DOOOH!!!! okay, I'll fix this later when I get back from work tonight. Okay, I think I fixed it.

I'm just curious to find out how many folks belong to a 2A rights organization. The poll is blind so nobody will know how you voted. You are invited to leave comments if you so choose. If you do leave a comment, it would be helpful if you also state whether you feel you had no other choice but to join or if you simply wanted to join. Thanks for participating.

Free shipping is for new first time customers and any order $199 or greater.

A lot of cops get murdered with their own weapons. I think they should implement these safety measures with LE first and see how that works out. Bwa ha ha haaa Just kidding. Like cops would even consider using this crap.

Long answer..... UNDER 16" the NJ compliant muzzle device must be long enough to bring the OAL of the barrel to 16" or greater. Additionally the device MUST be welded to the barrel at least 2/3rd of the circumference. Since your threaded barrel is 18" This is irrelevant. 16" and OVER.... You may use the above described method to permanently attach a NJ compliant muzzle device, however, silver solder or blind pin and weld are also acceptable if the barrel is 16" or longer. I recommend the pin and weld method. Short answer. Just pin and weld the fucker.

I've read many reviews about the SCCY 2 and they were all generally positive. The only potential issue could be the DAO trigger. It's a little heavier and has a tiny bit of take up. Overall it's reliable and small, it fits the pocket/nightstand role well. But you will have to get used to the trigger.

I recall hearing second hand that there will be a brief period where there will be an ammo glut in almost every common caliber, including .22LR. Prices will fall through the floor then slowly creep back up to normal (and fair) market prices. I forget what the original source was but if you Google it, you can probably find the article.

Can anyone recommend a roofer in Monmouth. I live near Monmouth Park.

I think those were only those lounge lizards.

Did they log your purchase as handgun ammo or did they just want to see your FID?

"ammunition specifically designed to be used only in a handgun. " What part of this is unclear?

This experiment has reached it's conclusion. So there you have it. It is PSA's company policy to categorize rifle ammo as handgun ammo. Well, I canceled the .22LR from my order and instructed them to send the rest of the order. Hopefully there won't be any more nonsense with the order. Honestly, I'm more pissed that they did not make it clear from the get go that they required my FID for .22LR, than the stupid company policy itself. I only found out that they would not ship my order after I contacted THEM nearly two weeks had passed from the date the order was placed. I have found the names of the three owners and am in the process of writing a letter to them. All in all I like PSA, even if they are slow and obtuse. Maybe making an appeal to the top brass will effect a positive change in their attitude in doing business with NJ.

Not holding my breath. I canceled the order this morning.

I've been out of the shooting sports loop for about 25 years. I guess since then NJ sportsmen have been taking it up the ass so long that they have learned to like it.

You are probably right. However, there are a number of on-line retailers with more brains than PSA that do have .22LR and will ship to NJ without any additional ridiculous conditions.

9mm, 38sp .357etc, were designed specifically for handguns. .22Long Rifle.....take a guess.

Finally PSA has given me a specific reason. It's the .22LR. Here is my reply. We'll see how it works out.

"specifically designed to be used only in a handgun." .223 can be used in a pistol (AR pistol) 20GA can be used in a handgun Pedersoli Howdah Hunter 20-Ga. Pistol .308, .270, 7mmx08 and many others can be used in Thompson Center 7.62x39 has been used in a variety of semi auto hand guns. I can buy any of the above center fire rifle calibers all day long without a hassle (ie having to flash my FID or have my purchase logged) and they are clearly capable of being used in handguns.None of the above referenced calibers were specifically designed for use in a handgun. 38sp, 357Mag, 9mm, 45ACP, all specifically designed to be used in a handgun, and I have no problem forking over my FID for these calibers. It is the law and I follow the law. Even if it is stupid. .22 Long RIFLE........ DUUUUUUH. I'm not shy, I don;t think my thumb print is ugly and hate to show it to people, there is no tin foil in my hats. It all boils down to a matter of principle. Sure I could just fork over my FID and this would all go away. But I don't like being bullied, I do not like doing unnecessary things. Unless someone here can convince me that NJ State law REQUIRES .22LR be logged as handgun ammo, I will argue this ad nauseum.

It is a matter of principle. Do you have to show the gas station attendant your drivers license before they pump gas? If it's not required by law then it is an unnecessary intrusion.

As a practical matter .22LR by design and by name is not specifically designed for use in handguns. Otherwise it would be called .22LP for long pistol instead of rifle. What I also find interesting is that air gun pellets in any caliber is specifically designated as NOT handgun ammo. So .177 and .22 caliber air gun ammo, which can be used in highly regulated air pistols, is NOT handgun ammo. Ergo, .22LR is not handgun ammo.

Can or must? If I buy .38sp or 9mm I MUST hand over my FID. The last time I bought .22LR in NJ, which was a very long time ago, no such requirement was in place.

It's been a while since I've purchased ammo in NJ. Most of what I buy I get on-line. What's the deal with buying .22LR? Do you have to give them your FID because it can be used in a handgun?

UPDATE Things are getting interesting with my inquiry about my recent order with PSA. Long story short. They refuse to ship my order until I send them a copy of my FID. Since I have not ordered any pistol caliber ammo, there is no need for me to send it. However, I suspect that they want it because I ordered .22LR. I can only suspect that, because they will not tell me what item in my order has prompted them to ask for my FID after repeated requests for them to do so. Correct me if I'm wrong but. LR does stand for long rifle and .22LR can be purchased without having to hand over a FID to comply with handgun ammo purchases. Has anyone here ever had to hand over a FID in NJ to buy .22LR?

NJ needs more public land to shoot on, not more private ranges. The WMAs need to unwad their panties. 30 years ago I could go to a number of places to shoot for free. We need that back because joining the NRA and paying steep initiation fees ain't gona encourage people to get out there.

I personally would go with a simple thread protector on any 16" or longer threaded barrel. I believe muzzle devices do have their purpose in life however for pure accuracy and not being an annoyance to your range mates a simple thread protector with a good target crown on your muzzle will give you good accuracy. I spent a good chunk of change on my 18" match barrel so I'm reluctant to do anything that will change it's properties. If heating a muzzle to glowing red hot made guns more reliable and accurate then people would be doing it all the time. Anyway, just drill the TP, mount it, throw a small pin in there and weld that sucker shut. I also recommend using a little LocTite RED. This method is 100% compliant and least destructive.
