We all need to look at this with a realistic approach.. Most cops don't know these things are legal... I HIGHLY doubt a piece of paper you hand them will just clear all of that up on the spot... They will take your gun... and figure out if its legal before charging you... which wont happen because... Just don't be the dumbass who gets caught with parts and an AR-15.

Every single one of my AR-15 is home assembled.... Ive been a walking test case for over a decade. I've relied on the same "substantially identical" definition and its worked out just fine for me. I wouldn't own any guns if i was worried about an uniformed LEO putting me in jail for a legal firearm.

Really? Pretty sure the fact these things even exist in this state is enough.... hardly doubt the fact one can be assembled from a transferrable receiver would push them over that edge. The fact is, the state wants these registered through their NICS system... thats it. The fact is, they are legal to build... as outlined in their own letters, no such law states they cannot. The fact is, they outline the legal definition of substantially identical to include anything the resembles by law the firearms given the green light. THE FACT IS, once you build a substantially identical "firearm" it makes zero difference if it was built from a receiver or purchased... A complete home built firearm... is NO DIFFERENT than a MM Firearm.

Why were the cops involved?... sounds like if the boat was being held in placement of an unpaid bill that would be a civil matter.

I would think something else is off, honestly. Anything from 25 to 27grains should fully cycle the action.

What velocity are the round showing? How do the spent primers look?

I completely missed any political aspects to this movie/trailer.. was there something that i missed? Besides, aren't like all of the purge movies about rich white people killing poor minorities?

Gun broker also has a bunch of Colt uppers.

Lets shut down the grid because of the dangerous fires it can cause during high temps and strong winds? OH YEAH!!! becuase everyone and their mother running a gas generator is going to help that situation out so much better.

If youre making a parts list, why does the upper have to be completed? BCM has them in stock..

@Shane45 Is that welded? or just a pin?

Why would the NJ state constitution need to affirm R2KBA? It's in the Bill of Rights, for all Americans. While some states affirm that right in their constitutions, it is not necessary. States DO elaborate on castle doctrines(expanding those rights), more or less when you are allowed use of deadly force. Even if it were in the NJ states constitution, it would be quickly ignored.... FFS its ignored as #2 right in the bill of rights. States rights do not triumph individuals rights as outlined in the 10A, that is not a valid argument unless you are arguing the subject isn't a right at all. A states rights issue on this subject is when and how you can use a firearm, not the possession or carry of it... NJ may say you need to try and retreat, while Texas and FL have stand your ground laws.. THIS IS STATES RIGHTS..

Im not suggesting to go that route, but if you did it would be fine. But otherwise, any complete lower i believe is still transferred as a receiver regardless of configuration. Im not even sure where this idea came from that you need a pistol permit for receivers if you plan to make one into a pistol. If i buy a 1911 receiver, per the ATF it is transferred as a receiver.. not a handgun. NJ only requires permits for purchasing pistols. From a legal stand point, you could buy 15 completed glock receivers on the same day... and piece them all together with complete oem glock slides shipped to your door.

Legally speaking, no one that matters... Not a single Judge in the Supreme court of NJ, no opinions from the 3rd appellate court, and certainly nothing from SCOTUS.

How does it work? Politicians in NJ don't believe it's your right... No one has told them otherwise....

You can convert a pistol into a non- NFA firearm. I also believe that complete lowers, even with a stock, are transferred as receivers. At the ends of the day, once they are complete, all the originating paperwork is the same.

I don't know what else to say at this point other then once it's assembled, it follows the substantial identical part of the law. Prior to that, tread lightly.

"How many more leave before Wayne?" Not sure why they haven't booted him out..... that means a majority in positions want him there.

In all seriousness, isn't that the one thing they're good at? besides, they already ran out of money and people will be lucky to get 5 dollars..

That's why I called it a buy out. If you take their credit monitoring service... It's almost like the exact opposite. They are now liable for monitoring your credit for 10 years

The 125 is a standard buy out.... if you want to file a claim you can provide the necessary documents and i believe they will cover up to $20,000 in loses... The free 10 years of credit monitoring is well worth it if you didn't lose anything.

Highly unlikely that you missed one, you have to push the neck WAY back to get the case physically stuck like that. They would all be miserably out of spec if that were the situation. Do you still have the case? If it was a squib.... the bullet may have just stuck itself in the throat of the chamber, there is no standard for how far the bullet will travel down the barrel with no powder...

NO! It is highly illegal to remove a stock from a receiver which has already been designated a rifle since there is a stock on it already...

But..... did you use a case gauge? Was the primer struck? Im going to take a guess here and say you over sized the round... it's literally the only way a cartridge can push past the neck in the chamber... and if it was measured with out a case gauge then OAL would jam the bullet into the lands I cant imagine how that would effect the chambering of the round...

I'm not sure exactly what the reasoning is, but while that ATF letter had in bold "PISTOL".... it routinely says that "firearms" are measured by eliminated anything that does not attribute to an essential element in the statutory definition. The letter paints a pretty broad stroke and only references pistols when comparing essential elements of rifles and shotguns... To make it worse, the letter explicitly states that the purpose of such non-essential elements is to avoid an AOW classification by artificially lengthening the firearm for that sole purpose. Keep in mind this letter was a response to measuring non-nfa firearms OAL with stabilizing braces.... Perhaps they will be receiving a response from the ATF in regards to clarification. I think many items are well on their way in meeting the fate of bumpstocks..
