  1. What do you know, Thanks for the invite to stay. I thought for sure any reply to my response would have been "good ridence" or worst. Instead, if I get the gest, I was allow to vent, welcome to stay and get use to: hey, that's the way we roll in NJ Fair enough. I promised myself not to come back but my curiosity got the better of me - glad it did. So, everyone, I'll chill / lighten up and hang back a little listening (read). Live, roll and learn, hun
  2. Wow, I’m blown away (no pun intended) by the harsh replies I received to my question. OUCH. No need to reply to this, I’m sure you don’t think it was you. But man, I asked a question …. and well, welcome to New Jersey. ☹ I’ve responded below as a personal catharsis but like I said, no need to reply because I’m withdrawing from your web site. Have fun, I do apologize. I thought this web site would be in favor of the right of law-abiding citizens to legally purchase and own a firearm. I also mistakenly assumed most would be in favor of trained, license responsible adults carry if they so chose. Again, my bad. You’ll be happy to know these replies of yours bothered me because I keep hoping for a “kinder, gentler” world. Silly, me, such is life. I do hope members of this site will start to support the NRA and accept, if not support other gun owners. I’m sure you think you meant will, good luck to you all and as Red Skelton would say, “And may God Bless.” Regarding the suggestion to go to handgun law – I’ve found that only offered information on the law and not really any advise on how to best transition a firearm from store in travel to carried. Remark that with a FL carry you can carry open or concealed. It was my understanding there are many places such as Philadelphia that will consider that “brandishing”. And even if legal, I personal don’t wish to alarm the public. I understood your question. THANK YOU ☺ Reading PA's laws, it seems as if you need a legitimate reason to be there and CCW, and not just "going to drive to PA to I can CCW. Odd, I thought from my reading, that once you had a CCW recognized PA you did need a "specific" reason each time you step outside. I can’t think of anytime I simply drive around for no reason, especially with gas prices soaring. While this person may have a valid question it has been answered before and not to long ago. Perhaps, as sentence directing me to where would be been a nice touch as I couldn't find them while searching. For those who won’t respond without superfluous information, the gun in question is legally own and is not being transported “just” because I have a CC permit. As the original post states the travel would be for other reasons, visiting, pleasure, the range, and hunting. I thought NJ indicated you could transport to legal place or legal reason. ok, ok, sorry I asked ☺ Just wanted to add a few things from the other thread just in case this isn't a troll post, hey we were all new and myself I still am, and NJ law isn't the friendliest to interpret. THANK YOU ☺ Could you be any more general? If you want answers you will need to be a bit more specific, especially since you are newly registered and this is your first post. Sorry, I don’t get it. I wanted advise for transporting legally from NJ to a state that accepts my CCW and then legally the best way to change to carry. Again, sorry, I don’t see what other information is pertinent. My question is... Do you really feel insecure when visiting your family for dinners, birthdays, and the like? My bad, I can’t see what my security or insecurely has to do with Learning the legal way and best way to do something. I would suggest dropping the CCW notion and finding new family. I understand not everyone is in favor of a legal, trained, responsible citizens right to carry. I surely came to the wrong web site. You are more likely to break more laws going there, then you needing to use a firearm. I was asking about such—what are the laws that I should be aware of –it would be nice to know, even if you feel I don’t need a firearm. Further on that...what training do you have to know you can safely defend yourself if something came up? Do you have any practical shooting experience? What concealed carry and self-defense in the home courses have you taken? I have an extensive background. But I don’t think you’d believe it and really, the laws and good protocol I was asking input about – what does my other training have to do with this ---I asked because I wanted to learn. BTW I’m 5’7, 168 lbs. does that help? or do you just want to mall ninja because you can? Oh, that’s nice, your way of saying welcome to an experienced shooter I guess. Remember, just because you can buy a Hummer H1 to go get groceries, does not mean you should. And just because someone asks a question doesn’t mean they are totally ignorant. If you are uncomfortable with it, don't do it. Keep in mind, in NJ, guns are illegal unless there is an exemption for it. Yes, but believe it or not there are some people in NJ who have exceptions and actually can jump through all the hoops and make payment and in the end purchase and own a gun…legally…really it happens. And there are some people willing to be a little uncomfortable in order to protect their families and exercise their rights. And sometimes being comfortable or not depends on ones knowledge of the law…that is why I ask questions, study, practice, train and now avoid New Jersey Firearms Forum. How does your family feel about you having a firearm concealed at their home? It is their home. That is a good question. Through out a day a person may be in and out of homes, parking garages, a restaurant etc and there may be guests also in these homes. I'd be interested to hear if responsible experienced people check with other patrons, moviegoers or homeowners before entering to make sure everyone is happy. Some people never even mention that fact that they are carrying and keep it “concealed.” Something to think about. Oh, and my sister & brother in law like it and said actually glad I was when I'm there --- am I now allowed to have someone answer my question? I would really evaluate why you want to conceal carry for 2 hours in what I am assuming is PA, when you go to a family dinner. Sadly, I am yet unable to determine when a crisis will arise. At dinner, getting in or out of the car, at my home or someone else’s, while vacation, shopping etc. Oh, hope some day to be able to do that. In the mean time I’d still like to have tools of preparation with me whenever I can do so legally. Beyond this, no one here is going to give you specific advice for a few reasons... 1. You are being overly general, and gun laws are very specific. Sorry, I thought is was clear. I was to legal transport a legal firearm to a legal place and carry legally and was simply looking for advise from others on how best to do this and what to avoid. If someone could be more specific as to the specifics necessary to answer this question, that would help. 2. You are a brand new poster, with no introduction post, no one knows you or of you. (It really smells like you could be someone who registered just to get someone to give you bad advice, which can be used to get others in trouble, give gun owners a bad name, and most of all, give me more BS work) That’s ironic because the forum replies smelled like fishing to me. I ask a question to be sure I’m being safe and legal and instead of an answer I get asked to give personal information to others I don’t know and who are unwilling to discuss with me. I guess brand new poster are left to go it without the advise of those more experience…what can I say. My recommendation is for you to post some introductory posts, tell us about yourself, meet a few people off of the forum, show us you are a real, upstanding firearms owner, not a 21 year old mall ninja who just got a FL CCW and now want to go carry a bomb in your pants because it makes you feel better about yourself. Ok, I can appreciate a recommendation but how do I type and “prove” to you my credentials, after all, I asked a legitimate question and it is assumed I’m a 21-year-old mall ninja who just got a FL CCW and now want to go carry a bomb in your pants. How much information is normally required on this web site to advise someone on what Legal protocol could be recommended. Welcome to the web site, right. ☹ Troll???? Actually I didn’t know what that meant until I read these posting. No I’m not a troll, just wanted to do things right, sorry. Ensure you follow all State and Federal Laws when transporting a firearm, (The way almost ALL law abiding firearm owners do). I would think this would apply to ALL posts from your favorite caliber to what grip you like. ALL law-abiding firearm owners are just that -- law abiding and those who have out of state CCW or ask a question on a web forum are no different.
  3. I’m new to CC and would like your input. I live in a non-permissive state. Our families live throughout a state, starting less than three miles away, that recognizes my non-resistant Fla CCW. Naturally, I would like the security when visiting for dinners, birthdays and the like. I thought about traveling with it properly secured in the unload in trunk w/ammo separate and once cross the line find a place to subtle access it and reverse the procure on the way home– but this doesn’t sound seem good at all. Perhaps I could travel with it secured until I reached a relatives home and a bathroom and then have to reverse the procedure to drive home – this too doesn’t seem too good either L although this is all I could come up with…. other than just leaving it at home. Anybody have a similar situation? How do you handle it? Thanks for you time and thoughts.
