This is what I figured. They were waiting to be able to take their guns home after the investigation.

Damn it. In an email response I received they were looking at possibly opening up membership in May and I was hoping to join.

Just because it's self inflicted doesn't mean it is a suicide. It could've been an accident. Sad and I'm sure the media agenda whores will be all over it.

Definite grey area bc the law doesn't say proof of receipt is needed.

Exactly

A friend of mine just got his back today, day #6.

cool thx. I assume this is why they started stamping them "Multi".

yup I called, they said its 5.56

So I did my Lancer L5's this past weekend. I was originally only going to epoxy the spring plate to the spring but it was brought to my attention in another forum that you could just the cut the block further down therefore making it not permanently modified to 15. So I used the gorilla glue epoxy from Home depot to seal the foot plate on. The spring plate was also sealed to the foot plate so it can not be opened. If you use magazineblocks.com, do a dry fit first and test if 16 can be loaded. I did have a problem with one. I contacted them and they were very responsive and sent out a new one that day.

Does anyone know if this is 5.56? Model # shows 223 and they stamp theirs on the other side of the pic shown. Thx

I understand that but if all FFLs started to follow this allowance, I bet they would get caught up real quick.

It doesn't say proof it was received is needed.

Its not in 2C because its part of the Brady Law. 27 CFR Parts 178 and 179 [T.D. ATF–415; Ref: Notice No. 857; 93F– 057P] RIN 1512–AB67 Implementation of Public Law 103–159, Relating to the Permanent Provisions of the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act AGENCY: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF), Department of the Treasury. ACTION: Final rule, Treasury decision. SUMMARY: The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) is amending the regulations to implement the provisions of Public Law 103–159, relating to the permanent provisions of the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act. These regulations implement the law by requiring, with some exceptions, a licensed firearms importer, manufacturer, or dealer to contact the national instant criminal background check system (NICS) before transferring any firearm to an unlicensed individual. NICS will advise the licensee whether the system contains any information that the prospective purchaser is prohibited by law from possessing or receiving a firearm. DATES: This rule is effective November 30, 1998. "Furthermore, the law provides that the system may take up to three business days to notify the licensee whether receipt of a firearm by the prospective purchaser would be in violation of law." Section 922(t) generally makes it unlawful for any licensed firearms importer, manufacturer, or dealer to sell, deliver, or transfer a firearm to an unlicensed individual (transferee), unless— 1. Before the completion of the transfer, the licensee contacts the national instant background check system; 2. The system provides the licensee with a unique identification number signifying that transfer of the firearm would not be in violation of law OR 3 business days (meaning a day on which State offices are open) have elapsed from the date the licensee contacted the system and the system has not notified the licensee that receipt of the firearm by the transferee would be in violation of law; and 3. The licensee verifies the identity of the transferee by examining a valid identification document containing a photograph of the transferee. So my question is why aren't FFL's following this allowance and releasing the firearms after 3 business days of waiting and not receiving a response from NICS? It's as simple as matching a DL with an FID and a big FU to those that are intentionally delaying the response.

I called in to tell the screener to pass along the message to the caller who asked about turning in his Assault Firearm that there is no exemption to possess them and/or turn them in. I couldn't stay on the phone and I don't think she passed the message on.

Where did you order the expoxy from and any special kind? Anyone else want to chime in on where they got theirs.

You can do what you want but the law is as follows: 2C:39-3. Prohibited weapons and devices f. Dum-dum or body armor penetrating bul-lets. (1) Any person, other than a law enforcement officer or persons engaged in activities pursuant to subsection f. of N.J.S.2C:39-6, who knowingly has in his possession any hollow nose or dum-dum bullet g. Exceptions. (1) Nothing in subsection a., b., c., d., e., f., j. or k. of this section shall apply to any member of the Armed Forces of the United States or the National Guard, or except as otherwise pro-vided, to any law enforcement officer while actu-ally on duty or traveling to or from an authorized place of duty, provided that his possession of the prohibited weapon or device has been duly authorized under the applicable laws, regula-tions or military or law enforcement orders. No-thing in subsection h. of this section shall apply to any law enforcement officer who is exempted from the provisions of that subsection by the At-torney General. Nothing in this section shall ap-ply to the possession of any weapon or device by a law enforcement officer who has confis-cated, seized or otherwise taken possession of said weapon or device as evidence of the commission of a crime or because he believed it to be possessed illegally by the person from whom it was taken, provided that said law enforcement officer promptly notifies his superiors of his pos-session of such prohibited weapon or device. (2)a. Nothing in subsection f.(1) shall be con-strued to prevent a person from keeping such ammunition at his dwelling, premises or other land owned or possessed by him, or from carry-ing such ammunition from the place of purchase to said dwelling or land, nor shall subsection f.(1) be construed to prevent any licensed retail or wholesale firearms dealer from possessing such ammunition at its licensed premises, provided that the seller of any such ammunition shall maintain a record of the name, age and place of residence of any purchaser who is not a li-censed dealer, together with the date of sale and quantity of ammunition sold. b. Nothing in subsection f.(1) shall be con-strued to prevent a designated employee or des-ignated licensed agent for a nuclear power plant under the license of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission from possessing hollow nose am-munition while in the actual performance of his official duties, if the federal licensee certifies that the designated employee or designated licensed agent is assigned to perform site protection, guard, armed response or armed escort duties and is appropriately trained and qualified, as prescribed by federal regulation, to perform those duties. Also see http://www.njsp.org/...ire_hollow.html So like I said, they are illegal with exceptions.

http://www.magazineblocks.com has several blocks for different mags. You can get them to make 10 or 15 rounders. Since "permanent" is not defined, I'd say nothing is really permanent except cutting the mag down to a stubby. Having said that, I think if you block it and epoxy it, you've made a concerted effort to make it permanent. I plan on doing this too.

Hollow points are only legal under exemptions and are illegal outside of those exemptions.

That's annoying that they did that. It's not for me anyway so the search continues.

Can that be undone and a brake installed?

The CTR has a hole that you can use and just drill through the slide portion of the tube like I did. The friction lock hides the pin for a clean look(I hit the stock with the side of the drill bit so be careful).

I couldn't even check out fast enough and they're gone

If you no longer had the original spring plate then it could not be reassembled to accept and feed more than 15 rounds right? I'm trying to understand this before I do this so I'm speaking with no personal experience but only having watched videos on YouTube.

Done. Screen shot taken

I would address that ASAP.
