There is no legal was to get around paying taxes due on items you purchase. NJ like most states has "Use Tax", that means you are obligated under NJ tax code to declare and pay the tax due on all the items you purchased out of state, like in DE or NH where there is no sales tax, or if you buy online and didn't pay tax, or even if you buy in PA where the tax is 6% you are to pay the remaining 1% (you get credit for any out of state taxes paid). When you file your NJ tax return you are swearing that you have paid all applicable taxes you owe. Obviously this is not normally enforced on individuals, but the state has gone after professionals (doctors, lawyers, etc.) who haven't paid use tax because it was easy to see they weren't paying it. They don't collect sales tax on their services and weren't paying anything to the state, an audit would almost certainly find some computers or other equipment they ordered online and didn't pay use tax on. I wouldn't worry about it to much, but I also wouldn't advocate anyone admitting to it on a public forum either.

This is getting less and less all the time.

I think what you need to consider is that the entire acquisition process would be occurring out of state, and legally, where NJ law does not apply. By the time you are crossing the border you are simply in possession of HG ammo, and I don't see anywhere in that statute that it says you need an FID to possess HG ammo. We've had this same discussion with regards to NJ residents acquiring air, BP and antique guns before, and although others disagree with me, I don't see a difference between acquiring any of the above mentioned items and buying (real) handguns as a resident of another state and moving here with them (which we all agree is legal). The key thing is that the acquisition occurred legally. That all being said, since this is NJ, I wouldn't put it past some prosecutor to try to screw someone over.

If you buy a crossbow you won't need to practice, since the are accurate once dialed in (just like a rifle). If using a bow, you will need to get your drawing arm in shape an do a lot of practicing. I've shot my share of deer with compound bows but didn't think twice about getting a crossbow when they made them legal.

I've seen them at not so cheap NJ shops for $475ish. Bud's has them for $370 with free shipping.

Do you know what they were getting for the PAPs?

For bow season you will need light weight camo clothing and maybe some mid weight for later in the season. For the gun seasons sometimes you can't have enough layers. Orange is only needed when gun hunting (or carrying deer decoys during bow), a solid orange hat OR 200 sq inches is required. As others have said, if hunting public land, you'll want to have A LOT of orange on.

I'm in a small hunting club in Blairstown (deer zone 5)and we are looking for two more members. We hunt deer and turkey primarily, land owner is really cool. Send me a PM and I can fill you in on the details and cost.

Stabil is good stuff, only problem is it does not help counteract the ethanol they are adding to the gas nowadays (although Stabil has a new product that is supposed to help). Ethanol is the worst thing they have done to fuel yet, it swells rubber and other seals in the carburetor causing all kinds of problems. It also shortens the shelf life gas even more. The best thing I have found is Sea Foam. I run it in all my two cycle engines because it prevents carbon build up, which is a bigger problem in todays tighter tolerance pollution controlled engines. It also stabilizes fuel for long term storage and helps counteract the ill effects of ethanol. It works in any gas or diesel engine.

If your trying to remove ground water away from your foundation walls, gravity is your best friend - it doesn't stop working when the power goes out. Your gutter leaders, (which should always be run away from your house to minimize adding to ground water near your foundation) are surface water, and will run off even if not below the grade of your basement floor. Two different problems, with two different solutions.

What sucks about that, is that it probably crushed your Arborvitae, and now you'll have a hole in your hedge to look at your neighbors.

As other have said, first check the grading of the soil/paved surfaces around your foundation and make sure they are pitched away. Then seal all cracks in your foundation with Fastplug or equivalent. Waterproofing the walls inside and out is always a good idea. If all these don't solve your problems, you may need to put drainage on the outside walls of you foundation. This is expensive and disruptive because you will need to rip out anything that is in the way (shrubs, patios, stairs, etc.), this drainage system would be then run out away from the house to a point on your property that is lower than your basement floor or tied into your sump pump if not possible.

I don't know when the Pequannock is supposed to crest above Butler but I would imagine things have gotten worse since I was there. I went down Greenpond to get out of the area and that was passable but sketchy, trees laying on power lines and water over the road in spots. Route 80 had 6 inches of water on it in both directions between exits 37 and 39, road was open but slow through overwash.

I wonder how many pike and tiger muskies are washing though that parking lot.

Went up 23 north from 287 at around noon and the road was open at that time, but all the lights from Echo lake rd and north into Oak Ridge were out. The water near the new Ramsey car lot was about 1 1/2 feet below the road at that time. Southbound there was water over the road by the Shell station (just past Greenpond rd) but cars were still getting through. When I got to the water treatment plant I noticed cars were reversing back and turning around driving the wrong way to the U turn in the middle, I think a tree may have come down since it was open on my way up and there were no officials there directing traffic.

I've bought long guns in NY as a NJ resident (from FFL's). As far as I know, there is no restriction on any non AW long guns in the upstate of NY.

x 3 I don't like the idea of volunteering my personal info to a company that then owns whatever you post there. As Pizza Bob said, this is as far as I'm going with social networking.

I remember those, what a pain in the a**, the oil would leak out where the spout went into the can and make a mess. About the same vintage as juice in large metal cans, soda in large glass bottles, and milk in one gallon cardboard cartons.

Where was this guy shooting? in a landfill? Holy slobs!

I felt it at my office in Oak Ridge, as others said it felt like I was suddenly in a boat, at first I thought I was just imagining I was swaying but then it stopped. Within minuets the phone was ringing with people we know asking if we felt it. First time I ever felt an earthquake.

I remember those same games as a kid in NJ. I would agree with mipafox, if they are considered illegal, it would be because they would be construed as machine guns. It's possible that federal law is overriding NJ law - but I'm just speculating.

I would tell you to buy a .308, your getting a bolt action - so your not going to go through cases of ammo. Also, if your looking for accuracy, match grade is easier to come by in .308 than 7.62 x 39.

I know a guy who was hunting and left a Remington 1187 in the back of his pick up and forgot to close the tailgate. It was long gone by the time he figured out it was missing.

The Oaks show has gotten a lot better since Eagle took over. The winter and spring shows were packed, all shows slow down some in summer.

Just about any place is cheaper than Ramsey's
