Supposedly, it removes 1 evil feature from the rifle. Also it would render the platform pretty useless in a HD or SHTF scenario!

Okay. Now it's Christmas! Merry Christmas to one and all here at NJGF! This is the day that we celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ! The progressives want to steal this celebration from us! We must never let this happen....This nation was founded on the belief of God and the Lord Jesus Christ! Let us not ever forget that fact! Today we are faced with a nation where an atheist, illegal alien, transgender, progressive liberal is their best hope! This is sad! The future of our nation is US! "We The People", who believe in God and family and Country! We MUST stand together as one in defense of our country and our rights... Today though, we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ the Lord!

What eggnog? We drink beer and whiskey on this forum!

Thanks guys! So I should not feed it modern 30.06 rounds? What should I look for, Garand ammo?

I'm with @Zeke on this one......Merry Christmas Eve!

Okay, found it! SA 7 42

I removed the top piece of wood and found REP 2 0 on the top of barrel about an inch forward of the front sight. Rather small stamp. From what I have found it's a steel lot code. Seems like the original barrel from 1907. So far the slightly swept bolt is the only sign of a change!

The ammo stash she will never see! She thinks those locked cabinets are full of old paint! Gotta keep the Grand kids away from all that lead.....that old paint might contain!

1) Which safe? #1, #2 or #3? 2) They all look the same to her! 3) She can't count that fast or that high! She's not stupid. She knows full well what I have, Kind of! If I bring yet another gun into the house in front of her, it's kind of like I am rubbing her face in it and she wants to know why I need another gun. She never accepted my truthful answer of "This one is special and a great deal"!

Totally NOT a matter of having to sneak them in! I choose to sneak them in to avoid questions and an unnecessary argument. I do what I want but choose to avoid any questions.

As to question 1. Does Your Spouse Or Partner Know You Have Firearms? If you only had a few you might hide them. When your collection numbers more than 10 or 20, you may have trouble!

Only if she knew it was empty as declared or demonstrated by you going out and you did not declare a it now contained a rifle upon reentry. My wife would want to know why I am carrying empty rifle cases in an out of the house real quick!

The bolt handle is slightly swept back and wood covers 90% of the barrel so I do not know where to look for markings on it.

I just pulled it out of the safe it is Model 1903 and the Serial is 249, XXX so about 1907.

I have this rifle and it's bayonet. My Grandfather bought it still in Cosmoline long before I was born. My Father owned it and I have had it for about 30 years now. I don't think it has been fired since it's serial # is 249,XXX dates it to pre WW1 around 1907. I understand this is not safe to shoot due to forging problems with the early serials. I have had suggestions from not shooting it at all to tying it to a tire and pulling the trigger with a string with a proof +P load it it! The barrel looks unused and I have no way of knowing when my Grandfather got it and from whom. Anyone have experience in this area since I obviously have none! Thanks.

"Cheese eating rat fucks" Now that's funny.....Never heard that expression before.

An Assault Rifle is a Semi-automatic rifle able to accept detachable magazines and at least two of the following: Folding or telescoping stock Pin it Pistol grip You have this Bayonet mount Cut it off Flash suppressor, or threaded barrel designed to accommodate one Replace with a pinned, welded brake Grenade launcher mount Ya right You are now good to go!

I do not sneak new guns in when she is not home. I admitted to waiting until she falls asleep then I sneak them in! It's a matter of not wanting to fight with her. She did the same thing when I collected watches. "You can only wear one watch at a time" or "My $30 Timex does the same thing as your stupid Omega for a lot less money". "You can only shoot one gun at time, why do you need so many". She has no interest in guns nor do my children. She did get her FPID card though and I have cataloged and photographed every gun I own for her. The only thing I don't have yet is an FFL that I know well enough to not take advantage of her.

I was there. The problem is nobody in the government was watching and even if a million gun owners stormed downtown Trenton, not a single libtard anti would change his/her opinion or vote!

I have purchased long arms in the De store. They follow Jersey laws to the letter. You can't have it unless it PRNJ GTG!

As per Magpul:

They are Gen 2s though, no dust cover and none of the improvements the Gen 3s have. Not a big deal if all you have is ARs.
