Incorrect. HR 218 / LEOSA states that current sworn LEO in good standing with their Dept, from any state may travel to any other state with pistol and CCW it. He just needs to keep his ID and badge on him while carrying. So, not only can he bring it, but he can carry it - including hollow point bullets if they are what is issued/approved by his PD. The only thing he has to follow is any mag restrictions the state he is traveling to has enacted. Mag restrictions are not covered under the act in its current form. http://www.leosaonline.com/ Now, Some departments have restrictions on bringing service weapons across state lines unless it is for official business - my agency has this. But I can bring personal guns that i have qualified with when I travel. I would advise him to run it by his supervisor or department legal counsel first - he wouldn't be breaking any state or federal laws but he could be violating department policy.

Coincidentally, I just got pulled over again this morning. I had just left my house, running late for work, and as I went a little too quickly up the hill around the corner from my house, I spotted the unmarked car of our local PD. When I saw him pull out, I immediately pulled over and got my documents ready. He was polite and professional, and when I explained my situation, he treated me kindly. I expressed my sincere gratitude. The unloaded shotgun in the back of my vehicle was never a subject of conversation.

I just got back from vacation in Hawaii and spent a day in Pearl Harbor. Toured the Missouri. Breathtaking. I can only imagine what it was like during battle. Awe inspiring? How about seeing your great-uncle's name engraved on the ships roster... I lost it right there.

THATS where you land the chopper. If a picture of an Iowa class firing all guns at once doesn't give every red blooded American male a raging erection, I don't know what will... Even as a submariner....I'll be in my bunk...

Picked out my outfit for the HE meet up....figure I would go with this since HELL will freeze over by time he schedules it

"Your" Outdoor Alliance? Me thinks that possibly renouncing your membership might be a good thing Naive Newbies (shooters) can be explained. Since this is NOT the first election cycle they've publicly supported SWINEY, it's long past time for the inept FUDD to get his/her head out of their asses and actually understand the Big Picture here!

I have never used an FFL in a private sale although that is a viable alternative. I always have permits in hand as others have suggested. I have run into situations where the one gun a month rule is the issue. I have had the seller just hold it for a week or so until the 30 days pass. Sometimes leave a deposit, sometimes pay in full. I have had a seller I've dealt with multiple times hold on to a gun for 2 months because I didn't have a permit. If I wanted to buy more than one from the same seller I have the seller fill out the paperwork. Sometimes give a deposit or even pay in full. If you're asking a seller to hold on to a gun for you, you just need to agree on terms that both of you feel comfortable with.

been watching for months.. they sure are dramatic on this one. After like 8 reschedules they better hear the damn thing!!

Always have permits on hand.... The second solution, if you run across a great F2F deal, have it sent to an FFL you have a GOOD relationship with. The forum is a GREAT place to start that. Typically your smaller FFL's will be okay with it. the other option, particularly if it is another forum member who has a good reputation/trader feedback score, pay for the gun, have them hold it until you get your permits. I have done both. Hope that helps.

The cheapest things in those pics are the cars.

3 simple rules. Use your best judgement. Don't be an asshole. Shut the fuck up.

Use your best judgement. Don't answer questions not asked. Be polite. Keep in mind the cop is just a guy or girl doing a job - It isn't personal. Whatever you do - Don't lie. The fastest way to Reasonable Suspicion is to get caught in a lie. From RS it is usually a short trip to PC.

Idk bud. Circuits don't bode well with emp. Powder and a projectile. Timeless

Don't fall for it Tex! HE is trying to hood rat work us.

Thankful I got the RV plus. Aren't you jeep guys supposed to keep spare u joints( cause the are small.

I love the old Battleships of WWII. The idea of bringing them back makes my heart soar like an eagle. Could America Send its Old Battleships Back Out to War? I know they are not suited to the modern battlefields we are currently facing, but man, they are badass.

Purple is fine, as is pink and yellow. It's like Jeeps, the color doesn't matter since the contents (or mods on the jeep) are more important.

That's the thing, we didn't invent some awesome new technologies since the 80s. About the only thing that really started being done more was blended powders, which is mostly in other round than pistol SD rounds. What really happened was the FBI developed a well defined set of criteria after blaming their gear for an event primarily driven by a series of procedural fuckups against determined individuals. Develop a test and everything on the market starts to converge to the year criteria of possible. Which is what happened.

Doubt it. There are people who have had direct threats and injuries been denied. You get a NJ CCW when you are dead, a politician, or buy serious political influence.

Not everybody is lucky enough to be able to cast their own......if I could, I would. Still creepy crawlin' around these parts.

HAHAH yeah I know i'm really a lousy party crasher here. I do enjoy the debate though! It would take us between 2-3 years to build a new battleship, based on past experience. In that time, how many bombers and half ton bombs would we build? If it takes 2000 seamen to run a battleship, you could conceivably have 2000 planes with a couple bombs each. You have three years to train your pilots, build the planes, and ordinance. In the end you either have one big ship, or thousands of planes and skilled pilots. Having said that, I would pay good money to be on a battleship when they fired a full salvo!!!

True but I don't think someone carrying under LEOSA would be prosecuted under GFSZA for just driving by the school. If you read the wording of the act it only exempts LEOs while in official performance of their duties. If you want to interpret the GFSZA strictly that would mean an off duty NJ LEO couldn't drive by a school armed. He or she would have to stop, unload and secure the firearm and continue until they were 1000 ft away on the other end. I've seen maps of Elizabeth and Newark with 1000 feet of a school zone marked. There's no way you can go through either of those cities (or most cities for that matter) if you were a off duty LEO in the state and not be in violation. If you're a retired LEO in NJ and have a RPO carry permit GFSZA exempts you from the 1000 feet but state law (as permitted by LEOSA) prohibits carry on school grounds or buildings. LEOSA has no mention of the GFSZA or schools for that matter IIRC. It allows the state to prohibit firearms in or on government owned property. I'm not saying on school grounds but driving by shouldn't be an issue.

All you have to say is "collecting." you don't have to prove anything. Furthermore, it is the state police that approves them, NOT your municipality. I have yet to hear of anyone that has had the form denied however. =)

what, I say what in tar nation is going on in here???

Time and time again we fall away from KISS and the law of Murphy. It always becomes costly that gamble

Yes, they would charge for Nics + Transfer typically, since the gun would be on their books. It is cheap insurance versus passing up a really good deal or a rare gun. $40 is quite reasonable. Well, if on a different forum, I would not leave them with the gun there since no one knows those people. Here, after time you develop relationships and trust folks. =)

Right lol just look at Newark, Camden, Trenton, East Orange..... I need to move

Ok, I'm wingman then

If Bruno meets a skunk (which is known to happen out there), it will be an uncomfortable ride home...

Ooh, did not know those round safes were still popular/trendy. Such a shame to have such gorgeous guns in a metal box.... that is why everyone should have a gun room.... you know where you can go, sit down and watch your collection while sipping on your favorite drink....

THAT part I figured out!!! I think I've got HE figured out. Lol

Dihedral doors...

Pick one.

Most apply for 3. And get extensions. Many here constantly keep permits on hand. The current Nj law is only 1 purchase per month. Does that answer your question? i would suggest you also introduce yourself in the "introductions" section .

Couldnt have said it better.

Here's my safe. Only took 117 years for the pistol permits Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

Revolution.

I do know someone that bought one but Im not sure if he has had it out to the range yet. Ill ask for his opinion if you like.

Schedule away brother. I think we are smart enough to make this work. if it was you and Zeke trying to figure something out.... well, then I understand your trepidation.

If you can take pix from inside your safe, you don't have nearly enough guns. [emoji12] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

Rot starting on the bottom? Sounds like a cal/mag deficiency sometimes called bottom rot if it's starting on the bottom. Dilute epson salt into a gallon of water and pour around the root area of each plant before the tomatoes are ripening. Peppers are also subject to this. What kind of topsoil? Better to get a planting mix than cheap topsoil. Also check the PH of your water and soil. If they are off it can lock nutrients out of your plants so no matter what fertilizer you put down it won't get into the plants. I went with raised beds this year and spent some coin on a good quality planting mix. My garden is already exploding. As for fertilizer I went with Fox Farm nutrients a few years ago and could not be happier with the results. I belive midwest px went with Fox farms last year and had great results as well. Before fox farms I used garden tone with decent results.

The Guardian is in the house! Here are some pics for those interested. Rifle locks up like a bank vault. It just wreaks of precision manufacturing. If anyone would like to discuss how to make this rifle theirs, please reach out to me. If you would like to see it, it is on display at the store. The Atlas Bipod is not included with the rifle (Its my personal Bipod) but it could be added to the sale if someone had to have it. Not pictured but included is a very nice Drag Bag from Cadex. A Cadex rifle owner just recently posted up whacking some smallish steel targets at 1100 yards with his own Guardian in 6.5CM .

What happens when the bad guys have RPGs and cannons?

Good stuff. They look great. S.

I didn't want to be rude to your wife and not answer her.

They are definitely a site to see. I love the ships and planes of WWII. When men were men

We are discussing things on a forum. Not writing a history book. If I were I would double check my info. I guess you have never made a mistake. Okay I erred. However I corrected myself in the subsequent post. It was Colts not S&W. The fact is they had 10mm handguns. I took a hit for the 10mm MP5 although I may not be wrong. Yes, military and LE have different needs. Do you expect everyone on the House appropriations committee to understand them? If you recall correctly Sig won the first round of tests for the 9mm, they were cancelled and Beretta won the contract. Many strange things happen in government when you're asking for money to spend. The FBI of course never made a mistake. Back in the 70s their ammo tests showed the 95 gr RP JHP "high velocity" 38 load worked the best. That wasn't reflected in actual use though. My sources were guys involved in the testing. Yes, as the head of the firearms unit Hall okayed the final report. So it contained what he wanted. You can listen to him. You don't have to listen to my sources. Oh yes, to be clear. Sources say Mireles had a 686 and Platt a 586. Look at the Wiki entry for one. It really doesn't make a difference unless you're writing the investigation report. The finish has no effect on the gun's performance. Suffice it to say it was a L frame. We can agree on that. I'm guessing you've never been in a confrontational situation. You don't remember everything. There were no dash cams in those days. One has to reconstruct as best as possible from what people involved did. How are you so sure Platt was moving much more slowly when Mireles shot him? From the TV movie? Everything goes slow mo in a fight. You can look that up if you don't believe me. You can think I'm just an old man with short term memory issues and have no idea what he's talking about. And you would be wrong. As for cracked S&W frames I'm guessing you didn't look hard enough. I never said it was a common occurrence but common enough to be a concern. Just like the slide separations on M9s. I've never claimed to know everything. I'm too smart to say that. I don't know where you get off saying I have a pompous attitude. I never said I'm always right. If it makes you feel powerful and intelligent to do research to sharpshoot me on things that I'm recalling from 30 years ago have at it. A 4" 357 is the best all around handgun IMO. I never said you can deal with everything with it. Most things. Very good for SD against bad guys. I'd prefer something bigger if I had to contend with grizzlies for example. You like a 44 Magnum. That's okay but what do you base that selection on? A 44 mag has less recoil and muzzle blast than a 357? A 48 oz M29 shooting a 240 gr bullet has less recoil than a 45 oz GP100 shooting a 158 gr bullet? Does your 44 defy the laws of physics? If a 44 mag is the ideal handgun for SD why isn't there a single agency or organization that has EVER issued it as primary handgun? Are you basing your choice of a 44 on your extensive gunfighting experience? A full charge 44 is pretty much overkill as a SD handgun. You think a 9mm out of a 2" is a better round than a 38 +P. I dont. But I'm old so what can I know? Think what you want. I don't care. I'm old enough to know I can't please everyone. I've been that way for some time now.
