Well, if you are planning up North I am a Hotel Manager in Westchester, NY. We have meeting space if you are looking to do any events.

While they CAN inspect, it must be done at a reasonable time. Exactly. The ATF are not going to kick my door in and repel off the roof jumping into the windows demanding to look at my book. I would like to see that...

C&R is not considered a "Dealer" License in NJ. I have no worries and the ATF can search my home if they want. ...haters!

So I am in the process of applying for my C&R license to get the discounts but forgot to tell my fiancee about it. I was getting ready for work and she comes running in and starts yelling "The FBI are here and he wants to speak to you! What did you do!?!" Well, after getting her up to speed, Al came in and I was really surprised. The ATF agent was extrememly friendly and informative. He looked at my safes and gun locker, told me about the C&R license, proper record keeping and all of this with one of my Pugs on his lap. +1 to the ATF . -1 to New Jersey for not recognizing it :x . Oh well. if you have a C&R, how do you go about using it for eligible discounts? Just ask?

Yeah, I probably will keep the stuff. Anybody with an M1 want some free ammo? Just tell me how you did at the range.

No problem at all. I may just sell the 30-06 stuff. Don't want this to happen... http://www.g503.com/forums/viewtopic.ph ... c6c88c0ea3

I have no Speer. I will check online.

I have a few manuals that each mention anywhere from 54-61 grains for the 30-06. The confusing part for me is the bullet grain is from 150-165 so I'm not sure where to start. I hear that a load for the M1 doesn't go by the manual due to the gas cylinder and operating rod. I also don't want to be a story like the one where some guy's M1 explodes into pieces. I reload 9mm and 40. This will be my first time doing a rifle caliber.

I need some help using these components. I am loading for an M1 Garand. I have 150 grain Hornady bullets (ones with little lead tips) IMR 4895 CCI #34 primers How many grains of powder do you suggest? I know that M1's gas system can be very picky when it comes to things like this. -Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Looks like I started an AK discussion. I know nothing of AKs right now. When you mentioned some refining, what do you mean? Polishing some parts, deburring, etc?

Haha...we both did. Hodgie, Thanks for the info. Will look into it. I don't know the guy's name at the Bullet Hole but he was really nice to both of us. He showed her a new AR and discussed some pistol options for her. I really like the new ARs! I have been looking at the WASR AK-47s as well on Gunbroker. Anybody have any experience with them? Wait...are AKs on the banned list? :?

So I went to the Bullet Hole tonight with my Fiancee. I just got my first Mosin Nagant 91/30 and she showed a lot of interest in shooting it. We moved the target all the way back and she stepped up for the first shot...it was dead center in the shoot n' C target! :clap: So now she is hooked. Are the M44's lighter? She complained that it was a little too heavy for her to be comfortable. We are also going to be investing in a recoil pad! :oops: We also shot the little Jennings J-22, which is still very accurate but did have a few jams, a Mossberg 500a and an M1. Running out of ammo for the M1 so I am considering trading it for an AR... not sure yet.

The website says public/member. $7 entrance fee for a visitor. I may have to just stop. Looks like it is just trap.

I would be interested in meeting up with a few of you who go here. I just got a Mossberg 500a and haven't used it yet. I hear the place is a little intimidating to newbies :shifty: -Thanks!

Yeah, looks like a great time. I did some clay pigeons at Sunset and loved it. Went out and got a Mossberg 500a but haven't used it yet. I heard some stories about the guys at the Fairfield place are intimidating the newbies. If anyone is making a trip there...I am in! I would rather go with some experienced folk than by myself.

Like Thai? Bankok Garden in Hackensack is the oldest Thai (and the best) restaurant in Bergen County. Don't forget the green tea ice cream for dessert.

Thanks for clarifying for both of us. So bottom line is that a C&R is useless in NJ except for any discounts that one can get from certain shops and online sites.

A friend on mine uses one of the Homak gun cabinets. His house was broken into last year, either they were amateurs or left early but he said the whole side was bent and hammered and still kept locked. He claims that it was because the left side of the cabinet was against a wall making is difficult to force that side out. Who knows.

Okay, I'm sure you are all tired of answering this question but a friend and I need some expert advice. If he has his C&R license, can he go on Gun Broker dot com, buy an old pistol and have it sent to his home in New Jersey? If he does, does he need a pistol permit for the C&R pistol so he can legally go to the range with it? If so, can he get in trouble keeping it at home while waiting for his permit if he doesn't have a new one yet? And finally, If he does need the permit for a C&R pistol after having it shipped to his home and receiving it, does he have to go to a FFL with it so they can do the NICS? Thanks! :?:

Yes, I have an M1 from Tony as well. Couldn't be happier with it.

I was at a small gun shop in PA a few months back and they had a case with a sign that said "Buy backs" as a joke. They had very rough Lorcins, Brycos, A few beat up Hi-points, some rusty single shot shotguns, etc. Everything was about $50-$120. If I had a rusty old single shot 22 rifle that I never shoot and couldn't even sell it for $50, hell yeah I would hand it over. Well, maybe...

I got one for you... Sorry in advance. And no, it's not me.

In Hackensack, it took me about 3 months for my initial FID and pp. I applied for another back in August. One of my references did not receive the letter so I called the Seargent. He said give it another week so I went to the station and picked up a reference letter from the clerk. I hand delivered it to my reference who had sent it in. A week later I call the Seargent and he then says he never received it and to give it a week. I went back to the station, got another letter from the clerk (Who is great, by the way for giving me these letters) and had it completed by my reference and hand delivered it to them after it was completed. I waited another 3 weeks and got the letter that the permit was ready. All in all with these little kinks in the process, it took about two months.

HAHA! :clap:
