Displaced Texan

Brilliant! The Mayor of Trenton comes to mind off the top of my head...

That's an interesting point from Ron Baraka....law abiding citizens CAN become criminals.....when politicians MAKE them criminals at the stroke of a pen.

I'd use a little jb weld in the hole to prevent the pin from being removed. There is really no set definition to making your stock non-collapsable. A roll pin is a generally accepted method, but NJ law does not prescribe HOW it is to be done, only that the stock cannot collapse. I have seen people epoxy the stock to the buffer tube. It meets the requirement, although I wouldn't agree that it the best or most effective method. Even a pin that is NOT drilled all the way through can easily be removed with a simple tool. One could use an appropriately sized 'ez-out' and remove the roll pin in a couple of seconds. The reality is that any way you do it, it's reversable.

Turning on ourselves isn't going to win this war. We fight in the ways we are able. Some go to the rallies, some call congresscritters. Some donate time or money. The important thing is we UNITE for our cause. Keep the fire in the fight.

Every time I heard myself bitching about how cold it was, I thought about Gen. George Washington and his men, crossing the Delaware River in freezing weather, only a few miles from where we stood, 237 years ago. If those great men could do that, I could suck it up for a few hours in the sleet.

I just wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU, to all of you who had the courage and strength to come to the rally today. Our show of strength today does NOT go unnoticed. Today was a very powerful day for me (and us), and y'all made me proud to be a NJ resident. To those who could not make it today for whatever reason, PLEASE make it a point to voice your support for the 2A. Write letters, make phone calls, and send emails to our politicians. Additionally , DONATE to NJ2AS, the NRA, NSSF, ect. We need your support. There is a march on Washington, DC on Saturday, May 25th. I'll be there, and I hope to see y'all there too. Stay strong, and keep the fire in the fight! Jeff

Join us!

Lol totally didnt think of you, Paul. I'll ring you next week and set something up. Thank you!

Does anyone know of someone in SNJ that does a pin and weld? Hopefully while I wait? I have an upper I'm about to send off to ADCO but if I can get it done locally and quickly I'd prefer that. Thanks!

That's ok, Tx Shooter. I'll represent!

I'll also be there. I'll be at Lindenwold Station before 8am, I'll be carrying an ACU pattern backpack. I look forward to seeing y'all, and showing our politicians in Trenton that we mean business.

I'm in.

I just received a 20" CHF Gov't profile premium upper from Palmetto this week. Delivered 22 business days after I ordered it. Haven't had it to the range yet, but will give a full range report when I do. +1 for PSA's uppers. http://palmettostatearmory.com/index.php/ar-15-05/complete-uppers/psa-20-hammer-forged-madness-stripped-upper-without-bcg-or-charging-handle.html

This is the company formerly known C-Products. They went through some 'issues' a couple of years back, and wound up moving to Fl. While I have largely switched over to P-Mags from Midwest PX, I have a dozen or so of the old Stainless Steel C-Products mags. They have been 100% over a few thousand rounds.

Thanks for that, Scott. Mags at sane prices!

I'm not a lawyer, and I don't play one on TV either. Nor am I trying to be argumenative. From what I have read, it IS a thin disctinction, but I believe I'm right.....and I believe you are right too. Depends on the court. Have a look at this: http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/Ex+Post+Facto+Laws

No grandfathering would not pass legal challenge, as it is an 'ex-post-facto law'. Unconstitutional. Period.

I too will be there on the 8th, and I'm passing it along to others. Jeff

The 'No Grandfathering' part of the law will be it's demise, as it makes it an 'ex-post-facto' law, and it will not hold up. If they do manage to pass this law in ANY state, or as federal law, they will HAVE to grandfather existing mags, ect. Don't anyone get your panties in a wad just yet, no laws have been passed anywhere. At this point it's just a lot of blowhard politicians running thier mouths. This IS the time to get engaged. Write your reps, on a State and Federal level and express your feeling in an INTELLIGENT and RATIONAL manner. We ALL need to be vocal right now, but we need to do it in the right way.

Pretty true. I don't think I know ANYONE back home who doesn't own at least one firearm. Hell, my 73 y/o father has a CCW, and doesn't leave home without it. Sigh....I miss Texas!

For what it's worth, the $1000 figure I threw out there was a pretty common price to see for these rifles before all this craziness started. Hell, I bought one brand new for that 2 years ago. The one you are marketing has the sear block, not a desireable feature. Also it will have the .170 FCG pins, and the large pivot pin. None of which are all that desireable by Colt fans . That's not to say that it isn't a nice rifle, because they are. Just less desireable that lowers with .154 FCG pins, small pivots, and no sear block. The point I'm making is that a couple of weeks ago, before all this talk of gun bans, these were all over GunBroker for ~$1K. A friend of mine back home in Tx bought one for $850 the beginning of December (without the sear block, and with .154 FCG pins mind you). With all this panic buying, it's worth what someone will pay you for it, but it's hard to come up with a firm figure. List it on GB and find out. Regards, Jeff

I'd put it on GunBroker and see what it goes for. I'd say a nominal value would be around. $1000.

I have 1/2 point convertible slings from Tactical Link, and the Z360 mounts on all my carbines. Allows you to switch back and forth between single and dual point configuration, repenting on your needs at the moment. Nice gear. I use a standard USMC 3 poi t sling on my rifle length AR.

This is correct. The four contact points on the BCG need a few drops of oil. Pat Rogers also puts a few drops into the vent holes on the BCG where the bolt bleeds gas off.

I just this morning received 7 15/30 Pmags from Midwest Px. Thanks Ty!!
