Legal self defense ammo?

Recommended Posts

Might be a dumb question, but what if there are 2+ bad doods. Or you are hit out of nowhere and miss the shot for some reason?

OK.. Don't yell at me for bringing this up again, and I didn't want to start another thread, but I just had a conversation with an old friend about HP use here in PRNJ. He said you can't use them for HD. I said you can and remembered this discussion. Well I just read and reread N.J.S.A 2C:39-3f and I just don't see where it says anything about use for HD. Is there something in the wording I'm missing?

This state sux. Did I mention that before?

How are you suppose to understand laws written, or in this case NOT written, like that? I know my buddy wont except that as an answer but I'll act like hes the dummy.

That might work. He lives here too...after all.

Laws don't give us permission to do things, they tell us what we can't do. If there's no law against something, then it's legal.

Thats as good an explanation as any. Gotta remember that one.

I should have read a few more responses down from the N.J.S.A 2C:39-3f post. I might have remember. Oh well, I can blame it on me getting so old I guess....

 now what were we talking about again???

Possession is explicitly illegal with exceptions provided. Jersey law does indeed state what you can do, and all else is illegal.

Just to clarify to someone that stumbles across this thread in a few months, Mipa doesn't mean to say that using HP for home defense is illegal. He is making a point about the posts that everything is legal unless it's made illegal.

Sorry for bumping up an old thread but this topic came up in a welcome post.

I'm a US Law Shield member and I posted this question on their forum.

Since Nappen's law firm is affiliated with them (and who you get when you need help by using the service in NJ) I'll trust the answer they give as being definitive.

 

https://forum.texaslawshield.com/index.php/topic,2446.0.html

 

They did answer.

There is no prohibition on lawful use of JHPs in one’s home.

 

So if the discharge at home is legal, using JHP in that discharge at home is also legal.

This is the the same as shooting JHP at a range or while hunting. Which is legal to do so in NJ.

FWIW, if a body is not found in your home, how are you involved? The pig shit and fraidy scared little flits here are going to have trouble dealing with this, but reality is what it is. If you did the right thing, why would you let a hoplophobic prosecutor make his bones on you? Here in New Jerkoff, that is exactly what will happen.

This is why I'm a member of US Law Shield. Better to have pro gun lawyers watching your back in a state like this when the time comes to use your firearm outside the range.

    • 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.
