Thank you. We're at $973, 6% of goal. Slow and steady...

All, Within the first 24 hours of launching Operation Establish Compliance, we have received approximately $750 in donations (the meter on our website updates every 24hrs in the morning). We have achieved 5% of our goal in one day, which is incredible. Thank you to all who have donated so far. Please continue to spread the word. We have a long way to go, but we can see that this is absolutely achievable. Thanks again for your support and we'll continue to keep you updated.

Confirmed and concur. Thanks for your help Bob!

This article has been in the top 5 for the BellevillePatch website since it was written last week. Some good comments too.

Does "capable of" refer only to the number of rounds or both the number of rounds and to be fed... into a semi-auto? To me, it's not clear. But, like I said, I wouldn't want to be the test case.

Interesting point. Like most NJ gun laws, it's not clear. I don't know if there's any case law for that. Wouldn't want to be the test case though.

Here's the Manalapan blanket release of information form. ManalapanPD-Handgun-App11.pdf I'm emailing you Glassboro. The file is too big to post.

Negative. Here's the statute: If it's for a bolt action gun, the mag limit does not apply.

Can anyone recommend an outfitter?

Side note: FL CCW applications are provided by Anthony. However, you can have your prints, photos and notary done for any CCW application if you bring the application with you (i.e. AZ, VA, etc.).

Heller guarantees a right to carry arms in case of confrontation. Heller is not limited to "in the home." "Justifiable Need" is an impermissible standard. The question is not about concealed carry or open carry, because NJ doesn't allow either - one or the other or both must be permitted. Defendant's arguments are gibberish. Amici Brady's arguments were likely written by a first year law student (no offense to first year law students). It's reads like watching a Manny Pacquiao fight.

Thanks Ken. We're doin' our best.

Paul Milo, editor of the Belleville Patch attended and wrote an article about Wednesday's NJ2AS meeting at Gun For Hire. I found the story to be largely accurate with no opinion one way or the other from the author. Please post a comment under the article if you can. Don't compliment the journalist. That's a "no-no." It's okay to comment that he was fair, reported the truth, etc. but no 'ata boys'. Otherwise he will feel compelled to go in the other direction in future articles. Positive, courteous discussion on his site, however, would be very helpful to our cause as I got the impression when we talked that he was sincerely trying to understand our side of the debate and exactly who we are. ...and, I had no idea I would be quoted. I was quite surprised. http://belleville.patch.com/articles/second-amendment-advocates-say-jersey-gun-laws-have-to-change

I believe there is a pretty drastic error, as it only limits "fixed" magazines and not all magazines. 2C:39-1y remains unchanged. That's either a mistake, or they don't want their bill to be taken seriously. 2C:39-1w(4) would outlaw any semi-auto with a fixed mag over 10 rounds. Goodbye Marlin model 60 et al. There is no provision for disposing of firearms and magazines already in possession, so you're a felon no matter what you do. And, of course, no distinction between criminals and the law-abiding.

Gerald Ung was found not guilty for the shooting of Eddie DiDonato. The jury agreed that Ung acted in self defense. However, it's not the end of Ung's problems. He faces a possible civil suit and massive legal bills. There's a lot of lessons in this one. http://abovethelaw.c...ing/#more-58621 http://www.philly.co.../116258729.html http://www.philly.co...y_shooting.html Video is here: http://www.snowflakesinhell.com/2011/02/11/ung-video-dissected/

Caine, thanks for posting the link again. Don't know what happened. I fixed it in the OP also. Looking forward to seeing you guys.

When you do bring in your firearms (the ones that you have verified are NJ compliant) keep them unloaded and locked in the trunk while traveling to your new residence in NJ. Don't make any stops in NJ. Schedule your travel so you can go straingt to your new residence. Don't stop at a hotel for the night. Don't stop at Grandma's or Aunt Betty's. ...and verify everything that we have said with an attorney. Evan Nappan is the one most commonly referenced. BTW, all of this assumes that you are not disqualified under 2C:39-7 to possess firearms in NJ (criminal history, history of mental illness).

Must be approved by your Police Chief and a Superior Court Judge in your county.

The S&W Model 41 is a great .22 pistol. The Model 46 is a rare version of the 41. It was made for police and military competition pistol teams. My understanding is that less than 5000 were made and less than 500 were made with a 5" heavy barrel. They are very accurate and very reliable. There's one on GB right now and the seller is in NJ, so you can avoid the shipping. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=214645037 Plus, if you ever decide to compete, they can be modified into some pretty cool custom guns. http://www.clarkcustomguns.com/41swcnmn.htm
