  1. I would call the mayor of your town and ask them why the chief would decide to implement this policy. What is the benefit of not renewing permits? It just causes people to apply more frequently, and the town is only getting paid $2 per permit to do the reinvestigation each time - no way does that cover the cost. Bottom line the chief is wasting your tax payer dollars.
  2. Wednesday nights on the Outdoor Channel is the best TV all week - Guns - All Guns
  3. In 2001 they weren't making people go through the entire background check every time someone applied for more permits if they had gotten permit or an FID card recently. That started around 2007 or 2008.
  4. To buy guns in PA (or any other state) as a dual resident you need to prove you have a residence in PA, cannot be just empty land. To do this, you need to present a government issued bill or other document with that address and your name on it. You will also need a government issued photo ID, your NJ DL will work fine for this. You can only buy guns in PA while you're actually residing in PA. Don't expect many PA FFL's to understand that this is legal or be willing to do it if they do, but a few will. Good luck!
  5. My mother tells me to shoot the little ones.........because they taste better. Of coarse by hunting season they've lost their spots. And as far as hunting in a free state vs. an oppressed state - NJ has some of the most liberal bag limits for deer. PA on the other hand is a one or two deer per season state, in most areas.
  6. Correct...... as long a Christie doesn't sign Sweeney's FPID revamp bill............ Go for the exemption, it's not hard to do and buying (in this case, transferring) from someone who inherited handguns is an excepted reason to seek and be granted an exemption. By the time you get your permits, you'll have the exemption as well.
  7. I shoot ammo from the 30's ,40's and 50's all the time, it's not a problem.
  8. Sub $400 WASR's are more than likely gone forever, they bottomed out before Newton around $400-$450. They may go down some from where are now, but everything is getting more expensive over the long term.
  9. This is because NJ law requires dealers to deliver firearms separately from the ammo to the customer, this "separate" requirement does not apply to gun owners transporting them after purchase. This may be where some of the confusion lies with some people thinking guns and ammo can't be in the same bag when transporting.
  10. If you want to wheel and deal you need to bring cash
  11. You could legally transport a handgun and ammo, within NJ to a legal destination, by putting both of them in a plastic shopping bag, tying the bag shut and throwing it on your back seat if you wanted to, gun must not be loaded. I personally wouldn't transport this way since I wouldn't want to draw any undue attention.
  12. You certainly have a novel idea, and I admire your ingenuity..............but it will never work. As other have pointed out, you'll never get enough people to move here to effect change on our behalf. Even if you could, the big problem is that there isn't likely to be enough staunch pro 2A challengers for this upcoming election to replace the douchebag Democrats we want out. So, that would mean you would need to have people vote in the primary as well as the general election, a minimum 7 month commitment. Even if we could vote them out, you're giving politicians too much credit, do you really think that they would move quickly on any of this? I agree people moving out of state is self defeating, but I can understand why people would want to, when I'm ready to retire I'll be looking for a more laid back lifestyle, where my NJ earned dollars will go farther.
  13. I used to buy compliant stuff in PA all the time, but since the federal AWB lapsed, PA has gone back to it's old ways. I do see compliant stuff from time to time, but if you find compliant AR's or AK's (and more so with AK's) they are usually guns that were traded in or bought in a collection rather than new purchased inventory. OP, If you go look around, you might find something, but don't expect a large selection, if you find anything at all.
  14. You're not likely to find many compliant AK type rifles at PA shows, they don't need to follow our crappy rules and the dealers don't want to stock them because PA residents don't want to buy them.
  15. Just sell it here in the marketplace, it's easier than dealing with shipping it. An out of state buyer is going to have to pay $50 + - for overnight shipping though UPS or Fed Ex and they will probably discount the value by that much when bidding on it.
  16. Very true, however a number of states still have their own contiguous states rules.
  17. Well then he can (and will) keep it..........forever
  18. I've never heard of anyone suing NJ for that reason, but I believe NYC was sued over excessive gun permit fees. From what I recall, NYC ended up cutting their fees significantly because of this, but I think they are still over $100 to get a gun permit there. If you want to be a test case, contact NJ2AS and see if they're interested in pursuing this issue with you.
  19. NJ residents with an FPID card can buy NJ legal long guns in DE no problem.
  20. I bought a shotgun from a Maryland dealer in the early 90's, but he was in PA at the time - this was before the ATF started enforcing the rule that requires a dealer to sell only in their home state. That dealer didn't care to see my FID card or collect sales tax on the sale because at that time MD didn't tax small purchases like that - filled out a 4473 and paid him, that was it.
  21. Report I herd yesterday............Kimbers almost all gone, dozen or so SG,and FG Winny and SA Garands put out that morning were gone in minutes after the store opened, decent selection of M1C's & D's, other than that not much left.
  22. Yeah, the British using 7mm? and since when does the military use recoil pads on military rifles?
  23. The reason you're getting different answers from different out of state dealers is that some don't know the laws in NJ and don't want to be bothered with figuring them out, for them it's easier to tell you they can't do the sale, other dealers are more eager to sell. There are a number of states that have a "contiguous states" rule (none that border NJ), so they cannot sell to you if they wanted to.
