, or have it laying around in unfinished form in the rare event the police raid your home. 

    I agree if you’re going to change anything be ready to install the new equipment ASAP especially if it changes the classification of the weapon such as vfg or brace. Technically speaking while changing the parts you will be have an illegal weapon. If you don’t feel comfortable doing it or aren’t sure what you’re doing I suggest buying the parts and letting a local FFL do it

    Is anyone replaced trigger on these short other firearms? It is quiet stiff on Troy, I wish I could install something better. Is it legal to replace? 

    You can modify it how ever you want as long as you keep the brace and vertical hand grip and the overall length from buffer tube to barrel is 26”

    I'm eyeing the 10.5 version as well...  Looks sweet!

     

    Question... Why did you have the FH pinned?  Thought it was OK to leave it threaded

    With a 10.5 barrel and no pinned welded muzzle device you won’t hit the 26” overall length requirement. 

     


  9.     The firearm you have named is a .22caliber rifle. You won’t need a p2p(permit to purchase). They are only used when buying handguns. Yes will only need FID. No matter how you’re obtaining the rifle. You’ll need to go through a FFL(federal firearms dealer), and pay a transfer fee. The FFL will conduct the mandatory background check through NICS (National Instant Criminal Background Check System ). 

    Side note:

    That rifle in normal configuration isn’t NJ Legal. It has an adjustable stock and threaded barrel, “Two evil” features not allowed on a pistol gripped rifle. It would best for you to reach out to an NJ FFL to see if it can be modified to be legal here.
