Oh, I certainly agree with you that it is a bad idea. I was commenting on the OP's question regarding legality. 100% legal; and God help us if the State ever becomes so invasive that it is not. As far as the sensibility of the act; well, stupid is as stupid does. I leave such things to Professor Darwin and Mr. Murphy.

The fact that anyone thought to ask this question is a sad commentary on NJ Statism. How readily we sheeple accept the premise that if we are doing anything with firearms we are likely breaking a law somehow someway. How does that quote go about the government is supposed to fear its people, not people fearing their government?

Mosin Nagant Conceal Carry Why COSTCO Doesn't Sell Ammo.

A picture says a 1,000 words.

I appreciate the offer, JonF. But, the wife and I just did the bills this evening and it looks like I am going to have to behave myself for a couple months. A new kitchen table is more important than making loud noises putting small holes in paper. I have to pass on this one. Sorry.

Thanks for the advice. RE: CMP Greek ammo I was reluctant to try the old Greek ammo because the put this picture right above the product description. You can even see the guy's got crud on his fingers from handling it. I once ordered 880 rounds Portugese NATO 7.62 that said 10-to-15% may exhibit "discoloration due to minor corrosion." It was so badly corroded that I had to polish it with Kroil and fine steel wool to get it to function properly in my M1A. It took my hours. Is that just a CYA photo? How is the condition and how much cleaning is needed?

UGH! I was making fun of how NJ could consider a rifle that shoots .22 shorts as an "Assault Firearm."

What is that? How the heck does it cycle with a short? ETA: If I am not mistaken, a mag that holds 15 LR will hold 24 shorts. How is THAT ^^^ not a deadly assault firearm?

For the Love of God, DO NOT lie on a FPID application. If you get caught, it is a Criminal conviction and you give up your 2A rights not only here in NJ, but also in America.

That is essentially the definition of a Statist government. When there is any conflict between the controls empowered to the State and the rights of the People, the State's interests win. Kind of backward from what our founding fathers had in mind. ETA: And for the most part, based upon NJ natives who were born and raised in this State, the people are generally OK with that. The only people who seem to notice are people who relocated here from America.

There is a very simple modification that you can make to your inner tube that will make you good to go. Then, you can replace your inner tube when you escape to America. No need to worry about .22 shorts or longs unless your semiauto will operate with them (somehing I have never seen).

3-9 is fairly much a standard for hunting rifles. It is intended for hunting at ranges between ~100-to-300 yards. We live in the Sheeples Republik. So, unless you are planning to escape later in life or prepping for a collapse in government, size your scope to your range (only place in NJ that you can legally use it). Consider the maximum distance you can shoot at your range and think: < 50 yards: why are you buying a scope? 50 yards: anything greater than 1.5x or 2x mag will have too confined a field of view (FOV) 100 yards: 4x magnification is all you need 200 yards: between 5x and 8x mag 300 yards: between 9x and 12x magnification on the high end. These are just rough guidelines. Everyone has different eyes. Good luck and us me know what you decide upon. Watch for sales on NatchezSS.com, they often run great deals in the fall and around Christmas time.

DAMN! These things keep breaking every time I clean them. Honey, it will probably be cheaper in the long run if I just upgrade to Daniel Defense so this doesn't happen any more. Just kidding. Trust is the cornerstone of marriage. OP's wife obviosly trusts him and OP does not take advantage of that trust. Good marriage! Congratulations.

Degrees, minutes, seconds are units of static measurement for angles. "Moment" should be used when describing perterbing forces on a moving body. e.g., A 1 inch group at 100 yards represents 1-minute of angle precision. A quality heavy-barrel rifle is capable of sub-moment of angle precision. Or just say MOA. ;-)

I found Prvi Partizan PPU 30.06 FMJ 150grn 500rd can for $329.95, which is quite a bit cheaper than the CMP charges for old NATO surplus. But I need to know if it's good to go in a Springfield 1903A3. It says "Designed and tested for peak performance in M1 Garand rifles". Good for Garand, should be good for 1903, right? Anyone have any experience with this ammo in a 1903? Thanks

You gotta watch for the right weekend. If they are running an ammo sale, the free shipping for that weekend will exclude ammo. If they are not running an ammo sale, there are usually no exclusion. IMHO, their ammo sales are not so great. Usually better to wait for free shipping.

Are you guys telling me that I can transport unloaded mags in the same case as my rifle?!?! Man!! And, after all these years of transporting my mags in my hubcaps.

Pussy rents a .22LR and then acts dismissive of someone shooting a Mosin. The Liberal puke should try shooting the Mosin.... Waaa! Mommy!

Seems simple enough. Thanks for the tips.

Considering the way my kids blow through ammo, I was considering getting some cheap surplus ammo for the AK. I was told that all you need to do is mop the barrel with warm soapy water to remove the residue from the corrosive primers. It that it? What about everything else that gets combustion byproducts in/on it: gas tube, piston, BCG, inside the receiver, etc.? It seems like just about everything gets dirty on an AK. Do I have to give it a complete bath or is it just the barrel? Thanks

IMHO, good to go.

This is the Daily Humor thread: Daddy is at the titty bar. ETA: And WHY is my text so small?

The law gives the issuing agency 30 days (45 for out of state) to determine if a person is prohibited from purchasing a firearm. If they cannot prove someone a prohibited person in 30 days, the shall issue. The loophole is that the law does not state when the timer starts. Does it start when you submit your paperwork, when your references return their forms, when the NJSP process the SBI, when? Many municipalities blame your references, the NJSP, etc. for the delays, even though they took their time in submitting the paperwork to Trenton or in sending out the letters to your references. Not defending it, just reiterating the BS that I have heard tale of about many municipalities. +1000 for Lumberton: No BS. Always ~30 days after your fingerprints are processed for a FPID, ~30 days for a P2PP. Nonetheless, I feel others' pains, even though I don't have similar experiences.
