    DJD0770, I've heard so many different opinions on transfer laws and exemptions, I don't know what to believe.

    But the subsections b., c. and d. of N.J.S.2C:39-5 you quoted for me don't seem germaine to the matter of a non-owner's handling of a handgun.

    From what I've read and was told, (including on this forum) the only exemption for a non-owner of a particular handgun to legally handle the same is at a range or gunshop.

    We are legal only by exemptions. If you can show me where NJ law specifically permit a spouse/friend/etc. to handle your handgun outside of the shop/range I'll gladly yield.

    There's a ton of misinformation out there about NJ firearm laws (e.g. hollow points.). I don't want to be adding to it.

    Not long ago I had a police officer over for dinner and he was telling me that I was guilty of a serious crime by not having trigger locks on my unloaded firearms at home. Of course, he was wrong.

    I had a police officer and his family over last night for a social visit.

    We got to talking about firearms and he mentioned that if you have kids 14 years old or younger at home you're required by law to have your firearms not only unloaded, but locked up as well (ie. in a safe or with trigger locks).

    Up until last night my understanding was that NJ law required all firearms to be unloaded. (though locks, etc. were strongly recommended.)

    So after he left I spent an hour or two searching NJ statutes and again only came up the law regarding unloaded firearms...if there are kids 16 years old or younger present.

    I did see that Ocean County requires trigger locks/safes. So are those statutes local or statewide?

    And if trigger locks/safes are required by law, and BB guns are considered to be firearms, do they also need to be 'unloaded & locked away' to be legal.

    Thanks for any help.

    Does anyone know whether local/city governments could override or deny the right to cc for permit holders even if this bill becomes law?

    If they can, they will. Imagine every county, city, and town having their own particular regulations. Every cc permit holder would eventually get locked up.

    BTW, 500$ per year is ridiculous. Bi-annual Psych-evaluations are ridiculous (proving your sanity to some anti-gun shrink...twice a year??? And if they don't like something about you, they not only take away your cc permit...they'll come for your guns!)

    A Bi-annual proficiency exam...who gets to set the standards? And what will be the cost?
