Tommy's one of your many Filipino customers

Everyone's disappointed when they meet him because of that.

Edit - Done. LMK if any other changes need to be made.

Ah ok! Yeah this waiting sucks. From the background check completion date to completion it took 8 weeks for me... so unfortunately it may be another couple months for you. You'll get an email from the FARS system saying they're ready, but they're still not actually ready for pickup until Rob at the Bridgewater PD emails you that they're ready for pickup. Previously, the last time I got permits, it took 19 days.

Welcome! I'm in Bridgewater as well by way of Union county as well. Note - your Firearms ID and Permits will take a good amount of time. I just got pistol permits from the Bridgewater PD (using the NJ FARS system), and it took 78 days due to the sheer volume of applications they are receiving. It may take you longer as you're an initial FID and you have to do fingerprints with Identogo. If you have any questions about the process, feel free to ask.

Huh. Apparently there's new guidance out.

I saw this on Reddit/Facebook - the back of the FID card was blank. NJSP F'd up and has to reissue it.

I submitted June 1st and got them last week - 78 days. Seems about right. However, if he submitted the 19th, you should have gotten the reference email immediately - it goes out right after the application. I did my buddy's application immediately after he submitted 6/3.

Nice photography! That sight looks a little low - you may want to get a riser for it. I first used my Holosun HS507C on mine but it was too low to get a good sight picture or cheek weld. I switched to a Vortex Crossfire and it's at a proper height now. Much easier to bring on target.

I don't think so.. and here's the thing - they'll used the increased costs for background checks and all of their other checks as justification for the increased fees.

Anyway. I highly doubt there's any way to get it under the 50oz weight limit - especially with that brace and buffer tube on it.

I have a .40 S&W Slide for my M&P so that works

Welcome to the pro-2A world! Public ranges are just that - public. Anyone can go in. They can also be very expensive in the long run. Since you're in Old Bridge, you may want to check out OBRPC http://www.obrpc.org/ - a private indoor and outdoor range. The price to join is a bit high at first, but if you see yourself staying here and being a member for a long time, it can be worth it.

Beretta's kit should work. https://www.berettausa.com/en-us/beretta-conversion-kit-92-series-10-round-mag-/#tab-reviews

Nope not anymore - It's all done via FARS.

Amazon has some good deals right now on Oil, including 0W-20 which both of my cars take. https://www.amazon.com/b?tag=dealwiki-20&ascsubtag=b35nx7mkmyc47ebrot4a3pYEjgypLT4g&camp=1789&creative=9325&ie=UTF8&node=20974749011

Are you gonna coat 'em or just use exposed lead?

What rail/handguard do you have on your AR? Is it free float? My last build, the free float rail had a nice barrel nut that didn't need any shimming or timing to line up the nut/gas tube.

Glad you had a good experience there. Putting a barrel on an upper receiver isn't hard but does require the proper tools. If you're attaching the barrel to the upper, and doing the gas block, you really do need the gas tube too - it all goes together.

6/20-8/18 not bad. Shorter time frame than me by 20 days. Mine was 6/1-8/18 (picked up mine yesterday too). 78 days...

So what does the backlog look like right now?

All transfers (outside of immediate family) now need to go through a FFL.

That's got a Magpul MOE Carbine stock on it. MOE Carbine stock on an AR is ~13.8 in length of pull. Specs on the Ruger site say it's got a LOP of 13.75", so that's right on. Depending on how the stock is pinned, you may or may not be able to remove it and reposition then re-pin. You may need to replace the entire buffer assembly and put on a different stock that's pinned in the proper position. I would bring it to a shop/gunsmith to see what options are available. I think you're in South Jersey - go see my buddy Scott at SWAT Firearms in Hammonton.
