Difference in laws unbelievable

Recommended Posts

If you are a legal citizen in New Jersey and get caught carrying a gun without a permit we all know you are in for a world of hurt.  I just heard an interview with the police chief from Milwaukee and he explained that they problem they have there is that illegal possession is just a misdemeanor.  Thugs in the hood are much more afraid of being caught without their legal gun in the hood than being picked up by the Po Po with the same gun.  Unbelievable.

I was born and raised in NJ, moved away for college then lived in Wyoming for 5 yrs and finally moved back to NJ. Stayed another 15 or so years and last August we decided to move over the border to PA. Milwaukee might be a crazy story but what's even more crazier is that we are 15 minutes over the border and it's like we live in a different world as far as gun laws go. The day I got my PA driver's license I went straight from DMV to the sheriff's office. I filled out a form, gave the officer 20 bucks and 15 minutes later I have my carry permit along with a smile and a "have a nice day sir!" It really is unbelievable.

Only in this wonderful state you'd be "up to something" while trying to apply for a permit.

Perhaps anyone stupid enough to live in the People's Republik of NJ is too stupid to carry a gun.  But, when I go to Pennsylania, I haven't noticed a vast enlightenment.  Maybe NJ just has the dumbest politicians.

No, just the dumbest voters.

Not sure what I am missing here. I would think illegal possession of a gun being only a misdemeanor is a bad thing. I think the penalty should be increased to a felony.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
