check before you ever put a handgun on consignment at a NJ gun store!
I'm not questioning the validity of what your saying, I'm aware of the repair book vs the transfer book and that this has been in effect for some time, and that it comes from the ATF. The point I was making is that the FFL has not compensated you for it until it's sold (unlike when you sell it to them outright), and you control the selling price, and the dealer does not collect sales tax on it because he is merely brokering the deal. This, in the real world, makes it still your property not the dealers, even if the ATF by definition says it's not. As you said, sucks and stupid

If you want a comfortable gun, try putting a Sig in your hands. And welcome to the forum.

Locked Box in Locked Trunk
First off, I do respect the police, so before anyone starts to think otherwise..... My Leo friend would not make this up, he's not that kind of person. The way I understand it, the firearm question was asked in fairly quick succesion after the usual license ,reg and ins. He told me the story because he thought it was completly out of order for him to be asked the question in the manner that it was. As far as if I was asked that question, and I had firearms in the vehicle, I would respectfully decline to answer the question, I know better than to lie to the police. My concern would be in getting a cop that doesn't comprehend the myriad of confusing and conflicting firearms laws we have in this state AND doesn't try to get clarification on them before charging me with something that may not even be illegal. You know as well as I do that if it were to go to that level, it's going to cost me a lot of money and time (more money) to straighten the mess out. And the government is not going to reemburse me for that. Even worse is cases where no one wants to admit they made a mistake (because they will get sued) and they continue with a prosecution because they want to cover their a**. Good professional cops won't do this, but there are bad apples in every lot, this is NJ, why would I want to take that chance?

I understand your point, however, unfortunately, not all cops are as respectful about peoples rights as you are. I have a number LEO friends and they are all of the same mindset as you, but I have run into a few that don't share your professionalism. A LEO friend of mine got stopped one time (he was unarmed at the time) and one of the first things out of this cops mouth, and before he could identify himself, was "are there any firearms in the vehicle". My friend assures me there was absolutely no cause for him to ask this question, he was just fishing. I can only imagine what would have happened to a non LEO if they answered "yes", even if they were within the legal transport laws.

This is just more NJ BS, and to some extent ATF BS. While it is a legal transfer, so is when you drop off a firearm for cleaning or repair, either way you still own it (until it's sold under consignment). You don't need a PP to pick up YOUR repaired handgun.

Why should anyone consent to a search of their vehicle? Nothing good will EVER come out of it for the person being searched. Exercising your rights should never make you look guilty.

DSM no start help.. (Automotive)
First thing is to get a new terminal connector, then check all the other connections, such as the ground wire to the frame. These will definitely cause problems if they are loose or corroded, if that doesn't take care of it, then look at replacing the battery, especially if it's old.

Legality of apartment buildings putting a no firearms clause in your lease?
Sure, a landlord can have no firearms clause, but weather it's enforceable is another question. I am a contractor, and have had companies make me sign lien wavers (which prohibit me from putting mechanics liens on their property for non payment) as part of their contract. Lien wavers in NJ and DE are not enforceable, they are in PA and are standard practice over there. What this means is that, as a contractor I could still file a mechanics lien against them for non payment, no matter what the contract says. Just because it's written in a contract doesn't mean it's legal.

Legality of apartment buildings putting a no firearms clause in your lease?
There are major differences between what a business can do to restrict certain activities and what a landlord can do to restrict certain activities. A business can ask anyone to leave for almost any reason since it is their property and any individual doesn't have a right to be there. When a property is leased to someone, they are taking possession of it, and it is now under their control. NJ has very strong tenant rights, there are only a few, very limited reasons that a person can be evicted from a residential home. I would be surprised if owning a firearm was one of them.

Google Maps from China to New Jersey...
I wonder why they would want you to kayak to Seattle from Hawaii, wouldn't LA or San Diego be closer? I think my arms might get tired going the extra distance.

Legality of apartment buildings putting a no firearms clause in your lease?
Something else to digest: A landlord is not allowed to exclude people because of race, gender, or sexual orientation. Excluding people based on firearms ownership COULD be considered discriminatory. I know some public housing authorities were sued over this and the gun owners prevailed (or the authorities give in - don't remember which).

Magazine Capacity
If the mag fits into any semi auto and has a capacity in excess of 15 rounds, it is illegal

First gun you would buy... if you lived in a free state?
FULL AUTO Probably a Thompson since they are a good inexpensive entry MG
-
transport question
Well said, Also, there is no requirement the ammo needs to be stored separate from the firearm, only that the firearm is unloaded. Dealers are required to deliver a firearm to you unloaded, wrapped or cased separate from the ammo - which is probably where this myth comes from.

FID and DL address match: question
I'm aware that most dealers will not do a sale if the IDs don't match, but what is the ramifications for them? Will it jeopardize their license? (assuming the DL has the current address)
-
FID and DL address match: question
I'm still not seeing where it says that they must match to make a purchase. It says you must apply within 30 days of a change of address. Also keep in mind that Title 13 are "rules" not laws, what is the punishment for not complying with this rule?

Out of state vehicle title transfer
I bought a new truck in Ohio back in 2000, the dealer didn't have the means to register it for me here in NJ so he gave me the title (which I was surprised by since I financed the truck) and I registered it here myself - after paying the sales tax in NJ. I don't remember if the title was notarized or not, but I was not a problem at all to register it here. I have also since then bought several new trucks in NY and registered them the same way, again I don't remember if the titles were notarized.
-
FID and DL address match: question
I would also like to see where this is coming from. I've always heard the same thing until recently, when an FFL told me that they are to advise you to get them to match but it is not an actual rule. :unknw:

If they had original scopes you could add at least another 0 to the end of that price.

"Assault Weapon" Clarification, Please
A semi-automatic firearm should be considered to be "substantially identical," that is, identical in all material respects, to a named assault weapon if it meets the below listed criteria: Again this is in Title 13 - the administrative code - not 2C or 2A which is actual law. To state it simply, that evil features game is a former AG's interpretation of the law, ultimately it is up to a judge or jury to decide what the law is, not the AG or the cops.

"Assault Weapon" Clarification, Please
i. A semi-automatic rifle that has the ability to accept a detachable magazine and has at least two of the following: (1) A folding or telescoping stock; (2) A pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon; (3) A bayonet mount; (4) A flash suppressor or threaded barrel designed to accommodate a flash suppressor; and (5) A grenade launcher; There has been some debate on this forum as to whether or not this applies to all semi auto rifles or only clones of the ones named on the list, since this is not written into the law (2C), but rather it's in the administrative code (title 13). It would probably be safest to use this as a standard on any rifle until (if ever)a judge makes a determination.
