It's a weak and dilute base but you definitely don't want to leave it hanging around on un-protected aluminum:

Caution on simple green: It is a weak base (opposite of acid) and will eat into aluminum. I doubt it would react enough to cause mechanical/structural damage, but it can mess aluminum up cosmetically. Just a heads up in case there is aluminum in the knife somewhere, like in the handle.

Same thing happened to me. Excitement at getting the safe in place quickly tempered by how close to full it was once I put all the ammo and guns in it... Congrats! Next up consider getting a dehumidifier for it if you don't have one already.

Yup, you need to get another couple turn or two of the magazine catch so that when you push the magazine release button with your finger the catch doesn't extend past that raised "circle" that is bisected by the magazine catch slot on the left side of the magazine well, like so: The above is as far out as the catch should go when you press the mag release button with your fingertip. You should not be using the "point" of your finger to push the mag button deep into the channel, just the "fingerprint" part of your finger, so that the mag release button stops flush with the side of the magwell. You may need to push the mag release button in with something longer/narrower than your finger that (like, say, a blunt end of sharpie marker)that will fit inside the magazine release button channel in order to get the clearance necessary for the catch to screw it on a few more turns.

Congrats on persevering through all that red tape. That's determination!

Just read through the thread. Generous offer Shane, much appreciated, but can't justify it right now. Hope it works out well for everyone involved.

No mention of medicines - Asthma inhalers, insulin, blood pressure meds, pain meds, anti-depressants.

Will do. May I ask when is the meeting is so I can judge if regular first class will make it in time?

Your impression is correct Yes, that's what it says IN THE EXCERPT YOU QUOTED. Now go to the FULL statute (try here, bottom of 4th page: http://www.state.nj.us/njsp/info/pdf/firearms/062408_title13ch54.pdf) and **CONTINUE** reading past that point and you'll see another section that defines the following as an assault weapon: This means a semi with >6 capacity, a folding stock, or a pistol grip is an assault weapon. Not 2 out of the 3, ANY SINGLE ONE OF THE 3. No Yes, limited to 6 in the magazine, one in the feeder/chamber (6+1). Your source doesn't quote the WHOLE statute. Yes, it is very confusing to have a more "lenient" definition of an "assault weapon" semi-auto shotgun first, followed by a stricter one in a different section. Just another example of how hastily and poorly thought through NJ firearms legislation is.

I have a variant of the above (CAA/Command arms accessories light/laser) that I use on my CX4 storm 9mm with a remote switch. Happy with it on *THAT* rifle. Haven't tried it on a handgun. However, it won't hold up to shotgun recoil; the first time I tried it on my 12 ga semi the battery door came open after about 2 shots and stopped it from lighting/lasing. I have 2 - I'm keeping the one on my storm, the one on my shotgun will go up for sale shortly, not sure what I'm going to replace it with yet.

Can't access the forum during most days (work blocks anything firearms related) and relatively new to the "gun world" so I soak up more than I dish out. Like to contribute where I can.

I've got a couple of boxes of those too. Lotta recoil on those loads!

Hornady Critical Defense. Is not "defined" as a hollowpoint round according to the NJ State Police internal correspondence PK90 shared with us a while ago...

Perhaps this might assist the original poster in making a decision on a HD load: The Box of Truth compares penetration of various shotgun rounds: http://www.theboxotruth.com/docs/bot3.htm

One thing to consider - a lot more variety in shot shells in 12 gauge as opposed to 20, including non-lethal rounds.

Constitution Arms in Maplewood fits the above description - does not retail firearms, works out of his house. He's not the cheapest though - $50 out the door for FFL transfers.

Heh, just revisited this thread after searching for it in reply to another thread, and I see CTD is now selling the two-pack for $9.97 instead of the $25.00 they used to sell it at. Tells you all you need to know right there...

Whah!? Good quality? Not in my experience, if you're talking about those KCI ones.

Ok, ok, I'll make a point to make a visit out to his place. Does he sell glocks?

I bet that officer is catching some flak back at the station....
