If you've ever wondered what the output from a car's black box looks like, here it is. This is from the crash of CT Lt. Governor Time Murray. I guess the data doesn't quite match his story. Hard to believe, a politician's story not aligning with the evidence.
If you have a lawfully issued CCW, it does not matter if it's original, on paper or on plastic! It does not matter is it's a copy!
There is an SBI# and a permit# on that card that can be verified by the issuing authority and that is all that matters!
NJ law just says "unloaded". FOPA (Federal Firearm Owners Protection Act) says "separate from the ammunition." NJ law applies to NJ residents in NJ so "unloaded" is enough - no definition in the law. The NJSP website used to say that the ammo needed to be separate - that was not true. Don't know what the website says now.
To me, magazine outside the gun, but in the same bag, is good enough. But with anything gun related in NJ, it just takes one bad prosecutor, a judge who goes along with the bad prosecutor, and a jury who doesn't understand the law.
i don't think they can charge me for not showing them the original? there's a few guys transferring permits onto plastic. if they do however, i keep the original in my wallet. so if they do try that game, i'm still covered. i hope.
I'm considering keeping mine in the back of my Jeep Wrangler. Per NJ law, it would have to be stored unloaded. Does anyone know how that is defined? Can I keep it in a backpack with a couple of loaded mags in a separate pouch on that same backpack? How about with a mag inserted, but no round chambered?
