Storing gun(s) at different location?

Recommended Posts

No nothing bad on why lol...A friend of mine asked me because I have been shooting longer then him (he just started) and he didn’t know. Something is going on currently dealing with family so that’s why. He didn’t know if someone could store for him, or if he would have to see if paying a LGS rent to store it.

Depending on how "serious" this "thing" going on at home, your friend may be better off selling the goods. Next best thing is to rent gun storage in FAR away places like PA and have a receipt. 

If its not serious things, he is concerned about someone illegally accessing his firearms at home, local LGS is the way to go. 

Not long ago someone posted a bitter case of divorce and some of the things the poor dude had to do in staying clear of being accused of abuse. NJ is a crap place to be caught up in something like that with legal firearms. 

 

I am not a lawyer, dont pretend to be one and not implying anything serious going on. Just 2cents.

I would not consider self-storage units in any way secure for firearms storage: http://www.nj.com/middlesex/index.ssf/2017/01/police_probing_possible_connection_of_storage_unit.html

Gunsitters is the way to go.  I believe some local ranges also have storage lockers available for rent.

Not sure what the situation is, but all it takes is for someone (she) to say "he pointed a gun at me" even if it's not true then your life will be upside down.  Best to have a documented way to show you did not have possession of said firearm.

    • This mindset baffles me. Shooting is a depreciating skill. If you don't practice, you will become worse at it. If you value your life enough to want to defend it, why would you rely on a skill that you don't practice? If the best I can do on a good day is scrape a pass on CCARE, I would be determined to get better at shooting - and yes I did see that you scored 98% - but your attitude appears to be that you shouldn't have to practice first. Trying to give you the benefit of the doubt, perhaps you mean that the government should not mandate that you have to meet any kind of standard before you can carry. I agree. There should not be any mandated quals. However, only a fool would be carrying a gun he can't use effectively. It does little to protect himself and creates a danger to everyone else because the misses will go on to hit something or someone after they miss the intended target.
    • OK let me explain. If you use your 9MM to qualify you will probably need to practice before you qualify so you go through 125 rds of ammo. Using expensive 9mm ammunition that's probably close to $0.40 around is costly. If you used your .22 LR pistol the price drops to less than 10 cents a round. I easily qualified with my Glock 226  ( 1 miss out of 50) but burned up  a lot of ammo practicing. We should not be required to qualify to exercise a constitutional right and it should not cost a few hundred dollars to do so.
    • Up for sale a Nikon Monarch 1.5-4.5X20 Riflescope. Scope formerly sat on top of my old Mini 14, so it is used. It also has some aftermarket lens covers on them (Buffalo Creek I believe). I'm asking $100 for the scope. Willing to drive within an hour of Woodbridge or meet half way. Buyer pays any shipping costs. First to post "I'll take it" wins the scope.
    • In 50 years of living in NJ I've never experienced any attempt to inspect the interior of the home, and only one definite inspection of the exterior for an announced reassessment of all properties and that was a drive by. About 9 years of that was living in an apartment, but still, uncommon. Every place I lived had either a finished attic, basement, or both. But they were also included in the habitable square footage on the taxes when we got there.
