  1. Well it's NJ, so practice is what it is. The NJAC is AG guidance to the executive branch regarding the law as far as I can tell, so technically, no, it has nothing to do with direction to the judiciary. As far as I can tell, it is an interpretation of interaction with the judiciary to date and what the AG believes will keep actions of the executive branch (i.e. LE and prosecutors) on the same side of the written law as the judiciary.
  2. The list has been in the statutes online off and on. AFAIK it should not be there as it was not in there from the start. The argument was that substantially identical let the state ban anything they felt was close enough. This went to court, and lost for specific examples. The evil features tests of the NJAC are what the AG believes will meet muster as far as a court and defines substantially identical as they see it in a manner they believe will survive judicial scrutiny. I've been down the road of asking the same question you have, and that is the conclusion I have reached. YMMV, but get a good lawyer if you want to be the poster boy.
  3. I for one appreciate your tilting at windmills. Especially your attempt to make anachronistic cartridges push minor power factor.
  4. I dunno about the diabetes, but I can make a real hard argument for no fuel means the car doesn't go, and thus choosing that option contravenes the direct rout language. Towed to wherever by AAA or whomever is not particularly direct or speedy.
  5. Yeah, trying to explain that to match sponsors is a PITA too. Also what place is YT?
  6. I've lit off federal xm193, and wolf 55gr and 62gr stuff as well as my reloads with the Jp springs on it.
  7. Hmm googling for the specific date, the magic phrase is global currency reset. My response is how frikin stupid are people? Can we at least get conspiracy theories that have internal consistency? Here's a tip. The people in power that are making major bank and expanding power by gaming the reserve system and leveraging debt are not going to go to a gold backed currency willingly. Even if they want it for security as a hedge against their own destabilizing behavior, they aren't going to share with the masses by backing currency with it because FU and suck it peons. And if by some miracle they did, what would be the point of hoarding it? They wouldn't go after it like last time? Also of note, every search return was linked to gold bugs shilling for their favorite metal which has been floundering. I wouldn't even call this a rumor.
  8. Beyond unacceptable. This is the kind of qc that is a warning to just not do business with them again. They clearly are not checking for jack, so what else did they miss?
  9. The anti gunners don't outnumber us. At least not those for whom it is a voting issue. Those we outnumber in polls, in person, etc. The problem is NJ is heavily gerrymandered to start, and for most people in Nj, guns aren't even close to the top of their voting priorities. And yes, plenty of gun owners fall into that category. You want to make some pro rkba noise, bug your reps regarding the redistricting bill that's out there right now.
  10. In that time frame, check the samsung tables s. Looks like a giant galaxy s5. Insane pixel density, and has ad card if the stats I saw were correct (128gb sdxc support too). The nexus stuff does not support adding on an sd card FYI.
  11. I wouldn't try it. You'll wind up arguing over what the action is. Is it just the bolt and related, or does it include the trigger group. The grip is still a pistol grip immediately below the trigger group. Do you feel comfortable arguing against that in court?
  12. The list of what you can do is this: -install slim grip bushings if it doesn't have them. -install really thin micarta grips (navidrex was the thinnest I can currently find, i have an older set sitting around that's a wee bit thinner) or the new ultra slim titanium grips by halpurn titanium ( .165" and .101" thick respectively) -install slim grip screws or cut down the existing grip screws) -install a shorter trigger like the STI short nylon trigger or the infinity trigger system with the short curved shoe. -have a gunsmith undercut and relieve the trigger guard. If that makes sense or not is another matter. I've done the fiorst 4, and it is pretty easy. the last one is gunsmith only.
  13. I've used android and ipad. IMO there's more quality software in the apple app store than on play, but they are both horrible messes of very few gems among piles of shovelware. Things I would NOT do: kindle fire anything. The amazon skinning of android makes me want to smash the things. IMO it is completely awful. Microsoft windows 8 RT. Don't like windows 8 on X86, and I like it even less on a tablet. The piece of hardware is fine, but Things I would consider in the smaller size: ipad air retina second gen nexus (refurb preferred for price). the smaller samsung galaxy tab S that's just hitting. Has a killer screen and decent guts. Pricing is similar on the brandy new samsung and the ipad, so it's a push. Mostly, at this point, get a good screen and know what apps are improtnat to you and judge based on availability. one other thing is that apple seems to have more tablet support. i.e. apps that are either tablet specific, or natively support tablets as well as the phones. A LOT of content on play just uses the android sclare to make it fit, and this often has odd consequences in usability, and almost always looks worse.
  14. Translation: You have a group of people who feel they have earned the right to run their mouths running their mouths and getting pissed off at people who run their mouths cause they have no right to run their mouths. I remember when secret squirrels were secret. Can you all please STFU now instead of turning it all into a testosterone fueled tele-novella FFS? I'm not exactly being impressed by the behavior of anyone involved at this point.
  15. Like midwest said, machine time, but also intellectual property. A billet lower machined ot the middle of mil-spec (or with very small deviations like a trigger guard built in) runs about a $20 premium when things are not scarce. You get into the fancy stuff like unique ambi controls, funky mag wells, reinforcement, etc. You start paying for the manufacturer's desire to see their creative input to the design paid back.
  16. Also left out is that forged tends to be stronger for the same material, ounce per ounce. If you have a CNC machine, designing a billet lower with custom features is a matter of design and programming and push a button. If you want non standard features on a forging, you have to go to one of the few companies that do it, and convince them to make you one. Which translates into having serious money tied up in inventory. The noveske lowers with the flared magwell started out as billet lowers. They then eventually moved on to forgings once they had the capital to do so.
  17. After done thougt and rereading of the statutes, I have doubts about it triggering the smart gun law. It requires the gun be personalized to an individual, and the armatix is simply locked up by a fancy key really, and whoever possesses the key can operate it. I'm not sure knowledge of a pin qualifies as personalized.
  18. You only buy what you can afford. To make it easier, keep inundated there's what sets off your gear lust right now, and what you really want long term. Also, unless you are dealing in the really rare stuff, gun stuff is all commodity. It'll be there later, at worst at a small premium.
  19. Worst case, you open the buffer and replace one or more of the weights with 1" dowel or equivalent.
  20. Most places don't have access to a magnetic source string enough to actually wipe them. Some places don't accept dod wipes, they have policy that they must be destroyed. The hip secure disposal method these days is shredding them. Practically speaking, dod wipes don't cut it when you use stuff until it fails because you can't perform the wipe on broken hardware, and you can't verify it's broken enough the data is gone. It's the answer to why not reuse it. When you reuse it and then it fails, how do you make sure the data is gone? When the on board controller goes, and you don't have a spare, but can't guarantee a recovery place doesn't, how do you make it safe to dispose of? You destroy it physically.
  21. Based on how they performed for a guy at the ob carbine match. Total crap.
  22. Ok. NRR numbers are fubar in general and double fubar for shooting. The EPA is reworking the methodology and it will soon (in theory) change to a two number rating rather than one. The high one will be the nrr achieved by the 98th percentile of motivated trained users. The low number will be the nrr achieved from the 80th percentile of mouth breathing retards who don't pay attention to most of the instructions or are making poor pairings of equipment. Some protection is less likely to fit right under certain conditions. Like muffs with shooting glasses. The odds of gaping at the temple pieces is high with muffs and essentially zero with plugs. Beyond that, the nrr is an average across the standard test frequencies for the rating (8 from 125 to 8000 iirc). One set of muffs can be 27 across the board and be a 27. Another could be 36 for one range and 22 for another etc. and be a 30 overall. That high number muffs might be off the charts at high frequencies and be awesome for a cabinetry business running cnc routers and table saws, but suck for shooting. Then there's the fact the nrr is geared to SUSTAINED workplace noise. It is not an accurate number for short impulse noise with a high intensity. The absolute best combination of protection and function IMO are active muffs over 33nrr disposable foam plugs. You can hear everything nearby just fine and it really protects. The HL muffs work just fine in this role. As stand alone, I wouldn't use them because they tend to be slow. This basically means that wearing them doesn't get you a nrr of 28 or whatever they are, which with perfect fitment would turn a 150db shot into a 122db noise. That would be for a sustained sound. So ROing that comped open gun indoors, subsequent shots are at roughly that (except it isn't 28 across the board), but the first shot when it isn't cutting out is probably more like 125db from loud headphones. My standalone choice are 33nrr disposable plugs. For active, the best are the custom fit plug like things with the digital circuitry based on hearing aids. They remap frequencies and have a slight delay in them so they cut out all the loud noise of even the short high impulse noises. They also cost like $1000+. But fitment will be perfect and hard to screw up with the best circuitry for the job.
  23. Goes back to at least 1993.
  24. Liar. That would imply delivery confirmation actually updates in something resembling a timely fashion. I get my usps stuff. I've had less problems from them over the years than ups or fed ex. With all of them it all really comes down to where you live and who covers your route.
  25. 50 isn't going through any of the back berms of any club in have seen. The primary issue is noise and run off. Skip a .308 off the range floor and that's bad, but you eat up a good portion of energy. .50 is still going to be carrying a LOT of energy. Just like rifle ricochet at a couple hundred yards is scary. .50 ricochet is frikin terrifying.
