Old School

Give me a yell when you hit the range and I'll spot for you. If it warms up I have some test firing to do too.

Hey numb nuts! We all know you need a background check when you fill out a 4473. What I'm saying is if you have a NJ FID Card you have had a background and mental health check. So... you may be exempt from getting an additional background check for a prospective buyer in a private sale.

My read is NJ is exempt from all this BS as by having a FID card you have passed a background check. Just really have to define how many you can sell. When would all this go into effect?

Cost, Cost, Cost !!!! Nobody can afford that stuff... But major corporations could and the Koch brothers could.

I'll answer your question with a question. Do you realize the artillery our Founding Fathers used in the Revolutionary War was borrowed from private citizens? Get the picture of what their intention of the Second Amendment was? And if you can afford a General Dynamics Cruise Missile you are on the wrong forum.

Just remember the two greatest dangers to your firearms are rust and politicians. Keep that in mind

A few things... As unfair as taxes are...No one should be conducting business for profit without paying taxes. The moral obligation to ONLY transfer a firearm to an eligible person does exist. (In free states many private sellers require a CWP from the purchaser, even for long guns) We should be able to own any class of weapon and the BATF should be abolished. The POTUS is a Constitutional Criminal.

That one question on a 4473. They should enforce the full penalty of the law if you lie.

Got it yesterday. I have to adjust it obviously. My wife and I laughed at the current adjustment. I need to loosen up the holster a little bit. But love it.

Bought a Miami Classic from Displaced Texan. Great guy to deal with BTW

Thanks but I just got a shoulder rig for Christmas

I read a few accounts of this incident. And this is the "Darwin Principle" at it's max! Do you believe this bozo crawled into a cave where a bear was in it's den and he says he was attacked? What a jerk! What a Boy Scout! http://www.nj.com/morris/index.ssf/2015/12/scout_leader_attacked_by_bear_scouts_uninjured_may.html

T - That's a nice upper and though not cheap ...Not really a bad price either

I kind of tricked you. The scoped rifle is not .223. But I do have a 223 identical to the one shown and the bare rifle, no glass no bipod is well under $1k with a real good trigger. BTW the 223 may go on the market and shoots a ragged hole at 100yds

Which one?

Do you want this or this? The 20 inch A3 is in your price range with a CrMo barrel. I'm not selling just saying

The question I have for you is how concerned you are with traditional look / aesthetics vs accuracy / functionality. The most accurate ARs consist of a billet upper and stainless steel barrels. Neither one which should break the bank. X-Caliber has hand lapped SS barrels for $235 +- ^^^^^ and what he said

You just want to make a mark and make sure you don't crimp the barrel. Like go around the barrel with a magic marker and scratch that. Cut it a little long and square it up with a fine mill file when done. Take a round needle file and SLIGHTLY chamfer the inside of the muzzle. Same on the outside with a flat needle file. Just to take the sharp edge off. Cold blue or use a bluing pen. Now just remember you cut off the choke.

If you're handy, can measure and use a square and a file it's cake. Score it with a tubng cutter. have at it with a hacksaw. Take the square and file and finish it up. Just remember not to cut it too short. When you are done put a cleaning down the barrel against a closed breach and the barrel MUST be 18+ inches. Good luck

So you don't like the following the top steering wheel technique?

Are you referring to the draw from right side, immediately use two handed grip and swing at shoulder height technique? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cute! But in a confined space you had better be exercising good trigger finger control. Like I said in a previous post, sweeping yourself in a vehicle right hand draw pointing target left is dicey at best. That's why I am leaning to a shoulder holster. You minimumize the sweeping of yourself and limit it to your left arm and only momentarily.

Bobby - That appears to be a nice holster but kind of defeats my purpose. I don't want to unholster when I get out of the car or have to remove a holster. You know us old guys pee a lot and and handling a firearm at each rest stop is a PIA. I have no idea what the aversion of some to shoulder rigs is. That you're gonna sweep yourself thing is a BS argument IMHO. Show me any right hand draw in a car and you are likely to sweep your left arm. Carrying in the console is slow. And, between the seat and the console is Mickey Mouse and not really concealed. Some guys carry under the steering column. But that's not concealed either. Oh the troubles of living in a free state! When I lived in Jersey I didn't have these problems, I had the "nanny state" to take care of my safety.

Thanks for the reply. You made my point. It's a royal pain to reholster when your getting out of the vehicle and do it discreetly. I don't like reholstering sitting in the truck. Yep Galco seems like the way to go. BTW I'm not new to this, I was carrying concealed in 1978. Just exploring what other folks like.
