Stupid NFA question.
I seriously doubt you would get it. If you were to get it, what's to stop you from making your rifle an SBR? You have the stamp. I would take a guess and say no way while you are in NJ.

Goodbye New Jersey!
Maybe Troy will chime in, but if I remember correctly, he has said you can't carry at any event you have to pay admission to, or something like that.

Remote Gun Lock?
I see this as being very bad when you take into consideration the hacking capabilities. Someone disabling your firearm when you need it. That's if they could even get the technology to work. Not something I'd want. I'll lock my guns in my safe to keep them out of others hands. http://www.examiner.com/article/remote-gun-locator-and-shutoff-poses-predicted-threat-to-gun-rights Remote gun locator and shutoff poses predicted threat to gun rights GUN RIGHTS JULY 21, 2013 BY: DAVID CODREA Yardarm Technologies has created “a geo-location system that tracks a gun and can remotely lock it (or fire it),” Fox News reported Friday. “Suppose you and your family are on vacation in Las Vegas, and your firearm is back at home. Wouldn’t you want to know in real time if an intruder, or worse a child, is handling your gun?” CEO Bob Stewart told media. “We want the gun owner to stay connected to their firearm, no matter what the circumstance.” That sounds like a goal that may interest some gun owners, and that in turn may create a market demand for the technology. The company notes on its website it will give gun owners “unprecedented control of [their] firearm 24 hours a day, seven days a week, from anywhere in the world, including: Real-Time Alerts -- You are alerted within milliseconds if your weapon is handled or moved. Remote Safety Control -- Enable or disable the trigger safety on your firearm at any time from your mobile device. If your gun is being handled, you can remotely disable or pre-set for “auto-disable”. Notification to Authorities --Immediately notify local authorities if unauthorized movement or handling of your weapon is detected. Reporting and Analytics -- Gather and maintain read-only access to real-time and historical reports of your firearm status, location, handling, and use. The danger is if that visibility and the choices offered can also give "unprecedented control" to someone other than the gun owner, and that could include hackers as well as government/law enforcement agents. Considering the terrifyingly intrusive level of spying Americans are currently subjected to, it’s hardly far-fetched to believe that mandating such technology is something anti-gunners will demand as “common sense” and “a good first step.” With “smart gun” edicts pending technology development being explored in California, New Jersey, Maryland and Connecticut, requiring features to allow authorities to track guns and disable them by remote control would be unsurprising additions to the ever-growing list of “gun control” demands. That so many “law-abiding” gun owners already accept permits and preconditions on how and where they may and may not be allowed to carry guns, it’s not like widespread acknowledgement of extra-Constitutional government “authority” to regulate the keeping and bearing of arms under the guise of “public/officer safety” hasn’t already been ceded by the vast majority of them -- and their political lobbying groups. Some have been warning of these developments for years. “[P]erhaps the most immediate and insidious threat we face from technology comes under the guise of ‘safety -- for the children,’ so-called ‘smart guns’ under development and soon to be required in a state near you,” this columnist wrote in a 2002 Guns and Ammo column. “Because ... they're also lobbying for another technology they developed to be required on cars -- a ‘shutoff switch’ that police can activate by remote control, making the rest of us pay for the infinitesimal fraction of drivers who lead them on car chases. “As writer Vin Suprynowicz warns (and I and some others independently predicted), this technology could be used by the police as "an `electronic master key' to `disable' any `smart guns' in the house," and be used as a pretext to "ban the manufacture of any gun that ISN'T a `smart gun'," that article concluded. After all, anti-gunners might ask, if you aren’t doing anything wrong, what have you got to hide? And what are you afraid of? ------------ A new GUNS Magazine "Rights Watch" column is now online.

Florida gunshop offers free gun to George Zimmerman..
So did a bestselling author: http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/07/19/brad-thor-offers-to-buy-george-zimmerman-a-new-gun-after-doj-puts-hold-on-trial-evidence/ BRAD THOR’S TESTY TV EXCHANGE AFTER HE OFFERS TO BUY GEORGE ZIMMERMAN A NEW GUN Jul. 19, 2013 12:41pm Madeleine Morgenstern1.2K 20.5K 145 2 410 Bestselling author Brad Thor is offering to buy George Zimmerman a new gun and all the ammunition he wants after the Justice Department put a hold on releasing the evidence from Zimmerman’s murder trial, thus delaying the return of his handgun. Author Brad Thor is offering to buy George Zimmerman a new gun. Thor made the offer in a series of tweets Friday, then doubled down in a contentious TV interview in Chicago. “Read this carefully, as I don’t want 2 be misunderstood: SCREW the #DOJ. If they won’t give #Zimmerman his gun back, I’ll buy him a new one,” he tweeted shortly after midnight Friday. He followed up with a tweet to Zimmerman’s brother Robert Zimmerman Jr.: “Whatever gun he wants + however much ammo, consider it done. I’m buying. Done deal.” Thor was confronted about his offer Friday morning in an appearance on Chicago morning program “Windy City Live.” “At what point do we let an American citizen get done with the justice process?” Thor asked. “I mean this is a big deal, this could happen to anybody. If the government can keep hounding you, this guy’s life is ruined at this point. I know we have a dead child here but he was found not guilty by a jury of his peers. Trayvon Martin wasn’t on trial, George Zimmerman was, and he’s not guilty…at what point does he get to recommence his life?” A show panelist asked whether “it’s really a good idea to give George Zimmerman a gun back?” “He’s not guilty!” Thor said. “And as a matter of fact don’t you think he needs a gun now more than ever with all the death threats against him?” Co-host Val Warner questioned why Zimmerman would “even risk going through the same thing again” if he had another gun. “That’s his decision, Val, it’s not for us to decide if we’re going to curtail his liberty or not, that is his Second Amendment right to possess a firearm, defend himself, defend his family, and it is not up to you, it’s not up to me, to decide what’s right for George Zimmerman. He’s an American citizen, he gets to decide what’s right for him,” Thor said. Warner said it could be Zimmerman’s decision “after everything is over.” “When’s it over? How much more does he have to go through?” Thor said. “There’s not a shred of evidence that he is a racist and yet the Department of Justice is freezing everything.” In an email to TheBlaze Friday afternoon, Thor said he had yet to hear from the Zimmerman family about his offer. As for what type of gun he’d buy for Zimmerman, Thor said “he’ll need to decide for himself.” “That’s the beauty of guns,” Thor said. Read this carefully, as I don't want 2 be misunderstood: SCREW the#DOJ. If they won't give #Zimmerman his gun back, I'll buy him a new one.

Sending optics in the mail illegal?!
Ok, thanks for the clarification. I guess it's ok if he took it with him when he was deployed as I have heard of troops buying their own optics and taking them when deploying.

Sending optics in the mail illegal?!
When companies say "not for export", don't they mean they can't sell the item outside the US? The definition of "export" is "to ship (commodities) to other countries or places for sale, exchange, etc. The op is asking about his family sending his optic to him. I don't see how export laws would apply to this.

Video: C-17 short runway takeoff from small municipal airport
Plus if it was late in the day, the sun would've been in their eyes. As said, it isn't the first time it has happened. I fly helicopters, not airplanes, but I've been in the cockpit of an airliner and corporate jet a few times and they always used full throttle on take off.

Traveling with Firearms
I put mine in my suitcase with United. No extra fees. Maybe they are talking about checking a rifle case. Are you LEO? If not, what permit do you have that will allow you to carry in NV?

Negative at the Shoprite in Freehold. I asked the distributor who was at the store and he said that the raspberry and grape ginger ales generally come out around Thanksgiving.

AR not loading the 1st round using the charging handle
Is the mag seating on a closed bolt? If you are using a pinned mag with 15 rounds in it, it may be too tight to load on a closed bolt. If bolt is locked back, you can seat the mag, then hit the bolt release. If you are loading a mag on a closed bolt, the mag may not be seated and won't strip off a round when you cycle the charging handle.
