Do you really think a prosecutor wants to take a case to court where the defendant was on their way home to the range and they stopped to use the bathroom? Or should you run out of gas? Or you shot a match in Cape May and headed home to Sussex County and stopped for coffee. Please find me a case where this has happened.

Has anyone here ever been arrested or hassled because they stopped to use the bathroom, eat, stop for gas, etc on the way to or from a range? Know anyone this has happened to? The law says reasonable deviation and I've never seen or heard of any issues with this. I agree the law is stupid as written. I think too many make an issue of this.

There is no loophole. If you buy a gun on line, out of state, it goes,thru a FFL. I think the polls, controlled by MSM, are biased. How many Black American sheriffs support Hillary? Keep in mind, in NJ most sheriffs in NJ have their authority surpressed by the Prosecutor, an appointee. The Sheriff is the highest LE official in most states.

I would never trade a detachable magazine for a collapsible stock, flash surpressot, and bayonet stud. You would be trading a great deal of utility for "looks". The detachable magazine is a much better feature than those. I realize to some it's all about looks. Like 15/30 magazines and spending money to add a muzzle brake.

It wouldn't be a conversion part but a standard part. Look on SKS boards for parts suppliers.

SKS is not banned by make or type like the AR15 or M1 carbine type. Some SKS were made to take detachable magazines and some were converted by use of a kit. If you convert a detachable magazine SKS back to a fixed magazine it is no longer on the banned list or not subject to AW rules.

As T Bill said as soon as you install the fixed magazine it's no longer an "assault weapon in NJ". You can then put it in a folding stock, put on a flash surpressor, and install every evil feature there is as long as it's a fixed magazine.

I shall defer to you PK90. Every time I bought a long gun out of state they've always asked for my FID. Thats probably the FFL's requirement.

Well...no. Federal law allows out of state long gun purchase from a FFL as long as it is legal in both states. You need a FID to but a long gun in NJ so you need to have it to but one out of state.

Those gun prices look good butou have to remember if you were making $150 a week you were doing pretty good.

BTW, I've found it useful to loctite (blue) the charging handle (bolt). I've never lost it but have found it to loosen up during extended firing. Not hard to get out again and being that's only every couple of thousand rounds not hard to live with.

That turtle could probably take your arm off.

Another plug fir SG Ammo. No copy of ID, fast and reasonable shipping. Never any issues.

I don't see what's wrong with charging them with all they did. You can make terroristic threats without a gun, 30 rd magazine, and hollowpoints. Just about all NJ prohibitive gun laws can be fixed by just adding "during the commission of a crime". You have an "assault weapon", "high capacity magazine", and "hollowpoints" no problem. Use the same to hold up a liquor store, three more charges on top of the armed robbery.

Okay, whatever floats your boat.

DeerSlayer, I don't see what great advantage that Boberg has to justify 2 to 3 times the price of most of the others in the table you posted. A tenth or quarter inch in dimensions doesn't make much difference unless you need to put it in a particular size box. A couple of ounces one way or the other doesn't matter even if you're in the lunar escape module trying to get off the moon. I'm not trying to bust your chops. Just trying to figure out why you think that gun is worth so much.

They were also charges with terroristic threats, illegal possession of a firearm and possession of "high capacity" magazine. It seems the firearms had something to do with the threats according to NJ.com.

That would be legal under Federal law but AFAIK not NJ.

I often use a nylon knife pouch. Cheap, if someone sees it they think it's a knife, available in many sizes to hold a 25 ACP magazine up to a double stack 45.

If you find yourself having to do this you're not cleaning properly.

4" 357 revolver, best do it all handgun IMO.

Older S&W have the same problem. That's why S&W put a trigger stop on premium guns like Model 19s. The problem arose that those trigger stops would work their way loose and cause the trigger to malfunction. Not what you'd want to happen in a gunfight. A little overtravel is not a bad thing in a combat revolver. Federal agencies removed all the trigger stops from the 19s and 66s in service back in the 1970s. I guess I've learned to deal with that over the years. I can't say there's much, if any, overtravel with S&Ws with MIM innards. To answer your question I don't know of any way to fix your Taurus short of handfitting parts. If it's really that bad I'm sure Taurus will fix it free.

I've had a small frame Taurus since 1988. Better triggers than a S&W J frame IMO. I carry one in 327 Mag often. Great guns.

Many will say there's a loss of accuracy shooting a 38 in a 357 due to the bigger jump the bullet has to make. I'm not one of them. If this were true in all cases S&W K frame 22s would be the most inaccurate revolver ever made. We all know it's not. I've never seen much, if any, difference in accuracy shooting 38s in a 357. In a rife? there may be some difference. I haven't shot much 38 in my 357 levergun. However, last week I tried some std velocity lead SWCs. They were more accurate than the 357s at 25 yds. If you're shooting 38s at longer ranges you may have accuracy problems as the bullet loses stability as it loses velocity. You will hear people talk of fouling in the cylinder from shooting 38s in a 357. I've never had that problem because I clean my guns after use.
