She already has a pink Daisy lever-action BB gun. The more I think about it, I think a 22LR might be better idea and to skip the pellet gun all together. A bolt-gun would certainly be a nice first choice, but a semi-auto might be interesting, too. A 13-year old should be able to handle a semi-auto. Maybe a 10/22 or a Marlin 795. Not sure if the stock would be too long, though.

Not too familiar wit air rifles. Any thoughts on a good pellet gun for a teenager to plink with, supervised? Obviously she wouldn't have "ownership" of it. Would the Beeman Combo be a good choice? The ability to shoot .177 and .22 might be nice. How about the Gamo Big Cat? Any other thoughts? Maybe a .22LR bolt gun would be better? Budget is under $200.

All NJ legal gun owners have already gone through numerous hoops with background checks.

A friend has asked me the values of the following 22s all in pretty nice shape. Any thoughts? Charter Arms AR-7 Nylon 66 Marlin 39A German Mauser 22 training rifle I was thinking about purchasing the 39A.

I say it is a good choice. It has the grip angle you like and it has more weight to it than the 22/45 or 22/45 Lite, which though not as versatile, might be better for bullseye. Heck, with the money you saved you can probably find a used older Ruger 22/45 to play with as well, or a Wrangler. I would like to get a S&W Victory at some point. I like it, but to me the lines need to be improved a little for aesthetics. It is chunky, and cannot justify adding it, as it is too similar to a Ruger Mark in function. I don't mind the Mark grip angle or take-down. Maybe they are not even close, but for some reason the older blued Ruger Mark II remind me of Han Solo's blaster, and its replica which was something that was lost in my childhood. I remember acting out that poltically incorrect scene with Gwido. I had wanted that toy so bad and finally got one, and when our washing machine was on the fritz and I was in school, my pre-school-aged younger bro "borrowed it" and took it to the laundromat and it was left there, and never to be replaced. My toy six-shooters or 1911 just couldn't replace it.

I thought handguns could be transferred via family members (children, step-relations, siblings, parents, grandchildren) and LEOs, not sure about collectors, without an additional background check except for the NICS. It would seem that OGAM would be on the honor system (however, when you submit the copies to law enforcement and the State it could be checked) but that pistol permits (so that mandatory registration) could be done whether there is a checkbox or not. It is interesting that if you sell a handgun now, you no longer get a copy of the pistol permit, as that is retained by the FFL that has to handle the transaction. The good thing about it, though, is that your personal information doesn't have to go to the buyer/seller whom you may not know.

Williams Peep Sights on the rimfire rendition (bolt action)... But nothing apparently for the center-fired rifles without a Gunsmith. If iron sights are important, check out the Savage Scouts or the CZ 527s.

CZ gets my vote. A used FNH FNP might be interesting. On a real budget $200 you could consider a Star BM. What about a Taurus PT1911?

Van Halen? Thought Police? Rosebud? Very nice Revolver.... Love shooting 44 Special.

It is hard hitting and low recoil and a .30 caliber. Def. an answer in those states but sg 11 dollars a box for target ammo It should be a blast at the range. Nice having a decent mid-range cartridge.

Ruger has some rifles offered: Ruger Releases 3 Rifles in 350 Legend About $11 per box for 350 Legend (maybe not in NJ). I wonder if Henry Repeating Arms will come out with a lever-action in this caliber like its Long Ranger.

A .223 case necked-up and a 9mm/.357-sized projectile in an AR platform similar in power to a 7.62x39 and a 30/30. What’s not to like? Hard-hitting, little recoil Who is selling uppers? I wonder if they will come out with a conversion kit for some rifle renditions (single shot, etc.) that would be able to handle 9mm. Being that it essentially uses two common ammo parts it should be a affordable mid-range caliber similar to 7.62x39, but American-made and designed!

Ok. Seriously, I’m convinced. Screw Stallone and Hollywood. I will repeat what Sniper quoted above: “Until America, door to door, takes every handgun, this is what you're gonna have" -Stallone. Action-hero and hypocritical POS. https://www.ammoland.com/2019/08/last-blood-should-be-last-straw-for-gun-owners-and-stallone-movies/#axzz605Tzi1LY

Calling all Liberals, waste your money and get your tickets.

Sounds reasonable, huh? Fudds be Damned... Go after the bad guys and help those with mental health issues and leave the citizens alone! Lets pass universal term limits and keep violent criminals away from the people and then go from there.

ANY mandatory background check will be a form of registration. Any App that would allow for such would be a form of registration and would put private information out there for any to intercept or be abused. Once the information is out there it cannot be retracted. Registration is de facto confiscation. Commercial seems to mean that it would be any advertised sale... (posting of forum, at range, hey I have a gun for sale, etc.). Only examples (gifts) among friends and family might be exempt? NJ wasn't supposed to keep records of the NICS checks, but it does. Do you believe the federal NICS check doesn't? And, who would be doing the free background checks. The check might be free but not the service.

Haven't the Beltway Statists drafted laws to ban drones, yet? Don't they know that black assault rifles are the best defense against terrorists with drones? At least there should be some drone-free zones.

There is not enough information to make any calls. Preface that, though, with the fact that NJ is unjust. The laws broken don't fit the punishment. Was there room behind the seat for everything ? Was the observed case secured? Were the others secured? Is there in fact a place to shoot in Dingman's Ferry? Could he have driven in PA with said case on front seat? Perhaps he does all the time. How did he happen to leave that stuff in his car overnight? Pretty Obbvious he was singled out for PA plates. On the other side you would have to be all kinds of stupid to do what he did. Were the guns owned by him with a clear path? I would tend to agree with some on here that other than the fact that this probable poor schmuck most likely didn't need to be stopped and harassed the seemingly complete disreguard for the Reupublik's largely unconstitutional laws would have been a red flag. Any officer would need to act on this one and let it be sorted out later. However, since NJ is so unjust it should give all LEOs pause to consider this domino of events. Was he transporting guns for new ownership? Did he just pick them up, or just steal them? Was his job that of a bankrobber in NJ? Did he have any misdemeanors or other offenses, and what was his mental state? Was he bringing his daughter's contraband out of the Republik so that she wouldn't be in trouble? So, he had brought them in and was on his way out? The court (if it had any) should be able to use common sense and discretion. Keyword SHOULD, but then this state is just too unjust for that and has mandatory sentensing to put idiots behind bars instead of violent criminals. The fact that this guy was.released.pending trial would suggest he is just a dumb ass possibly with Alzheimers and truthfully not otherwise a threat and that his story checked out and that he was not considered dangerous, but rather caught up in this drag net and brilliant police work against seemingly nonviolent citizens. He should NOT be excused for his actions BUT justice and common sense SHOULD prevail and the punishment SHOULD fit the crime. However in NJ that isn't going to happen. Perhaps he was.a.disgruntled employee? Maybe he had tools, or the stuff just didn't fit behind his seat. Was he coming from his OWN business and consequently was he allowed to transport under an exemption. We don't know details. Maybe he was threatened. Maybe he had them with him because they weren't secure at his PA residence and on his person was the safest place. The BS charges on Mag limits and configuration are unjust on face value, just a way to trap citizens. Real criminals wouldn't have even been charged, and or plea-bargained down. Lots of details are left out, regardless, it is most certain he won't be treated justly in this Democrat-Run State.

Can Iron/fibr optic sights be added?

The Nists are a Comin. That is socialist Democrat Terrorism. Where are our elected Sherrifs?

Contact your local police department that issued them and drop them off and have them renewed for another 90 days. Depending on the municipality and NJ tyranny they may or may not comply.

Early Christmas?

Why would a sizeable percentage of Socialist Democrats care about someone's rights to freely associated with other lawful individuals for a lawful and common interest, which happens to support the Constitution and individual rights and freedoms? It goes against just about everything they stand for.
