Nobody wants to be a test case, but, because of NJs intentionally ambiguous laws, every case seems to be a potential test case.

Biden Administration Moves to Cut-off Civilian Access to Lake City Plant Ammunition
For the most part, they are equipped with AK pattern rifles. It's what they know. They have been receiving precision 308 and 338 sniper rifles Very little in the way of M4s or anything that would require 5.56. It's all about logistics. They have mountains of AKs and ammo all over eastern europe.

It's the opposite of dearth. Duhh.

SPR build
All the cool kids are going with 2 stage, in fact, the SPR spec calls for a KAC 2 stage. As an SPR owner myself, I believe the trigger ( If you are serious about precision) should be the best two stage you can afford. It is equally as important to precision as the barrel and upper receiver. In my SPR, I started out with a vanilla ALG milspec, then "upgraded" to a NiB coated ALG ACT single stage, then a G2S, then a SSA, then a SSA-E, all in the same rifle. When I first began shooting, the trigger would not have made much practical difference, now I get a tiny bit annoyed when I shoot one rifle with the SSA and then the other with the SSA-E. Even though the difference between the SSA and SSA-E are minuscule, it's enough of a difference to tighten my groups by at least .25moa.

- Bullets, 308 147gr FMJ M80 .23/ea
These bullets are factory seconds, @ 23¢/ea ($113.00/500ct), who cares. It seems these bullets are normal except for slight variation in weight (+.2gr-.5gr avg). Structurally, they are fine. I have no experience with them, but reviews on AS and another site suggest they are as good or better than milspec and popular among service rifle reloaders. I just ordered 500 to mess with. Price is too good to pass up. AMERICAN BULLET CO 30c (308) 147gr FMJ M80 https://www.grafs.com/retail/catalog/product/productId/89586- Taking up fly fishing..

I think I'm going to get ahead of this and order a new firing pin for one of my 22lr rifles. I know someone who can laser etch FJB into the pin.- Daily humor thread

Maybe the ruling will not be in favor of 2A and they don't want men dressed in Hand Maidens Tale costumes showing up in DC.- Taking up fly fishing..
It's like riding a bike, you will pick it up again. Don't be surprised if you soon find yourself looking at hip or chest waders. Trees and brush suck. The difference between low end gear and the good stuff is performance. It's not like a $1,000.00 rig is more difficult to manage or complicated. Flies on the other hand, start out with the cheapest ones you can find. Buy or make some practice flies and retrain yourself casting into a bucket or garbage can. By panfish, do you mean sunnies or crappie? Those lil guys do put up a good fight.- Price of gas
Did FJB shut down Russian refineries here in the USA? It looks like the game is being set up so everyone can point fingers at everyone else. It's Russia, it's closed wells, it's the refineries. All I know is the VERY FIRST thing FJB did was shut down XL and it's been down hill ever since.- NJ Bill would require landowners to get the permission of neighbors to hunt
That bill already exists, except, it is the other way around. It's the neighbor who has to ask you permission to hunt on land you own. The proposed bill fails in so many ways and SCOTUS will kill it dead, if it even makes it that far before being incontrovertibly declared unconstitutional.- Price of gas
That's only 5 cents cheaper than QC in Eatontown, and QC prices are on the high side at that station.- Eight Black Hawks
Eatontown, 1505hrs, eight black hawks in loose single file formation flying west at a leisurely pace. For a moment, I was concerned Hillary heard I said something mean about her cartel. Anyone else spot them?- Another Year, The NRA will NOT be getting my $$$

@Smokin .50 Never mind..... DDG results say they are Classic Arms Co. 44 Cal New Orleans Ace pistolas.- Trigger recommendation
ALG ACT and BCM PNT are good single stage triggers. Both are superior to gritty creepy mil-spec. I like the PNT best, take-up is smooth, consistent all the way to the wall. The ACT seems to have a tiny amount of creep towards the end of a press, and pull weight is progressive, which makes it less predictable. In spite of my nitpicking on the ACT, it's still much better than any basic trigger group. Though I have no personal experience, I've heard many times that Ruger's "Elite" trigger is excellent. It's worth watching some YT video reviews, on any trigger you are considering.- new gun regulations coming!

When I get around to rebuilding my 7RM, I'm going to install the loudest brake I can find. Louder means more fun. Hope everyone on the flanks will have double ears on.- Best NJ legal AR muzzle brake?
Why do you need a brake, is the recoil from a .223/5.56 round too much to handle? You can always put a recoil pad on. If it's to control muzzle rise, then what you want is a compensator. Brakes deal with recoil, comps deal with flip, brake-comp hybrids make noise. - Bullets, 308 147gr FMJ M80 .23/ea
