Decisions, decisions, what's a girl to buy? Guess it depends how long the "System" takes to process the NJ Firearms Purchaser ID Card application from the honor roll & National Technical Honor Society student? She filed as soon as she turned 18, the minimum age in NJ to obtain the card (for now!). Morgan Heacock, a 18 year old senior at Somerset Co. Vo-Tech and Bridgewater-Raritan HS, already has 6 years of firearms handling under her belt. In this clip she tames her granddad's S&W model 27 .357 magnum revolver, similar to the model 66 her parents, Scott & Donna Heacock have already willed to her. CNJFO is proud to be one of her mentors! #CNJFOTeachesKidsToShoot
THIS MAIN BODY BECOMES THE "VIDEO CAPTION" WHEN SHARED FROM OUR CNJFO PAGE:
MORGAN, 18, TAMES GRANDDAD's .357 WITH EASE!
MEMBER's DAUGHTER APPLIED FOR NJFPID CARD!

Most 18 year old NJ high school seniors have almost NO firearms experience. Most NJ girls more so. Morgan Heacock, daughter of Scott & Donna Heacock, grew up around firearms. A senior at Somerset Co. Vo-Tech and Bridgewater-Raritan HS in Bridgewater, NJ, Morgan breaks that glass ceiling and then some! Heacock made honor roll all 4 years, joined the bowling team, is Captain of the golf team and was appointed to the National Technical Honor Society. The granddaughter of Robert Scott Heacock, a North Brunswick, NJ Police Officer who died in the line of duty (E.O.W. 10-02-84), Morgan is filing for her NJ Firearms Purchaser ID Card today! She turned 18 on Thursday, the minimum age for applying in NJ.
Heacock enjoys shooting, having frequented family range trips throughout central NJ to "scratch that itch" and stay sharp too. She started 6 years ago, at age 12, with her mom's Ruger SR-.22 hand gun. Soon she explored other platforms including her dad's S&W M&P.45, her mom's S&W M&P 9mm Shield, their AR-15 in 5.56mm NATO, her brother Mike's .22 Keystone Mfg. Cricket, and the family's newest acquisitions, her granddad's two S&W .357 magnum revolvers being held by retired Police Officers. The short video clip shows her taming granddad's 3 1/2" Nickel S&W model 27 (N-frame) loaded with magnum ammo!
Morgan's mother Donna, a great role model, has been an active CNJFO, Second Amendment Women--SAW and NRA member for years. Going to Rallies in Trenton to fight for 2nd Amendment rights, and often taking her 2 children to firearms classes & ranges throughout central NJ, Donna is a no-nonsense "force of nature" that understands why the 2nd Amendment must be fought for.
Morgan, a Taekwondo black belt, is featured on Gun For Hire's huge "SAW" advertisement photo in the hallway of the Woodland Park Range. Donna & Morgan recently took the Pen & Knife class there. The family has been the guest of CNJFO Vice President Dave "Rosey" Rosenthal a few times over the years at Old Bridge R&P Club.
3 1/2" Nickel Model 27 N-frame .357 mag w/ full-house rounds. First time shooting it! A bit of a flinch (I know) so when I get to shoot with her again we'll work on it together!
Hope yuse guys enjoy the story & video!
