No right to defend yourself outside your home. No right to defend your property outside or inside your home. The only time you can legally defend your life/families life is inside your home and only if your life is being threatened.

Going by what you said, this question doesn't even need to be asked.

In NJ? Not until after they already killed you. Wait......

Unfortunately, there are a lot of bad apples in the NY/NJ area.

Even though I am in a pretty decent area, I removed the wheels, strapped it to a 6x6 which was screwed down to a sheet of plywood, and chained it to a heavy table.

It's probably 5500 surge and 4400 watts continous. Correct? That means you have 36-37amps of continous power. You most likely have a 100amp service at at any giving time are probably only pulling 30 amps. You have plenty to power refrigerator, sump pump, heating, lights, and tv. Refrain from from using microwave, hair dryers, electric stoves, electric dryers, electric heat, and air conditioners. I have a 8500 watt (surge) 7200 watt continuous portable generator that will deliver a constant 60amps to my house. It's enough to run my whole house - furnace, sump, 2 fridges, lights, tv's, etc. I can even run my 3.5ton AC univt if needed (25amps). It is a poor man's setup. No auto transfer switch. I put a 240v 30amp twist lock inlet on my house. 10/3romex to panel. 30amp 240v breaker in the panel (30 amps a leg). All I have to do is plug the generator into the inlet, turn off the main, and flip on the 30amp genny breaker. My whole house is up. Materials about $150. Genny about $650. Everyone seems to be worried about feeding back into the grid. Turn off your main (main breaker in the panel) usually at the top of the panel (marked 60, 100, 200, etc). Thats all that is needed. Your genny will not backfeed into the grid thru the nuetral, the nuetral is bonded with the ground at the street, so this will not happen.

Either way they are ammo induced complete failures of the firearm. Besides, isn't that what a squib does? Overpressurizes the firearm?

Your right.

Good choice.

I have to disagree. I have researched scotus reversals a couple times. It seems they are few and far in between. Every source I found all agree it is not easy to do. The biggest factor in a scotus reversal is usually time. Most reversals happen decades later because the times have changed and the laws needed to be changed to keep up.

I was always believer that just because on gun feels better in your hand than another doesn't mean you will shoot it better. Just as you found out with the Glock. This is also why Glock is my preferred platform. I can just shoot it better.

Heller and Mcdonald have already been decided. It is extremely hard to reverse a scotus decision. It is the law of the land. What needs to be addressed is the right to self defense outside the home. Which has already been implied but not written in black and white.

The ruling should stand up in appeals court. Hopefully it will open up a flood of lawsuits in NJ. Edit. I just read the Maryland forum board. No decision yet. The appeals court sounds as if it doesn't want to rule and rather send it to scotus. The way I see it, if MD and NJ both have the same type of lawsuit looking to go to scotus at the same time, there is a good chance they will hear it. I think scotus will rule that self defense does not end at ones door.

I use eezox on all my firearms for cleaning a lubing. Works great for me, never had a problem.

You at McDonald's?

If the person getting the gun is has the appropriate permits, why does it matter where or who the money comes from? Especially with say a husband and wife. Wife picks out a gun, has the permit, hubby whips out his credit card to pay for it. I really don't see what the big deal of this is. Also, I don't understand the straw purchase. Is it when someone buys a gun in there name and permits and gives it to someone else without legally transferring it, and no longer has the gun I'm there possession? That would be illegal in NJ as an illegal transfer anyway. It almost seems that if my wife buys a gun and puts it in my safe it would make it a straw purchase. What am I missing? How could one prove a straw purchase with a husband and wife if they kept all their gun collection in one safe?

Search the forum. I think I remember reading some negative comments about them.

357, 9mm, shotgun, and an AR15. Excellent choices. You almost have all your bases covered. You will need to add an 22lr rifle in there for plinking. Like a remington 597.

Thanks. My local bank does it, for very little, probably nothing. It's just the principal of it that's got me PO'd.

I carry full coverage on all my vehicles. I just don't want to get them involved. Even though it was no fault of mine, it still goes on your insurance record, no matter what they say.

I was there to see it. And a PA cop was there also, he was in front of the utility truck. The PA cop wrote the report. Although not much, why should this cost me anything?

So a port authority utlity truck backs into my car while it is parked. There is damage to the front end to the tune of $1800. Now I have to pay for a copy of the accident report, I have to pay for registered mail, I have to pay for a notary, and I have to submit my insurance declaration page to them. And I have to wait for them at their convenience. Really? Are you kidding me? Rant over.

Sg ammo is a brick and mortar. Look at the pictures of their warehouse. There is no reason for local NJ businesses to charge so much. I am sure they can buy it for the same price as sg ammo, or another "online" dealer.

The best part is, the only people safer now are the criminals.

I just ordered 250rds of Speer Gold Dot 45acp 200gr +P from ventura munitions. $136 shipped. Something about reclassified ammo, not for LE, pratice ammo only. Anyway, the price seems right for this type of ammo. I sure hope it's loud and has a nice kick to it.
