Getting a Bolt Action?
If you are buying a bolt gun to get into precision shooting, most 7.62x39 surplus may not be accurate enough for you. At 200 yards, consider a 223 bolt gun.

Tinton Falls Permit Question
1) Squeaky wheel gets the grease. Be polite, be firm, be persistent. Call them. If you get nowhere, ask for an appointment with the Police Chief, If that goes nowhere, ask for an appointment with the mayor. It is important to document each interaction. Most importantly, be polite. Also, join the NJ Second Amendment Society. They specialize in getting towns to follow the law regarding issuing firearms permits and id's. Go to the www.nj2as.com website. They have steps to follow. Believe it or not, they work! 2) You are allowed to bring in firearms that were legally purchased when you were a resident of another state. The only catch is that they must be NJ legal (i.e. 15 rounds or less in the magazines, not on the NJ Assault Weapon list or substantially identical to one on the list). There is a thread in the rifle section that tells whether the gun is legal here or not. No documentation is required, but you can make a photocopy of the appropriate section of the law and circle the part pertaining to you if you are worried that a police officer might not know if it's legal or not. Registration of your guns is completely voluntary. I would recommend that you NOT do it, but that is your choice of course.

That's good. I would consider posting elsewhere if it the spelling were better.

Wasr 10
Wow, $900 WASR reminds me of this forum back when President Obama was first elected. Brick Armory had them for that price and Tinyboy bought one. .

PK90 - was hoping to get your perspective on current state & future market prospects of guns/ammo availability
Not in NJ they don't. Everyone who owned an AR15, AK, etc before NJ AWB became an instant felon the day after the registration window (which was poorly advertised, of course) expired. Even New York recognizes pre-ban/post-ban mags. Not us. Will it be different at the Federal level, who knows? I wouldn't automatically assume though that we would be compensated.

I can only hope that someone gives Piers Morgan the Dan Rather "Kenneth, What's the frequency?" treatment, an inexplicable beatdown.

"Cheaperthandirt" suspends online gun sales
With so many other options, why would anyone ever consider them?

Rob was prompt and no hassles. Great buyer.

Glock trigger
I drop a tiny bit of oil on the cruciform and it smooths out the action.

Common sense on firearms
Great article. Shared it.

Cheaper Than Dirt suspending online firearms sales immediately
Cheaper Than Dirt can fold for all I care. They were one of the WORST gougers when Obama was first elected and there was a shortage of reloading components. I said as much on their Facebook page. Judging by the overwhelming negative to positive ratio of the comments, they must realize they stepped in it.

Yugo SKS in the fine state NJ
I am just the opposite. The Yugo is a tank of a gun when a much lighter one could be had, considering it is shooting an intermediate round with little recoil (i.e. think stamped AK). I much prefer the Chinese, or any other country's version really. Now if I could actually launch some grenades, then I would be psyched to have a Yugo.

M4 Type Carbine recomendations?
Bushmaster turned to crap once Remington bought them anyway (so did Marlin). Buy quality, especially if it might be the only one you are ever allowed to own. Colt, Noveske, Daniel Defense, LMT, Bravo Company.

PTR-91
I bought the $30 rail. It has worked fine for me so far, but most of my shooting is with irons anyway.

Contacting AG office
Forget about it. That was the law as written, but our liberal court system says that a town can take longer if it's in the interest of public safety, effectively superseding the 30 day timeline. A town will always use that as its excuse.

Blake is a nice guy. Prompt payment. Great buyer.

Not gun related- need to hear reviews on dealerships- Brad Benson Hyundai or Freehold Hyundai
Any car dealership you're interested in going to, check the Better Business Bureau online and see what their rating is. Brad Benson car dealership is all F's across the board.

PTR-91
I never thought it kicks badly. It does have a pronounced ka-chunk and sproing with that spring driven piston going back and forth

Heritage Guild --- Rahway
Yes and no. You can save a few hundred bucks on a nice 1911 or AR. On a Glock or M&P the difference is not so pronounced, I agree with you. And Rahway Firearms Guild is a nice place. Prices are a little high, but I have haggled them a little lower. Nice folks there. Steve? (younger manager there) was especially helpful.

PTR-91
Just don't switch back and forth between the two ammo types, or you will wonder where the hell your shots are going. The POA is WAS different. Maybe use the optics for one and irons for the other.

The Wolf Steel cased ammo works fine. I think it may be hotter than the surplus military 7.62 though. The point of impact is a good deal lower than it is with milsurp. The ability to shoot steel cased is a big reason I sold my M1A Scout Squad and got this.
