  1. No need for the $1. The something of value ($1) only applies to real property AFAIK. That would seem to be permitted under Federal law. However, I wouldn't do it. It might cost a lot to prove you're right. Avoid issues with that $2 lock on the case.
  2. IMO X-Rail is good for gun games or defending a fixed position and illegal in NJ if it's over 15 rds.
  3. I agree. Securing the shotgun from use ensures it's storage.
  4. 18USC922a.5 prohibits: any person...sell, transfer, give, transport, or deliver any firearm to any...person who the transfer knows...does not reside in the state the transferor resides. Now the same section of law permits loan of a firearm for lawful sporting purpose to the resident of another state. The legal issue is what constitutes temporary in this case. A month, a year, 20 years? If I come to AZ and you lend me a shotgun to go quail hunting that would be okay. The OP can take the shotgun and legally transfer the gun there to his friend who is also a NJ resident. The issue as I see it is: 1. He's not transferring the shotgun to his friend who is also a NJ resident IAW NJ law. If he did there's no problem. If you transfer a firearm to another NJ resident without meeting requirements of NJ in another state could make it a federal issue (across state lines). 2. He's not maintaining control over the shotgun like they do at a rental range. IANAL but to avoid any issues on a transfer or what is a "temporary loan" why I suggest locking it in something in PA. This removes all doubt of transfer being made. He could also transfer the firearm, meeting NJ requirements, to another NJ resident anywhere as far that goes. Possibility of being prosecuted for this? Transferring a firearm out of state to avoid state law. Probably close to zero. Remove all possibility by putting a $2 lock on the case.
  5. The only thing you can't have on a pump in NJ is magazine over 15 rds. That would take about a 40 inch barrel on a pump.
  6. NJSP only wants your fingerprints once. I've been in the same place for the past 15 years but have changed my address in NJ 7 or 8 times and never was fingerprinted again since 1971. Getting printed again is totally up to the CLEO where you apply. If you think about it being printed again is the only sure fire way for the CLEO to be sure you are who you say you are. Not that I support it, just understand why they want it done again. Your fingerprints don't really change. I'm no expert on the matter but have been told if you acquire a scar on your finger it makes it easier to identify your print by someone who knows what they're talking about.
  7. This question can't be answered without knowing the ballistics of the ammo used. A mil is a meter wide at 1000 meters and one centimeter at 100 meters. You are not going to solve your problem with a moa scope. If you're using a mil dot scope think metric; if you're using a moa scope think English system. No conversions needed then.
  8. I agree with mipafox on this issue. Not a state but a Federal thing. IMO not only your intent to deny possession but use of your firearm when you're not there. I don't think a trigger lock is enough as one could still use the gun to hold up a gas station as long as he didnt let someone see the trigger was locked. Anything from a locked soft case to a $10,000 safe would meet the criteria you meant to deny possession, use, or transfer to your friend in PA. Please stop the phony baloney lease or rental agreement suggestions. They aren't going to save you legally IMO. A $100 sheet metal cabinet that your friend doesn't have the key to and allows you to leave at his house without any compensation probably will.
  9. Being limited to one evil feature with a AR I stick to a pistol grip. It's the evil feature with the most utility. JMO
  10. I'd look at ATF'S definition.

    I shot my 4595 today. Zeroed for 75 yards (would hit 5" low at 100) with 230 fmj. The 995 shoots 4-6" @ 100. The 4595 is not as accurate shooting 6-8". Either is accurate enough for SD purposes. The 4595 fed whatever I gave it including my lead swc loads. I can't see any reason to replace anything on either rifle. They are what they are and very usable as they are.
  12. I'm no expert in shooting SA revolvers but I can tell you what works for me. One of the things you need to do to shoot good groups is have consistency in your grip. The only way I found to do this is by curling your little finger under the bottom of the grip. Think about it, if you let the gun "roll" in your hand you will be constantly readjusting your grip. If you keep your little finger under the bottom of the grip, you will maintain your grip after recoil or after cock in when shooting one handed. Shooting with two hands is the same but use your support hand to do all the cocking. Helps to maintain your grip. Don't depend on the "roll" to absorb recoil. Let your arms absorb recoil. This works for me. Someone who does a lot of Cowboy Action might have better advice.
  13. You need to either: 1. Use ammo loaded to M1 safe pressures. Several manufacturers make this. 2. Use an adjustable gas plug.
  14. If a flash surpressor is the only evil feature the Mini 14 does not have to be modified. The M14S is listed as banned.The M14A is not listed but might be considered substantially identical. The Fed Ord M14s are iffy quality AFAIK. Early ones with US parts were good. Later ones used Chinese parts which were not very good. I would probably dispose of it in Nevada. The M1 and Mini 14 are gtg in NJ as is.

    BTW, I lube everything with Breakfree with PTFE. I've found that although the vehicle (liquid) may evaporate, the Teflon is still there. Guns lubed and put away for a couple of years run fine when they are taken out of storage.
  16. This is not an instructional video. This is real life. She could have done things differently with the same result. I gather from this and other posts there are some that think you will have time to dial 911, don your body armor, tactics vest with spare ammo, ninja light (designed to startle and confuse your attacker) and of course hearing protection because you don't want to risk damaging your hearing while saving your life. This woman grabbed her gun and flashlight and it worked out okay. No one here knows what she saw when she shot at the thug after he went out the door.

    Yes it is. The Hi Point does have AK reliabilty though. When I shoot it I punch the bore a few times and knocked off the big chunks. I've had mine for about 10 years and at least a couple thousand rounds and I've only taken it apart once. I shot mine today. Haven't shot it for over a year. Put 100 rds through it no malfunctions. I'll probably take it apart for a thorough cleaning. It's been a few years.
  18. Answer to your question below. I agree with fishnut. 3 armed cretins knock down your door while you're sleeping. Their intent is clear. No time to invite them to leave. I don't see any problem with this if it were NJ. Yes, maybe she could have done things differently. But as JC Westy68 said violence of action and taking the fight to the bad guys works to defeat what is an outnumbered situation. It's worked countless times in combat and in SD situations. You don't learn this with gun games. What she did worked out. That's the important thing.
  19. Hillary would have told her to dial 911. True. Many criminals of thus type expect victims to comply. She showed them different. Beat feet was their response.
  20. Never asked for any more than the normal ID requirements asked of everyone.
  21. There is a big downside to dispensing street justice to this guy. If that was done there would be zero chance of finding out what he knows, was he working alone, and a wealth of other information that might be extracted from him. Names, places, meetings, etc. Information that can catch other jihadists before something happens. He would definitely get life just for the shootout in Linden. That's a gimme. He'd get the same for the bombing in New York. There's a bargaining chip we have when the US Attorney does all this in Federal court. NJ and NY have no death penalty. The Federal system does. He's already shown he's not willing to fight to the death. He now needs to decide whether he's so committed to the cause and get the death penalty or talk and get life in prison. Spending a few million dollars to prevent many more deaths and injuries. That's worth it in my book.
  22. All of those mounts rely on how tight they fit in the groove for the cover of the bolt hold open. I've used the B Square. Got it to work by loctite on all the screws. The big knob and the screws that tighten it to the receiver. However, it's not very rugged compared to a base that screws directly to the receiver. The part on the mount that slides in the slot on the receiver is oversized (on the one I got anyway) and required some filing to get it to fit. I don't see anything the more expensive mounts offer. The cheaper mounts only slide into the receiver. The small screws on the B Square locate it better on the receiver. It will work but if you really want to rely on it loctite everything down, zero the scope and keep it in a hard case to prevent it from being knocked around. Just my experience. Others may differ.
  23. What Robo115 said. For example I brought my daughter in Colorado a couple of guns at Christmastime. We brought them to a FFL there who took them from me and transferred them to her. You can't do this in NY because you can't just possess a handgun in NY state without a permit. The only exceptions NY allows AKAIK is for a competition.
