ATF finalizes rules for Stabilizing Braces
If that extends past the buffer tube, you're probably going to have to argue that in front of a judge if you get caught. I'd like to see an UPDATED letter from the ATF from this year saying that the Thordsen Customs Buffer Tube Cover + Cheek pad is still legal and would not be considered a shoulderable stock. The letter they are still going by is several years old IIRC.

Which org to support to fight for our 2A rights in NJ.
This is why it pays to be a member of these organizations and to donate. FPC members are covered by the injunction against the ATF's Pistol Brace rule while the FPC fights it in court for us. See below on how to join the FPC.

Ayoob On Carrying With A Chambered Live Round
I have a XDS with grip safety. A simple adjustment of my hand releases the grip safety while still securely holding the firearm to safely and slowly re-holster while looking it in. Basically slide my thumb down to touch my middle finger on the grip, which moves the web of my hand off the grip safety. My fingers (excluding thumb and web) and everything else remain in the same position, but the grip safety is engaged.

Ayoob On Carrying With A Chambered Live Round
You would think that more guns marketed for CCW would have grip safeties then. Easy to holster without engaging the grip safety, allowing you to fix an issue with clothing or whatever before the gun goes bang accidently.

NY AG sues gun accessory manufacturer for "aiding Buffalo shooter"
Hopefully this won't be an issue soon as NY (and NJ and CA and OR, etc) unconstitutional gun laws get the smack down from the courts. Show me historical tradition from 1789 of gun laws that limited the capacity a firearm could use, or the shape of its grip, or the length of the barrel, etc.

Rifle lights
I have a bunch of OLights. They do get warm and the batteries don't last long at high lumens. But they are easily rechargeable and I've never had an issue. The laser is just a backup and also helps with aligning the RDS. The Pro R is for long guns and have no issues with with a ton of rounds of 5.56. The remote switch is really nice. Makes it easy to toggle on and off between shots without having to adjust your grip or move your hand. Just squeeze. Your sight picture does not change/move. I guess for SHTF, they would be less than ideal due to the battery life unless you have a way of charging them.

AR’s, AK’s, lowers, all prohibited now???
Just double checked. Looks like PSA will only ship stripped lowers. The will not ship completed AR's/AK's rifles (likely due to only having threaded barrels with flash hiders) or complete lowers (not sure why on this one). Shipping Restrictions By State | Palmetto State Armory New Jersey No Drop Ship ammo FOID Required for ammo purchases No Complete AR / AK Receivers Non-compliant AR and AK pistols will not be shipped Non-compliant AR and AK rifles will not be shipped Non-compliant Handguns / Pistols will not be shipped Non-compliant Shotguns will not be shipped No magazines with a capacity of 10+

AR’s, AK’s, lowers, all prohibited now???
I've ordered several stripped AR lowers from them to NJ no problems. Have to be shipped to an FFL obviously. If they are no longer shipping AR's to NJ this IS something new as of this year. They are pretty good about putting a notice at the top of their page when they change their shipping policy to a state. I have seen nothing about NJ on there.

Tired of hearing "Why do you need an AR-15" or "Why do you need high capacity magazines?" "We should ban them."
Tired of hearing "Why do you need an AR-15" or "Why do you need high capacity magazines?" "We should ban them." "We live in safe area, my house hasn't been broken into." OK, Why do you have locks on your house? Why do you lock your doors? Why do you lock your car? Why do you have a fire extinguisher in your kitchen? I've never had a fire that required a fire extinguisher. Why do you need a seatbelt? Have you ever gotten into an accident where a seatbelt saved your life? Why do you need a car? I know someone who lives on my street who doesn't have a car. He walks everywhere or takes a bus if needed (in a rural suburban area). "But cars are important." More people lose their lives per year to cars (42K) than people murdered with guns (6K). We should ban cars. More people die of obesity (300K) than guns (6K). Why don't we ban McDonald's and Burger King and sue them? More people die of prescription drugs (107k) than by guns (6k). Why don't we ban them and sue big pharma? "But why does someone need an AR-15 or a large capacity magazine?" Break-ins these days aren't like what you see on TV with a single dude in a ski mask sneaking in through an open window. Around here it is a bunch of organized young athletic males from Newark with priors driving a stolen car who have cased the area before. 2-4 of them break into the house with 1 waiting in the car. Laws have no meaning or consequences to them because they live in a liberal Democrat controlled city that has liberal bail reform laws and liberal DA, prosecutors, and judges that just let them back out on the streets. We see people getting punched and knocked out for fun, pushed onto subway tracks for fun, or kill or rape for fun to join gang. They've been told over and over again that white people have privileges that they don't and that white people are oppressors and all whites are racist. What is your wife going to do when these 4 big athletic males break in and you are away on a business trip? They beat up and incapacitate your youngest son and now want to have their way with your wife and daughter. She has a 9mm handgun with 10rounds and knows how to use it. But we all know it takes multiple shots from a handgun to immediately incapacitate someone. One shot may eventually kill someone hours later, but think what they can be doing in those seconds, minutes and hours to your family. So lets say it takes 6 shots to immediately kill the first guy, and you hit a 2nd guy with the remaining 4 shots. There is still 2 guys left who are now really pissed you killed their friends and you are out of ammo because we are limited to only 10 rounds. The bad guy in the car comes in to see what is going on and now there are 3 bad guys who don't want any witnesses. A 5.56 AR would take about 2 shots to incapacitate someone. But there is a total of 5 bad guys. With only 10 rounds, you need to be perfect under stress to incapacitate all of them immediately. Are you willing to bet you or your families lives on it? What about your friends or neighbors or other law abiding citizens who want to be able to protect themselves? Far more lives are saved than lost by guns, because people are able to turn the tables and defend themselves against people who would otherwise have no problem hurting or killing others.

ATF may have painted themselves into a corner re supressors
ATF Stripped of Power To Regulate & Control Suppressors Under The NFA!!! - YouTube The ATF claims that the 2nd amendment only applies to "instruments that constitute bearable arms" and that is why they can regulate supressors. Wouldn't this mean that the ATF cannot regulate integrally supressed firearms (ie firearms with supressors built into the barrel)?
