Thank you. I shall do the same.

Thanks. I figured it would not be an issue. To your point, my only concern is a subjective TSA inspector not fully aware the FTX is not a true hollow point, per se and flagging it.

Hi All, I will be heading to Dallas next month out of EWR. Just checking to see if I'm okay to travel with Critical Defense ammo. (9MM FTX). American Airlines web page does not indicate a restriction, so I would guess I'm fine. I've traveled prior but packed ball ammo. This will be my first flight trip with the FTX ammo. Thanks for any tips or comments.

I like the Taser Pulse. Nice feel, very light and is very much like my Glock 43 as far as size, so very concealable. Yes, it's pricy but as noted by others, you can legally carry it and it is at least something in the way of an insurance policy for personal defense while outside the home. The plus model has the ability to send your location via your smartphone to LE should you ever need to deploy it.

Welcome fellow UHGC'r....

Agree. However, Roberts needs to follow the Constitution. And must do so with strict scrutiny in our case. It is not supposed to be about wrestling with any personal views or outside noise. The 2A is clear and States within the union that attempt to usurp it must be stopped. I get your sentiment and I too feel he is the wildcard, but being on the high court, Roberts need to put that stuff aside and rule based on law. Hopeful on my end here and for us all.

I will read the response brief shortly, however, I agree with your assessment. I'm very optimistic that the true rule of law will be interpreted appropriately. My wish is for Justice Kavanaugh to write the opinion and stick it solely into the chest of one Cory Booker, who made a mockery of his confirmation hearing. No way Kavanaugh forgets Booker and payback/karma will be rightfully bestowed.

Very good assessment. I agree 100%.

Still infringement regardless. There is no inference of “need” in the 2A let alone “justifiable need”. They can cite all the cases they wish but the fact remains that NJ has instituted a de facto ban on carry and should be struck down. I think cert will be granted and Grewal et al will not prevail.

This Friday is the day for NJ to respond. Should be interesting.

I think there is some merit to this. Toss the anti-2A crowd a "bone" to keep them at bay. I watched the recent rally and was happy to hear him restate his 2A position. Hopeful for good things to come for us. Keeping the faith.

I’d have to think that can get what they wish now. If I’ve read the ruling right. If the law was found to be unconstitutional as I am understanding then any limitations are same. Time for NJ to get this case going or updated citing this ruling

Yep. Saw this. Can this be used to help our NJ case? CA Federal court ruling. Does the federal level have more weight in other states that have the same ban or restrictions?

Yes, very common. Stay the course.

I'd love to do the citizens arrest of them all.

Unfortunately the only way it changes is the power of the vote. Nothing will change otherwise, barring a miracle at the SCOTUS. (Which I try to be optimistic of).

I chose my references based on the application criteria of individuals who can speak to my character and have known me well beyond the time periods required. I told them I was seeking to purchase firearms and needed to supply references. They were more than happy to do so and neither of my references owns firearms. Those are the types of references you want

I certainly can’t argue with you. I know it’s a long shot but I have to believe all this heightened rhetoric is surely being noticed by SCOTUS. Especially the recent threats of declaring a national emergency on firearms as democracts have been spewing in retaliation to the president. I also believe Justice Kavanaugh to be a professional, upstanding justice, but it could be a nice twist to “send notice” to Booker and NJ should they grant cert in the Rogers case. Other states are slowly but surely taking positive legislative steps as well. Think we’re at 16 states now with constitutional carry with more to go. Still a long ways there as well but I’ll take any positives as good towards justice for the 2A.

This is the only way we get our rights back. Good news indeed. Now if RBG would just move on. ;)

That’s a great question. As we saw here with Murphy, they hold these round table meetings but never include the counter parties. They stick only with like-minded yes-men/women. That’s pretty much how tyranny is defined. And then of course, after they pass all these infringing legislative measures, it takes years to fight in court. Along with burden of costs. I’ll keep saying this, it is all on SCOTUS to take these cases and act.

Any links on the 2nd mosque attack where an armed good guy chased them off?

Thanks. Makes sense.

Yes, that is what should occur. All matters of infringement should be stricken and ruled un-constitutional. There are 16 states (last I recall) that are constitutional carry, no permits. Some are newly added like OK and KY. I could only hope the NJ cases attorneys will cite to SCOTUS. The 2A has been through enough political BS and it needs to be restored in full to the entire Union.

Good info by all. Thanks. So "if" it were to succeed at SCOTUS, anyone have any crystal ball thinking on the possible scenarios? I know it would all hinge on the wording and opinions of the court, but interested in other folks views. Just trying to stay positive and hopeful. LOL. Would it be immediate upon ruling? Would the state have a timeframe to comply and facilitate means of permits/processing? I know i'm putting the cart way before the horse, but if this were to happen, would it possible that since we've all been through the process of FID application, with background, mental health, reference screening that the FID serves as CCW. Albeit a photo ID may be best for positive ID which the FID lacks, so perhaps a reparation for the state to issue photo ID, no costs (wishful thinking). Would some level of training be needed or included, much like with Utah or Florida classes we've taken. Happy to hear thoughts of others. Keeping the faith.
