Was wondering what your thoughts were. I just bought a new handgun have put maybe 100 rounds in and it's having an issue that likely warrants sending it back to the manufacturer to look at. The question I have is the manufacture said to fill out their form they give me a label and send it back. Called the FFL I got it from they said the same thing. Called another one that offers gunsmithing services to see if it was something simple and they said all warranty stuff has to go through an FFL I can not send it directly back to the manufacturer. So not sure what way to go.

Does anyone know what constitutes immediate family? For example, does a grandparent or in-law etc.

Was wondering if anyone has had any issues with their references not getting the email. I did my FID card about a week ago and neither of my references has gotten the email yet. Does anyone know where it comes from that maybe I got sent to their spam folder or something?

Just called my local PD to get the ORI # and they told me that I still needed to use the old way through them that they are not currently set up to use this new online system. I am under the impression that all towns have to use this now. Any thoughts?

So here is the word from both the SP and the AG's office. Law's of inheritance in NJ are as follows. As his child i am entitled to part of his estate, what is required and what was already done was for my mom to be made administrator of his estate by the surrogate court. This had to be done to get his life insurance. Having the letter is simply a backup and not legally need per the AG's office as his heirs are my mom, me, my bother & sister. The notarized letter is just icing on the cake if you will.

Was wondering if anyone knew any specifics on the inheritance of firearms. My father passed away recently and has left to me a pistol. It is my understanding that in doing so there is nothing that i need to do other then take position of it form my mom. While he did not have a "Will" he did leave a few things in writing this being one of them. From what i have read although i do have a FPID i do not even need that all i need to do is not be a prohibited person.

So I just moved and i went ahead and did a change of address for my DL. I now have the sticker on the back with the new address. The address on the front is what matches my FPID. I am going in the next couple of days to apply for the new FPID and a couple of Pistol Permits. My question is if anyone knows be it one of the FFL vendors or just another member. I am looking at getting either a 12GA shotgun of some kind or a ruger 10/22 does me having did a change of address with DVM affect by ability to buy a firearm till they issue me the new FPID or is the only thing that matters is that my name match what is on it not the address so much. Also if it does not matter on the NICS for and the NJ SP paperwork when i would get a new long gun do i put the new address or do i put the address that is on my existing FPID.

Auction scheduled for 9/8-9/15

I have a NJ Compliant Stag AR15 to make it NJ Compliant they have swapped out the mill spec buffer tube with one that has a single threaded hole and the stock has a hex bolt holding it in. The LOP on the rifle is a bit long for me and my father is a machinist by trade. We were talking and I am looking at getting a Magpul ASP for it so when its off i was going to have him drill a new hole and tap it for me. Would this be OK I would not be able to move it with out a hex wrench of some kind. I mean people use Mill Spec tubes and std stocks all the time with just a pin in them and that seems ok..

Sootch00 is good. i also watch 7TRUMPETSPREPPER, also engineer775 Practical Peppers he was or still is partners with SoutherPrepper1 and is the one that with him was doing the analysis for Doomsday Peppers.

I left the rifle at an FFL in PA for now will most likely just pick up a nicer break and pin it my self next time I am back in PA most likely a couple of weeks.

Hey whats up AK Friends, I recently bought a Century WASR10 AK. I noticed before I took it to the range the first time there was was looked like the pin holding the slant break on sticking up through the barrel like a little dimple. Did not think there was anything major with this as I assumed it was normal. I brought it to the range a couple of week's ago and put about 60 rounds through it for the first time. Rifle was working normal had no issues with accuracy for my first time with the rifle. Came home put it back in the safe. Happened to be at a friends in PA this weekend and he has a PAP with the slant break as well was looking at his and there was no dimple. I looked at mine (brought it to go to the range with him but that never happened) I noticed my break was a little loose like his was (normal for an AK) looked under the break and no pin I was also able to remove the break as well. Is this normal or should i call the FFL i got it from and talk to them or should i call century?

I know 3/8 ar500 will work heck 1/4 will work for pistols but i wanted to know about just regular mild steel or anything else that is less expensive then ar500

So I just joined CJRPC i know in both the pits and other outdoor ranges we can use steel plates. Know for my rifles I obviously use AR500 plates but for my pistols do I really need ar500 plates can i use just simple mild steel at say 3/8" thick.

Anyone know of any ranges in the south / central jersey area (Ocean/Monmouth). I am in the market for a red dot only one i have tried to use was a cheep Walmart special open reflex type. If i am going to get a new one its going to be one and done have it for life of the rifle just looking to try it out before i buy it.

All, want to join CJRPC i know they have a normal meeting the last Wed of each month for the new members and then you are given your access the following Wed. I am in a peculiar situation my other memberships at Brick and Range 14 have expired does anyone know of a way to become a member sooner then this last Wed / first Wed. I have some time off and wanted to go shooting and refuse to pay hourly when i am paying to join CJRPC.

So I am normally an AR15 kind of person but figured like all good firearms owners an AK in the safe is a must. I was looking at this and from what i can tell the only thing that would need to be done is to weld a break on to the front and pin the mags at 15 rounds. http://www.onlinegundeals.com/ItemDetails/741215842/CENTURY_INT_L_ROMANIAN_AK_47_SLANT_BREAK_AND_FULL_WOOD_STOCK_7_62X39_CAL_NEW.htm

Hey guys I am not really a shotgun guy but like all good firearms owners a 12GA is a must in the collection. I know the Remington 870 & Mossberg 500 are kind of staples like the Remington 700 is for bolt guns. I have been doing some reading and found out about the H&R Pardner 12GA. Seems to be they are owned by the same company that owns Remington and this is like a clone as it accepts many of the same aftermarket parts (Stocks, etc) as the 870 anyone have any experience with this as its about half the price of the 870..

So the reason I am asking this is not that i have anything to hide but my fear is that someday NJ becomes like CT and if there is no registration then NJ does not know i have it now I know from some LEO friends that say if they run my FID number any firearm I bought in the state of NJ shows up not just pistols so if I bought at say Gander Mt. does NJ know about or is it just a COE like a person to person in NJ and nothing gets reported back to the state.

So here it is, my understanding of state & federal law is that I can buy any long gun I want out of state and would only have to register it in NJ if i wanted to as NJ has no requirement for registration. The reason I ask this is as we all know the SP form that all in state FFL's require is also required I found out by Gander Mt. and Cabelas as well. Is this a State of NJ requirement or a company policy of them. I would like to get a couple of shotguns & bolt action rifles out of state at one of the larger big-box stores or mom & pop shop if possible but from what i am hearing from the NJ SP is unless they also have a NJ dealers lic. they can not sell to a NJ resident.

So, i know the US Army version of the rifle is simple a re-barreled long action so what i am wondering is if i was to get a 700 in say 30-06 could i simply change out the barrel. Now i essentially have two guns one in 308 and the other in 30-06 as it was bought. I know this might void the warranty but i am fine with that. I just like having as many options as i can as i know when the craze was going on last year 308 was almost no-ware to be found but 30-06 was still plentiful.

I would be happier then a pig in you know what if we get CCW here. I think its totally nuts that i can drive a little over an hour from where i live pull over take my pistol out of the trunk and put in my holster and no one says anything.

The difference is if i do it my self and screw it up kiss the whole rifle good by and i eat the cost. If i pay a gunsmith to do it and he screw's it up then he is buying me a new rifle simple as that also he then has to deal with the ATF and SP to explain / fill out what ever needs to be for a disposed of firearm.

Hey guys the wife bought me for V-Day a Remington 770 in 308. I know this is not the best rifle but for the price she got it for I will more then serve my use for now till i get a 700. The barrel is pressed into the action so unlike the 700 that I could have my father thread by simply unscrewing the barrel does anyone know of a gunsmith in ocean county area that might be able to do it for the 770 as its kind of stuck in the action.

All my NJ Gun Forum friends need some help with some reloading questions as I am looking at getting in to it for various reasons (money, tailor my loads, just plain fun) I guess first thing first I know I need is a press etc. what are your thoughts on this kit. It looks like it has everything except the dies i will need (9mm, 45, 223, & 308) let me know what you think. http://www.cabelas.com/product/Shooting/Reloading/Presses-Dies%7C/pc/104792580/c/104761080/sc/104516280/RCBSreg-Explorer-Reloading-Kit/1581576.uts?destination=%2Fcatalog%2Fbrowse%2Fpresses-dies%2F_%2FN-1100195%2FNs-CATEGORY_SEQ_104516280%3FWTz_l%3DSBC%253BBRprd751609%253Bcat104761080&WTz_l=SBC%3BBRprd751609%3Bcat104761080%3Bcat104516280 Next Powders & Primers from what i can see you have to order online in NJ as it is about the only option i know of as places like DICK's etc and local shops don't really carry primers or powder. The problem from what I have read with online is the HAZMAT fees are crazy so unless you are buying a lot its rather cost prohibitive. I know i will need a reloading book for various reasons (powder amounts, max case length, etc) but is there any other info i should know like best type of powders for specific loads etc is there a thread already going that I may have missed. Thank you all in advance.
