Ammo increase in price
That's what shovels were made for.... can't take what ya cant find. I have since donated all my 80%'s to out of state friends, never got a chance to mill one out, my friend in PA has a milling machine. Either way, I never found 80% lowers that cheap. Do you recall who sold 6 for 150? I recall deals of like $600 for 6 including the jig. I bought a 3 pack from the cheapest place I could find and it was like $240, this was right around 2016 too. I bought 3 aero precision lowers for the same price. Which is astronomically cheaper considering them time still needed to finish the.

Ammo increase in price
I appreciate the offer, I have plenty of primers for right now, but i keep my eye out to see what the trends are. I would say that everything is going to start to get worse as reloading components lag ammo shortages. When stock came back after 2012 I invested in a few 5k boxes for each caliber. I've barely touch them since ammo has been cheap. Primers are too cheap not to stock up on when available.

Ammo increase in price
Why would anyone stock up on 80% lowers? I literally bought a bunch of finished lowers cheaper than any 80%'s I could find. 80% are nothing more than a gimmick or a way for people to own guns who cant legally buy them. You end up with a lower that cost you more, and is probably out of spec. The only thing I cant find right now for reloading is primers, I can source literally anything at normal price.

Any ongoing projects outside of gun related stuff?

0-60 in 5.5s? A Google search just came up at 6.5s which is pretty standard for a low teir sports cars, or anything around under 4000lbs with a standard NA v6. My curiousity is peaked, where did you get 5.5s from? I got nothing against electrics. I've been watching formula E since it started

Where else would your spare mags be? It's just a matter how how you train for a threat. I can put my plate carrier on faster than shoes...

Live and learn, im right there with ya. My jeep has never seen a mechanic and its had a lot of work, my wife hates it cause im always fixing it lol. I need a damn tire machine! I put new tubes in the bike with new rubber, and tires spoons are a SONOFABITCH. I even picked up a wheel balancer/truer for bike wheels. I could fit 4 honda accord wheels in the back seat of a honda accord coupe! And 4 35" x12" wheels in the back of a honda cr-v

Lazy... Pure and simple. I had new snow tires put on my winter wheels at a shop around the corner from me. First off, they snapped the wheels locks.. then when i brought them the original lugs to put back on they pounded them on with an electric impact gun. I said to myself, youre not going to torque spec them? Sure enough when i got home about every lug was loose at maybe 50ft.lbs. I know my tools... lol I know which ones are capable of the 110ft/lbs they should be specd at, and $100 dewalt was not gonna cut it. I hope no ones wheels fall off from that place.

Finishing up a restoration on this beauty. My dad passed this down to me, he bought it back in 71 new. Gonna be a great keepsake.

Possession of Other with standard AR
Law is sketchy, but technically they can't tamper with evidence, and if its configured as a complete weapon then there are no "parts". The ATF has similar rules for NFA weapons, and they do not treat complete weapons as a "parts bin".

home gardening?
My dog took care of that problem for me! He took out the entire family in a 4 week period. My biggest issue has now been the damn June bugs, Japanese beetles.

Dicks in PA has 9mm
Someone's gonna give ya shit for this comment, but I agree. The books are comprehensive and organized, but at the end of the day the same information is found all over the place.

Non-NFA Firearms Law and Documents
? isnt this old news?

Non-NFA Firearms Law and Documents
That's a logical conclusion, but I still don't see the statutes that reinforce it You only need a p2p for transferring and purchasing handguns. If you buy a reciever, nothing in NJ law says I can't use it to make a pistol. Its a moot point since you cant make one legally anyway without it falling in the "assault" category. But then again, If i bought a glock frame, it would be transferred as "other" receiver on form 4473, if NJSP require a P2P for it, again i understand the logic, but the classification of the item doesn't meet the standard. I have not done this, but if the FFLs are directed to put reciever info on a p2p it not really supported by statute.

I believe this is correct.

You can make a stripped lower into anything you want, so as long as it is transferred as an Other/receiver youre GTG(and it should have been by Law and ATF regs). There is some REAL grey area turning a receiver into a pistol in NJ, but lets avoid that scenario to simplify the response. If you built a non-NFA other, then your 4473 would have "other" checked off in B16, and receiver written in D27. Which is perfectly fine.
