Peter Goldwing 90 Posted December 3, 2016 I dont exactly know where this topic belongs so I put it here. After buying a house in Edgewater Fl I went and purchased my first hand gun, a 9 mm Beretta 92 FS inox. (stainless still) I was amazed how simple it was to purchase. I handed them my driving license signed a few papers paid for it and a few days later (3) i went to pick it up. A bit later i applied for ccw and I received it within 2 months ( the state has up to 3 months to process your application ) The second gun, a 9mm Bersa Ultra Compact Pro I received it instantly as soon as I paid for it. Having a CCW allows you that. Then I bought my third gun a bersa .38. Its an easy gun to put in your pocket and just forget about it.Interesting fact is that the Argentinian gun, Bersa is imported by Eagle Imports located in NJ. I carry my gun mostly anywhere, and Im very comfortable with it. My wife has a CCW and we go very often to the shooting range. When I ride around the country I look ahead for for states that reciprocate with FL and I carry my gun accordingly. If Im in a gun unfriendly state I caryy the gun according to the interstate transportation as regulated by the Feds. ( gun has to be unloaded and locked up in any part of my motorcycle) . Why I need a gun? well I dont need it till I do. I can tell you a few stories but will take too much time. Time ago, when the kids were little I was traveling and staying on the job for weeks at the time. My wife used to put a BUTTER knife under the pillow. LOL Now she and I sleep without concern with a gun within reach . Two years ago I applied in NJ for permit to carry as a non resident ( I been having a good reason) The Hamilton State Police has approved it and forwarded to Mercer County Superior Court. I havent heard from them for about a year then I filed a complaint on Judge Pereksta for failure to process my application. Within a month I have received a CD on which another judge denied my application saying that I didnt put in the dates when the events happened ( urgent necessity) and I didnt provide a consent to check my mental health here in FL . ( the state police gave me all the forms but didnt include such a form) There are a few bills in the house and Im pretty sure one will pass entitling me to conceal carry in NJ Im very very disappointed with NJ legislature. Also the average people in NJ are brainwashed regarding gun laws. Always more and more laws and it prevents nothing. Crime with illegal guns are rampant in Camden Newark Trenton etc. Soon a gun range will open within 5 minutes of my NJ house. Now they are trying to push a bill that you need some other documents to be able to shoot in any range.. If you want your rights protected join NJ2SA and NRA.Peace! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cereza 106 Posted December 3, 2016 After buying a house in Edgewater Fl I went and purchased my first hand gun, a 9 mm Beretta 92 FS inox. (stainless still) Best first gun ever. (I may be biased.) There are a few bills in the house and Im pretty sure one will pass entitling me to conceal carry in NJ If you have a resident Florida CCW you've get a better chance than those of us who live here in the PRNJ year round.

jackandjill 683 Posted December 3, 2016 Peter, welcome to the forum. Please tell anyone and everyone you meet in any other state about our NJ laws. Caution them that they run the same risk in their State if they are not on constant lookout for 2A everywhere. Please, also advocate in favor of National Right to Carry. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I belong to 3 motorcycle forums and some times we organize " ride and shoot" We go to a sponsors place and organize range target shooting. When I spoke to the State Police in NJ I was told the bikers are welcome in NJ to come and shoot at the range. The problem as I see it is that they cannot sleep in NJ. NOBODY EVEN CONSIDER COMING TO NJ WITH A GUN The state is avoided like a plague when it comes to guns. Of course if you read "NJ news" you see crime with a gun every day. As I explained above, I bought and own my guns legally. I looked a lot at NJ legislature and its a total failure. I have a few rental houses and a business in NJ. I can have my gun legally at any of my properties but there is no way to transport them in there legally. You only can take the gun from the house to the place of business or range. Also I cannot take them with me on a bus or airplane. The feds only cover car transportation Of course you can do that in all gun friendly states.
