Seeing as how NH is shall issue and the Live Free or Die state, I doubt anyone who has an actual agenda has the power to enforce it. My implication was of the 20 or so states that were researched they didn't ask if you were ever denied a ccw. I never said that no state asks that question.

How could it have any negative impact on approval? Being denied because you are a felon, wife beater, or drug addict is not the same as some judge saying you have no justifiable need to exercise a constitutional right.

If someone who regularly speaks with Frank from NJ2AS, could ask his opinion on this we really have nothing to lose. Maybe Frank could speak with Alan Gura and ask if he thought it was a good idea or not. Possibly someone could write up a generic "justifiable need" letter, highlighting Heller & McDonald, and some of the points Mr. Gura made during the recent hearing. We all submit a well written factual letter and see what happens. Worst case scenario, when you fill out the form for pistol permits you have to answer yes to question #24 and simply say that NJ doesn't recognize the 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution or decisions made by the SCOTUS. Best case scenario you have to start shopping for holsters.

Yep, well I'm never going fishing again.

Ok. So your fear is that if you ever leave NJ and apply for a ccw in another state there will be some box that asks if you've ever been denied a permit to carry. If you read through this thread at least 20 states were researched and it doesn't ask on their ccw application if you were ever denied a permit to carry.

I actually knew a kid who did this in high school. Got in a fight at a party, beat the shit out of this guy, and then proceeded to piss on him. Pretty epic.

Please explain the significant risk involved.

That is the reason nothing will ever change in this state. Gun owners scared of other gun owners.

[citation needed] So you are stating something as fact, without being positive if you are correct or not?

Why would you not be allowed to re-apply?

Yep, that is the exact reason people choose not to apply. I think we should have a mass submission of CCW applications. If every member of NJ2AS submitted an application, and they all came back denied that would be a powerful message to show the judges.

Lol.

IF there is any ammo for sale, expect outrageous prices. The panic is not yet over, and supplies are still hard to come by. I would honestly save the gas money and put it into your gun piggy bank.

Nice.

Buy a motorcycle.

All I can think of right now is Office Space, my my stapler. lol If you want a cop job just start taking tests. My buddy is in the hiring process for state corrections right now. He is younger then you, no college at all, no military, and he isn't very smart. The next police test is being announced in June, study for the test and score as high as possible.

I was at Cabelas a few weeks back and shotgun ammo was plentiful and regularly priced.

Thanks for making me your test subject. lol I wonder how this will work out, your move mister moderator.

Not exactly good advice, I clicked on the wrong picture that wasn't the "bitches love" meme I wanted to post but whatever. This is what I was going for.

Just to really hammer home the point, YOU NEED TO HAVE CONFIDENCE. Being a confident man will get you places in life that being a shy boy won't. Be proud and comfortable with yourself, like Marcus said don't beat yourself up if you get rejected. Roll with the punches and get back up. Small talk and jokes don't let that awkward silence take over. If all else fails.....pic related.

Fast shipping, good deal. Thanks again. +1

I fail to see the big problem with having to explain the reason for your denial. Say....you move to PA, go to apply for a ccw and IF(big if) the cop asks you if you were denied in the past, all you have to say is you applied and were denied in NJ because a judge said you didn't have a justifiable need to exercise a constitutional right. bs and small talk about NJ's other Draconian laws and I would bet money you will walk out with a license no problem-o; assuming your background check came back clear. If you are worried about having to check some box in the future, read the quote above from ryan_J.

Perfect thread to ask question. I was at Sarco a few weeks back, and had a 6.5 Jap rifle. I don't know the model it was short, carbine size, the mum was intact. They were asking $4000, that price tag blew my skirt up, I asked the one guy who I'm friendly with about the price and he couldn't give me a real good answer. Does anyone know what the hell I was actually looking at that would warrant that price tag?

I will 4th the recommendation for Rick at OMG Custom Guns. When it comes to working on my things, if I can't do it, I trust very few people with it. I've brought a few guns to Rick for work, and top notch service every time.

There was talks a few months ago about a range opening up in Kearney. I haven't heard any news recently though.
