What town is this? I've never heard of this anywhere in NJ. Maybe if they weren't doing this they could get the FIDs and PPPs out on 30 days instead of however long it takes. It sounds like they have too much free time. What long guns you buy is none of their business. I also think it's inappropriate for a police department to waste their time doing this.

I like this one.

I’ve never heard of that. Sounds specific to the local PD. Someone from your town would have to chime in on if it happened to them too.

Not really. NJ politics suck, most of the people are awesome.

Can I stick it in my mother in law's bedroom?

That is unhelpful.

Normal - No! Highly unusual, and i would ask them the reason for the inquiry? Then I would have said I can have my attorney contact you if you like? At that point the back pedaling would begin and the conversation should be over.........

Here's an overview of a basic setup starting from the inside and working your way outwards. First, you have the belt itself which is two piece. Inner goes on you like a normal belt. Then you stick the outer belt to your inner belt. Inner belt: https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1338160029/safariland-030-underbelt-1-1-2-buckleless-loop-liner-nylon-black Outer belt: https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1338127297/safariland-032-els-competition-belt-1-3-4-hook-lined-overbelt-nylon-look For everything except the holster (truth be told, I've used it for a holster too, but QLS is stronger and intended for holsters) https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1338349848/safariland-els-kit-2-pair And then the QLS for the holster https://www.midwayusa.com/product/1338289797/safariland-quick-locking-system-kit-with-qls-19-and-qls-22-polymer To set it up, put the belt on you the way you want to wear it. I would recommend having where the belt joins be located right behind the holster as that's where you won't be putting equipment, anyways. Attach the QLS plate to the belt where you want your holster. Then attach the ELS plates where you want the option of attaching your other gear. Then you attach the forks on everything you want to attach to the plates, and tada, you're done. Pretty much everything will accept a ELS fork, and if it doesn't, it can probably be made to. I've rigged a bladetech holster to ELS before with a drill and dremel. If you mod the belt to attach with a ratchet your life will improve greatly, here's my overview of that and you can also see the belts kinda. Hope it helps!

ANJRPC, the state's NRA affiliate, has had an ongoing effort dealing with permitting issues for years. Here's some blurbs from their website about this: Many towns impose outrageous, unauthorized conditions on issuance of purchase permits, such as employer notification, spousal consent, disclosure of all household member names, and passing a written exam. Many municipalities also ignore state law requiring application decisions within 30 days; some applicants wait over a year before getting a decision. Some towns also ration handgun purchase permits at the rate of one per month, under the mistaken belief that New Jersey's "one gun a month" law applies to issuance of permits themselves.... .... we still need to know about permitting abuses you may be suffering, as well as improvements in the permitting process.... Please tell us about unauthorized conditions, delays, permit rationing, or any other violations, or improvements, in your town. Your identity will be protected, but your input will help us get the job done! Please email [email protected] or leave a message at (973) 697-9270. Please include as much detail as possible. ANJRPC is very quiet about their work on this, by design. Their lawyers have been steadily contacting police departments across the state to notify them of their legal requirements and getting many of them to voluntarily comply. It's also an ongoing challenge as staff within those police departments turns over and new faces arrive. I can respect ANJRPC's low-key publicity approach, because it's best to get departments to comply voluntarily, if possible. After all, sometimes the department is simply misinformed. It does happen - it's not always someone who's just anti-2A... though we do tend to get understandably paranoid around here and assume the worst intentions. But, now that you've had several people (including Griz, who's a retired LEO) tell you that what you just went through is extremely irregular... please call or email ANJRPC and provide the information to them. Although it's great that you posted it here, your fellow NJGF posters can't actually do anything... but ANJRPC has attorneys on staff who can hopefully nip this practice in the bud. They should be made aware.

I'm curious what questions they asked when you were "interviewed". They are not permitted by law to ask for any additional forms, questionnaires, or any other Information other than what is asked for on the state forms.

Emotions and feelings over-ruled logic and facts... again...

I am shocked! NO this is NOT normal! Nor is it ANY of their business what if anything you purchased with that permit! Is there any reason why they would be concerned about you in particular? DO NOT ANSWER HERE! Ask yourself that question. If not, the fact that they made that call annoys me a great deal! Would you mind telling us the name of your town? If they ever call again, DO NOT tell them anything. They are going WAY beyond their scope of authority! I would be interested about what others here think about your experience!

58 million children killed since Roe V Wade let them get behind that.

That info goes into your file and if they ever get a call for service to your home depending on the nature of the call they will adjust their tactics accordingly. The less they know the better... there will never be a scenario where you will be thinking if I had only informed the police of my firearms I’d be better off... it only goes the other way...

Just make sure they're about at the horizon level or above and just keep a general eye out for where the dogs are.

It's like hot sauce....Put that $#!t on everything [emoji106][emoji106]

Fixed it for you.

I've used Breakfree for about 30 years. I've cleaned guns, put them away for a couple of years and they ran fine. I only use grease on Garands. Then it's Mobil 1 grease. I like Dri Slide for the innards of an AR. Breakfree everywhere else. I use Ballistol on wood stocked guns. This has worked for me for years and see no reason to change.

Not really sure about the law in NJ about this. Some advice I got from someone long ago is when your rv is rolling it's a vehicle so treat it like transportation. When you're parked and set up to live treat it like a residence. Sounds reasonable to me and gives you a defense.

I use motor oil on everything, it's oil not rocket surgery.

Oh that one. Yeah I think I tightened it pretty much all the way then backed it out to about minimum.

How about in the case of a second beach home, where you spend all Summer at the shore. Can you have your handgun there? Is that considered your "home" regarding legal possession? Yep, that's why I asked, it's tough to legally find out. Plus, it would depend on what state you're traveling through too. If I'm sitting in a campground in my "portable home", and some nutcase breaks in to try and steal something or harm us, can I legally protect me and wifey, or do I become an instant felon for carrying away from home in a "vehicle"? Questions, questions.. (Hopefully the campground has a range, then I'll be good ).

Most LGSs won't hand over a firearm for inspection unless you present a FID. It's a store by store policy You do not need a FID to transport a long gun to and from a range. You may transport a long gun outside the range exception as long as you have your FID on you. You may only transport a handgun to and from a range and other exempted places like a place of business you own or a gunsmith but you must have your FID with you. You must have your FID on you if you are transporting hollow point handgun ammo to or from any location, no exceptions. This is my understanding of the law. If I'm wrong, the experts will surely jump on this.

I think just about every reporter that covered a hotdog eating contest has eaten at least one hotdog.

The biggest problem America has is the focus on the tools rather then the reasons / motives behind shootings. 1. Gang Violence, Mostly using stolen and already banned firearms which stricter gun control on law abiding citizens will not solve. Maybe enforcing existing laws and giving serious jail time for crimes would help. 2. Non-Reported Mental Issues, If its not reported then no system would be able to stop this person from obtaining a firearm If this country addressed the mental state of people maybe the problem would be solvable. Yet they continue to focus on the tool not the background of the perp. Its very difficult to have a reasonable debate when one side solely focuses on the gun while putting the real issue "The mental health of our youth (and some adults)" as a secondary conversation. Some people want to ignore the fact that these mass shooting perpetrators passed the FBI background checks. The problem in that case is the government failed us... States are not reporting correctly to the Nics system, The US Military did not report a domestic violence to the Nics system. Stricter Nics checks cannot deny a person for something that is not reported to the Nics system. It always seems after a shooting that there were clear signs of an issue.. Parkland shooter is one example.. If just one person in that long chain of government intervention did their job the existing Nics system would have prevented him from obtaining a legal firearm. FBI, Broward County Sheriff Department and Family services all failed to report a person who was a clear threat, The fact kids said they knew it was cruz should scream of an issue. Nadel Hassan is another who clearly was deranged and radicalized but once again the government missed it. It would also be fantastic if the Debate on gun violence included some facts. Ie Automatic Weapons, Military style, 30 Rounds in a second and the entire label of Assault Rifle which does not exist. Ok its early.. i need some Covfefe.

Best of luck. I hope you guys have a RINO Purge during the primaries. Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Johnny. That’s sort of like being an hour away from a place you have an appointment you have ten minutes from now and saying......”we’re not late yet.” But it’s not about what has actually been done to 2A rights so far....it’s about the statements he’s been making. They are not Pro 2A and there’s no way in hell anyone here can say they are pro 2A. That’s bad for everyone. It isn’t the 7D chess argument. It’s simply a bad idea to give up the ground he has given up and not argued for the 2A as a capable 2A supporter would argue.

A police officer can ask to search your car at any time. There are very limited situations a police officer can search your car without a warrant or consent. There is no reason to volunteer the information you have guns in your car. If you know you're not doing anything wrong the easy answer to how to interact is: 1. Tell the truth. The truth is easy to remember. If you're caught in a lie that raises suspicions. 2. Answer the officer's questions. If he or she asks if you have guns in the car tell them. Tell them you have guns in the car. Tell them you are going/coming from the range. As was said follow the rules and you'll have no problems. I don't know where this paranoia about searches comes. If a cop has probable cause to search your car they will search your car and have no need to ask. Coming from or going to a range and having guns in the car by itself is not probable cause to search your car. You will find very few people on this forum who were stopped with guns in their car because it rarely happens. If this were such a good reason to stop people cops would be sitting on roads that come from a range. That doesn't happen. Yes you will find people who will tell you say nothing, question why the cop stopped you, ask for your lawyer, etc. All that will do is piss off the cop. He or she wants to make the stop and go on.

We can all wear our NJGF T shirts!

You wouldn't be able to legally purchase a firearm in NJ within a week even if your life depended on it. I suggest you speak with Carol Bowne for more information on the expediency of purchasing a firearm in NJ after a woman has obtained a restraining order and documented threats to her life.

If your Steve Sweeney, you get a permit in this state. otherwise...fuggedaboutit As of the end of 2013, there were 1,212 active Handgun Carry Permits in New Jersey, out of a population of nearly 9 million residents.[24] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_laws_in_New_Jersey Let that sink in for a minute...there are almost 9 MILLION NJ residents......and 1212 carry permits. That is 0.0135 % of the population. I think the odds of being struck by lightning are better. New York has over 88,000 concealed carry permits issued; Pennsylvania has about 1.3 Million .... Even Freaking Massachusetts - no friend to gun owners - has issued over 400,000. Just how often do you hear about any problem with concealed carriers from these states? It just doesn't happen. People here in NJ are dying because of this.....its a documented fact! On top of this, New Jersey wants to lock up people who run afoul of thes laws thru minor technical mistakes or mis-steps. Single mothers from PA who unknowingly cross the border and run afoul of our goofy, contradictatory gun laws....yet the SAME PROSECUTOR was happy to let an NFL wife-beater --they had him ON CAMERA-- and let him off and walk scott-free! Think I'm kidding? Its real, its documented. New Jersey IS the problem.

I don't think she is. I think this is just one of the many misconceptions out there.

Carrying in New Jersey? You’re kidding! Right?

So profound. You should write for Tee Shirts.

Ms Parker: While many here will be glad to help you and answer any questions you have, I, too, am in the camp that you should go trough the actuall process to acquire a firearm. You don't actually have to buy but going trough that process will give an insight that only comes from actually doing it. Only then you can put to rest the notion you can buy a firearm in 5 minutes, only then you can put to rest the notion that's easier to buy a firearm that to buy a car, only then you get to experience how arbitrary and capricious the process can be, only then you may begin to realize that most of what you read about firearms is written by people have have absolutely no direct knowledge of the process. I should warn you, though, you won't have the material next week, or next month, you'll have it when your local police department decides you should have it-state law be damned. I sincerely whish you good luck and may this experience be educational.

The only way that I'd speak to a writer for the APP is with a written contract that gives me the right of final edit. Think of this like Lucy holding the football for Charlie Brown. Adios, Pizza Bob

Not to be a Debbie Downer, but the APP has shown it's true "stripes" regarding this topic. I would love to see a non-biased article written in it, but based on past performance, I have my doubts. I personally wouldn't give a interview unless I could get a guarantee to approve the article before it's published. I wonder which editor at APP gets the final word on the content? What actually amazes me about the APP is that it is primarily a Monmouth and Ocean paper, which are more Repub counties, and Middlesex that leans Dem, but the APP still decides to push it's left leaning liberal articles. I wonder when they'll finally figure that piece out?

Whoa ! That's pretty balls Z . You just walked right through the front door and whipped it out.

You would be lucky to purchase a gun in a few months in most towns.

Hello Katie. You should try the process yourself for a real hands on experience. No better way than to live the experience! eta: you don't actually have to purchase the gun but do the process anyway just to get the permit
