NYPD, Feds Testing Gun-Scanning Technology
This is wrong on so many levels. This tech is similar to the airport milimeter wave scanners. It will be able to "see" other items on your person as well. What if people are sensitive about prosthetics, medical devices, etc. Not to mention the privacy concerns. Unless they get my consent to "scan"-search me no-go. Lawsuits should be abound on this one.

Marlin 1895SBL .45-70
She arrived last week. What a sweet looking gun. Hoping to shoot her this weekend. Loaded up 20 rounds of 45gr H4198 behind 300gr cast RNFP's. Its in the middle between trapdoor and modern 1895 lever action loads. Should be a good starting load as load data indicates 50-55gr of powder possible. I had a problem with the Hornaday resizing die. Seems to have some longitudinal scorning that is scratching my brass. Just sent it off to Hornaday for some warranty care.

This scenario is covered by the Gun Control Act of 1968. Federal law permits dealers to receive and return guns to their original owner, this supercede's state and local laws. Also federal law dictates how guns are transfered from federally licensed dealers for purposes of repair, superceding state law. http://www.atf.gov/f...html#atf-f-4473

Stupid question, but I couldn't answer it...
I use brake cleaner on metal gun parts whenever I want to "dry-clean" metal parts of a gun. Basically removes all oils/greases/lubes. This makes a good foundation for laying down a fresh layer of your favorite gun lube/protectant.

Laugh all you want, but that's what the law states. I've been asked to show my FID to look at rifles before, and I've been asked to see my PP before handling pistols. In practice, it is random , and in many cases, if you know the dealer they stop asking for either. Chances are 99% of the time even if a LEO was in the shop at the same time that it would not trigger an arrest or investigation. The same would most likely apply if a LEO was in your house and saw you hand your wife your gun. Selective enforcement at play. Just because a cop can watch everyone drive by at 70 in a 65 zone all day doesn't make it legal.

I've said this before, that it would be highly unlikely that anyone would be prosecuted for using a spouse's gun to defend yourself from a life threatening situation. On the other hand, non-life threatening situations are also being discussed, as in a wife picking up a husband's gun to just look at it.

Oh and technically in a gun shop/dealer... if that gunshop/dealer does not have a firing range... the person "looking" at guns and handling them must have an FID for long guns and a PP for handguns before they can be temporarily xfered for fondling.

Whats the difference of your spouse handing you her gun, or a friend handing you his gun in your home. The laws don't stipulate if someone lives there or not, or if you are married. The fact is that you are aquiring or receiving somone elses gun, 2C:58-3 and its subsections on temporary transfers govern how a gun can be handed to or picked up by someone else who is not the legal owner.

So if i bring a rifle to your house (i have a FID)... I can then hand it to you, and leave... then you can carry it around your house all you want legally? Or do I need to be there since I'm the real owner? If so why would I need to be there since you are legal in your own house with any gun that legally arrived at your house?

I was just demonstrating that Paul's example around handing a document to somone, that is it really a transfer. I'm showing that in the eye's of NJ law regarding firearms... handing someone a gun to look at constitutes A type of transfer. As in temporary or ownership(purchase/gift, etc) transfers.

Vlad, I think you are mixing emotions with what the law says. I agree, if my life depended on it, the last thing i'm going to think about before disarming a bad guy and using his gun against him is whether or not i'm meeting NJ's gun laws. But the bottom line is your logic falls apart with my previous tests. With your interpretation, any gun that you come into possession in your own home, is now legal for you to keep no matter what, because it is "any" gun. The fact is there are other statutes that override the exemptions such as those related to the disposition of guns, as 2C:58-3 regarding how a person can come into possession of a gun. For instance, as I think the other poster was saying, you cant use the "possess and carry any gun" by saying you are legal to own machine guns or other guns that are prohibited , as in the AW banned list or evil feature list fitting guns.

The statutes specify temporary and ownership types of transfers and have rules for both. That means to hand someone a gun to show it to them, that has to be covered under temporary transfers. If a firearm is handed to you or you take it (aka pick it up), you are either receiving or aquiring it. 2C:58-3 must be satisfied when receiving or aquiring it, says so right in the statutes. The temporary transfer statutes state "The person to whom a handgun, rifle or shotgun is temporarily transferred by the legal owner of the firearm or a licensed dealer may receive, possess, carry and use that handgun, rifle or shotgun..." It is pretty clear that by allowing another person to receive, possess, or carry your gun temporarily, that it is a temporary transfer in the eyes of the law.

Same could go for if i brought a rifle to your house legally (i have a FID), then gave you the rifle and left. With the same logic because the rifle is ANY gun, you can keep it in your house, and travel with it under exemptions if you didnt have an FID. The exempted locations where you can "possess and carry any gun" are not magical places where all other statutes don't count namely 2C:58-3 and its subsections. You first have to receive or aquire the said "any" gun legally before you can "possess and carry" it in exempted locations.

Using your logic , if I bring a HG illegally over to your house, then hand it to you in your house. You can now legally keep that HG in your home forever because after all it is ANY gun. Keeping on that logic, you can now travel with that HG to the range and back under exemptions. You have just defacto aquired a HG without a CoE or PP. I maintain that posessing/carrying and receiving/aquiring are covered by two different statutes.

Taking the portal into the world of AR's.
Bud's doesn't charge tax and in most cases ships free, and FFL + NICS fees still need to be paid when you buy a lower from anyone. Perhaps you can save FFL xfer fees if you buy the lower from a local dealer. Not saying Bud's is the best place to buy an AR from, just pointing out the discrepencies.

How to Pin Magpul CTR Stock without Drilling
IMO, regarding pinning a telescoping stock, it should be as long as it doesn't move by using your bare hands (adjustment handles, adjustable pins, etc), it is not telescoping. The law doesn't say if it needs to be permanent, or temporary, or how they need to be designed to acheive compliance. In my mind, i'd hand the stock to the prosecutor and ask them to please "telecope" the stock to prove that it is telescoping. If their response is "well, we need to drill this out, and happer out remove this roll pin with a punch" you already won. Thats like getting charged with a fully automatic weapon because with a metal file and some time you can shave away parts of the SA FCG that could get it to fire more than 1 round per trigger pull.
