Legality of having a drill rifle shipped to your door?

Recommended Posts

So I'm looking into my next project, and its going to be reactivating a 1903A3 Drill Rifle. They've been deactivated by having the firing pin welded over, and a rod welded into the barrel, or having a hole vut into the barrel to make them unfireable. By all ATF standards, these are not firearms. Does NJ need these to be shipped to an FFL, or are they OK to ship to your door?

How is it not regulated. If it still has a functional reciever?

Rod and pin welded is not functional.

If that were the case, welding a muzzle brake would not pass legality either. Welding something I believe is making something as one. So if I perceive it correctly, that receiver pretty much becomes a block of steel.

Years ago when they were considering confiscating ARs, they gave 3 options. 1-sell gun out of state that can legally have them, 2-fill the barrel with concrete or lead, 3- turn it in for 50 bux.

 

Surprisingly, that considering the lower of an AR is the important piece that makes it a gun, they had no concern over it.

 

I'm sure others will have different scenarios of classification. See what they say too. :)

Although looking at it from a prosecutorial perspective, absent a confession or video tape of the work actually being done, it would be impossible to prove that the work that transformed the deactivated receiver into a working receiver was done in New Jersey or elsewhere, when it was done or who did it. Unless you put all of this info on the internet.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
