NH permit no more for NJ residents?
BigHayden replied to springfieldxds's topic in Firearm Hobby / Sport Discussion
I picked up my NH permit a few years ago, when it was $25 for 4 years. Now that the price went up to $100 for the same duration, I decided not to renew it this time. Looks like it wouldn't have mattered if I had decided the other way... -
Right, on state/local issues in all 50 states. That's why they have the state associations.

So much FAIL... I guess you don't listen to GFH radio. I suggest downloading and listening to episode 109.

Umm, you are aware that the ANJRPC is the NRA, aren't you?
-
I don't think they had any members left...

If you read it on the internet, it HAS to be true!

Get ready for more speeding tickets in NJ - wonderful :(

2010, actually. Not sure if the NJSP has settled on a new patrol vehicle yet. -
Need some reccomendations on tools. Sockets specifically.

Sorry bry@n, missed this post... Guess Mac is out too. My Father-In-Law (mechanic of ~40 years) has recently switched back to Snap-On. He used to be a die hard Mac guy, but switched to Matco about 12 years ago and then Snap-On in the last 2 years. Guess the quality is speaking for itself. -

No love for Mac Tools? -
SAF v NJ (MULLER et al v. MAENZA et al)
BigHayden replied to joejaxx's topic in Current New Jersey Gun Laws Discussion
The 4th circuit opinion said there is no right to carry outside of you home. The 7th circuit disagreed. That's still a split on the core right. The NY case was brought on grounds that it was expensive, though I can't remember if the 2nd circuit opinion mentioned the specious "the 2nd Amendment only applies in the home" argument. I think SCOTUS is looking for a cleaner case, like MD or NJ. ETA: Correction: The Kachalsky case wasn't the one regarding the fees; it was "proper cause", and the ruling actually acknowledged that discretionary permits were an infringement on the 2nd amendment, but it was OK because some of NY's firearms laws predated the Constitution. (If that doesn't make your head spin...) -

BigHayden replied to joejaxx's topic in Current New Jersey Gun Laws Discussion
I guess the 7th circuit doesn't count? The declined cert, which means they agree with the lower court ruling which stated we have a right to carry outside our homes. The NY case was rooted more in the fees, rather than the arbitrary nature of the issuance of permits. More likely to see the MD case or even the NJ case granted cert by SCOTUS. We're not done yet... -
As others have pointed out, she can't change that one since it's a statutory agreement. Plus, UT already changed their law requiring anyone seeking a UT non-resident permit who resides in a state that has UT reciprocity must have a permit from their home state first. That satisfies the goal of the AG, which is preventing PA residents from carrying in PA on another state's permit.

non resident VA no longer recognized in PA

I guess NH and AZ will be next on Kane's hit list. Edit: Missed the post re: AZ... -
Make sure she's busy on Election day...

The GMC Acadia/Buick Enclave/Chevy Traverse can be had in the configuration you're looking for. A friend of mine has a Buick and she loves hers. ETA: Congrats on the twins!

So if you have to shoot someone with HP ammo, make sure you empty your gun, lest you be in possession of HP bullets. Which is exactly why our firearms laws start out by stating that possession of a firearm is a crime, except... Affirmative defenses have their place, i.e. self defense as an affirmative defense for homicide, but they have no place in laws governing possession of anything.

NJ ANTI-GUN BILL COUNT NOW UP TO 76! – 03/24 /13
BigHayden replied to bhunted's topic in Pending Legislation Discussion
Buono is a "strong" candidate? Not according to the polling. 75% don't know who she is, and the polling shows her trailing by 35 points. Christie's approval rating is in the upper 70's. He doesn't need to worry about winning NJ, he needs to worry about what he does on guns and how it will affect his national ambitions. -
Why one gun per month?
BigHayden replied to Old Dog's topic in Current New Jersey Gun Laws Discussion
Since the average "time to crime" for a gun purchased in NJ is 12 years (compared to ~3 for other states), we should see the reduction in crime in just about 7 more years. -
Florida Carry permit in Penn??
BigHayden replied to thevinstigator's topic in Firearm Hobby / Sport Discussion
If you have FL already, NH is easy, though it has gotten more expen$ive (was $20, now $100; still a 4 year permit). -
Actually, the new ones have an extended mag release from the factory. Goes to show that Ruger actually listens to their customers.

BigHayden replied to joejaxx's topic in Current New Jersey Gun Laws Discussion
I think the 3rd Circuit opinion will be handed down at the end of the session (Septemberish?), but it's likely to be appealed. So we're still over a year (more like 2) away from a final ruling. So to answer the question before Ray Ray asks, "No, we can't carry yet." -
Well, who needs more than 13 (nope, can't get 13 under OGAM without filing for an exception) 12 (nope, can't get 12 now because we have "NICS" taking about a week to process) 8 handguns a year anyway?

I love my Beretta 92FS, but the PX4 does nothing for me.
