  1. Law says bringing firearm for repair IIRC. If your shipping it same thing.
  2. My defense would be it's being shipped for repair. I've never heard of anyone in 45 years of shooting being arrested taking a handgun or long gun packaged to send for repair. Don't worry so much.
  3. No conflicting viewpoints here. If the gun is not legal in NJ it does make a difference who owns it. It is illegal in NJ. The only way a gun illegal in NJ could be in NJ is if it is being transported by a non-resident under FOPA through NJ.
  4. I prefer stainless. Easier to maintain moreso if you have to carry it in the weather. Many prefer the traditional look of blued. If you scratch or wear the bluing you can touch it up but its not the same anymore.
  5. If you buy a 500 you will wind up like most who own them. You will take it to the range fire maybe a dozen rounds and because of recoil and ammo costs put it away until the next trip. A 4" 357 is the best all around handgun made. Cheap to feed and variety of power levels in ammo available. GP100 would be a great choice.
  6. There is nothing illegal AFAIK for someone to own a collapsible stock although a constructive possession case might be made if you have one for an AR and have an AR. If you have one for a pump shotgun or firearm that does not fit into NJ AWB you can put it on and use it. A SKS with fixed magazine for example.
  7. No problem selling anything to agencies.
  8. These are questions for a firearms attorney. Well worth the fee to stay out of trobule.
  9. I remember Navy Arms selling those for $75 at the time. I didn't buy one because ammo really wasn't available then. Still wish I did.
  10. Many were rebarreled during WWII. They needed rifles and didn't worry about it. Read the section on these in Hatcher ' s Notebook. Many shoot them I wouldnt. Judgement call on your part.
  11. I have several Model 10 revolvers so I guess that says something. Some may feel different but IMO the 38 special is just as good as a 9mm for self defense.
  12. I started reloading in the early 70s. Many were referring to bullets as bullet heads then. I think this was done as many used the word bullet for what is more properly called a cartridge or round of ammunition. Just my guess.
  13. You can keep any New Jersey banned firearm or magazine over 15 rounds in any state its legal if you're in New Jersey resident. Friends of mine moved their "assault weapons" out of state when the ban went into effect. How you acquire these things is a different story. You've relocated to PA so I guess you have a PA dl. Just go and buy what you want. If you still have a NJ dl a dealer really can't sell you a banned in NJ gun. Most places will just sell you magazines although I've heard some dealers in PA won't sell a NJ resident magazines over 15 rds. You could order magazines from anywhere and have them shipped to your PA address. Remember NJ law basically stops at its borders. The one exception is if you buy a long gun from a dealer it needs to be NJ compliant.
  14. Ruger Mk I or II the barrel is permanently mounted to the receiver. Federal law calls a stripped receiver (AR, AK, bolt action, etc) a firearm. NJ law has to go along with that. Many inexpensive guns made before 1968 have no serial number but the receiver is the firearm.
  15. DMD and DDS have the same education. The only difference is what the school wants to call the degree. Some schools give graduates a choice of DDS or DMD.
  16. Which route are you taking? We don't know what states you are going through until we know how you're getting there.
  17. You should not need pliers to do this. I've been adjusting sights on AR/M16/M4 rifles since 1968. I've never had to use pliers which will undoubtedly scar your front sight. Use the round to push the sight CW or CCW via the notches in the base of the blade. Google AR or M16 operators manual which will illustrate what I'm saying. Don't Bubba your front sight with pliers.
  18. With the bullet point pushing down the spring loaded plunger, twist the front sight by turning it clockwise or counterclockwise. Ive been doing this for almost 50 years.
  19. Ive used the legal way listed in post #2 most of the time. Sometimes had the seller drive the car to my house and finished the deal. if you choose the other way listed in post #2 you risk tickets for: Unregistered vehicle Fictious plates Uninsured vehicle (still a mandatory license suspension IIRC) Not worth the convenience AFAIC and way too expensive in the end. Was this seller in Toms River? I got a great deal from a guy doing that a few months ago.
  20. Breakfree CLP, Hoppes #9, & CRC Brakekleen (red can) covers 99%. If the gun is soaked with water I use WD40. Mobil 1 grease for a Garand.
  21. There is no need for case law when the statute is clear on the fact the exemptions are for people without a FPID.
  22. You can convert a pistol like that into a rifle but I don't think you would be able to ever change it back to a pistol. All work would have to be done before you take delivery. It may look cool in the configuration you want. However, you will spend well over $1000 to build a rifle with the capabilities of a $300 Hi Point 995. How much is cool worth to you?
  23. It's been about 10 years since I've been there but IIRC it is 10-12 lanes and 25 yards, handgun only. They also required lead free ammo. I don't know if that was because of the ventilation system or just green policy. There was room there for a small gun store which I imagine would be needed to make it profitable.
  24. Forgot to add, if you're boarded by Coast Guard or other Federal LEO past 3 miles they usually don't care what guns you have aboard. However, being a veteran of hundreds of LE boardings the first question will be "do you have any weapons aboard". Answer honestly as if they find guns they will wonder what else you are hiding. Keep in mind it doesn't take much for the USCG or other Federal entity to do a border search when you're on the water. There are also many state and local LEOS that are cross designated Customs Officers. That can do a border search also.
  25. There is an existing indoor range at Ft Monmouth I've shot on. That would need minimal work to put it in operation.
