Range question as it pertains to NJ Laws (sharing your guns?)

If you think you get screwed trading in guns, don't ever try to trade in a diamond. A jeweler once told me diamonds are forever because once you hear their trade in price you'll never sell them.- When did FID's and PPP's take effect?

You should have ran out in the parking lot and offered him $220.- If obama wins 2nd term, what would you do?
- A fine line - What happens when?............
My wife is basically anti-gun but when she saw my pistol she said it looked just like one that her son had when was a kid. The police cannot tell the difference between toy and real. The toys look just like real guns. The police will have to assume they are all real and protect themselves accordingly. My wife thought the police cannot be faulted for shooting a kid with a toy gun when they are so authentic looking.- Mark III vs. Ruger 22/45 vs. M&P.22 vs. GSG-1911
The Ruger Mark III points real low for me. It does have a Glock like angle. The Browning Buckmark is very nice. Points natural for me. Very solid and substantial. The 1911 styles didn't appeal to me. The M&P22 is a hammered gun although it looks like it's striker fired. The P22 and probably the new Ruger 22 are very small guns.- Ammo Questions
- An example of our ludicrous laws
Different juries will have different answers. Therefore, there is no right answer. The jury will decide what is reasonable if the trial goes to jury. There was someone, a writer or lawyer that put forth the proposition than emergency room visit was unreasonable. I don't buy it. To me, gas and drive through Wendy's are fine. A flat tire is of course fine. Emergency car repair: car repair guy has to go in your trunk to get the spare tire... Sometimes life happens.- Tennessee woman arrested at WTC Memorial
You are right but it's hard to justify a law where something perfectly legal in PA could land you in prison for years in NJ or NY. Just doesn't make logical sense that something could be so bad in one state and yet perfectly legal in another.- Former Marine gets jammed up in NYC carrying firearm !!
2A is a federal right. The federal government cannot infringe. States however.... Up until about 1947 the first amendment was basically federal only. Then in 1947 SCOTUS said it applied to states, too. That Chicago verdict from a year or two ago said that 2A also applied to states but, I believe, that states can have reasonable infringements. It's all the interpretation of the Constitution. Remember, we are the United States of America. We are a country of 50 states and 235 years ago the states wanted a weak central government and strong state power. We can't pick and choose when we want a strong Federal gov't and when we want strong state gov't. It's a package deal.- One Gun A Month

- Probably gonna be put on walking post for sticking up for fellow gun enthusiast..
Agreed. My point is that simply declining a request for a search does not (should not) establish PC. I should have worded it as you can't establish PC after the search.- Probably gonna be put on walking post for sticking up for fellow gun enthusiast..
I think that is just tin hat rhetoric. You can't establish PC after the request. The police need PC before the request. That said, just respectfully and politely decline.- I'm writing tickets. What to expect?
If I have seen what you've seen I'd probably be behind you 100% but it's just all these nanny laws that I hate. I want the police to use their resources to protect me from criminals that might mean to do me or my family harm. Stupid people are going to do stupid stuff. Keep up the good work.- Probably gonna be put on walking post for sticking up for fellow gun enthusiast..
A cop asking to see your papers is not violating anyone's rights. It's only if the cop demands to see your papers that your rights are violated. It's just that we are drilled to conform and comply with an officer's requests in the belief that they wouldn't ask us if it wasn't legal. The savvy criminals know their rights and aren't afraid to stand up to cop's request. The honest people not so much.- Correct M&P9 sight picture?
Well, I'm no expert by any means. My M&P45 seems to be a sight image 3. My M&P9 shoots high with that sight picture so I aim it using a sight image between 1 and 2 and seem to to do a lot better that way.- A little offended by what I heard on the Radio
Good point! Quick poll: Which do you own more of: guns or shoes? Me: shoes.- Have a newb question to ask about ID's and permits
I've only seen one shop that won't let you handle without FID and four shops that would. Strange that there is such a difference about this.- People moving out of NJ
