I believe in punishment that fits the crime. Drug dealers and gun dealers cost lives and cause family destructions. Would the 10 other criminals eventually be caught anyway? How many people may have died at as a result of those illegal guns? How can you reconcile 7 years for the Brian Aiken case and similar ones and 4 years here? Is it fair the actual non-criminal doesn't have any criminal friends to deal away? I fully understand the system. However, dealing away to the point its a relative slap on the wrist compared to the crime vs all the cases that lacked any consideration because political bias is the motivation is unacceptable. If he got 10 years instead of 20 for trading in criminal cohorts, perhaps that would not offend my sensibilities as much. But to deal down to levels like this indeed bother me. Much the same that the guy that beat his child to permanent brain damage only getting 4 years does. Yet someone with an out of state mag in transition gets 7?

This is proof positive that its not about taking criminals off the street, its about assaulting the 2nd.

A bayo lug without ears is no longer a lug, its a rectanguler block of metal. If they can say the change making it no longer a lug does not comply with the law, then that could be said about all operations to make an AR compliant.

Have used almost every one out there. For most serious use, Ops2 Inc and Bobro. For decent cost effective, ADM. No Larue! I don't like half moon symbols ground into my rails.

Yes, BUT half may not be where its indicated on the power ring so its a good idea to test it and find out where half is and mark it on the power ring yourself.

It sounds like your asking if the value halves at half the power. Is that what your asking?

I have read the statutes and in "my" interpretation these are not constructive intent scenarios, they are outright possession as outlined in the statute quoted by Jackandjill. My interpretation of constructive intent would be having a lower at your house and knowingly keeping an upper that has a FH and bayo lug at a friends house. You can gain control and access at will constituting constructive intent. Im no lawyer so my interpretation could be wrong but that's how I read it.

Keep in mind the perspective. Those born and raised in NJ have a perspective gun ownership is fleeting and rare. But travel to TN, AZ, KY etc etc and its literally a flipped script. My company has a no weapons on work property rule. When in the AZ office I asked everyone standing around "ok who's packing?" and easily half lifted up a shirt and exposed their pistol. Double thumbs up from me and everyone went back to work. Cali office and even Pa office, not so much

Does a golf player only own 1 club?

I do remember hearing about this at the time it happened. I don't remember the details. But I think there was some issue with components used. This doesn't much deviate from the folklore category but Id keep digging if I were considering something fun in this category in NJ.

1300 is unrealistic. Double that and your in used territory....barely.(which is not necessarily a bad option)

I though maybe you were referring to .243wssm. Personally, every time I have run down these boutique calibers I came to the same conclusion, it just makes more sense to just go large frame ar. To the OP's original question, I would either look at the secondary market or take a look at Seekins. Seekins is probably the sweet spot of the most rifle for the least money but it is over your budget. http://www.seekinsprecision.com/

Please show me a .243win ar15. .243 is a 308 based caliber requiring a large frame ar.

Or when there is a big shortfall in components to manufacture ammo....

What's to talk about? Caspian doesn't build 1911's. The conversation would really be about the gunsmith or company using Caspian parts.

Some manufacturers build around the fact that 95%(probably higher) of the civy buying public is probably a less than 500 rounds a year proposition where other manufacturers build around what we (the 5% or less) consider important. .

6920! Modify as needed. Better to start with a known good base made from known good materials.

It sure sounds like they do, it just seems it doesn't absolve other companies from still having to pay a royalty so its probably semantics at this point. But in any case companies like KAC, FN and others are indeed in possession of the TDP. Its just that Colt is the only one in that price point. I do not know of the quality or attributes of the Civy FN but that's because Im a KAC guy

IIRC the US Army actually owns the TDP for the M4 at this time.

6920

Looking at NJ's definition, I think this would easily be determined to be a machine gun. You are getting two shots without two distinct pressings of the trigger.... 2C:39-1 Definitions I."Machine gun" means any firearm, mechanism or instrument not requiring that the trigger be pressed for each shot and having a reservoir, belt or other means of storing and carrying ammunition which can be loaded into the firearm, mechanism or instrument and fired therefrom.

Look up fed law 26 U.S.C. 5845(b). Note that the definition doesn't define a single pull of the trigger, its the single function of the trigger. I think it would be very easy to interpret the release of the trigger as part of the single function of the trigger. Frankly Im amazed this made it past ATF scrutiny. This is not to be interpreted as a position the law abiding public should be limited, only commentary on the existing framework.

I understand that but.... its still a single pull of the trigger resulting in more than 1 round fired. I get that they are breaking it down to two distinct moves.... but that's pretty thin. I wouldn't wait to get one if I were so inclined.

How is this different than a two round burst from a single pull of the trigger perspective?

Well I certainly agree about diverting.... I just think they wouldn't be able to spend it fast enough on something they want I don't count on unlikely anymore.
