7.7 Jap ammo
You can buy nice 303 / 7.7J bullets for $29 / 100 at midway, no need to be casting your own. They also have new Norma brand (top shelf) brass available in stock. Lee has dies in stock at Midway for $28. So, you can be in business pretty easily...

Firearm Transfer locations
We're not talking about a temporary transfer here, we're talking about a permanent transfer. My last sales have been buying a rifle in a Best Buy parking lot in Bridgewater, selling in the parking lot of Cheyenne Mountain (3 times), and buying some components actually at a range.

Straw purchase or not?
Good link, thanks.

Straw purchase or not?
This sale would probably be illegal, but I think the definition of a "straw purchase" is when a person with the legal right to purchase a firearm does so for the purpose of providing that firearm to a person who does not have the legal right to purchase a firearm. If the first buyer buys a rifle legally, and then resells it to a second person who could have legally purchased the rifle in the first place (because they have matching, FID, DL, etc), then it's not a straw purchase.

father vows to kill his sons killer if released.
I agree completely. The father should kill the guy, but now he's going to end up in jail.

Saiga SGL24 @ the Range
Worst case scenario: Stranger: "Yo, kid, what's with that gun? Isn't it illegal" You: "No sir, it is NJ legal and also 922® compliant, and the magazines are 15 rounds, so it's fine." Stranger: "Hm, ok, thanks." Also, to quote Richard Feynman, "What do you care what people think?"

Atlas Shrugged
The movie will be better without brand name stars, I bet. If you have great source material, you don't need brand names. I wonder who wrote the screenplay? It doesn't really matter what the book says or how great it is, because it's going to be entirely translated by the screenwriter. The IMDB page doesn't seem to have a screenplay credit, although they do list a large "animation department." Also, IMDB lists this film as "Atlas Shrugged, Part I" so they're not going to get it all into a single film...

Why dont you just veto the 2nd Amendment?
It's an interesting problem, but without semi-illegal migrant labor in California, there would be no fruit or vegetables available from California, which would be a serious security issue for the US. There is none of the labor required to produce farm output available in the US, so we actually depend on them for both legal and illegal immigrants. Clearly that's only a small part of the problem, but if you close our borders there will be no California produce!

sp-066 - who witnesses
That's part of the standard NJSP forms - the SP-66 for mental health records. The PD requiring other forms to be signed - those are local (aka, inappropriate) additions....

sp-066 - who witnesses
I should buy handguns more than I do so I remember the process. It's harder with a PD that's cooperative but not in the station very often anymore. On the SP-066 Consent for Mental Health Records Search form, do you need to sign in front of the witness? Does the witness sign or print their name, and can it be a friend or does it have to be an official? It doesn't really have any information for this section of the form..... TIA

He's doing a lot better protecting the 2A than either of the Bush's or our governor. He may hate it inside, but he's not actively removing our rights like Christie....

New Jersey Firearms Guild in Rahway
That's a great price for that rifle. I am sure there are good buys at the NJFAGs, you just have to really know what the right price is to ensure you get a good deal.

New Jersey Firearms Guild in Rahway
I think if you think this you haven't been to many NJ gun stores. I can think of 5 off hand that have many times more AR-based rifles than NJFAGs, although they certainly have more now than they have had in the past. And they do have stripped receivers in stock, which is very convenient, if you are willing to pay 2x the normal market price. That said I did buy a rifle from them last week, after not having entered the store for 6+ months. They had what I wanted in stock (although completely different stock than what they told me on the phone) and I bought a used rifle that I'm very happy with. Gert is the man to talk to, as far as I'm concerned. Joe can be nice or not depending on unknown random factors. Matt is certainly knowledgable, but it also depends on the day. Gert took a few bucks off the price, too, even after I told him I'd buy it. Like other stores, they are certainly nicer when less stressed from a busy store, but for guys like me that work long hours, getting there in non-busy hours is difficult. So, I managed to get myself back in the store. They have a lot of stock right now, they also finally got a decent website, and they had a nice used rifle in stock that met my needs exactly at a decent price, so they are almost back in my good graces....

SAF v NJ (MULLER et al v. MAENZA et al)
A bunch of the Democrats may be anti-gun, but our asshat Republican governor has done more damage to the 2A in NJ than the past 2 Democrat governors were able to manage. Preventing the CMP from shipping antique rifles to accredited marksman in NJ is a step beyond what even the most ridiculously anti-gun states like Mass and Cal have been able to accomplish.

Hello! I am here to assist my Kids with rifle shooting
Pete, is there a local Boy Scout troop nearby they could join? Boy Scouts do both 22 rifles and shotguns in Summer Camps, and there are merit badges for both which they can earn through a merit badge counselor. If that's not possible, check the ranges near you (perhaps Central Jersey R&PC) for youth days, which are usually open to the public. CJRPC has a few youth programs, but they are only open to members and guests, but youth days are usually open. You might want to get a FID for yourself so you can buy a 22 rifle (cheap!) that you can use with your boys. -Dave

Stuff to buy at Midway
I'm just using it on a 10/22, so it will last forever. I don't really care so much for bipods. I either shoot with just holding a rifle, or use a rest.

How the border between pakistan and india is closed every day
England screwed India (and Pakistan) up so badly it's not even funny. They are just accentuating what the British soldiers do to this day in front of Buckingham Palace.
