10 round magazine limit all but certain??
Even if NJ ends up going to 10 or lower, there is always the possibility that existing mags over the limit they set might be grandfathered in and even if not I doubt you are going to find privately owned ranges acting as an arm of the state and enforcing the limit. i have never been to a range in NJ where the range checked mags for limits. However, in N.J. I do respect the limit. Also, any mag limit is not going to be enforceable in your own home for obvious reasons. The greatest vulnerability, Fourth Amendment issues, aside, assuming you do not use the firearm to commit a separate crime, will be during transport to and from, the place you are shooting at. I am not advocating disregarding whatever limit under 15 may or may not become the law in N.J. Under no circumstances should anyone "roll over" and permit this to become law without a fight. Also, the Supremes have never directly ruled on a mag limit law, although the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals decision upholding a mag limit in Md is pending certification in the Supreme Court.

Golden Retriever
I had to put my 12 year old Golden down recently due to cancer. If any of you have had a good or bad experience with any breeder, I would be interested in your comments, as I want to get another one.

When you get pulled over ?
This thread contains a lot of both good and bad advice. These issues should be viewed from a minimum of two perspectives: Common sense (which unfortunately is uncommon) and the likely legal ramifications. The end result is usually variable based upon the actors involved, the time, place, circumstances, training, and perception of the parties. Unrelated events, of which you may be entirely unaware may also influence the outcome which is also variable. Therefore universal rules may or may not result in a favorable outcome for you. You may be correct, or incorrect, in your assumption as to why you are being stopped unless it so obvious as to leave no doubt. I think the last two posts, are right on the money, although the advice is not completely consistent. If you have a clear head and realize that more is at stake for you than a motor vehicle summons because you are likely in violation of an actual criminal law, then I would suggest you exercise your rights against self-incrimination but do not do so in a hostile manner.

Answering the Door with a Machete
Court Overturns Conviction for Answering Door With Machete Michael Booth, New Jersey Law Journal June 8, 2017 | 1 Comments SHARE PRINT REPRINTS NJ Supreme Court Justice Faustino J. Fernandez-Vina. Photo: Carmen Natale/ALM New Jersey residents have the right to walk around their homes and answer the door with a weapon—including those other than firearms—so long as they are not using them in a threatening manner unless they believe they are in danger, the state Supreme Court ruled. In a unanimous ruling Thursday, the court overturned the conviction and 540-day prison sentence of a Monmouth County man, Crisoforo Montalvo, who answered the door of his apartment while holding a machete. Holding a weapon, like a machete, in one's home is protected by the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, as is carrying a firearm, wrote Justice Faustino Fernandez-Vina in the ruling. "We need only to observe that the Second Amendment protects the right of individuals to possess weapons, including machetes, in the home for self-defense purposes," Fernandez-Vina said. "Persons may lawfully possess weapons in their homes, even if possession of those same weapons may not be manifestly appropriate outside the home. "Using a twelve-inch steak knife in the kitchen to prepare dinner is lawful and possessing it as a means of defense in case of a home invasion is lawful as well; carrying the same knife on the street on the way to pick up groceries may not be manifestly appropriate," he said.

M1 Carbine Question
Question is the action on a Ruger Mini 14 any different than an M1 Carbine, putting aside for the minute that if the receiver says M1 it is a no go and the caliber is different

Load AR through ejection port
If NJ in the future tightens the evil feature statute this may be away to solve the problem. This device was designed for Calif where they would run an AR-15 with a bullet button, to create a fixed mag. Now I think they have eliminated the bullet button work around and need to have a fixed AR-15 mag which means they had to remove the upper to load the mag in the lower. With this device that step is unnecessary. I am sure the device which is designed for 10 could probably be manufactured for 15 if the demand was present.

M1 Carbine Question
Although you may not realize it, your response is, in part, diplomatically inappropriate as is your characterization that I am demanding to have my way. which is an incorrect assumption on your part. I do not question your characterization of PK90 as an esteemed FFL, although I would put it slightly differently: " experienced" but that is not really the issue. Initially, I asked for an opinion and received one which I accept. I then asked a hypothetical question to further explore the issue which I was thinking about as lawyers sometimes do. Perhaps you should read what you write before you click the send button which is an issue with email and text transmission. I would not respond to another forum members post, in part in a nasty manner even if I disagreed with a position they took on an issue. Enough said.

M1 Carbine Question
Not sure I agree. If made as described it is not an M1

Load AR through ejection port
- M1 Carbine Question
Hypo: Assume it does not say M! etc on it and assume that when shipped to the FFL or as modified by the FFL the magazine is fixed and cannot be removed and can be fed with ammo without removing it from the rifle.- Aimpoint Pro Price Point
Prior prosecutor, don't know if that qualifies.- Serious Threats
As to the first question, the answer is no As to the second yes, assuming the Christy standard applies, if it you were the subject of a specific verbal threat reasonably contemporaneous, so that it could be said that it is probable that person making the threat carried it out or there was direct evidence that the person making the threat was the shooter. That would be a case worth taking if denied.- Aimpoint Pro Price Point
I have not owned one, but after sending in 3 Eotechs under the proposed class settlement am considering buying a new Aimpoint Pro . What price is considered a good deal for one?- M1 Carbine Question
Classic Arms has them on sale. I have no clue if they are marked M1 Carbine, if they do not say M1 Carbine on them, what do you think?- Man, NJ is even ragging on SIg
I have a 226 in FDE, scorpion 9mm no issues, no matter what brand ammo. It looks great (especially the grips) and shoots great. It gets cleaned after every two range sessions. Is the problem model related?- Freedom Ordnance 9mm carbine
Looks real nice and is on my list- Aimpoint H2 v. Aimpoint Patrol
Just curious, with your condition, with the Pro was there any difference in the shape of the dot shooting inside vs outside?- Aimpoint H2 v. Aimpoint Patrol
Anyone using an Aimpoint H2 or T2 and if so how would you compare the glass and dot clarity etc to the Patrol Model - M1 Carbine Question
