Shot yesterday: 17.2 grains of Lilgun 125gn Sierra OTM 1.50" OAL set using Hornady .30 bullet comparator Temp 64F 100 yards 7 shot group, the one on the lower right was me. The other six are near 1" MOA

I've used Sierra 125gn OTM bullets with 17.2 grains of lilgun. Sierra has a whole bunch of load data available on their website http://sierrabullets.files.wordpress.com/2013/07/300-aac-blackout.pdf Accurate's load data http://www.accuratepowder.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/300_ACC_Blackout_Data.pdf 300 AAC Blackout Seating Depths http://www.300blktalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=141&t=84361&p=791142&hilit=Bullet+comparator+125#p791142 Existing AR magazines have a rib which normally contacts the 5.56mm case-neck. With 300 BLK ammo, the contact is on the bullet. Because the bullet is a larger diameter, the rib will push the cartridges out of alignment, and can lead to binding potentially resulting in Failures to Feed. For this reason, it is important to load ammunition so that the contact point with the magazine rib is on the bullet ogive in an area of about 0.250 inch diameter. Here are some suggested OAL for popular bullets: • Hornady 110 V-Max, OAL: 2.000 • 110 TAC-TX, OAL : 2.015 Some say 2.250. Any shorter and the powder is heavily compressed. • Nosler Ballistic Tip 125 grain, OAL: 2.085 • Remington AccuTip 125 grain, OAL: 2.085 • Sierra H2120 125 Pro Hunter, OAL: 1.950 • Sierra 125 OTM, OAL: 2.230 2.535 w/ Comp. • Speer TNT 125 1986, OAL: 2.010 • Hornady 130 SP #3020, OAL: 2.010 • Military 147 Pulls, OAL: 2.16 2.54 w/ Comp. • Hornady 150 FMJ-BT 3037, OAL: 2.065 • Sierra 155 Palma, OAL: 2.150 • Lapua B416 200 grain, OAL: 1.960 • Hornady 208 AMAX, OAL: 2.150 2.45 w/ Comp. • Sierra 220 SMK, OAL: 2.089

Pm High Exposure. He has a glock 35 slide milled out with a RDS on it.

I wasn't sure if the fee was set by the state allowing dealers to charge no more or no less than $15.

NJ NICS fee is $15 + tax ($16.05). Can a dealer charge more for a NICS fee, or are costs set by the state? Example: Dealer charges $35 for transfer, and $20 for NICS. Isn't it really just padding his transfer fee $3.95?

Laser cut, plasma cut, or torch cut you are going to mess with the heat treat of the AR500 steel. Yes it is a lot cheaper to cut it that way, but why take a chance with safety. Spend the extra money and go with a water jet cut. The last targets I had made up were done that way, they came out great, and no issues. The company that did the cutting for me tried to get me to go that way (laser/plasma/torch), but I would't relent.

I'll echo High Exposure. I have Furys on both 5.56 rifles, and one 15-500 on my duty belt. I thought the 6P LED through off some light, it pales in comparison to the Fury. Check LA Police gear for sales, I picked mine up for $108 + shipping. However, the BCM version is awesome...

eotech, is this how it works, and are these the LEO's that said it was the best?

When I got my liberty safe (800lbs), I paid the extra cash for them to deliver and install. Does Dicks have that option?

Went there last night as well, very crowded for a little room. I think they said something like 54 new members last night.

Can't have "M4" or "AR15" anywhere on the receiver. Regardless if its marked BCM4, ABCM4, TAR15, 123AR15 etc. You can have the same receiver, from the same manufacture, milled to the same dimensions, but if it has "m4" or "AR15" anywhere in the receiver marking it gets labeled as an "assault weapon" It's a rather stupid law. If you need further clarification call NJSP firearms unit.

You still can't have a lower receiver if it is marked "M4" or "AR15". So no Bravo Company lower receivers. The same goes for an M1A, it cannot be marked "M14" (smith enterprises, Fulton armory)

I was saying he has a firearm that could be viewed as "substantially identical" to one of the assault firearms listed in the statute. Since he has a firearm could be viewed as "substantially identical" it would fall under section 2, paragraph (i) of the statute. Since the Ruger Mini 14 has a detachable box magazine, if you follow paragraph (i), he should be able to have a flash suppressor, as long as he doesn't have anything else on the list.

N.J.A.C. 13:54-1.2 Definitions Assault firearms" means: 1. Any of the following firearms: Algimec AGM1 type Any shotgun with a revolving cylinder such as the "Street Sweeper" or "Striker 12" Armalite AR-180 type Australian Automatic Arms SAR Avtomat Kalashnikov type semi-automatic firearms Beretta AR-70 and BM59 semi-automatic firearms Bushmaster Assault Rifle Calico M-900 Assault carbine and M-900 CETME G3 Chartered Industries of Singapore SR-88 type Colt AR-15 and CAR-15 series Daewoo K-1, K-2, Max 1 and Max 2, AR 100 types Demro TAC-1 carbine type Encom MP-9 and MP-45 carbine types FAMAS MAS223 types FN-FAL, FN-LAR, or FN-FNC type semi-automatic firearms Franchi SPAS 12 and LAW 12 shotguns G3SA type Galil type Heckler and Koch HK91, HK93, HK94, MP5, PSG-1 Intratec TEC 9 and 22 semi-automatic firearms M1 carbine type M14S type MAC 10, MAC 11, MAC 11-9 mm carbine type firearms PJK M-68 carbine type Plainfield Machine Company Carbine Ruger K-Mini-14/5 F and Mini-14/5 RF SIG AMT, SIG 550SP, SIG 551SP, SIG PE-57 types SKS with detachable magazine type Spectre Auto carbine type Springfield Armory BM59 and SAR-48 type Sterling MK-6, MK-7 and SAR types Steyr A.U.G. semi-automatic firearms USAS 12 semi-automatic type shotgun Uzi type semi-automatic firearms Valmet M62, M71S, M76, or M78 type semi-automatic firearms Weaver Arm Nighthawk; 2. Any firearm manufactured under any designation, which is substantially identical to any of the firearms listed in paragraph 1 above. As used in this definition, the term "substantial" means pertaining to the substance, matter, material or essence of a thing and the term "identical" means exactly the same. Hence, a firearm is substantially identical to another only if it is identical in all material, essential respects. A firearm is not substantially identical to a listed assault firearm unless it is identical except for differences that do not alter the essential nature of the firearm. The following are examples of manufacturer changes that do not alter the essential nature of the firearm: the name or designation of the firearm; the color of the firearm; the material used to make the barrel or stock of the firearm; the material used to make a pistol grip; and a modification of a pistol grip. This is not an exclusive list. A semi-automatic firearm should be considered to be "substantially identical," that is, identical in all material respects, to a named assault weapon if it meets the below listed criteria: i. A semi-automatic rifle that has the ability to accept a detachable magazine and has at least two of the following: (1) A folding or telescoping stock; (2) A pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon; (3) A bayonet mount; (4) A flash suppressor or threaded barrel designed to accommodate a flash suppressor; and (5) A grenade launcher; So if I'm reading this correctly you can have a detachable box magazine and one of the evil 5, and still be ok. Detachable box magazine and 2 of the evil 5 then its a no go.

The judge has immunity.

2C:39-5.f Unlawful possession of a weapon (Assault Firearms) 3rd degree offense

NJ doesn't have felonies and misdemeanors. We have indictable (1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th degree crimes), and non-indictable (disorderly persons and petty disorderly persons offenses). Indictable crimes are handled @ the Superior Court level. Disorderly persons and petty disorderly persons are handled at the Municipal court level

Questions: Why did the police need to make entry when this is a civil matter between two tenants and or the landlord? What was the emergent condition that required the landlord to make an emergent entrance to the apartment? Once it was determined the renter was on premise, and contact was made with the renter, what was the criminal act that required the police to make entry? Once the PD had the renter in custody, what was the PC, or exigent circumstances that allowed them to search for other weapons without a search warrant? Why didn't the PD secure the apartment, and file for an emergent or telephonic search warrant? Weren't there multiple contacts with the upstairs tenant and PD in the past? How well written is the investigating officers reports? Going from a $75000 cash/bond no 10% (2nd degree offense) to a ROR doesn't make the prosecutors case look very good, possibly some major issues with 4th amendment violations. It is very rare to see someone get an ROR on 2nd degree offense.

The initial bail with original charges was $75000 with no 10% option. Emergent bail hearing took place, and bail reduced to ROR. Does anyone know what he was originally docketed on (2C statutes)?

You can use rubbing alcohol 90% to clean the bore, or hoppes. You can use a nylon or brass bore brush to loosen up the grit in there. Then use a jag with patches to clean out the bore. If the barrel is chrome lined, there should not be any rust, probably a lot of dirt/dust/spider webs in there. PM me if you want help.

The arisakas had chrome lined barrels (unless it was a last ditch), did you at least try to clean the bore? I had a few older rifles I thought had sewer pipes for barrels. Once they were cleaned for the first time in a long time I found they had some really nice bores. Apparently the spiderwebs and attic dust just made it look really bad. Capture papers definitely add some prominence to the rifle. Couple that with a matching numbers rifle, and having all the accoutrements (cleaning rod, bipod, sling, bayonet, antiaircraft sights), will really add some $$$. DO NOT GET ANY FUNNY IDEAS OF SANDING, SCRAPING, VARNISHING, SPORTERIZING, REMOVING, ETC until you educate yourself on what you have, and then really think about it some more.

This will all come down to a motion to suppress by his lawyer. This is not something that is going to happen overnight either. Depending of how backed up the docket is for judge assigned to this case, it could be months to a year before the motion is heard. There are grounds for a 4th amendment violation, if his lawyer can prove the police illegally entered his apartment, or entered it for false pretenses. However, there has been some changes in the law lately regarding finding illegal items without a search warrant specifically for that illegal item. Before when you found something illegal during a search not pertaining to the reason you are there, you had to stop what your were doing, and apply for a new search warrant. Now I think, if you find something illegal during a legal search, everything is fair game. That is true as long as the search was done legally... Anther point to contend: 1. once they had him in custody, there was really no more threat. 2. what were the exigent circumstances that required the police to search the apartment for more illegal items? 3. Did the police clearly articulate in their reports the exigent circumstances that led them to search the apartment for more illegal items with out a search warrant? or once the police had the arrestee in custody, and made the scene safe: 1. Stop what they were doing, apply for a telephonic search warrant with the probable cause they had when they found the first gun? 2. Were granted the warrant, and then found the other guns? 3. Did the arrestee tell them about the other guns? However, none of us were actually there in the apartment when it happened, so we all need to stop the monday morning quarterbacking. I am only speculating on what could have happened. There are a lot of facts not available right now, so none of us should pass judgement either way. If you are friends with the arrestee, do him a favor and don't post anything about him. Let his lawyer do the talking. Disclaimer- I am not a lawyer, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night. There are always 3 versions to a story: his, theirs, and what really happened.

Here is a good article on what the Japanese might of used to put a finish on their rifle stocks. http://www.gunboards.com/sites/banzai/Rifles/Finish/UpM99Fin.htm#Top_update_M99_finish

I just acquired two JC Higgins Sears (Marlin model 80) 22lr bolt guns with scopes. I have a couple of questions about the scopes and the mounts they are in. The first scope is a Weaver cub 4x, with a N2 mount. The second scope is a JC Higgins 4x in Weaver mount. Are the scopes in the correct mounts or were they switched at one time. Anyone have any info on either of these scopes?
