Question about mag capacity...
Within NJ, only an FFL can possess a magazine over 15 rounds. So your two legal choices are have an FFL like Paul at Arms & Ammo receive and modify them for you, or travel to another state like PA then buy and modify them yourself before returning to NJ. There is no paperwork, which actually makes me a little uncomfortable. I don't like the idea of having some cop see "17" stamped on the side, leaving the burden of proof on me to prove to him on the spot that I'm actually legal. Plenty of folks here do it and I've never heard of anyone having a problem, but I prefer to avoid any situations. My solution to the high capacity 9mm dilemma was to buy the S&W M&P. S&W manufactures a factory 15 round mag just for NJ so you can be legal without a fully neutered 10 rounder. They earned my loyalty as a customer by supporting us poor NJ schleps.

Can you imagine a similar permit required to read or write a book?

new sig 226 elite failure to feed problem...help
The pistol is malfunctioning, I don't know what there is to talk about or get back to you about. They should give you a shipping label so you can send it to them for warranty service.

M&P9 Fullsize FACTORY 15 rnd mags available
I've never seen them listed on the S&W website but if you call to order part# 39498 they have them in their system. You can also try calling G&R Tactical at (330) 343-2800, they included the NJ 15 rounders when I purchased my M&P from them and they tend to have excellent prices.

Hmmmm
Like labor unions and the NAACP, the NRA once did good work but has since become institutionalized, bureaucratized, and more concerned with maintaining it's own existence than it's stated mission. It's now more of an industry association than anything else. I think the SAF is the most effective organization for 2A issues today.

Respirator for gun cleaning
I use Mpro7/Hoppes Elite for cleaning, and Weapon Shield CLP and grease which are not toxic like Hoppes 9 or some other cleaning chemicals. It might be a little less effective but I'd rather reduce the number of toxic substances in my world when possible.

Petition to change NJ CCW laws!
Guys, change.org exists merely to harvest email addresses to sell to spammers. Nothing of value will come from it.

3 things you did not know about the Islam
It seems again that liberty, freedom and the Constitution only apply to things we like and agree with. The irony is that the most radical imams in Pakistan and Iran agree 100% with this attitude. We're becoming more like them every day. Who is really destroying America?

Smart Gun Imminent?
Like most gee whiz technology intended to find easy solutions to complex problems, it's awesome except for the part about not actually working reliably. Ask anyone with a fingerprint swiper on their laptop (I had one for a while) about how bad these things can be. Of course, it only tends to fail when your finger is too sweaty, or too dry, dirty, or if you didn't swipe it perfectly straight, too slow or too fast, or if it happens to be Tuesday. None of these would be much problem in an emergency defense situation.

Grip modification legal for IDPA SSP and USPSA Production
Thanks guys. I'll look at some of the precut grip tape options.

Look Radek, I'm sorry I hurt your feelings in doubting India's ability to source the parts, manufacture, and distribute tens of millions of units for $35 a pop. You've convinced me that this little prototype is so incredibly fantastic that it's awesomeness transcends such mundane considerations like actually building it in quantity for such a low cost. And with India's incredible track record of efficient, ground breaking manufacturing technology there is really no reason to doubt the inevitable success.

That's so much hot air. The prototype was demonstrated live and people have actually tried it out! This is NOT a simulation on a computer, it's a tablet computer! I know, because I talked to couple of colleagues I know from my institute and they saw 3 prototypes with different set of feature connectors, etc. If you know anything about technology, you would know such things can't be faked. Do you have any evidence that makes you so sure it's vaporware!? :naughty: Nope, no evidence anywhere of India's failure to help any of it's impoverished. Any high school geek can assemble a working tablet PC using parts from newegg. Not for $35, not anywhere near the volume they promise. I would like them to succeed but the smart bet in this space has always been on fail. Sorry.

Hellllls yeah! Now that's a use of the 1st Amendment I can get behind.

Muslims-Ground Zero mosque is meant to be provocative
Nick, I'm not trying to start a fight, but I'm having trouble understanding your line of thinking. I assume since you're here on NJGF that you believe strongly in the 2nd Amendment. I also assume you believe the 2A protects a fundamental right, not a privilege to be granted or denied to certain people, in certain cases, in certain places. So when an anti makes the case that the 2A might protect the right of someone in a rural area to carry a rifle to go hunting, but it does not grant the right of a urban NJ citizen to carry a semiautomatic pistol for defense, that you would disagree with them. A right is a right even if you don't like the particular circumstances in every case. So, do you not believe the same about the 1st Amendment? Does the 1st Amendment only apply to cases where popular opinion approves of the content of the speech and religion?

Muslims-Ground Zero mosque is meant to be provocative
I've read the Bill of Rights quite a few times. Nowhere does it limit freedom of speech or religion to cases that are popular or unprovacative. Rights are there for people you disagree with, not just for popular ideas. The Saudis or Iranians would never allow something like this in their home countries, and this is certainly a way for them to take advantage of our higher principles. Would you really want to use them as a role model for us? I for one want to be better than them, not like them.

Would competition or "race" guns make for good SD guns?
Can you elaborate? Curious to hear why.. Compensators work by directing muzzle blast up, right into your face. Not something you want in the dark, or if you are without eye protection.

Effects of denial
The nice helpful lady at the police station lied to your face. Seeing a therapist is not treatment for a psychological condition any more than getting a checkup at the doctor is a preexisting condition. This was a manipulative opportunity for her to dig into your confidential health records fishing for a reason to deny you.

No more NJ inspections for motorcycles
Hell might have frozen over. NJ actually removed one bureaucratic hassle from residents by eliminating state inspections for motorcycles. http://www.state.nj.us/mvc/Inspections/ ... Exempt.htm

Just another way for the state to say F- you for owning a gun in the first place.

Min headphone DB rating you should have for shooting indoors
I wear foam disposable earplugs in addition to my Howard Leight electronic earmuffs. Decades of motorcycling has taken a toll on my hearing and I cannot afford any additional damage. Constantly asking people "what?" gets old real fast.
