Woodland Park Range
Would you point me to a range that actually sells 5.45x39? Haven't seen one yet in Northern NJ. In Bullet Hole guys said they don't know this caliber at all.

Woodland Park Range
I honestly doubt that ( tests show it doesn't penetrate 3/8 steel at 200 yards youtube.com/watch?v=MmVZE86lb7g ) but I understand your caution. Would commercial Silver Bear be OK? It doesn't have steel core but I think it's bi-metal.

Long gun in trunk Question
I'm not a lawyer, but I'm not sure about that. 2C:39-5 c. is not en exception. I don't see a reason why N.J.S.A. 2C:39-5 c. should overrule N.J.S.A. 2C:39-6 g. especially since 2C:39-5 c is about unlawful possession and has nothing to do with exemptions or transportation. Also there is new bill SENATE, No. 2721 Sponsored by Senator JEFF VAN DREW 4/25/2013 Introduced in the Senate, Referred to Senate Law and Public Safety Committee 5/9/2013 Reported from Senate Committee with Amendments, 2nd Reading "Clarifies definition of reasonably necessary deviation when legally transporting firearm or weapon in motor vehicle." So, if we are lucky and No. 2721 passes, NJ law will directly allow as to do certain simple and completely logical things, but taking firearm to work etc will still be in grey area, IMHO. P.S. Just realized the research on this matter took almost 2 hours

Woodland Park Range
Gunforhire, we don't have a lot of choices for 5.45x39, would surplus 7N6 be allowed in Woodland Park range? Some other ranges have similar ammo rules, but allow 7N6 simply because there is no "politcorrect" ammo in this caliber. If not, what ammo in this caliber is allowed and is it available for sale at the range? Thanks

NJ LEO kills man in road rage incident in MD
I think, unless there was a collision (no such information provided) and Walker couldn't drive away, it would be very difficult to try and use self defense. I don't see how "racial slurs and threats of violence" coming from another car is a reason to pull over on the highway and shoot someone.

front sight help
You could spray it with some WD-40, let it soak for 30 minutes and than give it a good push with your tool.

Waffen Werks AK74 opinions?
I had conversation with FFL about this matter. He said (as per AG guidelines) only "evil" features matter in the determination.

Arsenal worth the $$?
Yes, I have one of those, not bad for US made, specially at that price. Finish (for those who care) is MUCH better than original AK, kind of too god. But they make only 74s, at least lately.
-
Arsenal worth the $$?
Unless you have a dictator friend and want to give him a nice gift - there is good deal right now, gold plated WASR for only $4300: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=333281005

Arsenal worth the $$?
Yep, prices slowly dropping down, few more months and could be back to pre-panic.
-
Arsenal worth the $$?
Or, if you want AK platform with cheap ammo, just wait a bit and get something for 6-8 hundred. Preferably Saiga or WASR.

Arsenal worth the $$?
I think it was a while ago, those with keyholing issue have specific serial #s

Arsenal worth the $$?
Any AK assembled on a commie factory is the best one (receiver, trunnions + barrel, everything else doesn't really matter). Arsenals have good reputation, but a big part of price goes for the name. Basically you are paying for expensive Saiga conversion. You get some extras vs simple converted Saiga, but you have no use for them in NJ: bayo lug has to be shaved, muzzle brake has to be welded. In general muzzle brake was created to stabilize AK during auto fire, on semi it gives you only louder noise, bigger flash and (since it's welded and can't be cleaned) place to collect rust. Also a lot of people change Arsenal's trigger to G2. 5.45x39 (AK-74) is more modern, has better accuracy and more effective over 200 meters + cheap surplus ammo (it's corrosive, but real AKs have chrome lined barrels, so you don't really care about it). Some good AK-74 deals this weekend: Tantal $599 , Waffen Werks 74 for $799 with 4 mags (need to check if they will replace 30 rounders with 10 rounders) All above is IMO.

On my way to NJ
Close to the mall gets flooded and it's not a good part of Wayne (big town, hast it's own kinda "trailer part"). Extra 10 minutes will not make commute so bad, but will give you better quality of life. Montville is not that expensive as long as you stay away from new construction 3000 sq ft houses. There are plenty of normal homes Few years back I found few houses under 450, so you should be just fine with today's priced in low 500.

On my way to NJ
That place was Paterson - capital of Passaic county - not a good place to be. As long as you stay away from Paterson you are OK. Also it's better to be in the middle or north part of Wayne (few years ago I was considering buying a house in Wayne, but decided it doesn't make sense to pay extra 3-5K in property taxes while getting nothing in return). Parsippany is good for rent, but I wouldn't buy a house there. If you are going to rent and need elementary school - I would suggest Lake Hiawatha (part of Parsippany Twp). If you are planning to buy a house around Parsippany, I would suggest Cedar Knolls(Hanover Twp) or Montville. Few years ago I've done extensive research and ended up buying in Cedar Knolls.

On my way to NJ
As far as I know schools are believed to be better in Wayne, but Parsippany is ok (it's "better" vs "good"). If you are planning to buy a house, get ready for high property tax in Wayne. Property tax is more reasonable in Parsippany. (Best proportion of price/quality you can get in Hanover Twp, IMO)

If you don't have a safe
Usually when you see on the web "can't be shipped to" - there is always NJ. Not this time. Huh, maybe NJ is not the worst state after all... at least Sandusky lockers are still legal here

If you don't have a safe
- any good rifle safe deals?
Meltzers Sporting Goods had few simple cheap "Stack-on" safes, I think 8 gun and 14 gun. Those more like "feel-good" gun cabinets, but should do fine against small kids.- If you don't have a safe
There is an old good trick for safes that can be carried away: put some metal weight plates inside, let's say extra 100 pounds or more so it too heavy for someone to carry away. Just don't affix them inside, most likely weights will move and shift balance on the stairs, thief(s) will drop the safe, make lots of noise and, hopefully, damage toes.- If you don't have a safe
Trigger lock goes in few secongs with lil screwdriver: Gun lock goes in few more seconds with paper clips: For an average gun safe - its more complicated - you will need a 3 years old kid : You can't really secure the gun (or anything else) without an expensive safe - still depends who is going after you. If your goal is to make sure your weapon can't be used against you - just remove the bolt. Put it in your pocket or laptop bag. In case with AK it works easy and takes seconds to put it back if needed. I've been told Texas National Guard secures their M16s by keeping bolts separately.- Help with a math problem? Ver. Impossible?
Price of purse = $15 (because she spent half of remaining money and has left $15) $50-$15(left)-$15(purse)=$20 x+2x=$20 $20/3=$6.67 shampoo 6.67x2=$13.33 lipstick- Saiga 223 AR mag conversion
7.62x39 and 5.56x45 are different in a lot of ways. MAYBE you can have few rounds feeding from the mag (if the mag fits at all), but there might be bunch of things going wrong. There is a reason why 5.56x45 mag is almost straight while 7.62x39 mag is "banana". SGM Tactical/Surefire makes good 10 and 15 round magazines for Saiga 223 (no bullet guide needed), they are about $25-$30 if you can find them available. I think a while ago there were some for sale on this board. Depends on how many mags per rifle you want to have, buying SGM Tactical/Surefire ones could make sense or, if you want a lot of mags and already have AR15s, probably conversion would be good idea.- Saiga 223 AR mag conversion
Hold down you said Wasr 10? It's 7.62x39? Than I doubt it would work ... I think only Wasr 3 was 5.56x45. If you have Wasr 3, than just take a mag and insert it into your Saiga, should fit just fine. - any good rifle safe deals?
