Where do these questions come from?

Generally, yes, there is a strict possession limit for wives. Parts of Utah are considerably more lenient, though.

Short answer..... No Reality ...... who the heck would know....

The video I linked to above was a "part 2" response to their original video below. It was made by the same people for the same distributor.

You're right wasn't directed at you. You have to do what you feel is right for you. I know what NJ law says. I started as a LEO in 1974. I have never heard of any relative or coinhabitant ever being charged in a legitimate SD situation using someone else's gun. If anyone has heard of one please let me know. We all have to make our own decisions on this issue.

Wives? The owner of the gun is the owner. To place the guns in the possession of your wife or anyone other than yourself would constitute an illegal transfer as far I have heard. Just as my wife can't take my guns to the range by herself without me being there. Not to say I agree with this stupid law, but I don't think the PRNJ gives the wife of a gun owner special privileges. I could be wrong about this though. Others here with greater knowledge will chime in.

No, you WILL be caught and GO TO PRISON!!! Srsly, just do what you need to do, and keep your mouth shut

Just heard about this and then found it on the NRA-ILA site. Rep Chris Collins, of NY of all places, introduced the SAGA bill H.R. 3576, basically making state level AWBs illegal. From the NRA site "The SAGA would ensure that state regulations could not effectively prevent the manufacture, sale, importation, or possession of any rifle or shotgun lawfully available under federal law or impose any prohibitive taxes, fees, or design limitations on such firearms." start calling and emailing your reps and lets get this pushed thru. https://www.nraila.org/articles/20170804/second-amendment-guarantee-act-would-protect-popular-rifles-shotguns-from-antigun-politicians

The latest issue of the ANJRPC bulletin included an article on NRA's efforts to get out the vote for this year's gubernatorial election. They have three grassroots field reps, including the author of the article. If you can tear yourselves away from polishing your blue guns for a few hours this fall I suggest sending NRA-ILA NJ Grassroots coordinator Christian Ragosta an email and volunteering. Christian's email address is [email protected].

Still waiting for confirmation on my order.

^^^True! I advise folks to write the guns specifically so as to comply with the letter of the 2C Statutes that states "if willed directly, then they may pass directly to the beneficiary w/o any further paperwork". I paraphrased instead of looking for the direct quote. The writing of it into the will is to display for the Probate Court the intent of the deceased that they directly transfer, thus avoiding any issue with the Executrix (the wife) having to file for NJFPID or and P2P's and/or OGAM exemption in order to take possession. It also enables an Executrix that is PROHIBITED PERSON to "take possession" for up to 180 days while she disposes (sells) them or transfers them with P2P's and/or C.O.E. paperwork but w/o $ changing hands (such as offspring & other kin folks) & then notifies her CLEO that the gun(s) were transferred to a person whom isn't prohibited. The firearms can also be directly willed to other family members, friends, even complete strangers or museums/trusts, relieving the wife (whether or not she's a Prohibited Person) from the burden of any additional handling and/or paperwork. You can will a complete stranger your gun(s) by name and create no paper trail other than a signed receipt from the beneficiary.

The force is strong in you master.

Mrs Peel, I know you said early on that you didn't want to do IDPA yet, but please reconsider. This Sunday, 20th, I'll be running the monthly Somerset match in Bridgewater. Sandy will be there helping me run it too. We are very friendly to new shooters and there is no time pressure at all. In fact for new people we encourage them to go slowly. If you're interested, sign up at https://somersetidpa.eventbrite.com. It's free to book a spot and $10 on the day which covers your match fee and 2 slices of pizza. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk

Picking this up from Mike @Tier1 tonight. 20746372_681927912004492_220177328282701538_o by ryan19vic, on Flickr LRI 24" 6.5CM Barrel 15" SLR Ion Lite Handguard XLR Tactical Stock Larue A-PEG grip Cerakote: Coyote Tan and Patriot Brown

Suppose coming home from the range I get hit by a bus and the ambulance driver takes my guns for safe keeping. What time will the bus get to Cleveland?

Nowhere in the statutes does it list a Grandparents home as an exemption. Legally speaking, the answer to your question is NO!, Nor does the law allow you to leave the guns with your wife while you went to the store as that would be an illegal transfer. Did I mention how much I hate this state!

Griz, I know this question was not meant for me but I would like to answer for my particular situation......If I got hit by a bus, my wife would indeed need a locksmith to get into my safes. She has one pistol she likes, a Ruger SR22. At my request, she is in the process of getting a NJFPID card and a P2P so I can legally transfer it to her. Everything that is mine is hers as well.....Except my guns per PRNJ rules! I am doing this against my will to protect her should she ever use that weapon in a SD situation so as not to get jammed up by a stupid law.

Yeah. You might as well send it to santa claus. You'd probably get a better response

Done. Guess who my rep is......Donald Norcross! Talk about a wasted email!

John, This ain't about catastrophic failures that can happen in any gun. This ain't about Glock vs Sig - oh, by the way I believe you brought Glock into this conversation. It was not me. I never once mentioned any company other than Sig . This isn't about duty guns vs recreational guns or hard use vs plinking or any of that crap. This is about a known flaw that is dangerous and unacceptable in any gun for any purpose. A design that should never have made it into a production guns. Something that it appears Sig knew about but tried to keep quiet as they rolled out a fix disguised as an "option" or "enhancement". Something that they now state is no big deal as it happens to every striker fired gun - which is total bullshit. Check your HK, S&W, Glock, CZ, Kahr, or whatever manual, and see if there is a warning that states the gun will go off if dropped. Go ahead I will wait. Sig has it in their manual for the first time ever, right there on Page 25. Gee, I wonder if they knew there was an issue? Of course they did, they had enough time to print it in their manual! And they still rolled them out to the public. You may be OK being treated that way by a company. I am not. Sig was great until Cohen took over. He ruined Kimber chasing the almighty dollar by cutting corners and producing a shoddy version of what was once a quality and well made 1911 pistol. Thankfully Kimber is finally recovering since he left. Their newer pistols have been running well from what I am hearing and seeing. Now he is at Sig and he is ruining them same way. ^^^ The best part is the shield guy is running an older Sig. You know, one that won't go off if dropped.

Great choice. I am hoping to pick one up as well. Enjoy it they are fantastic shooters!

First, I'm not trying to start a pissing match. But all is fair in love and war. Now you started the satire stuff. I take all this very seriously, but you always seem to jump in and make Glock or Surefire the top turd to solve all problems. For once, let me see you recommend something outside of Glock and Streamlight. My argument with you is there seems to never be a second place winner. You don't always realize that John Q. are not all hard runners in the field. There is nothing wrong with Streamlight. There is nothing wrong with Glocks either but you never defend any second place holders. If every gun was that bad, we would not have the plethora of guns in peoples possessions that we do. Many of which they are very happy with. I've had Colts, HKs, Beretta, Remington, etc for years. Some where ran harder than others, but never catastrophic failures. Hell, worse case I had was a Browning Hi-Power that blew a sear and went full auto. Startled the hell out of me. Easy fix and back to normal. I'm not saying there are not catastrophic failures. With the age of the internet and more gun owners than ever, we are more likely to see more failures. Maybe there were a lot before the internet and because lack of media, we never knew about them. Look how many times Elmer Fudd blew up his shot gun.[emoji6] So yea, show me different guns that blew their cookies. Could care less. I know they are there. But you are running a major Lemonade Stand on a corner without a permit and secretly selling Koolade from under the stand and nothing else. Get my drift? And just because you know or seen handfuls of Kimber failures, Sigs, etc., compared to the enormous multitude of any given model in the field, your witnessed scenarios are a flea on this planets arse. Hard to find with the Hubble at that. [emoji57] My advice to anyone? Going to run it hard, just want to be a fanboy or scared anything else will poop its pants. Buy a Glock. Otherwise, when you do ask someone what to buy, do your homework first. Then come here, explain what you want to use it for and get opinions. Just remember the cliche about opinions.

Shotlock or Hornady Rapid Safe AR Wall Lock https://www.hornady.com/security/rapid-safes/ar-wall-lock Mount it to a stud in your closet and hang a hoodie on it. No one will ever see it. Put a lockable door knob/handle on the closet as well for when you aren't home. Terrible ballistics when regarding retained energy through interior and exterior walls. A 5.56/.223 AR has better terminal ballistics and less chance of seriously injuring or killing someone after passing through walls.

I'd go AR if I could find a good solution for discretely and securely storing it. A single pistol safe is much easier to conceal in a closet/drawer/etc. right now pistol for emergent and expected event. AR for SHTF when I have more time to get to the safe.

My AR is my go to home defense firearm.. it is light weight.. has 30 rounds of ammo in one magazine.. has a light, sling, and optic as well for precise shots if needed.. and is putting out a rifle round.. which has proved to have relative mitigated risk factor when considering collateral damage post interior wall.. has very low recoil for rapid follow up shots if needed.. The gun is also absurdly reliable.. and has gone many range sessions on end.. with tons of rounds.. and no cleaning.. and just keeps on running.. There is no firearm more suited for the job..

Great info Bob! If you remember, you helped me with my model 25 "frankengun" as you called it. My quick story is one time when Navy Arms was still in business, I bought a boat load of 9mm for my model 659. The damn gun would not feed the ammo and kept jamming. It ejected ok but couldn't figure out why it wouldn't load, as it usually ate everythig. Turned out the cartridges were for a sub machine gun and the projectile was longer than normal and the point (yes they were pointy) wouldn't load because the angle was too high and catching on the top of the feed ramp. Lesson learned.

Here we have a new Syfy called Glocknado.... Look at those teeth! Here is one that landed on a rubber tire. Whoa! Another Syfy. When will it end? Here we have a 40 ' Glockaconda. Imagine your ribs breaking as it crushes you. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji481][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji6] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

Greetings All, What can i say about this pistol that has not been said already...its just great - period! The NutNFancy dude calls this the "sniper's pistol" and he is correct. Its almost unfair to be using this gun. I am a devout steel (1911's, Jericho 941) gun guy and never really got along with poly's (even though i have others) but this thing is tip top. And for being a lefty this is without a doubt most lefty friendly gun i have ever owned. All controls are easily within reach and the trigger really is just stellar. And or a 5" slide it's not that big. I was putting rounds in the same hole without even trying. 200 rounds and not one hiccup. I can't wait to get this out to a match! Cheers AM

Shooting a moving target within 35 feet with a handgun is the same as shooting a static target. There are 3 factors that go into this and they both have to do with you. The first one is being able to actually shoot your gun properly. Meaning all the fundamentals grip, stance, trigger control, no anticipation and pulling the shot down, sight picture... the second is being able to aquire the sight picture instantly. The third one, and this is the big one, getting over the mental part of it. I see so many shooters that shoot really well and when they get to the Texas star stage they get nervous, complain that they can't shoot it, proceed to throw 3 mags at it... meanwhile all their groups on cardboard are 3 inches or tighter and their times are acceptable. Out of all that the one that is hardest to work on is the second one, getting that gun on target instantly. The only way to get to that point is either to dry fire alot or shoot alot. I don't know what .22 you have but most .22 pistols, at least from what I've heard, should not be dry fired. Your best bet and most fun will be steel challenge matches. Steel challenge, also known as steel matches and static steel is your absolute best way to start. You will meet some of the nicest people at shooting matches (and some of the weirdest lol). There is absolutely no reason to be intimidated to go to a match. Almost every competitor stared out with SC and at almost every SC match there is a few brand new shooters. They are extremely new shooter freindly. You don't need a holster, just good safety glasses, ear plugs, 5 mags, gun, hat, lunch and about 200-250 rounds. Your probably less than an hour from Old Bridge Rifle and Pistol Club just make sure it's Jake brown road, if not you'll end up at the indoor one that's not near the outdoor range where the SC matches are. 2 things you need to know when you go, tell them you are new and don't uncase your gun till they tell you to. Get ready to have a whole lot of fun. ..

Go big or go home bro

Sorry but that is very wrong argument to make. Guns get dropped. A lot. I've seen people drop their guns because they were running around and slipped, or hit their elbows on items, or because someone behind them picked up an object quickly and in the process yanked the gun out of the holster, because someone kneeled to quickly near a table and the grip caught a table edge, etc. Guns get dropped, not everyone shoots from a static firing line under ideal conditions.

Too soon for jokes?

Yea the thought crossed my mind. The more Ive read about the Ruger, the more I want to go that direction. I really like the chassis that comes from the factory and it accepts all sorts of mags. Ill be replacing the barrel with one from LRI right off the bat so I know it will be a shooter. Def going for 6.5CM.
