Yup, not that we have th ability here in the PRNJ..Tasers are still Illegal. That said, it's GOT to be the most effective less-lethal tool developed in decades. Problem is the departments that mandate it be used FIRST before going hands-on at all. Those are the policies that really bring things onto a bad light. As far as the VERY few deaths, So fat every single one has had some major health issue there ws NO WAY for the police to know about, or under the influence of cocaine or some other narcotic. Of the thousands of cops who have taken Taser hits, some of them a few dozen times in demonstrations, NOBODY on the blue side has ever doed or even gotten injured other than the occasional pulled muscle or Bruise/Scrape when someone dropped the ball (and the officer)

They geve a VERY small window in which you could Register your "Assault Weapon" once that window was closed however no more were permitted to be Registered. Any AR-type after that point (Or AK, or M-1A, Ect.) had to be NJ-compliant.

Mak wqay back in the rookie days I was literally 75 FEET from a bank robbery in progress..the robbers must've pretty much walked PAST me. The bank (Now defunct) had a policy that there were NO silent Alrams, and after the robber left the doors were locked for 10 minutes before any customers were left or the manager called the PD. They ended up getting sued by a customer for the locking in part, but that was after the President of the bank made a public statement to the papers about their bank's policy...I think they had about 30 more robberies of assorted branches in less than a month after that, and ended up getting bought out. Personally I like Britain's way of doing it. Teller pushes a button and a HUGE armored door rolls down across the windows, and the door is electronically locked BG is trapped till the PC's show up. Of course they're rethinking that now since Amazingly they are starting to have REAL gun problems now after the total ban.

F_U AROCK oops..sowwy, reflex :mrgreen:

Nope it's nott hat, it just Doesnt REGISTER as a "Police Car" if it's not a CVPI, people dont even notice it, it's pretty funny actually to see their faces.

That's pretty much the Policy in EVERY bank, as well as m,ost retail places. If there's a robbery, coooperate get the BG out as quickly as possible and dont do anything to get a customer hurt. It's not the Scum-Bag bank, it's the Scum-bag LAWYERS that force the insurance companies to insist on language like this in the employee regulations. It's cheaper to just pay off for the loss, than pay out Millions and Millions of dollars for Lawsuits of victims because an employee resisted. Might not be RIGHT..but it is, what it is.

NO SBR period Not allowed and specifically prohibited by statute. AOW's are another story, and in this state, frankly probably not worth the grief. % more years till retirement, and then i can own all of the NFA goodies I can afford, once im out of Here.

I'm not really a big stickler for "You dont ever pass the Cop. HOWEVER, when you blow by my marked Durango (When IM doing 5 Miles over) you WILL get pulled, or if you pass me on the right. Funny thing is our Durangos are marked the same as the Crown Vica, and people routinely dont even notice them, and do REALLY stupid crap that force us to take notice.

SCOTUS has Avoided the issue altogether since Miller V US. Personally the only reason i think they entertained Heller, was because it WOULDNT incorporate, since DC is a unique situation. Eventually someone, Hopefully Alan Gura will force their hand, but it has to be done the right way.

Cabela's out in Hamburg is pretty well stocked up for everyithing..EXCEPT .22 LR they had almost none in stock last tuesday, and no bulk packs at all.

You know there will be an uproar. Too bad it'll be about her handling an illegal gun, since it won't be hers. Ayup the County Prosecutor will be going after the Husband for Improper Transfer of a firearm or "Lending" a Firearm or some other stupidity...not to mention charging the vic for Agg Assault.

I never heard of disclosing who lives with you. Where on the application do you provide this info? Some towns have their own "Information Sheet" that's MUCh more intrusive than what the state requires.

Much like the .50 cal ban which was SUPPOSED to be specific to BMG and other cartridge firearms, but exmepting BP and non-fixed ammunition..until it went to the Assembly, in it's original, Complete ban on anything .50 or over form.

There was a bill proposed a year or two ago that would make it unlawful for anyone other than a "Licensed Gunsmith' to alter any part of a firearm that might change it's "Ballistic Fingerprint". Since NJSP did not then, and still does not have a "Ballistic Fingerprint Unit" the Bill died in Committee IIRC.

Clan MacGregor, Yes, the other one, Nope, sorry, unless you buy into the theory that the Scots were that lost tribe of Israel.

For those who prayed for him, Marc Dinardo's family is planning on taking him off of life support tomorrow morning so his organs can be donated. Rest In Peace Brother.

Actually Rich, he DID in fact say "Machine Gun" But that said you're right Nj doens tallow for SBR at all.

I know I defended Comey to a certain degree before, but I can't anymore. Tommy's allowed Healy to turn this into a political issue, with his participation, while Mark DiNardo is still in a coma, and might not make it. Talking to a buddy of mine from JCPD it seems that all of this political posturing is more to CYA for Comey and Healy than anything else. I cant go into specifics, but there was NO EFFING Reason this should have gone down the way it did, and now we have 7 guys injured with another that still may die...all over money. Despite all of the other crap please extend your thoughts and prayers tor Mark and his Family, He's one of the GOOD guys.

2 Sh!ttums that they were looking at for a shooting last week along with a string of armed Robberies. Sh!ttum A saw a radio car driving by and got spooked taking a shot with a concealed shotgun at the Car, the guys on surveillance called for the Cavalry (ESU) and then they chased these two into an apt building, where they were eventually killed, but not before 4 more cops were shot and another 3 were injured by other means. No doubt before the day is out we'll have at LEAST one "Ma Baby dint do Nuffin" quote for the news.

Of COURSE Evan's book says this...HE WAS the pereminent Firearms Lawyer in NJ There are still advantages to having the C&R, mainly the discounts you get from Brownelles and Midway, on the downside any firearms still have to go through an 10 FFL, and handfuns still need to be permitted..the other downside, is that if you owned any firearms that qualified as a C&R Before you got your license, Thhose still have to be entered into your Bound book, just as if you had purchased them under the c&r

Sure they are, but compared to the rest of the business base the FFL's in the state are a tiny minority..besides dont you think the Legislature would LOVE to see them all close?

If this DOES look like it's going to pass, i'm buying all of the Federal stock i can, their EFMJ wuill have Booming sales LOL

Well said and insightful. Everything so far is preliminary, but the way I see it, there is NOTHING that CAN'T be done (I know, double negative). I'm going to take a friend out for drinks and introduce him to the idea of working on this with me pro bono, although he is in criminal law. I was just listening to Sotomayor's confimration hearing, in particular her record on the 2nd Amendment. She does a lot of double talk and covers her a** well. Spoken like a true politician/lawyer. Anyway, references to SC's reversal of DC's handgun ban has given me inspiration and motivation. It doesnt matter what she says NOW..her position as already stated was that the 2nd Ammendment was not an individual right and only appllied to the National guard. Not that anyone really thought there would be anything more than parroting whatever answers she needed to give to get through conformation...

Actually you CAN have a handgun...Cap-and-ball only, which is how thay do CAS matches on the other side i Believe. IIRC you can still own modern handguns, but doesnt it have to be secured at the shooting club, and you cannot possess any ammunition??? Check the gun out, buy the ammo, shoot it all, turn in the brass, check the gun back in?? or has that changed?

It all comes down to the whole "Incorporation" issue as with Heller, the 2nd hasnt actually BEEN incorporated as far as the states are Concerned. It's striking out into virgin territory, although as long as you kept it clear of NFA stuff as Gura did in Heller, you MIGHT get SCOTUS to hear it. You'd need a whole Boatload of money, or a REALLY good attorney who's willing to take it Pro Bono, which would be tough because you;re talking hundreds of hours of work on that issue. If i Hit Mega Millions, i'll do it...before i still get the hell out of this place LOL. One of the biggest stumbling blocks is that going right back to the original, the NJ state Constitution NEVER HAD it's own version of the 2nd ammendment. Perhaps our founders here thought that the issue was so simple it didn't need to be put on paper, considering that the confiscation was one of the seminal reasons for the Revolution in the first place. Unfortunately they weren't far-sighted enough to see what politicians here would become.
