yes they're still in business, yes their customer service is staffed with douchebags. Only way I'll buy something from them is if aimsurplus.com is selling it for them.

Be aware those things are reported to jam at least once per mag: http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2013/04/daniel-zimmerman/gun-review-usfa-zip-22lr/

Depending on how much of the hex head is left you might try a small hammer and punch with a fine/sharp point. Tap the punch perpendicular into the edge of the fastener head a few times to make a divot, and then lower the angle of the punch while tapping to apply force counter-clockwise on the fastener to loosen it. Use as low an angle as possible without slipping out of the divot. Have used that technique before on seized/stripped phillips head screws, but not on an allen head.

Have ordered ammo from Glen's several times pre-panic with no problems. They should be good to go.

Yes, I agree with the Sheriff getting arrested for destroying records. I don't agree with the Sheriff getting arrested for being a 2A/RKBA advocate.

THIS. He could have chosen not to arrest. Destroying the arrest record itself, that's a big deal to me. You don't want LEO's who are into tampering with records or evidence.

Only in New York do people brag about crap like this...

Recently removed one of those ace buffer tubes myself. There is a wrench flat on the end of the tube that should allow you to torque on it. Mine wasn't tough to get going, but if yours has any kind of thread locker on it then yes, hit it with a heat gun first (hair dryer likely won't get it hot enough). There are lower receiver vise blocks you can buy so you can really crank on it without damaging the receiver finish - I have one you're welcome to borrow if you're anywhere near the Morristown area.

Have fun and you might actually be grateful not having to worry about hypothermia. When I finished my first mudder I was shivering so badly I could barely walk. Going for a second round this fall in Englishtown.

Geoff, a very cogent argument and well delivered; I hope many other in attendance realized the hypocrisy. Thank you for your effort!

I'm pretty sure I can dig into my receipts from 2010-2011 and find an order from Cabelas of .223 PMC bronze 55gr FMJ at $5.49/box of 20. That was the lowest I ever saw for .223 brass cased FMJ "plinking" ammo.

Let's cut to the chase here (probably NSFW for some): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fnOmxR_qQ_Q

What's your source for that? I ask because I looked at the NYS/NYC laws on pepper spray in detail before and don't remember any restriction on bringing in pepper spray from out of state for personal use. The law has restriction on who can sell the spray in NYC, and it can't be mailed into the state by a seller, but I don't recall seeing any restrictions about possessing pepper spray from an out-of-state source and bringing it in for personal use.

http://www.aimsurplus.com/product.aspx?item=ARIOB129&name=RIO+Royal+12ga+00+Buck+2+3%2f4%22+5+Rd+Box&groupid=6 ~$150.00 all in for a case of 250 shipped to NJ. No qty limit that I can see.

Can I suggest adding two sentences which add context?: - "Recent NJSP NICS response times for firearms purchases, which used to be measured in minutes, are now being measured in weeks. In some cases this delay is causing pistol purchase permits to expire before the NICS response is received which effectively denies a prospective buyer, who has already passed a background check in order to receive the permit, of the ability to purchase a firearm at all."

What is the cause of the delays, then?

Welcome, and kudos on your patience and resolve in navigating the bureaucracy to get your FID/purchase permit.

Love my GSG-5 and probably will never sell it, but I'll never claim it is out-of-the-box reliable or easy to maintain. There are fasteners in the bolt and barrel clamp that need to be upgraded and loc-tited for long term use and the learning curve for splitting the cases the first time you need to do a detail/internal cleaning is pretty steep. Once you get it sorted and know what to keep an eye on it's a fun gun, but it's definitely an enthusiast's/tinkerer's gun.

Hrmm, not sure - is that a line being pulled or plastic "shrapnel" hitting the leaves? Either way doesn't bother me - if they staked out a feral hog for the sole purpose of making the video, fine by me. Yeah, wouldn't expect there to be much penetration as I doubt there's much of a "barrel" to focus the gas behind the projectile.

NJ Legal? And how long until there's a .410/20ga/12ga version?

Thinking outside the box with a radical suggestion - directly contact the officer who issued the ticket if you believe he has any sense of ethics/justice and show him the video evidence. Perhaps he might decide not to testify on NYC's behalf, or even testify against NYC's case. If the situation is as you describe it doesn't sound like you have anything to lose by attempting it.

I've seen the memo referenced before in other pro-gun articles, as in "The DOJ itself reports that magazine limitations and assault weapon bans will have little effect on crime", but not in as much detail as to the source of the memo.

According to the article this was a "one-off" levy, not a continuous rate, but I bet it's still going to drive those with resources and mobility out of France.

Sigh... no, I wasn't and neither were you. I'm taking the thread at face value. The OP in thread did post this as the complaint filed against him: Maybe he completely made it up. I don't know for certain. Based on his writing I don't get the feeling that he would have made the quoted section above up, but I wouldn't swear on it. You seem to have reason to doubt it, so I'll ask you again for the Nth time, what do you know that isn't posted in the thread that leads you to dispute it?

I was specifically asking Vlad what he had heard that was not posted in the thread. Yes, in that thread the transportation was improper, but the fact remains that he was initially charged with an assault weapon charge due to an LEO's less than exemplary knowledge of NJ firearms law.
