Finally got an M1 Carbine
thats crazy! I was reading and saw pics of a guy who's granddad worked at H&R during WW2 and he was handed down an UNissued M1 carbine, unfired all original. Wonder how his grandpap got that?

Finally got an M1 Carbine
As many of you know I escaped to PA.... I was in the local fun store the other day and low and behold, a 1942 Inland M1 Carbine, all USGI original parts was on the rack. No pitting or rust whatsoever, and bore was nice and shiny. Stock is in good shape, cartouche visible and no cracks. Borecleaner cleaned a line in the stock where it must have run out but Im gonna refinish (using miniwax antique wood refinishing) and stain the stock with proper color. It is one that had adjustable sights and a bayonet lug added late in ww2 or shortly thereafter. I gave it some thought then asked them to put it on layaway for me. They make it too damn easy out at this store! The barrel was original stamped 12-1942. Original sling as well. Story is an older gentleman in his 80's sold it to the store bc he doesnt want his kids selling it when he dies (suppose he wants hookers and blow while he can haha). Woot - when I get it Ill post pics. Sorry for the delay. Here are the girls. I recently refinished the M1 Garand stock --- and have not yet done the carbine but will soon. The pics dont do the finish justice ... Fairtrimmers oil really made the garand stock nice... its from ~ 1954.

Got my license to carry
I hear you. It wasnt the wait in NJ for me so much as the letter to my employer from the police dept. asking to verify employment (I worked for a very large, multinational company). That was VERY intrusive. I just made my first PA handgun purchase on Saturday. I was in store, saw a Ruger LCP and decided I needed to have it. PICS (PA NICS equivalent), credit card swipe and I was done.

I get the message.
GoNRA - where in WV ?

Got my license to carry
Before you get too excited I moved to PA a number of months ago. Went to Sheriffs office just to ask for the ccw form. Instead, they said why dont you just fill the form out, give us $25, smile for the picture, and wait a few minutes. 15 minutes later I walked out with the CCW printed like a driver's license. Done. Seriously, I put 45 minutes in parking meter and had 15 min left when I got back. Unbelievable. PA should change their state motto to "Welcome to America, Fu&@ ya" I really miss NJ though... and still lurk these boards and will continue to do so. There is still hope for NJ in the gun law dept (I hope!).

Intercooler what do you plan on answering when asked if convicted on your app?

Minimum Vise Size for AR Work?
that size works fine for me.

Anyone get pulled over with firearms in the vehicle?
I dont think you have an obligation to advise them you have firearms in the car. In fact if you do I remember reading something that the po po then has the right to inspect them to ensure you are properly storing and transporting them. Why invite the man into you life? Not a good idea even if you are in the right.

Illegal Magazines
Not sure about people getting checked/arrested at a range, Im sure its happened before. But there have been plenty of charges in NJ for hi cap mags. Many arise out of another gun charge, i.e., Muffin with allegedly selling auto weapon to leo in NJ, or domestic violence arrests that precipitate weapons seizure and hi cap mag charges.

Necessary to check headspace after re-installing barrel?
The adams piston supposedly works great with that DD you are setting up. I think there are a few versions of the adams (with and without the one piece carrier). If you do a google 'shopping' search for the adams you may be surprised on the price range vendors are selling it for. If you get the version with the one piece carrier you can just add a bolt (no need to buy the whole standard bolt carrier then retrofit it). Good luck make sure you post pics of your complete build.

Necessary to check headspace after re-installing barrel?
did you buy the DD rail yet? Curious bc the omega from DD doesnt require barrel removal. Plus if you have a welded comp you wont be able to remove FSB assuming you have one.

FTF sale of a long gun - unmatching addresses
Here goes the shit storm. And in before Paul kicks my ass... The law says the FID holder needs to change their address within 30 days of moving. The law Does NOT say it becomes invalid. The only "permit" that becomes invalid is the pistol purchase permit unless extended. So the FID is still valid...but best case is for them to update it.

Laws against owning a SBR upper?
No reason to own a less than 16" barrel in the Peoples Republic of New Jersian period. Whats the point? It would be one thing if you had an AR pistol but thats next to impossible in NJ due to weight. Yes, you can have a barrel drop shipped to adco for perm comp install.

Sten MKIII
To the OP, you cannot stamp or otherwise fab your own receiver in NJ. NJ law preempts the federal law in that regard. The only way to be able to mfg in NJ is to get a NJ mfg license.

"California" ARs in NJ
this is not legal advice so dont go get yourself arrested but... the more interesting question is: If you use a bullet button like people in CA, does the semiauto rifle cease to have a detachable magazine and thus can have a flashhider/grenade launcher and bayo lug.

Ok to have "evil" AR upper if no lower?
I wouldnt chance it - just get the whole thing drop shipped to Adco he will take the lug off as well. Technically you wouldnt be in possession of a firearm, nor constructively possess an assault weapon since you dont have a lower. However, since adco charges like $15 to remove a lug (check on that amount) why bother since the extra postage for you will break even. Good luck and congrats on your purchase. EDIT- you can also mail your brake to adco separately just let him know you are doing that and include order number with brake.

Utah Non-Resident CCW Scams
I agree with Anthony. However, Florida will accept the Utah course certification as proof of firearms safety for a FL CCW... but as pointed out above the UT course must be taught by a UT certified instructor. Also just a note fingerprints for Florida must be done by a LEO and signed by them... I had mine done and bounced b/c a non-LEO did them. Didnt matter a few days after I got the deficiency notice I was in FL and got printed there in the livescan system (preplanned vacation).

New build AR-15

Muzzle break pin
ship the upper only to ADCO. They have a quick turnaround. Id advise against bringing the upper into NJ in the evil state its in to avoid any potential for hassle. Happy birthday...you have a great dad.
