  1. Quick answer, NO! If you have in your possession, any complete AR or a lower, constructive intent comes into play. You could put the the upper with the bayonet lug and flash hider on any lower in your possession and have an illegal rifle! Nobody I ever heard of got busted for that! Don't worry about it. Have the upper shipped to you and Dremel off the lug and replace the flash hider with a muzzle brake! You may also take the upper to a gunsmith to do the work if you are uncomfortable doing it yourself. PS. That upper is NOT illegal to possess. As long as you have no lower to attach to it in your car with the upper, you can drive around all day long and not break any law!
  2. My understanding is that the PI covers FPC and all its members (regardless of where they live). Not home at the moment. Will try later to site a specific reference.

  4. Big Shout Out to Shooters! Thank you! Instructor Paul was great and the whole requal process is a breeze!
  5. Given the two Preliminary Injunctions issued in the last several weeks covering members of FPC and NAGR(I am a member of both.), I have removed the "Pistol Storage Device" that I had put on my Troy Other and have reattached its original brace. (If curious, refer to my detailed PSD writeup I previously posted on NJGUNFORUMS.). I look forward to my next range trip with it. p.s. Members of SAF and GOA a may also still be fine based on their prior injunctions. However, I lost track of the status of those.
  6. As long as it’s advertised as a muzzle brake you should be gtg. Either way they will ship it as it’s not a regulated part. It’s a shame we’ll never be able to slap a silencer on these rifles while in NJ. Your fellow shooters to your left and right will love u with the muzzle brake attached.
  7. As Johnny B stated. I’ve ordered from Palmetto State, Brownells and Primary Arms and they ship the uppers to NJ w/o issues. Just the lowers need to go to the FFL.
  8. The SELLER is not involved in the purchaser's 4473/NICS call.
  9. Just proof of YOUR identity so the transfer can be recorded in the FFL's bound book.
  10. Make a slight detour to Belfont PA. The sheriff there will have you in and out in 15 minutes with your permit. Then they'll apologize for the wait.
  11. That could help. Motels are often less secure than hotels, but only a motel would offer the option to be that close to my car. If I thought I'd get enough rest, I could also schedule to arrive right at check in time, sleep until 11 pm or so, then get back on the road, not leaving the car unattended during the hours when theft is more likely. I've got CCW permits good clear across the route, except for Illinois and Pennsylvania, and I know I could get the PA permit without too much trouble.
  12. It's a bolt-action rifle (single shot/no magazine) built on a Remington 700 action with a 31" Bartlein bull barrel and set into an Elisio chassis system... it's chambered in 6.5 Creedmore... and it's got a Jewell trigger that's set to a few ounces of pull. That's what it came with, and I added a Vortex Golden Eagle scope to it. (Forgive me if I worded anything incorrectly... I'm still learnin' some of this this new-to-me rifle lingo. ). But basically, it's a gun designed very specifically for F-Open and/or benchrest shooting, because after careful study and trying out others' rifles, I figured that those are the 2 rifle sports I want to pursue. Oh, and it's for mid-range distances (so, roughly 300 to 600 yrds, though this gun is very accurate out to 1000 and probably beyond. I think if you want to go really long distance though, to be competitive you are more likely shooting 7mm caliber? Others can correct me if I'm wrong.) F-Open and benchrest are both very gear-intensive sports - yes, the gun is big and heavy, but it's designed for a big heavy rifle rest, and a big heavy rear sandbag - so all of that weight is supported. Because of the greater ease of shooting, the targets are appropriately shrunken down from other precision rifle sports at similar distances. You have to be shooting well under 1 MOA to do well. The upside (for me personally) is that this type of shooting seems to mitigate my weaknesses: my lack of upper body strength is not an issue, because the gun's weight is supported... and I've found my cross-dominance which has sometimes vexed me is suddenly not a problem either, because the scope is aligned with my right eye, and I'm right-handed. Also, I don't have the fastest or most graceful gross motor coordination in the world, lol (which is why, I think, I struggle with shotguns). In 10-plus years of (admittedly casual shooting) and trying out different things... so far, F-Open (laying on a mat, being very still, and taking careful precisely aimed shots) is BY A LANDSLIDE the most "natural feeling" shooting I've ever done. The few times I shot it from a bench was even easier. And I'm a SMITTEN KITTEN as a result. Obsessed! Money has flown out of my savings account at a speed I can barely comprehend. And I'm not even fully set up with reloading gear yet. That's the next financial hurdle to cross. Precision shooting is VERY expensive! (And I'm not even at the highest end of gear. I'm seeing people with $10,000+ custom rifles... $6,000+ scopes... all kinds of fancy electronic gadgetry. Yikes! I'm not close to that). Other than the big dent in my savings, the downside (again, just for me personally) is that not only is the gun itself is heavy and cumbersome (it's 4 ft long and weighs about 20 lbs), but there's a lot of ancillary gear, and all of that is heavy & cumbersome, too. I have a fancy rest with a joystick called a Seb Neo... it's like maneuvering a small engine block, lol. "Getting ready to go shooting" when I'm heading to my indoor range with a pistol is as simple as checking to make sure I have ammo and then throwing the range bag over my shoulder... done! But with this gear?... oh, Lord... it's like I'm preparing to invade a 3rd world nation. (Or, if you 've ever seen people with a newborn baby pack for a weekend trip... yeah, pretty much the same thing). There's just a TON of stuff to pack into the car - some of it (because I'm a weakling), I need to roll out on a small dolly, all bungeed up, etc. It takes me at least 10-15 minutes just to assemble the gear, load it on the dolly, bungee it up, navigate the porch steps, lift it into the trunk, repeat the next load, etc. But it's sooo worth it... because once I'm shooting, the ENTIRE process focuses on things I am pretty good at (trigger coordination, remaining VERY still, etc.) The only thing that remains to be seen is how I'll do with windage (haven't really shot at long enough distances or windy enough weather yet to know that). But I figure anything can be learned. And after the money I've spent, there's NO WAY I'm not going to learn to do that well! I'm very happy though. Grinning from ear to ear actually. After all this time, I feel like I've finally found my niche in shooting... and I'm having a total BLAST! I already have NEXT YEAR's calendar filled with match dates. Like I said... obsessed! The lesson for me (and perhaps for others still exploring?)... is that there are a LOT of shooting sports, and you should really explore as many as you can. There's 1 or 2 that will undoubtedly fit you better than others. I'm just sorry it took me a whole decade to figure out mine. (Sorry for the long-winded tangent...)
  13. The Democrat's would loose their minds.
  14. I have a similar problem with guitars.
  15. The FFL needs to run a background not necessarily put the firearm through their book…
