  1. Yes it, but I think it's chrome lined
  2. I have the same RRA upper as you do fatty. It was my first AR built and after assembling the lower (spikes tactical stripped lower with a magpul rifle stock, standard lower parts) I decided to buy the complete upper. Shooting it at 25 meters ( I usually shoot in an indoor pistol range in PA) it was pretty accurate with American eagle 5.56mm ammo. Independence isn't as accurate with my gun. Just letting you know, the barrel is HEAVY! I weighted it with my bathroom scale with a loaded hex mag in the mag well and and other loaded magazine in a buttstock mag pouch and the total setup weighted 9 pounds. Keep in mind I'm just running Troy fixed sights, the front site post and a nylon sling. I really got to join a outdoor range near I live. That gun is meant to be shot at a longer range than 25 meters.
  3. I agree, the pistol grip is the most "useful" (imo) evil feature of the AR design, but how about a collapsible stock? Different shooters of different sizes can shoot a rifle better if it fits them better. That's what I'm trying to explore here. Perhaps, but I'm not sure which stock are we talking about. Even if the said "ugly NY style stock" is a fixed stock, then the only other evil feature that could go on the rifle is a flash hider, and I'm not interested at all with flash hiders if I got rid of the pistol grip.
  4. I'll pass on that, maybe someone else could play the test dummy.
  5. But if you wanted to block the AR mags yourself with the magblocks wouldn't you either have to block them in PA or go through a gunsmith to block them any?
  6. So an AR spur grip is still a pistol grip under NJ law?
  7. Are these magazine blocks NJ legal?
  8. I'm trying to talk to him out of it. He has a bunch of standard 223 AR mags but he has a bunch of ammo for his saiga rifle. He is set to do it to do it but I keep telling him to just build a 556 rifle.
  9. I think so too but the law is kind of vague. Different states have different definitions on what constitutes a pistol grip. It would be nice to have a collapsible stock for a rifle to suit different shooters.
  10. I just got a quick question: what constitutes a pistol grip under NJ law? I'm building a AR 15 carbine and since a AR 15 has a detachable magazine, I know it can only have one evil feature. Pretty much all the ARs I seen in Jersey has the pistol grip, which counts for the one evil feature. A flash hider or a collapsible stock is not allowed if the semi auto rifle with a detachable magazine has a pistol grip. In New York and in California, in order to have a detachable magazine in a semi auto rifle, the rifle needs to be featureless (I'm only guessing all you know about featureless rifles. So now let's get down to gravy. If I decide not to put a conventional AR-15 pistol grip and instead to put something like a hammerhead grip, AR spur grip or even put a fin on a conventional AR pistol grip, can I have an other evil feature like a collapsible stock or a flash hider? I'm just asking and have not started to build my AR, that will be further down the road when I have the money for all the parts. Thank you for the help.
  11. Hello everybody, I'm new to the forum. My friend is building an AR-15 that is chambered in 7.62x39. Since he is going the 7.62x39 route he can't use his conventional 223/556 AR magazines. If he wants to get magazines chambered for 7.62x39 he can only order magazines that hold 10 rounds. Who could pin standard magazines to the NJ legal 15 rounds? Thank you for the help.
  12. I just bought a 995ts last Friday. It sucks that the 15 round promags could damaged the gun; 10 rounds can be a little boring and the new red ball 20 round magazine is not allowed in NJ. I ordered two extra magazines, my gun only came with one magazine. Hopefully they come on Friday so I can spend less time reloading when I take it shooting this weekend.
