Another kid suspended
Zero tolerance in schools should also apply to adults. Parents should teach their kids to scream and run for cover every time a teacher / principal points a finger at them and administrative action should be taken against the aggressor. If kindergartners can be suspended for this, then the teachers should be held to a higher standard.

I guess all of our children are conceal carrying in school.

Is the NICS check about the same across the state or do some FFL get them faster?
There are, for whatever reason(s), inconsistencies where NICS initiated on the same date get approvals on varying dates. According to the info posted by our members 3 NICS requests on 4-26-2013 got approved 15, 17 and 26 days later.

NICS delays- Has any action been taken?
If that turns out to be true, I'm going to celebrate by applying for more permits.

NICS delays- Has any action been taken?
By the time they decide to do something, the NICS delays would probably become negligible - normal.

Best Semi-Auto .22?
Another nod for the 15-22. One of my favorite guns to shoot and as stated above, it's a breeze to clean & maintain.

Any chance NJ will abolish the OGAM law since NICS check are taking close to a month?
or give it back to our legislators. They get a kick watching the law abiding citizens having to jump through all the unnecessary hoops they created.

Is it possible to transfer someone else's pistol permit?
Keep in mind that many FFLs will work something out with the purchaser until the permits are obtained.

Kimber Master Carry Pro...
A "real custom" is at least twice the price of a DW. Taste has to do with aesthetics and function. MIM parts are produced simply as a cost cutting measure by the manufacturer. Depending on the component, MIM parts can affect performance. If you consider it a matter of taste, you would prefer MIM over tool steel?

Documented LAw on AR BCG
Haven't seen anything on the books specifically concerning bolt carriers. This is the part of the law that we're concerned with: "Machine gun" means any firearm, mechanism or instrument not requiring that the trigger be pressed for each shot and having a reservoir, belt or other means of storing and carrying ammunition which can be loaded into the firearm, mechanism or instrument and fired therefrom. The M16 bolt carrier by itself is not enough to make your rifle full auto. If you mess with the fire control group (get dremel happy) which causes your magazine to empty out on a single pull, then you'll have the potential to get in some serious trouble.

NICS check and 30 day pistol limit
I believe that many FFLs are recording the purchase date on the P2P as the day of the actual transfer -- the day you legally take the handgun home. There's at least one FFL on the board that treats the NICS check as a separate incident to the "Purchase Date" since the NICS approval is good for 30 days. That being said, he's allowing the NICS check to be faxed before the next OGAM eligibility date. In the event that the approval miraculously comes in much sooner, the FFL will not allow the final transfer to occur until the 30 days for OGAM have passed. I think there are some FFLs that are recording the purchase date as the transfer date but won't allow the NICS request to be processed until the 30 days have passed. This, of course, compounds the waiting time for the customer and creates a bigger backlog for the FFL. Hopefully some FFLs will chime in and give us their opinion.

Check my post above -- Magpul has a disclaimer using these limiters.

Unpinning Ranger Plates
Now, to play devil's advocate: Are handgun magazines under the same scrutiny as those for the ARs? Take a 9mm magazine for a full size pistol that can hold more than 15 rounds and compare it to one that is limited to 10 rounds. Both magazines have the same body length and both can be field stripped. Has anyone compared these types of magazines and can the capacity be altered by swapping out the internals?
-
Unpinning Ranger Plates
Magpul and other companies sell limiters that reduce the magazine capacity of PMags by 5 or 10 rounds. Basically you replace the locking plate with the limiter and one can argue that since all the new components of this magazine, when assembled will result in a magazine capable of holding only "X" rounds so you should be safe. Problem is since the mag body can potentially have the capacity to hold more rounds, our lawmaker added that any alterations should be permanent.

This product is intended for TEMPORARY capacity reduction of PMAG AR/M4 GEN M3 magazines. This product does not constitute a permanent capacity reduction.
