Out of State Rifle Purchase - Am I Missing Something Here?
Well the incident in Woodbridge was really the employee and the manager robbing the store, so Dick's was the victim, but they should have had better safeguards in place. I've bought a gun from them, and their artificially inflated lengthy process is pretty annoying. Pack a lunch and lots of patience.

Out of State Rifle Purchase - Am I Missing Something Here?
Manager and Employee where adding "extra" guns to customers 4473 forms after they left, then sneaking them out the back door in trolling motor boxes. They were then sold to a local sporting good store for resale. The sporting goods store no longer has their FFL.

Out of State Rifle Purchase - Am I Missing Something Here?
I thought of the same thing - In fact, I asked the VA State Police about this whole situation via email, including what happens to the paperwork I filled out. Here's what they had to say: "You are correct that Virginia law does not prohibit the purchase or possession of a long gun by any resident of any other state. However, the Federal Gun Control Act allows the firearms dealer to sell or transfer rifles or shotguns to residents of other states if in compliance with the laws of their customer

If you REALLY want an adjustable stock on your AR...

What makes a good Trap Shotgun?

I would have demanded that the federal form be ripped up/shredded in front of me if I was not actually going to be allowed to purchase the gun. You do not want that gun in your name if you don't have it.

Damn, I dig those Triangle Hand guards. If I can get a pair of those, will they fit on a standard 20" AR? and would I need to remove the break?

Can you say Recoil?
Obrez! I think that particular picture is a photoshop, but there is documented evidence of them actually being made and used. There is a guy on Youtube who has a NFA Obrez, and it doesn't seem THAT bad.. (But I also like to shoot 12 gauge from the JIC one handed). I've been kicking around the idea of making a NJ legal obrez.. (16" barrel).. but haven't found a suitable candidate yet.

1 gun a month law questions...
The 30 day rule only applies to handguns. There is no "waiting period" for long guns.

A way around the 15 round magazine limit?
I'm sure it's all a joke. If you actually go to the site, you'll see the "belt-fed" AR feeds *INTO* the ejection port. But that M77 m14 mag conversion is sweeet.

Undecided on revolvers
That is true (although I am only talking about revolver locks). But I have yet to see a documented case (or even complaint on the Net) of a Ruger lock or Taurus lock self-activating. Ignoring the political aspect of putting locks on guns, the fact is that S&W's revolver lock is a bad design. The lock "flag" that sits in a parallel groove with the hammer and pops up when the gun is locked, is directly in line with the guns recoil forces. This allows the flag to pop up at inopportune times, effectively preventing the hammer from moving and jamming the gun. It is especially pronounced in light guns in hotter calibers like 357mag and up where recoil is stronger and not offset by a heavy frame. The Taurus revolver lock is in the hammer. The Ruger revolver lock is in the grip frame (you actually need to take off grip panels to activate it). These are much better designs than the S&W. I think a lot of the lock nay-sayers would come around to S&W if they came up with a better design. S&W changed hands quite a few years ago and was bought by the company who designed the lock mechanism, "Saf-t-lock" IIRC. Possibly why they still remain. I saw a youtube video where the lock is easily removed, but to HAVE to do it on a brand new gun is stupid, I agree.

Ammo Sales
Not sure of the actual laws, but I know when I bought powder at Sportsmen's Center and 777 at Cheyane, they recorded it and asked to see my drivers license. I've bought primers in person without any ID.

How difficult/expensive is it to open a range?
IMO - RSO's are required at an indoor range. Furthermore, I would not want to see the projected insurance costs for a new range without RSO's... There are private clubs where there are no RSO's at the indoor ranges, but this isn't exactly what the OP was talking about because those clubs are open to the public.
