capt14k 2,051 Posted February 12, 2018 Do people who probably are not allowed to own guns obtain them at an FFL? Probably.In NJ unlikely. Other states it has happened but I'd rather a few get through than more restrictions on the many. Goes back to the whole if you put security before liberty you deserve neither thing.

Not sure what you thought I meant but I wasn't implying anything except criminals find ways to get guns illegally even with the best checks and systems. If they really wanted to stop "gun crimes" they could install metal detectors down the worst streets in the worst cities. Of course that would violate the good people in those cities rights but they are willing to violation the pro-2a peoples rights all the time (especially in NJ)..

Here is the simple answer: there is no such thing as the gunshow loophole. It does not exist. Well someone one another thread accused me of being Governor Phil Murphy with some agenda trying to chip away at gun rights. But it's just that-- paranoia. Yes I do realize now the gun show loophole is fake news and propaganda from Obama and other democrat politicians. There are videos testing it out where the guy wasn't able to buy without a background check. I wasn't looking to do that myself I was just asking for information as newbies often do. In fact every post I write people are responding that it sounds "fishy" but you'd think that other people with an interest in guns who probably own them wouldn't see it as suspicious or concerning that someone else would share the same interest. That's why I don't even feel comfortable asking for 2 references for the FID application. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What does this mean exactly? That during gun shows or a private sale the vendor might decline to do a background check? Could someone without an NJ FID or even a convicted felon by a weapon there?

Gauge their response. Go from there. I' m sure some of the responses you receive will be surprising. Everything from, "Cool, I'll bring my guns. I'll show you the basics." To "Why would you want to do that!?" Don't know until you ask. Good luck. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Malsua 1,422 Posted February 13, 2018 I bought some guns in the early to mid 90s at gun shows. Some folks would advertise "no paperwork". Here's what would happen. You'd buy a no paperwork gun and you'd get rousted by the cops/feds before you got to your car. At least this happened the first few times. It didn't take long until you'd walk along a booth and you'd be told just who the cops were and if you made a deal with someone, you'd arrange to meet them off property. It never happened to me, but it did happen to a friend and some acquaintances. They'd hold you in the lot and run you for wants and warrants, if you came back clean they'd let you go, but they also put a note in your file and if you bought too many guns, they'd bring you in. This was early on in the Clinton admin and the ATF had a hard on to bust everyone who bought a gun without a brady check even though at the time the system was garbage and it could take weeks. I'm thinking it was early 94 and into 95. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gus 33 Posted February 13, 2018 2 years ago, I was at a very popular gun show many of us have gone to in PA. I came up to a table with a bunch of older revolvers, which I find interesting but not enough to buy one (I'm just into other stuff). There was an older guy behind the table. At one point he told me in a low voice, that it was his private collection so no paperwork was needed, if I wanted something we could make a cash deal. I told him I was just looking, and revolvers weren't my thing, then left. I didn't really think anything of it. I figured it was some old dude who didn't know the law, and I wasn't buying anything anyway, so no big deal. Later on that evening when I was leaving the show I stopped at the taco bell just down the road from the venue. The same old guy, wearing the same clothes, pulled up in a PA State Police SUV marked "Supervisor", and ordered some food. Obviously he was a cop. Bottom line, don't buy stuff without the proper paperwork and procedures. It might be the cops trying to bust you! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That sounds like some serious entrapment for the cop to go out of his way to rent a stand with inventory on display everything and then then tell you that he'll sell to you without paper work. What a jerk. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What a jerk. I always thought the same thing, that it couldn't be legal. But, how many times have we all heard that a drug dealer got busted selling to undercover cops. Seems like the same thing. If they can pose as drug buyers, why not gun sellers? I'm not a lawyer, but they must have some sort of leeway in order to do it. Or maybe they are just assholes, I don't know.

What a jerk. Why ? Its their job. They do this with all sorts of things including posing as underage on online forums, drug buyers etc. In fact, in some of the towns here, they have nothing else to do, so they cross road in plain cloths to see who wouldn't stop for pedestrians crossing road. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've not lived there in 22 years so I can't speak to gun shows there these days. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
