  1. If SCOTUS doesn't change the direction they are headed in, the are LIKELY to force some form of carry on NJ and the rest of the US, and probably in the next few years (and possibly as early as next year). The other thing to consider is even if relief from SCOTUS doesn't come, IF 822r (or something equivalent) becomes law, that will change everything. After 5 or so years of out of staters carrying and no serious incidents, I think you will see a change in attitude about CCW in NJ when people realize it's not the wild west, as they are predicting now.
  2. I've done exemptions numerous times and never had one denied. If you are going to buy guns for a collection, it's almost a guarantee you will be granted the exemption if you read how the law is worded.
  3. You can get lead from scrap dealers locally for around $1 a pound, they buy for around $.50 a pound. Check Craig's list as well, keeping in mind what the scrap places buy and sell for. Stay away from car battery lead.
  4. It weighs about 45 oz.
  5. You are a collector when you decide you want to start collecting - and that's about it. There is no standard that I'm aware of. If the HG's are out of state, have them sent to an FFL that will hold them for you. If they are instate, see if the seller will hold them for you until you get your approved exemption. Keep in mind you still need a permit for each gun and you will need the serial numbers before you file your exemption.
  6. FYI - the Ohio Turnpike (I-80) is a toll road, and the buck to cross the Delaware. I have a friend who may want to go - I can't, it's my busy season. I'll send you a PM.
  7. That's the troll that poses as Brain miller - he's a fraud.
  8. No, they were in Sterling (Long Hill Township) Morris county.
  9. You must actually have a second home in the other state, if you do you can buy, any gun legal there, with your NJ DL and a government issued bill (or the like) that has your name on it and is sent to your second residence (tax bill, government owned utility). Not all dealers are aware of this, and even some that are will not sell to you because they don't want to deal with explaining your residence situation to NICS.
  10. Yes, a new fishing reel or a BP pistol, it's all the same at Cabela's - cash and carry.
  11. I found a couple odd things there, -Some parts are being shipped from Europe, I thought gun parts were restricted for import/export, licenses needed and customs issues - maybe I'm wrong? -He's selling 50 round Thomson drums as well as some other 20 round mags, he's not an FFL and says you can pay cash on pick up.
  12. I think that would be a great reach, especially considering that nothing there is specifically designed to be held or minimize burning hands. Regardless, I know they are being sold and the NJSP doesn't seem to have a problem with it.
  13. As far as buying firearms the BATF does recgonize duel residency if you have actual residences in each state and stay at each location at least periodically. This will allow someone in that position to buy in both states.
  14. Dealers pay $5 for completed NICS in PA and in many (if not most) states there is no fee for NICS checks (such as NY). You can thank Christie Whitman for the $15 NJ fee.
  15. It would be nice if we could get cheap Russian milsurp again. You can only imagine what they have sitting in their armories. http://www.thefirear...sian-guns-ammo/
  16. I have the same gun, also with a Leopold scope, but with a camo stock.
  17. The Scorpion does not have a barrel shroud. There is a top cover that is removable, but the bottom of the area in front of the mag is the frame of the pistol. I can't imagine that even the most over zealous gun hating prosecutor could claim the frame is part of a barrel shroud.
  18. As a general rule (and especially in NJ) it is irresponsible to vote for Democrats.
  19. THIS^^^^^^^ If you are not staying in PA anymore, you cannot be a PA resident legally. The cops will tell you have X days (30? I can't remember) to change your license over from the day you move here, before you are in violation of the law. You also cannot get a FID card with a NJ address on it without getting a NJ DL. The only way you can be a duel resident is if you are staying regularly at both locations.
  20. Legally this is a gray area, it could be construed as an illegal transfer. Practically, you are not likely to have a problem unless something happens that brings the firearms to the attention of the police, but if it does, there may be serious consequences. The only way to be 100% sure you are in compliance is to leave them at her house. Buy some trigger or cable locks for them if you are worried about children getting their hands on them, or lock them in a closet. NJ's gun laws are beyond ridiculous. Most of the time nothing happens in these situations, but once in a while someone's life gets ruined over something that would not even be illegal in most other states.
  21. When I joined CR, they didn't use chamber flags. I too have been told that I could not put my flags in that way, maybe a little more politely, but their argument about why it needs to go in the chamber is stupid. If the gun cannot fire, the flag is doing it's job. In the 20 years I've been a member there, the only slackening of the rules I've seen is that you can load mags on the rifle range (yes, it was a one shot range in those days). The 147 year old fudds (as Dan puts it) used to yell at you if you shot more than three rounds an hour, telling you that you're going to ruin your barrel by heating it up to much, the sight of an AR would make them cringe. Yes, CR will have pits some day, probably in the year 2257 at the rate they are coming around to the latest trends in shooting.
  22. The semi auto Scorpion is NJ legal, I know some very careful (you could say skittish) FFL's that have sold them. The "semi auto version of a full auto" provision of the AWB doesn't seem to have any dealers I know of concerned about it being one of the "evil features".
