Hey Guys, Had a question about the pinned stock on my JR carbine. The stock is currently pinned at the furthest out setting. I've got T-rex arms and have been dealing with this for a couple years but finally want to go about getting a shorter stock. I've looked into stocks for it and it has a mil spec buffer tube so alot of fixed stocks will fit. I've eyeing up the magpul MOE FCS. I didn't want to have to replace the buffer tube unless it's necessary. I've included some pictures of the current pinned stock. Do I just order the new stock and drill the pin? Or order a new stock and buffer tube(no drilling required)? Drill pin and repin this stock?(is that possible?) Am I allowed to do any of this or does it all have to be done at the LGS? Looking for ideas from people that have done with before. Thanks!

Love my Rock Island 1911 9mm, a few thousands rounds through it and no hickups. For some reason I am drawn to it more than my 1911 .45 or my plastic fantastic 9mm's

Surprisingly Dick's sporting goods in Cherry Hill had a golden boy on the shelf, I didn't note the caliber but might be worth a phone call. (856) 317-8394

Used to play all the time when I lived in North Jersey, just don't find the time anymore. Still have all sorts of gear that I should sell to finance some more real steel

I swapped the grips on my RIA briefly but didn't like how they felt. This might give you an idea of a white accent:

I've shot at least a thousand rounds of magtech 9mm and noticed it to be no dirtier than any other ammo. So maybe a fluke

Rayco has an XDm 3.8" in stock with 13 round mags

Haha, definitely not my first time doing the process I knew moving to this state how it is. I made my choice coming here so I can't complain about the process(coming from someone who moved here from PA) Only downside to getting 3 is now I will have 2 addition permits that I am sure will get used and the safe is running out of room lol

Last time I got 3, planning on doing the same this time

I'll make the drive out and just ship it to the FFl myself, I'll just have him ride along while I drive to the shipping location. Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply! Off to the police station for paper work ugh

So I am currently out of pistol permits but have my FID. My grandfather in PA wants to either sell or give me his 1911 since he no longer has a need for it. He does not have transportation so either myself of my father would be picking up the pistol from him. I have time so could get a pistol permit but unsure if it is necessary. If I get one I assume I just take the pistol from his house directly to my local gun store and have them fill out my permit for a transfer? Wasn't sure the best approach and like I said I have time so would like to do it as correct as possible. Thanks in advanced.

I was an XD fan and always had a chip on my should about glocks due to the grip angle. Well these gen4 glocks really turned me around. I picked up a gen 4 34 and my xd 4" 9mm just sits in the safe looking lonely. The higher bore axis on the XD never really bugged me still I shot the glock. Now whenever I go back to the XD is just feels to snappy. I am a bit far but if you are ever near by Bob's let me know and you can take the 34 for a test run.

Considering this... but noob question...could you PM me on how this would work? I have only bought firearms at a store and an unsure how a private sale would work. Have PP in hand.

I've got "Xd" in the lower corner of the back window fo my truck. Most people won't don't know what it is.

Thanks for the information. Still trying to play catch up on all the NJ laws. So in reality if their was a firearm we both wanted we would each have to purchase one to be able to go to the range independently?

On the way back from the range tonight my wife and I got into a conversation about ownership of my firearms. Here is the secnario: I have 2 handguns that were purchased in PA prior to moving to NJ. I now have an additonal one that was purchased in NJ. Once she gets her FID card is she able to bring any of these to the range without me or will she have to buy a new pistol for herself?

Welcome, I am from the brookfeild section of Cherry HIll as well. I just picked up my ID card this week, submitted my paper work on November 12 and my permits were signed off on January 20th. I have shot at Bob's a few times and also Philadelphia Archery and gun(lived in Philly before here). I loved the facilities in Philly and the guys were really nice, the pricing was a little steep but given it is in a city that is expected. Bob's is more reasonable but a little more dated. I am most likely making Bob's my home range just due to cost.

I have a bed cover on my truck so it basically turns it into a truck but for those without one I might suggest what I did before that. Get a rubber maid box and bungee cord it to the interior side of the bed, lock the box and bam instant "trunk".

So decided on the xdm bi-tone in 45, pretty excited. So thing brings about a new question since I will be moving into NJ without my FID card and pretty unable to buy ammunition at a store. Am I able to purchase ammunition at which ever range I go to practice? Or will I have to go back to PA? Will it be an issue driving across state lines to shoot?

Yeah gotta move, found a great deal on a house... I could left with it today! Just didn't know which model I wanted.

Just went and looked at it about an hour ago, going back tomorrow to pick one up. Couldn't decide between the m or non m version in 45

Thanks for the heads up, didn't realize Springfield didn't make a lower capacity magazine for them

Thanks guys! I'll make sure to make my purchase prior to moving. Hopefully I can head down to the local range today and see if they have what I am looking for in stock. I don't mind driving a bit if anyone knows the best spot within an hour of philly to pick up a Springfield? Gonna grab the XDm in either 40 or 9mm depending on what is in stock, figure I can't be picky at this point.

So I have found out that I will be moving rather suddenly to NJ. In about a week or so. I was planning on purchasing a pistol for target shooting in the next couple months(XDm) So looking for some advice, should I move up my purchase prior to moving to NJ? Seems like it would cut out alot of paper work. My main question is once I move and have said pistol will I have any trouble transporting it to and from the range without an NJFID? I would apply for one after moving but in the time that I would be in the state owning the pistol with no permit would I run into any issues? Or should I just wait till I move and start the pistol purchase permit process? I understand you aren't lawyers so I won't hold anyone to their advice Thanks!
