my point exactly these stores that keep getting talked about it depends on who and what you ask about to get good advice. Just because a store specializes in selling only one thing, doesn't by default make the sales people good at their job.

Depends on the cop. I find a lot of cops all over don't really sweat the small stuff. It is a gamble on your part though as you could get the one that is a dick. I would just pour it into a thermos or something to make it not as obvious and carry on personally. If they have no reason to stop and talk to you in the first place then there won't be a problem.

here's the link to the marketplace, you can look through it and buy guns as a non-member, but if you want to post guns for sale you have to join up to make a thread. http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/forum/63-marketplace/

You should really get your friend to sign up as a premier membership and then post them for sale in our marketplace. It only costs 2 bucks a month, not bad for a classified advert I'd say and he would have a target audience. Things posted in the market place tend to sell very quickly. Out of curiosity what do you consider a small arsenal? I would say 30 to 40 guns would be a small one myself, but I know people that think 4 guns is a small "arsenal."

I read a few comments and one guy is arguing that making a firearms purchase should be done in a professional store and not a walmart, because it is a professional product. What? I'm not going to name names, but I think many on here have mention at least one or two stores here in NJ that are far from professional. Just another look into how people can take reason and logic and push it aside to support their preconceived ideals I guess.

+1 now, what's he got?

the FPID is a severe limitation on the 2nd Amendment.

well not sure who your source was but he has his facts a little off. While you could buy crack outside the store on the corner no problem, the store was an actual liquor store.

I take my oath to uphold and defend the Constitution seriously and I will fight on any battlefield to do it even if that battlefield happens to be a courtroom. I am already disgusted with myself that I have not gone out shooting once since I have been here, simply for the fear of not having my FPID. Sure I don't need it to go shoot my lawfully acquired guns from Colorado, but what happens if I get that one cop that doesn't know the law, then that one judge that doesn't like guns. I am not a citizen at this time (this will be rectified this Friday at my interview for citizenship), if I had a gun charge I could be deported from this country I love so much. Thankfully I will not have to live with that fear for much longer. I refuse to tip toe around, walk on egg shells when it comes to or flat out live in fear of these terrible laws that make law abiding citizens into criminals.

welcome fellow essex county prisoner!

I do plan on making the gun issue a soft sell. I am not interested in debating with anyone at all. Either they are interested or they are not. I do like the idea of making the flier self explanatory so I can just leave them on door steps as well.

I do not plan on giving out my address, telephone or email to anyone. The only way they will be able to contact me is through an email account that I will set up specifically for this. If someone does follow me home and decides to make me a target they will have to get past my pit bull, my neighbor that uses my garage to store stuff that is here randomly through out the day, a fellow firefighter of my fiancees that also uses my garage that is also here randomly through out the day, the fire department as members are here all the time to help with repairs and what not, a pretty decent police response time (go figure if you are on the fire dept and have cop friends they make a note to get to your house faster, but still take over 5 months for a FPID, that's another rant though), a security system, and other precautions I take to prevent burglary that I will not discuss on a public forum.

shut up ray ray, you know no one cares about your opinion.

exactly

"Directly to or from any target range or other authorized place for the purpose of practice, match, target, trap or skeet shooting exhibitions:" I called the State Police and they said I could shoot there, that is authorized enough for me. Ray once I get a feel for the land and see if it is worth shooting at I'd think some Zombie Resistance training would be in order

yeah. I was thinking I would only offer help in buying a firearm. I would not list stores. I plan on setting up an e-mail that is just for this and people could e-mail me questions like "Where is the best place to buy a gun?" and I can address the issue of obtaining a firearm then.

put me in for one

hahahaha nice I can sell the rest of Tony's for him!

I haven't scoped the property yet buy my father in-law says there is a place to shoot that he found. He's an old vet and familiar with guns, so I trust him.

talked to Sussex county sheriffs dept. they kicked me up to state police and they said it was fine as long as I had a proper backstop and there weren't any township ordinances which there are not. Wohoo I think I will shoot this weekend

I would have no idea why. I was skeptical when she said it, but then I just thought "well I am in New Jersey and nothing here makes sense"

My inlaws have about 10 acres and we were thinking of going and shooting on it. I called up the town and looked on their website and couldn't find anything that said we couldn't. The nice lady I talked to said I should check out the NJ fish and wildlife dept. for laws about it. Was just wondering if any of you know the answer already or could point me in the right direction.

I am exempt from the permit if I have a vendors license which the state of NJ gives to veterans for free, so perhaps I will file the application for my vendors license.

I thought about that, but I feel having the forms on hand will make more of an impact. If someone has it already sitting on their coffee table they are more likely to fill it out. Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks for the heads up! I checked local ordinances and there is only a law that requires a permit if I am selling or making a profit. I do feel I need to give this a title for the top of the flier. Something like "Community Safety Project" Thank for the post!
