i need your opinion ar build
My $0.02 18" barrels work fine with rifle length gas. No real issues. So no need to go shorter. In terms of gas block the JP JPGS-9D two piece adjustable low profile is the answer, especially if going with a long hand guard. It's two piece, so if needed you can take it off despite having a pinned muzzle device. It also fits under slim handguards. If going shorter handguard than gas system, you have a few yankee hill 2 piece gas block options, a number of them with flip up sights. I own some, and all the more recent purchases getting the gas hole to align is a bit of a pain. They have also gone up in price to the point they aren't cheaper than the JP gas block I mentioned. They do have a new hinged gas block I have not met in person, but is kind of neat as well. It's only $50 at midway, but is not for sale yet it seems. YHM-9345

consent to mental health records check
As a data point, I don't disclose anything, I sign the waiver, and never had a problem. However, I did as a young child have to attend court mandated family therapy due to my brother's extra legal antics and the repercussions thereof. It's never been an issue.

The Most Psychopathic States
Because while those traits may correlate, the real question is at what rate and how reliably.. The north east is hostile. It doesn't mean it is filled with psychopaths. Also psychopathy isn't a pass fail thing. They tend to evaluate it with an inventory, and you can score high or low. You can have some features that lead to a higher score and have them fairly intensely while lacking others. You can also have a little bit of them all and not qualify either. Pretty much all children, and most all teenagers exhibit a number of them, and it is considered normal development process, so they don't like applying the term psychopath to minors, even if it fits.

AG Grewal Sends “Cease and Desist” Letters Warning “Ghost Gun” Makers to Stop Advertising, Selling in New Jersey
It's really hard to have an idea of what kind of bullshit this is without knowing who got letters. Is he trying to scare vendors from selling AR parts to NJ in general? That's what quoting the AWB language would imply. However, in a court of law, the only parts you could really argue about are evil features. Since the AWB is a multi-feature test, any of them can be legal under the right conditions. IF they are talking about 80% receivers, you would think they would quote the law on manufacturing. So my take away is this is a bullshit statement to look like they are doing things, or they are really trying to intimidate and extort vendors into refusing to do business with NJ customers by threat of lawsuit.

so, my trip to the range didn't go so well...
Yup, normal operation is multi-sensor. Unless the control module is shorted. Had a vehicle that was REAL strict about sensor input to deploy to the point people wanted to sue for lack of deployment. Their control module sitll had a HUGE warning about battery disconnect and cap discharge before removing the wiring harness because you could trigger ALL the airbags.

New Jersey and Gun Control
*SIGH* The gun control scheme is not about guns. They don't give a shit about you obeying the law. They give a shit about silencing gun owners as a political force and taking them off the table as a voting block. Period. (well form the politicians' perspective). You are right they are not prepared to handle mass disobedience. They make a law, they don't enforce it well. This is the hsitory of gun control to date, why would even larger scale stupidity be any different. Look at the SAFE act. They didn't even go looking to make examples. You get caught in the machine, it'll grind you up a little more. Stay away from the grindy bits and they won't do anything. I mentioned form the politicians' perspective earlier. What you have to add in is the bureaucrats' perspective. From that perspective, they love new laws like gun control laws. They don't add much regulatory paperwork for them, and it lets them throw a wall of shit at the people who wind up entering the legal system to force them to capitulate without all that bother of a trial. The useful idiots like it because they can tell themselves that they are being protected when they aren't, weren't before, and that the only thing keeping them safe is the fact that bad shit is really not all that common combined with a bit of good luck. The only thing keeping them scared is the fact they are very shitty at comprehending scale and think the world revolves around them.

New Jersey and Gun Control
Well since 1940 there's about twice the population in the country. Still one national news cycle, and still 365 days in a year. So you would expect incidents to roughly double with literally nothing changing about people as a whole.

New Jersey and Gun Control
Hmm you are stupid. So first up, military operating on US soil against US citizens. That's a no-no. Insist, and now you have a bunch of no 2A organizations opposed to you. This will be unlikely out the gate, and even if done, lets see what the compliance rate is. You can go shoot your fellow Americans, or sit out the shooting war with a fairly arguable case based on your oath. So it's law enforcement vs. the populace. How much non-compliance do you need? Well if you line up all the sworn officers, you have somewhere around a million and change for a populace of ~250 million adults. Now the cops, while they have their regular job. This involves showing up someplace when called. That's a real bad habit to have in a shooting war. Maybe they decide to dictate terms and kick in the doors. How many? How fast? How many people stay on their side when they are kiciking in the doors of their neighbors? Does it stop at just kicking in the right doors? Probably not. Why is it the leftist mind set thinks when we go into the middle east and enact violence on the population we will breed resistance, but if we do the same here everyone will just fold? That same bullshit cognitive dissonance just permeates their tenets. Cops are racist murderers and jack booted thugs/Cops are the only people who should be armed. We must conserve, recycle, and live like hermits because we don't have the resources on the planet/we can provide plenty for everyone because there's no limit on a government's resources that aren't made up.

For Those Moving out of PRNJ
N.J.A.C. 13:54-1.11 Duplicate firearms purchaser identification card (a) Persons shall apply for a duplicate firearms purchaser identification card to replace a lost, stolen or mutilated card, or in the case of a change of residence by the holder, within 30 days of such loss, theft, mutilation, or change of residence. (b) The applicant shall complete an application for a duplicate firearms purchaser identification card designated as form STS-3 and a consent for mental health records search designated as form SP 66 and present same to the chief of police in the municipality where the applicant resides or to the Superintendent in all other cases. (c) It shall be the responsibility of the chief of police of the municipality wherein the applicant currently resides or the Superintendent in all other cases, to conduct a criminal history records check and to determine if the applicant is subject to any of the disabilities as provided by law and this subchapter and to issue the duplicate card, should the applicant qualify. The applicant shall pay the appropriate fee for a Criminal History Record Check as established by N.J.A.C. 13:59 in accordance with N.J.S.A. 53:1-20.5 et seq. (P.L. 1985, c.69). That's the verbiage. So I have 30 days to file. Please, tell me how if I move out of state. And am a resident of a new state at the 30 day mark, that the state of NJ has any statutory authority over the resident of another state residing in that other state. By that logic, if I went an purchased a handgun without a purchase permit form NJ in that state, despite abiding by the law of my state of residence, I would be guilty of an illegal transfer in NJ. DO they get to extradite me for that? As for guilty of a crime, what crime? Show me the 2C section this applies under. I looked, can't find jack. Arguing that regulatory guidance applies to regulation of non-residents not residing in the state would be pretty frikin stupid.

Looking for cool factor Beretta or Desert Eagle
The desert eagle is a single action pistol. There is no double action version. The baby eagle is DA/SA but is a cz-75 derivative, not the same as the full zorch desert eagle.

Costa carry comp 2011- Everyone needs to start contacting our legislators non stop. Make it a family sport until June 7th. Slam all their lines!
OK, went full abuse. From MS brand infrastructure, I can tell you that either 1) MS outbound is limiting delivery or 2) njleg is hammered and backing up or 3) both. They are all just sitting in the mail queue undelivered.- Everyone needs to start contacting our legislators non stop. Make it a family sport until June 7th. Slam all their lines!
given the size of the list, your email provider may impede the delivery of the mail if you do it all at once. Both gmail and office 365/outlook.com claim 500 per mail, but I can tell you MS will lock you down way sooner than that.- One Place that Pro2A and Gun Control Types Can Agree?
I disagree 100% that there is an area of overlap here. Go look at the various activism materials generated by the gun grabbers. They are fully on board with feeding the 24-7 media cycle on mass shootings and keeping it flowing for even longer periods of time than ever before. For the gun grabbers, you have two sorts: The true believers, and the political creatures. The true believers might welcome suggestions of actual efficacy. The political animals care not for anything practical except the end of gun owners as a voting block. Either by their elimination or by politically silencing them. This is why every proposed law since I have been alive seems to be geared towards initiating a chilling effect on ownership or making it increasingly difficult to engage new shooters or bring in the next generation of shooters.- Federal 22. cal
You need to put 44 boxes in cart and use promo code M3P for the above to work. Just FYI.- Budget optic for an AR
IMO shooting a 10" plate at 300 yards with a 2moa dot gets to be challenging. Even a 4x will make it a ton easier. If you can get a discount from vortex, check it out. You can get it $299.99 all the time from SWFA. For a mount, aero precision SPR is good, and normally $95. It occasionally goes on sale for ~$75. I don't think you can really do better for less than the above combo. Might be worth subscribing to DVOR for sales. Both come up semi-regularly with them and the prices cna be good.- First time Shooting Woes
This is worth considering. For technique that causes FTF, you cna look at teacupping the gun as a culprit. I'll let archer demonstrate It can push up on the mag, moving feed lip position, and causing a jam.- Legal Status of Non-NFA Firearm AR Build?
It was. Reading through the reddit thread again, they are relying on the franklin arsenal firearm for osme of their reasoning. That has a non-rifled barrel. IT isn't smooth bore, but the lands and grooves don't twist. I'm not liking their reasoning federally 100%, much less for NJ.- Cutting the cord
I'm on direct TV now. I agree the guide needs work. I will point out that it has a coupel things going for it that are on obvious. 1) HBO via them is $5 a month as opposed to $15 a month for an over the top streaming plan. THis gives you full HBOGo access, which is spiffy if you like hbo. 2) If you like hockey, your regional sports network includes MSG and MSG+. Direct TV NOW is literally botht he easiest and cheapest way to stream hockey in the portion of NJ in the NY metro area. No VPN BS to mask your location.- Legal Status of Non-NFA Firearm AR Build?
You have three choices, rifle,pistol, or firearm. I don't see how this qualify's as firearm for NJ. I'm open to being convinced otherwise.- Taping GunForHire Radio #364 with State Senator Loretta Weinberg in the show. Yes! Senator Weinberg. Tune in this Sunday.
That's not really saying much.- Variable Power 1x
You need to have it mounted and to have diopter adjusted for you to to really judge. I can shoot both eyes open with mine no problem at 1x.- A nice little quiz on ammo!
quiz has lots of wrong stuff. Like which is more expensive. HP or whatever. Well in .22 hp or not is about the same. Most center fire rifle cartridges that aren't popular in bulk, they are going to be about the same. Which bullet expands? HP, JSP and varmint bullets are ALL designed to expand.- Height of lawn
I believe the setting on my mower is supposedly 3.5". It's not like I take a tape measure to it. Means I have to water it less to keep it alive. - Show us your 1911's
