No argument from me on the stupidity, but what I'm more interested in is if airsoft guns are ruled to be firearms in NJ or not. The legal standard can't be "it's not a firearm unless the public sees you brandishing it".

You have some very unique interpretations of NJ firearms law. As with the "loaded magazines outside of a firearm still count as a loaded firearm" theory, can you point to any actual arrests, charges, convictions or case history in NJ for this?

Low budget film with no filming permits hires actor to use airsoft pistol as a prop in a car chase scene in Woodbridge. Police called, actor arrested and charged with a possible Graves act violation. The article doesn't specify the charge - I'm guessing it's illegal possession of a handgun. Will be watching this as I've always been curious as how airsoft is apparently allowed to be in a "gray area" in NJ law - meets all the defintion of a firearm, but sold as non-regulated toys, not firearms, in many stores in NJ: http://pix11.com/2016/01/26/actor-faces-jail-time-over-prop-gun-used-on-movie-shoot/ Actor's gofundme page to raise bail/legal expense funds: https://www.gofundme.com/rawdeal

The Windham Weaponry Multi-Caliber System (MCS) is a groundbreaking new rifle that allows the user to convert between calibers by changing out the barrel, magwell, and bolt carrier group and utilize the same lower and upper receivers. The MCS is available in three configurations, and offers up to four caliber options in one AR platform rifle.

I concur. Never seen one in person but they're always well reviewed. Will be taking a closer look at them when I get my 1911.

Ruger PC4 (no longer manufactured) has both 9mm and .40 versions.

How's this for an option-a pistol caliber carbine that uses your current pistol frame and ships direct, no ffl needed: http://www.mechtechsys.com/

Oh, sure, they can charge me with provably false charges. Proof of manufacture is in the video, but perhaps as a safeguard I hire a lawyer in the state of manufacture to witness the drilling of the plastic and execute an affidavit that the manufacture was outside of NJ. Frame will be serialized in the state of manufacture as stated earlier. The threat of nuisance charges and take this plea deal to avoid expensive trial exists for any legal gun owner in NJ. Still looking for a charge that would actually be valid.

Duty One

No, I had not seen that. Curious to see more on how the mold works, but that sure is interesting. BTW, URL is http://ar15mold.com/ (no 's')

And the charge the judge would be deciding on would be.....?

Got an STI 1911 on the way, my first 1911. Have found some aftermarket grips I like for it. Can I assume all 1911 grips are interchangeable, or do different manufacturers/models have different sizes?

Thanks for reminding me. Never got a response to mine either. Is there a way to initiate contact outside of the request form?

Just kidding - nice stipple job. Soldering iron?

What would be the charge? Not trying to be a wiseass here, and sure, I could be arrested and held for a while, but without a charge I think I'd be released. Seriously, what would be the charge, because I can't think of anything I could be charged with. Not a felon in possession. Resulting firearm would be NJ legal. It's legal to possess firearms in NJ, that are NJ legal, that are acquired legally out of state. No registration required for firearms brought into NJ. Handgun was manufactured by me, but manufactured out of state. Transported according to exemptions. Something I'm missing?

I'm seriously considering buying a polymer handgun 80% frame and then video recording the entire process of receiving it in the mail, driving out of NJ, completing it just over the state line, stamping on a serial # of 'lweinbergsux123', putting it in a gun case in the trunk, driving directly to home in NJ, building it up into a functional handgun, driving to the range, shooting it, returning home and putting it into a safe. Then post the whole thing on YouTube titled 'Legal acquisition of a handgun in NJ without a background check and without registration'.

I'm thinking businesses are looking at it this way: "Concealed carry wasn't an issue for me, since my hoplophobe customers were mostly unaware. Open carry spooks 'em though, so I can't have that. If I don't want open carry, I gotta put an ugly big ass sign on my front door. Some open carry yahoo is probably going to end up giving himself a racing stripe down his inner thigh when he decides to take his glock out of his open carry holster and shoves it in his front pocket so he can enter the store. Screw it, what's another ugly ass sign, now that I'm already in for one..."

Anybody personally know NJGF user West Jersey?: http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/user/7786-west-jersey/ If so, would appreciate a PM. Trying to get in touch with him about a deal we set up.

Anyone use one regularly? Have any advice? I see Milwaukee, Bosch, deWalt and Kobalt all have something, as well as some lesser brands, with a wide range of pricing. I'm looking for something to extend my outdoor activity time in biting cold, might want to use it when riding a motorcycle too (have a 12 volt vest already, but really, REALLY dislike having to plug in and out getting on and off the bike).

No real story behind mine - a major variation on a nom de plume I use elsewhere online.

To be completely legal in NJ, the handgun ammo *BUYER* must be 21 or over and have one of the following: FID, Pistol Purchase Permit, or Carry License (and a pet unicorn, both equally probable): Technically, if you are a resident of NJ, do not have a FID, PPP or carry license, and order handgun ammo from an out-of-state retailer and take possession of it in NJ you have committed a crime.

1. Yes, buckshot can be fired from a barrel with a choke. Depending on the choke/ammo/wadding it may have desirable or undesirable effect on the buckshot pattern at different ranges, but you won't harm your firearm/choke or endanger yourself simply by shooting it. 2. Yes, you can re-sell shotgun ammo on a personal basis. There's no restrictions on the personal sale/transportation/possession of shotgun ammo in NJ that I'm aware of.

'Pretty much' sounds pretty definite. Got any sources for this actually occurring in NJ other than conversations with the counter guy at the gun store?

Tango down aimpoint micro cover. Cool design on this thing, like it much better than the "bikini" cover - the caps fold over to the left side and snap inside each other - nothing to worry about dropping/losing:
