Bullet Hole =)
People have plenty of nice things to say about some gun shops and ranges in New Jersey, just not many about the Bullet Hole. I know plenty of folks that like it there. There are a lot more that don't based on what gets posted here and elsewhere. I never liked it much back from when I used to live in Jersey City. I would go to the Hoboken Range or drive all the way to Paterson Rod & Gun Club to avoid it.

Motor Vehicle Accident While Transporting Pistols
The article was in the NY Times, but was not firearms related. It had more to do with land use restrictions that brought criminal charges. Think EPA.

Aimpoint Pro Mount
I was thinking a cheek riser on the stock as well. Maybe something nice, like on the Garand Sniper guns (M1D?).

Motor Vehicle Accident While Transporting Pistols
I have read a few articles where it seems that is the case less and less these days. People being arrested and charged for things they didn't know were laws. The problem is the laws were so obscure (i.e. environmental, or zoning) that no one except scpecialists in the field would ever know it.

Yeah. I have had to make the drive to a Farmingdale ATM once or twice.

22 revolver for home defense?
If you need a 22 revolver, consider 22 magnum. It is a much more powerful round, yet is completely controllable like the 22LR.

My new toy...
Hey John, This Springfield Armory that makes M1As and 1911s is totally unrelated to the Springfield Armory from American history that supplied our fighting men. I'm not knocking SA (I have owned and currently own their products) but thwy are cashing in on a famous name.

My new toy...
I'm glad you got the rifle you wanted and that the SOCOM II "shortcomings" were overblown. Let me know if you are interested in trying a side by side comparison with my Scout Squad. I shoot at Central Jersey rifle.

Clarification ... Issuance of Handgun Permits
Nope. That is pure horseshit. Contact New Jersey Second Amendment Society. www.nj2as.com They handle police departments that like to flout the law when it comes to issuing permits.

Problem switching handguards
Unfortunately, I think this is the case.

Buy 5.45 Saiga or build 5.45 AR
The only question i would have about an ar in 5.45 is the use of corrosive ammo. I rarely clean my AR. I just keep it wet. I imagine you'll be cleaning after each use, even with a chrome barrel. But I suppose you will be doing that with a Saiga too. It will just be easier with the Saiga. I went with the Saiga in 223 for ammo commonality and availability, and the cleaning issue.

spare parts
I don't think it's common, but you will be gunning hard and it would suck to have your expensive training weekend cut short. Also, flip up sights, even the good ones, are not as durable as fixed ones. Bring spares.

spare parts
Trigger and hammer pins, in case they walk and fall out. Case extractor. Full set of springs. Ideally, A spare upper.

AR-15 Lower Legal Question
No problem. Just to be clear though, you can't be in possession of ANY upper that would fit on the lower, not just the intended upper. In other words, if you already have an AR, any AR upper you buy must be trrated as a whole rifle (i.e. AWB compliant). Good luck. I have the NJ neutered Colt 6940. Great rifle. I have been accused of being an AR snob though.

AR-15 Lower Legal Question
Don't change the stock. Have your FFL put a pin in it. If you don't own an upper that could turn it into a complete rifle (and make constructive possession), do it yourself. That way you can pin the stock at the correct length for you. Most of the fixed stocks are set at max length. Unless you are big, or plan to mostly shoot from a bench, that is too long for most folks.

You won't regret the 700P. Great rifle. I went with the Savage, but liked the Remmy just as much.

Why do we as Americans refer to our country as "free"?
It's also becaue most of their donors are/were liberals who hate guns. No point in using resources to fight for something most of your members don't like.

The happiness of those first rounds
What press? The Dillon only does taper crimps, which I prefer. It's the strong loads with slower powders that need a tight crimp. The bullet needs to be held in place for the pressure to build up. You will know you don't have enough crimp if you find unburnt powder flakes in your cylinder. Fast powders like Bullseye don't need that tight crimp.

NJ AWB is too weak???
If you had left out the disclaimer, you'd have been OK. Your capitalization could use some work though. .

Obtaining a copy of an old permit
Are you doing it for sentimental reasons? You don't actually need it any more.

It's just that I enjoy it more. I get a different type of enjoyment from slow shooting precision in my Savage, but honestly it is not as much fun to me as taking out the PTR91 or M1A Scout Squad. Different strokes for different folks.
