Dicks says Nj has ammo limit

[woodentoe 14]

Weeknight ammo purchase brought me to dicks in Woodbridge. Ammo put in an alarm box to the register. Sales guy and I were chatting about online ammo deals and tells me that Nj law says you can't own more thN 500 rounds of any caliber.

 

That's a first.

[Duppie 73]

He had better be talking out of his a** or we're all in violation.....

[ALAN553 27]

Hey Dick....show me the statute! I am sure there are many here that purchase ammo online at 1000 rounds per order, especially when there is a good deal to be had.

[Kaiser7 33]

Where is this law in NJ? I wouldn't doubt it, honestly, but I think that's bs, I'm CERTAIN if something like that were proposed, the NRA would be all over it, just kidding.

 

NJ2AS, in all honesty, probably would have caught wind though.

[jrfly3006 42]

Complete and utter BS...no such law

[Krdshrk 3,877]

I hope you set him straight

[rightisright 3]

Complete and utter lie.

[woodentoe 14]

I said no. He assured me. I shrugged. Then he was telling me that he used to get 1k of .223 for xx amount. He felt funny buying so much ammo but the deal was too good...blahblahblah

 

Then I had to bring my cased ammo to the cashier, give my NJFID again and affirm that I'm a us citizen, give my DOB to her.

 

I only argue last minute realized that I mistakenly gave her my gun club ID card instead of my NJFID. I apologized and she said oh no problem. I was wondering why the numbers were shorter.

 

WTF? Lol

It was Dick's. What can you expect? Most employees are experts at everything and were under-qualified to be WalMart greeters.

I bet about 80% or more of the forum members would be violating that BOGUS law of 500 right now. I know I would be one of those breaking the so called law, stupid DICK or more like misinformed DICK.

Sooo I shouldn't have 3,000 rounds of 22lr in my closet??

Well, at least 3 times I've bought 6 cases of 12ga shotgun shells.

 

That's 6 x 10 X 25 = 1500 12ga shells each time, so at least they didn't worry about that.

 

I'm almost out of shells, too....

[Melgamatic 66]

Respectfully, at 3000 rounds you're seriously understocked (but that's an old joke on these forums).

[njJoniGuy 2,131]

May as well lock me up forever and throw away the key is there's a 500 round limit!

[Clintoon Eastwood 2]

I even have 500 plus rounds of .223 and 5.56 for an AR which is only a complete lower right now and NO mags for it.

 

I just can't believe how these DICKS come up with such BS...

[A-Tech 8]

You mean I'm not supposed to keep all this ammo hidden throughout my house...like in the walls and under the mattress? I shoot 500rds in minutes on some days.

[NickC 23]

Soooo those 525 round boxes of federal bulk pack 22lr that Dicks sells are illegal? Hmm good to know.

[Arbelest 29]

Haha nice catch!

[Smokin .50 1,907]

I'm still exhausted from the last thread I got passionate about. Dick's got a visit from the NJSP and possibly the BATFE. Maybe the paperwork didn't add-up and now there coming-out with their own CYA rules?

Very true Sir, since I bought 2 boxes of .22 cci blazers bulk 525 rds each from them about a month ago @ dicks in Union.

[mcbethr 42]

Oh dear. I had no idea. I better go shooting tomorrow just to get my round count within the law...

 

"Sorry I can't go your your mother's house tomorrow, honey. I really have to go to the range, trust me. It's very important."

[M4BGRINGO 139]

Not all of their employees are that clueless, right Henry?

 

I love it when Henry pushed the cart for me with 10 cases of shotgun ammo in it. I know it far outweighs him!

 

So, that would be 2500 rounds of 12g shells, guess we were over the limit............

[PeteF 1,044]

I think maybe I'll enjoy some mall air conditioning and screw with the ammo guys at Dicks tomorrow.

I just have to LOL at this

[High Exposure 5,664]

 

Soooo..... Now what am I supposed to do with all of this?

[Melgamatic 66]

Soooo..... Now what am I supposed to do with all of this?

 

That's a very nice starter collection!

[Twpbaseball10 0]

hes really stupid considering they got boxes of 525 .22lr ammo in the safes haha

[The_Matrix 105]

 

Soooo..... Now what am I supposed to do with all of this?

 

Give it to me.

 

I'll help you keep it under 500!

[woodentoe 14]

I rounded down. His point was you can't own more than one 52t5 box of 22. This came up when we were talking and I mentioned the dunns deal for 5250 rounds free shipping. He decided then to school me.

 

Facepalm.

[A-Tech 8]

It's a good thing he was working that day! Think of what you could have possibly missed out on. Nothing like gaining knowledge from Dick's employees.
