you're right. I might have read that the plastic could melt on the gas block.

D How do you know Jules has a flattop? Maybe I missed that but it's a good point by Vlad. Do you have an A2 post permanently attached or a flip up front sight that is bolted on the rail? Makes sense to me that the front sight should be mounted to the gas block, not the rail.

This issue is already dead, mostly. Last November, the "Fiscal Year 2012 Agriculture, Commerce/Justice/Science and Transportation/Housing/Urban Development Appropriations bills" omnnibus was signed into law. One provision of that law blocks funding for a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE) plan to ban the importation of certain shotguns, based on their not being sufficiently suited to "sporting purposes." From AmmoLand.com:

All my guns are plastic. Wanted to buy a used 5906 but I hated the way it felt. Got two M&Ps. The 9mm M&P is a good size for my hand. Funny thing about the CZ: Everyone on line loves them but when you try to buy one, the gun stores say they don't sell so they don't stock them. CZ makes a 15 round mag. Get the gun without a mag and buy the 15 mags aftermarket.

There is plenty of paranoia here for everyone. Some people are scared to go get the mail out of their mailbox unarmed.

ANOKA, Minn., March 12, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- ATK ATK -2.55% announced that it is being awarded an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) agreement from the Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (DHS, ICE) for .40 caliber ammunition.

No. there is a max fee that notaries can charge. Something like $2.50. My wife is a notary but she never charges and no most notaries don't charge that I know. Some notaries take it real serious with a log book of all their notaries. My wife does a thousand a year and cant be bothered with that.

Fill out the form, get your FID, get your gun, donate to NJ2AS and let them fight the legal battle. Now, you have to fight the battle without your FID. You'll most probably win your appeal but was your goal to fight the extra form in court or to get your FID in the shortest time possible?

Handguns have to go through an in-state FFL. You can look in PA but after shipping to an NJ FFL and the FFL transfer fee it's probably cheaper to buy in NJ. Look online for 9mm ammo. www.slickguns.com has ammo deals.

A rail is not a bayonet mount.

The guy appealed and won. Don't know if he got his guns back yet.

Feeding into the hysteria is counterproductive. It just drives up prices. I assume your stockpile of food and water surpasses your ammo cache.

i. A semi-automatic rifle that has the ability to accept a detachable magazine and has at least two of the following: (1) A folding or telescoping stock; (2) A pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon; (3) A bayonet mount; (4) A flash suppressor or threaded barrel designed to accommodate a flash suppressor; and (5) A grenade launcher;

I've been denied twice and the judge granted my appeal without much ado. My local PD told me to fill out the FID application (3rd time) to say I'd been denied but granted on appeal. So, I think I still to say that I've been denied. Either way, talking to the chief or mayor or whatever is a waste of time. You talk to the judge. Here is what you do: Write a letter to court saying you with to appeal your denial. Attach your application and denial letter. Wait. You'll get a court date. You'll write a letter stating why your should appeal should be granted. Wait. You'll get a formal written statement from the prosecutor as to why your appeal should be denied. You show up in court. NJ is a shall issue state. Burden of proof is on the prosecutor. As to your argument it's up to you if you want to argue that extra form violates NJ law or you thought the extra form was optional and not required for your FID application. BTW, I agree with Jules. Stop calling anyone with a dissenting opinion a troll. Groupthink is not good.

Totally agree with you. People act like they're going to be in some firefight if the economy collapses. The economy collapsed in 1929 and life went on. I've started to play golf again. I'm more concerned about being able to hit the fairway consistently than I am about zombies.

Leave the scene??? Surely, you'll wind up in prison.

Doesn't make sense to buy Windows to put it on an old laptop. Step one is to back up all your pictures and videos.

Your link showed that Balltisol was equal to EEZOX after 3 months in preventing rust.

Spray some EEZOX, Balltisol and a control steel wool and put them in your safe and see if there's any difference in a year or 10 years or 20 years. I don't have any safe queens so I know they'll get shot and a new layer of Balltisol or CLP or whatever lube is popular at the time.

This is the law.

I never timed it but it seems like 20 minutes shooting, 10 minutes cease fire. So, if you pay for an hour, you get 40 minutes of shooting.

If you're new to the world of firearms then buy new unless you know someone that can help you inspect a used gun.

AC is a bad place a stabbing like this near this place is not overly worrisome to me. But, where those two Canadian ladies were murdered is right in the middle of the tourist area.

Wait times haven't been too bad since they finished the new rifle stations. They are strict on the time. If you pay for an hour, they kick you off after an hour even if no one is waiting for your station.

You sound alarmist.
