  1. Do they have a FFL? They need one if you're leaving your gun there.
  2. This is correct. You can have what you want on a fixed magazine SKS as long as you are 922r compliant (922r is Federal law).
  3. This is the correct answer. The high thumb style of grip has become popular in the past 10 years or so. I still shoot with my weak thumb locking down my strong thumb. The webbing of my strong thumb is offset a little to the right on large grip guns to compensate for my short fingers. According to "the book" I put too much finger through the trigger. But I shoot well. I've always been of the notion if its safe and it works for you do it.
  4. The only excuse for bringing a non NJ compliant firearm or magazine over 15 rds is FOPA. That's only for travelling through NJ.
  5. Bayonets on SKSs are not an issue as long as the rifle has a fixed magazine. SKSs with detachable mags are banned in NJ.
  6. Keep in mind from 1968 to 1986 there were no mail order ammo sales to individuals. You had to go through FFLs. Fortunately, we had places like Navy Arms in NJ then where you could buy bulk ammo at reasonable prices. Dealers had various policies from ordering it for you no charge to charging a percentage with a minimum and maximum.
  7. If on passes, we have to wait and see what the final version of the law says.
  8. With lunker on this. Use a standard spring.
  9. I don't buy ammo often in NJ but ammo logs I've seen just say "100 rds 9mm" and don't specify bullet type. I could be wrong on that. Also, what difference would it make who bought what and how much. They'd just ban hollowpoints, no sales figures or other reasons needed.
  10. You have NJSP copying records over 1000 rds and an off the cuff comment by a Trooper. Investigators don't tell people who don't need to know anything they don't need to know. Troopers are not stupid. You really didn't think about what you were saying when you posted this. IIRC employees selling guns need a license or permit issued by NJSP. This requires at least as much of a background check as a FID. If the guy is a illicit ammo dealer how does he pay for it without a cashier knowing? If the guy is an illicit ammo dealer why doesn't he just go to PA? Criminals are not all stupid. I have over 30 years as a LEO and have never heard of anyone being charged with "illicit ammo sales" on a state level. Those on a Federal level were dealing in millions of rounds.
  11. For those who remember, that is probably the same double barrel that John Kerry used to crawl through the grass with to hunt deer. Actually this shows Obama's smartest move. No one would want to inflict any harm on Obama knowing we would wind up with Biden as POTUS if they did.
  12. GRIZ replied to paulnj088's topic in General Discussion
    Er NJ does call it "permit to carry a handgun". It does not specify "concealed". However, if you have a permit in NJ and choose to open carry and you're not wearing some type of security guard uniform the commotion you create will probably ensure you lose your permit.
  13. GRIZ replied to paulnj088's topic in General Discussion
    It just depends what the state wants to call their permit and how they want to define the parameters. In some states if you have a concealed weapons permit you carry anything ; other states issue a CCW and can be more restrictive. NJ issues a "permit to carry a handgun".
  14. Looking at the.numbers on Glock's website its the same size overall and about 3.5 oz lighter. On a gun that's over 30 oz that's not a big difference.
  15. It probably already has been boarded by CBP. If they have weapons manifested as ships equipment there is no violation as long as they are secured on the ship.
  16. FWIW, as the Model 19 is known as the Combat Magnum, the Model 15 is known as the Combat Masterpiece. It was the issue sidearm for the USAF from at least the 60s to adoption of the M9 in the 80s. A S&W revolver is the easiest to slick up. It is also easy to f___up. Too many think that watching some You Tube videos and a DVD make them a revolversmith. A smooth trigger is more important than light. I mentioned this in one thread several months ago and was told I needed to wake up. Fact is the genuine revolver pistoleros out there use extra power springs but have very smooth actions.. Many so called revolver experts out there install light sprimgs to conceal a gritty action. You can deal with a smooth 14 lb trigger (just a matter of developing muscle). A light gritty trigger is an impairment to good shooting. Learn to shoot a stock, yes stock, revolver well before you go modifying it. It will make you a better shooter. If you refuse to learn how to shoot a stock revolver (or anything that for that matter) first, you're using mods as a crutch not for a edge. Springs control 3 things in revolvers. Trigger pull, reliability (ignition), and trigger reset. You can have two but you can't have all three. S&W, Taurus, and Ruger don't have the lightest trigger pulls out of the box but are reliable and great trigger reset. The fact is a good smith can get that revolver down to 8 pounds or so with factory springs. Don't turn this into a toy gun with a 5 lb trigger pull.
  17. Well yes...and no. First, this yacht is undoubtedly a vessel of foreign registry. This makes it a little part of that country. Different rules apply. Are they subject to NY law. That depends. If they want to bring a case of vodka off the ship they have to pay duty and NY is entitled to collect taxes. If they want a case of vodka delivered to the ship and consumed on the ship as ship stores NY (or CBP ) doesn't collect a penny in taxes. If the chief engineer stabs the coo,k yeah, states would have jurisdiction. There a lot of things on ships manifested as ship's stores or ship's equipment that would surprise a lot of people. The only LE that can board the ship anytime would be CBP or USCG. Bluelinefish could school us better on exactly what state jurisdiction can be exercised over a vessel of foreign registry.
  18. Long guns can be transferred to you (with a NJFID) through a FFL in PA or NJ. Handguns can be transferred only by FFL in NJ. Willed firearms can just be given to you by executor or administrator of estate.
  19. Usually last Sunday of the month isn't it.
  20. Can't see why any of your guns would be illegal. I'm not familiar with it but is the block in the S&W mag removable? If so the magazine woulf be illegal based on the current guidelines for blocking anything over 15 rds.
  21. Not sure what the price is now but in 2005 when I retired we were paying about a contract price of something like 180.00/1000 for CCI Gold Dot 9mm 124gr. That's $9.00 a box of 50. This was going for $21-22 a box in a gun shop at that time. At those prices everyone could afford to qual and practice with JHP. The last price I remember the agency paying for FMJ was WW 124gr NATO 9mm for like 120.00/1000 or $6.00 a box of 50. That contract expired in 2003 I think and had been negotiated in 1998 or 99. The CCI contract was from 2002 and I'm guessing FMJ would have been maybe $1.50 a box less than the JHP. You could get the same prices if you negotiated a 1,000,000,000 round group buy. That would be plus the Federal Excise Tax, no tax for govt agencies at any level.
  22. So much has been comprimised there is nothing left to deal with. You have to face the fact that the liberal left wing politicians WANT TO TAKE ALL GUNS FROM THE CITIZENRY. That's their goal period. I would accept a photi FID if it replaced the cumbersome permitting system that exists and you can buy handguns with it. That would be a win and that's not the current proposal. They have given us the final f.u. long ago. Give them another chance? You have to be kidding. That sounds like a "Jews for Hitler for Chief Chancellor" movement. That would have done them a lot of good. There are others on this forum who claim to be pr 2A and proudly let it be known they voted for Obamanocchio both times. There has been no president that not only wants to take your guuns as much as he does (remember his guns and religion statement) but wants to turn this country to Socialism. They don't want to trust you with an 11 rd magazine. What makes you think they'll then trust you with a CCW?
  23. Service ammunition, yes JHPs, has been used by most Federal LE agencies for training and qualification for the past 35 years that I have personal knowledge of. State and local agencies do the same thing if they can afford it. These contracts run a period of 3-5 years or more and locks in the price for that time period. We have been through this issue a bunch of times and there is no big conspiracy here.
  24. I don't think your name needs to be on the lease. If you stay at the apt in NJ on say Mon-Thurs on a regular basis whether you have your own bedroom, sleep on the sofa, or in the bathtub it is one of your residences. If your kids own the apartment and your name doesn't appear on anything but you stay there regularly it still is one of your residences. Having a financial responsibility does reinforce your residency but is not a requirement.
