Just got the flyer from Aim in my email. Noticeable deal was the Spikes AR15 lowers, $79.99 with free shipping.

 

Just order a few, ship them to your friendly FFL. =)

These are nice lowers. Only thing to watch out for is some mags don't drop free. My C-Products mags are one of them.

Hmmmm, any clue how long the sale lasts for? Definitely interested, but want to wait until after the weekend show.

they typically dont last long... hence why I bought them.

 

Had the same idea for a show, but have not seen Spikes lowers for less than $100 at any of the shows. Figure it no tax and free shipping...

 

as opposed to lets say you find it at gun show...

 

$90, + 10 entrance, plus + 6 tax + pics/nics, and you are spending the same money.

 

Also, Valley forge is a big show, so the prices you will see there are not quite the best prices as you would run across at the smaller shows.

Im not necessarily referring to JUST looking for a lower at the show. But I dont want to drop that on a lower, and then be short some cash if I find a good deal on another firearm at the show.

Thats a different story then.

Stripped AR Lowers are considered "pistols" in PA, and can not be sold directly to a NJ resident. They would have to be shipped to an FFL.

 

So keep in mind you would have to add FFL transfer fees to any stripped lower you purchase in PA.

 

ETA: A spikes lower at 79.99 is a freakin amazing price!

I believe that changed and you are allowed to now.

Are you sure? That lower being a pistol thing happened in the last couple years.. I'd be surprised if it changed so soon after going into effect

I am 85% sure.... would have to ask the guys on PAFOA... but I believe too many people were irritated with it and it was reversed. I can be wrong about it though.

they have more in stock...

One can only purchase a long gun from a dealer in another state. A lower is not considered a long gun. This is Federal Law. So it must be sent to a NJ dealer.

?

 

Yes, these have to be shipped to an FFL, cannot be shipped to your house.

 

You can go to a store out of state and buy them there though, still nics and all.

No you can't. Sorry Maks. It is against the law. ONLY long guns can be purchased out of state, and only from a dealer.

Open Leter to All FFLs

so what cant they do? Ship a lower to an FFL?

Maybe I am missing what is being posted here.

 

In short:

One can not acquire a stripped lower in another state. It is not a long gun. A dealer can only transfer a stripped lower to a resident of the same state and the acquirer must be 21YOA.

Ok, that part.

 

Just to make sure... perfectly fine to have it shipped to your nj ffl. Not kosher to buy it out of state as it has to go to your FFL, and cannot be bought as an out of state long gun.

Yes

Off Topic but does the part of this letter where it talks about frames and receivers not being handguns mean technically an ffl can sell a 1911 frame without a pistol permit? NJ law will probably trump this anyway.

No. For NJ purposes, there are only long guns (FPID required) and handguns (P2P required).

Damn, they had them in other day and now there out of stock again. One concern: does anyone else think the full auto marking on these are a potential legal problem?

I have seen it mentioned at least once here that markings do not pose a problem as long as the firearm itself is only semi-auto only.

Perfectly legal

Think I phrased that wrong. I know it technically is legal, I'm just a little paranoid that those markings might push it from no questions asked legal to "let's figure this out back at the station"/"prove it in court!" legal.

I dunno.. there's really nothing to figure out... it would take a cop all of 2 seconds to move the safety selector from "safe" to "fire" to realize it doesn't go past "fire".

I was just looking at these but all of the FFL's around me want 50.00 plus 16.00 nics check. Kinda ruins the deal.

 

Anyone know of a reasonable FFL in southern jersey? Cherry Hill area

My local shop charges $45 + NICS, I think that the lowest I have heard of that is open to the public is around $35.

There's a couple guys up north that do them for $20-25 + NICS. Doesn't help ChrisEdens, but just sayin
