Where I live (3 years) a flock of big ass crows will drop in from time to time. They are completely silent. If they see me they are gone. I think that means a lot of people are trying to kill them off and they try to keep a low profile. When they come to my property they eat bugs and stuff like crazy. So I keep quiet and watch them discretely. If they were CAWing or eating my corn (I don't have corn) I would blast the shit out of them. But they just come and eat my bugs. They are pretty creatures when they are not noisy or destructive.

Oh, Heck Yeah!!! The funny thing about that one I found on the internet is that the jackass actually typed the thing. Did he think his stamps would come back faster if he typed it? I buy most of my NFA through a corp. To avoid hassle of going down to the Sheriff for signature. Sheriff is cool and all, but he's in the city and it's a pain. I gotta find parking, check my sidearm at security, I hate going into the city. I see a suppressor or MG I want and I whip out Form 4s. Me and seller fill out two copies on the spot and I insert check and drop off in nearest mailbox on my way home. I don't even send them certified mail anymore. Sometimes I go to Classic Pistol in Southampton. They want to see your stamps if you shoot FA. Last time around, I gave the guy a classification folder with copies of my forms. He opens it up and pulls out the loose Form 4s. Says to me, "These forms are blank." I respond, "Don't you carry blank Form 4s? Never know when you might see something you want. Look at the form copies attached to the panel of the folder." Only bought MG or suppressor from a dealer 1 time. All my other NFA purchases have been private with no dealer. That's why I carry forms. Cash talks. I don't carry $500-$15K, but when I whip out checkbook and forms the seller sees dollar signs.

Here is an approved Form 1. Take a close look at the bottom right, reason for needing the SBR: http://forgedmotorsports.com/forum/files/form4_564.jpg Not the first to be approved for zombie defense.

Just out of curiosity, since nitroglycerin and nitrocellulose are ingredients of modern smokeless powder, does this mean TSA cannot discriminate smokeless powder from gelatin dynamite? The theme of this thread, for the most part, has been people concerned about shooting a gun (oh my!) and getting on a plane. As I pointed out, outside of NJ, almost everybody in the country has their s**t covered with these chemicals. TSA must detect them on a minimum of 20% of swabs. Obviously they don't care about it. Living in a state that makes firearms ownership criminal (with exceptions) can warp your mind and distort your perception of the real world.

Did you go down to Trenton and bang on office doors of the Committee members and reps of your district? When you do, email me and I will come with you. Until then, keep dreaming. Dreams are good.

Hey you'll get through it will take a little longer but with the proper ID and explanation you'll be fine. I Know, been there, done that. If the TSA has a bit of sense, but like every where else common sense can be lacking. TC What proper ID would that be? There isn't a bag I own that hasn't had ammo, loose grains of smokeless powder, and GSR and even burn marks on or in it. Since I don't have an X-ray machine, I'm sure I've inadvertently brought ammo or expended casings onto planes. It's pretty hard to find every little piece of that stuff. I have a computer case swabbed once that doubles as a gun case for SMG, suppressor, and ammo. It's been filled with spent ammo repeatedly, and it's been open at indoor ranges where the GSR was so thick in the air that I put on an OV relief dust mask. Proper ID meaning military, police, and commercial explosives contractor other wise exposure to explosives would be suspicious and need further investigation. TC So you are saying GSR will require some kind of ID and explanation or will not? I got lost in your transition to explosives.

No fingerprints for PA LTCF. Yeah, I know most of you guys can't get one, because you need a carry permit from your home state to get a non-resident LTCF from PA. Why don't you guys like the Utah permit? We get them like crazy in PA. Cheaper than FL. I'm sure there's a reason but I don't know.

You still have the issues with the federal NFA laws and would require a tax stamp for the firearm. However there are lowers that come registered as a pistol lower that have some restrictions. A Form 1 is required http://www.atf.gov/forms/download/atf-f-5320-1.pdf and the cost of the stamp is $200. the stamp must be received prior to the firearm being completed. I just want to clarify. Form 1 is to make an NFA item such as SBR, suppressor, etc. You do not need a Form 1 or a tax stamp to put an SBR barrel on a pistol lower. I think that's what you were saying but I found it confusing. SBRs are no less accurate than 24" barrels. Barrel length does not determine accuracy. However, if you are using irons, the site radius will be less. In that case your accuracy may suffer past 300 yards based on your skill level. And, of course, higher velocity (with same bullet) can be helpful in shooting at long range. SBRs are not intended for either of these situations. Agreed. Something I've only come around to in the past year. I'm really starting to like 16" bbl. The advantages of lower noise and being allowed to put on non-SBR/MG lowers outweighs 1.5 inches IMHO.

Pistol cal, eh? OK. Here is Max-11 on full auto RR M-11/nine lower. With Lage folder and Gemtech Viper suppressor. If you ever shoot this with subsonic ammo, it is the one firearm I have fired that truly took me aback. It's actually evil. I just took pics and they suck, if anybody wants a better one I can try to get one. I had to find my sucky camera for this (lost it recently).

PA has better gun laws (for the most part) and more prolific carry than Texas. "Texas" is sort of an NJ fable. Look to Delaware, Vermont, VA, Pennsylvania, Maine, and other NE states before traveling the country for a metaphor. On the East Coast, only NJ, MD, and NY suck. NJ being the worst. Mass sucks a little bit (AWB).

I say it over and over again. When it comes to Commie states, not all "antis" are dyed in the wool antis. They simply don't realize that guns are normal. Making the point that guns are normal has always been eye-opening to people in NJ. Teaching them that Shall Issue is law of the land in 39 states. One out of 14 people carry in PA. They've been brainwashed into thinking most people in the country don't want them around and they are something unusual. Since I moved to PA I've been discussing guns more often when I travel on business. Everyone everywhere has guns. Never do I talk to a handful of people and not have at least one say they have a carry permit. Very rarely do I meet a person at random that places the importance on guns that I do. When I tell them about some of my gear they seem surprised I would spend so much on such things. To the people of These United States, guns are like coffee makers. Get the ones you need to do the job or maybe something special if you are feeling frisky. Or, to enthusiasts, they are like guitars. There are no gun nuts in most of the US, only nuts (similar to guitar nuts or coffee maker nuts). Guns are normal. Carry is normal and the rule not the exception. Tell your neighbors.

It's not even a firearm (federally speaking). I had an 11.5" upper shipped to my house and I am not FFL. Then again, I don't live in NJ. I called NJSP once to ask about 11.5" uppers. Talked to their firearms expert. I wanted to bring an upper into NJ on my way to an office so on the way back I could drop it off to a guy in PA. I was told, "NO!" I think the guy was displeased I even own an 11.5" upper in another state. Then again, cops are normally a poor source of information regarding firearms laws (present company excluded). I have some good news. For all you guys desperate for the forbidden SBR fruit. I'm coming around to 16" uppers. I've been shooting a lot of other guys' 16-inchers lately and decided the difference from 14.5 is rather minor for me. 11.5" is nice but they are very very loud. Which is good most of the time! Not so good for everyday purposes.

That's a fantastic experience! For both you and your son! I'd love to get my hands on one. Sounds like it was not FA. So, yeah, it would be hard to judge the recoil mitigation system since you don't have a lot of experience with SMGs and didn't get to shoot FA. Have you fired a MAC or M11/nine in FA? At these high rates of fire you'd be surprised how important the comparison might be, even in 9mm (let alone .45). Many people shoot at indoor ranges where they never learn to control them. I really wonder what the Kriss is like. If I ever hear of an appearance at a subgun shoot I will probably take a flight. I think one of the guys at UT has one, but not naming no matter what

You don't mess around, do you? Nice rig.

The only thing 3 shot burst does is prevent you from doing something undisciplined. It provides no tactical advantage. Only administrative advantages. Pulling 3 shots is a breeze with FA on an M16. Many new people who are afraid of it shoot an entire mag in 15 perfect pulls - 2 round bursts, 100% consistent.

We will welcome you with open arms. Good luck!

You are absolutely right about ALL of what you said Those are the reasons, and the compromises. It can be hard to let go of a trigger when you think you are about to die. For the average Joe.

Nice rifle! I'd love to shoot one. None of my friends have one. I have a .22 upper so I don't think I'd buy one. Even though I want it Can't have everything I want

What's your round count on FA? I hope you're not current or former mil. I'm former mil. We are the WORST at FA. Not only is the training horrible but the doctrine ingrains a mindset that can never make FA effective. They do this for very good reasons. Or, maybe I should say, very good compromises. I taught a noob to shoot FA on his first mag. He listened. Usually takes longer with people that have extensive mil combat arms years. People think FA walks. If it walks, you aint doing it right. People think burst is better. Certainly bursts are good choices sometimes. But, if you can't shoot FA, your burst sucks. Even if you've shot bursts for four years.

Gun cleaning sucks. Even during weekly handgun trips I always come back with at LEAST two guns to clean. Four is common. When we go out and rock I have a minimum of 5 guns (counting uppers) that need to cool before I can even case them up to leave the range. Sometimes more. I don't even clean all my guns anymore. The beater uppers just need lube and a few bore swipes if I feel charitable. But the carry guns and the first line home guns always get at least an inspection and hasty clean. It's a serious pain in the ass.

If there is any shot at this get everybody you know down to Trenton and bang on doors and get these MF's on record. And chase them around the Statehouse. Make sure to bring constituents of the districts of important people on committee. If this is real, and you set it up, email me and I will come as well. If it is real, I will contact activist organizations in PA and see if they are willing to show up.

Thanks. Yeah, I try not to think about it myself. I'm not a rich man. I ride it like it's stolen. But I also take very good care of it. It's not just mine. It's also "ours." Thanks to FOPA, all MG owners should consider themselves curators before owners. We owe it to our brothers to keep the limited MG pool intact and in good shape.

Well, I think like that in some cases. I'm betting this would be an extremely expensive semi-auto subgun. I prefer my subguns FA. Also, although it would turn heads at the range, I don't find it particularly sexy. The appeal of the thing to me is the purported function. Everybody has their own thing I guess. Whiloe Statutorily possible in NJ, FA is Functionally banned. While there are people who have managed it, it's easier to get an unlimited carry permit than to get FA. Sorry, I should probably put something in my sig. I moved to PA 3 years ago. I carry in 32 states, own MGs, silencers, etc.
