  1. tommy3rd replied to TJM's topic in Handguns
    you'll probably end up owning both, so just buy both of them at the same time.
  2. scroll down to the bottom of the post i copy and pasted...
  3. Just because it's allowed, it doesn't mean it's a good idea...but hey, to each his own i guess.
  4. from this site: A semi-automatic shotgun that has at least two of the following: This means that if it is a semi-automatic shotgun and has a detachable magazine it can have ONE of the following features and still be legal, but if it has two or more, then it would not be legal. (1) A folding or telescoping stock; (2) A pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon; **note(having a pistol grip on a semi auto shotgun makes the gun automatically illegal even if NO other evil features are present..)** (3) A fixed magazine capacity in excess of six rounds; (4) An ability to accept a detachable magazine; OR A semi-automatic shotgun with either a magazine capacity exceeding six rounds, a folding stock or a pistol grip; Example 1) A Saiga 12 (which is a semi automatic shotgun ). LEGAL 2) A Saiga 12 (which is a semi automatic shotgun ) with a pistol grip. ILLEGAL Since "pistol grip" is a term NJ uses to describe a feature, it is important to know what NJ deems a pistol grip. Take notice that it does not say fired comfortably with one hand.. it simply says fired.. "Pistol grip" means a well defined handle, similar to that found on a handgun, that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon, and which permits the firearm to be held and fired with one hand. OTHER FIREARM LEGALITIES/QUALIFICATIONS It is also important to observe the minimum length a firearm can be. Rifle Overall Length 26in or more Barrel Length 16in or more Shotgun Overall Length 26in or more Barrel Length 18in or more
  5. you live in northern NJ (passaic/morris/bergen/sussex area), you want a 200/300 yd range. what are your options up here without having to drive more than an hour?
  6. there are a few resident sig-aholics here that may be able to answer your question. One thing I do know is the single stack (239) vs double stack (226,8,9) thing will be an issue.
  7. I'm sure you meet every other requirements in the statutes, however, You just have to find a "justifable need" as stated in the statutes...and NO, "self-defense" is not justifiable. "I fear for my life" is also not valid, unless there's a specific threat against you. Even then, it might not be good enough depending on which judge hears the case and what he considers justifiable.It's easier for you to move to another state and hope HR822 passes to be able to carry here in New Jersey. Better yet, try to become a police officer in this state or any other state. you'll have free reign in the whole country.
  8. gotta love the "could be considered a replica weapon". say what????
  9. it looks like the glock trigger safety, if you can call it that. lol
  10. looks almost like a cross between a glock and a px4
  11. i don't reload but asked them anyway about collecting your own brass. they basically said it's fine, as long as you tell them in advance that you will be collecting your brass. they really are very user friendly, specially if you have experience and seem to know what you're doing.
  12. try this trick...wet your hand, soap it, rub your soapy hand all over the lens, and wipe it off (don't rinse). see if it still fogs up. if it works, i can explain the chemistry behind it. lol
  13. Ray, posting the same guns X times doesn't mean you get to multiply it by that many times. slow year for me. only added 1 rifle and 3 handguns...waiting for permits for the 4th.
  14. members get priority, but only for the first hour. if there are people waiting, after the first hour you move back and wait or another port to open. If there's no one waiting, shoot until you run out of ammo.
  15. Start shopping for a new car. Too many things back there that might need replacement. My guess would be $5k and total loss.
  16. i think you just met the justifiable need portion of an NJ Carry permit. All you need now is to get the principal to write that letter.
  17. While carrying a firearm! http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/arizona-gun-club-lets-children-hold-high-powered-173027276.html
  18. is there a long gun registration in PA? what's preventing this person from saying " my grandpa gave these long guns to me" and takes it staight home to NJ? I thought legally acquired long guns from out of state that are legal to possess in NJ can be brought here without having to register it.
  19. where in jersey city will you be coming from? near union city/secaucus/c heights, downtown, or near bayonne/greenville section. RTSP is about 50 mins from you, depending on where you're coming from.
  20. Went to RTSP for a couple hours on Friday, and spent 3 hours in Cherry Ridge on Saturday. I need to stock up on ammo again since I used about 800 rounds between those 2 days.
  21. My vote is also for RTSP. I was just there, and there is no comparison to Bullet Hole or Bayonne. It's a farther trip for me but it is worth it. Very user/member friendly. It's also spacious, clean and the staff is great.
  22. SCOTUS does not define our rights. WE THE PEOPLE define our rights through voting lawmakers in office. My knowledge of the Constitution/Bill of rights is not great, but I do know "We the People" is the first line. I believe Article 1 Section 1 gives Congress legislative powers.
  23. Learning the golden rules is one thing, but I think mandating it infringes on our rights. Just like driving, owning a gun comes with responsibilities. It should be up to the individual, and not the government to make sure one learns the golden rules. Do I want everyone carrying a gun to be safe and and responsible? absolutely! However, it is not up to me or the government to force a person to be responsible. What I want the government to do is to protect me IF the person does something irresponsible, not mandate laws to force some people to pretend to be responsible. The same irresponsible folks will just take the "required" CCW class and still be irresponsible after the class. So in the end, all you accomplish is forcing responsible gun owners to take a class on what they already learned (from other responsible owners!)
  24. i'm actually curious to find out if cherry ridge is a madhouse on black fridays. I plan to go up there tomorrow morning.
  25. what happens to folks with multiple houses in different states? are they required to choose a "main" address?
