Capital One lets employees carry both openly and concealed on their way to and from work at their Richmond, VA offices. Employees have to double-secure their weapon in a gun safe and locked desk drawer while at work. But employees are allowed to carry while they are arrive to or leavie from work. Visitors, not so much. We had to go through metal detectors and have our briefcases scanned.

Don't transfer her. She could be a valuable resource and should be teaching 7th grade health class. Just saying.

Rifle: Winchester 1894 in .30-30 (a rifle designed for the family who could only afford one rifle) Pistol: 1911 If allowed a shotgun: add one Remmington or Mossberg with 4 barrels: tactical, rifled slugster w/ scope, heavy field (w/ 3 std chokes), and turkey. Not overly worried about the Win94 and 1911 having specialty ammo requirements. In a true SHTF scenario, I will be eluding confrontation. The "firefight" scenario is for the movies.

The expression on Obummer's face is perfect.

After waiting 31 days for the permit, look what finally came home today. I can't wait to give it a good cleaning and lube tonight and take it to the range on Saturday.

That is not NJ-Legal, It has a collapsable stock.

So long as it is a residential home and you actually live there, you are good to go. Non-residential property, rental property (that you rent to someone else), business property, etc., are not good to go.

Gotta give credit where credit is due. Lumberton issued my permits in 31 days. And, they stopped contacting employers. I hear the new Chief is better than the old.

Trigger discipline? Not good to go in NJ. Needs to have an orange muzzle so a cop does not mistake it for a real gun.

Pie for Paul

With 74 respondants, it looks like Recreational Shooting, Home Defense, Personal Collecting, and Prepping are the leading reasons why we want firearms in NJ. I'll update when we get over 100.

I am a little shocked by the wishey-washey reviews on RAF. I am not so shy. Shoot RAF if: 1. Yo wanna shoot widt gangstas 2. Bullet holes in the walls behind the fireing line do not concern you 3. You don't mind the guy next to you putting more rounds in your target than his They have zero range discipline. It is a free-for-all. Last time I was there, about 2 years ago, I got hit in the leg by a ricochet. I will never go back.

I travel a lot for work and have used their website to find ranges all over the country. Nice to know that they have an app now. In my experience, they are OK. They have a lot of outdated information. I have learned to call the range before going to confirm their operating hours and rental availability.

Daisy Red Rider holds 250 BB's. NJ Legal? What do you want to do with a weapon like that? Why do you need a gun that holds 16 rounds of ammunition? You must be planning on a killing spree. ETA: Just kidding. Good to go in NJ.

The most aggrevating part is that most of the people who oppose stand-your-ground do not even know what it means.

This thread makes me feel OLD. Rifle: Marlin bolt action .22LR for my 12th birthday, 1977. Sold to friend for beer money in 1980. Shotgun: Inherited Grandpa's 1920's era single-shot 12ga, 1978. Probably rusting in my Dad's basement. Pistol: Walther P99, 2008. Still gots.

Retired LEO and a select few others enjoy the privlege.

It's multi-select. Select all that apply. Shooting clays would be a recreational shooting sport.

I thought it might be fun to see what aspects of firearm ownership are of greatest importance to forum members and why we all risk our personal liberty by owning firearms in this great State. Please select all that apply and let me know if I overlooked a category. PS. If we keep this serious, it could be an opportunity to send a passive message to the anti-gun lurkers. PSS. What does "Make votes public" do? I did not check it because I was not sure it if outted individual responses. Do I need to check that box?

I don't know. I suspect that the police are not providing a "service" here. I am not going to speculate about what ulterior motive they might have for wanting an opportunity to sit at your kitchen table. But, I assure you that it is not because they are trying to make the process more convenient for the citizen. I don't like it at all. I would prefer to meet the officer at the police station, where police business is supposed to be conducted.

(Frustrating that we cannot post pictures in this community) No question, this is a pistol grip. http://t1.gstatic.co...xdb4zrUUG6ZvCHf Is this a pistol grip? No? Why not? There are no ergonomic differences? It is a grip, and it is below (in a lower plane from) the action. http://t1.gstatic.co...xGCxbGFJT1lYyMa

I still see it as contradictory. Section 2. iii. allows one of a list evil feature and Section 3 disallows any of almost the same list of evil features. How is that not contradictory?

This has probably been discussed before, but I could not readily find it. The “Assault firearm” definition as it pertained to semi-automatic shotguns reads as follows: "Assault firearms" means: 2. … A semi-automatic firearm should be considered to be "substantially identical," that is, identical in all material respects, to a named assault weapon if it meets the below listed criteria: iii. A semi-automatic shotgun that has at least two of the following: (1) A folding or telescoping stock; (2) A pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon; (3) A fixed magazine capacity in excess of six rounds; and/or (4) An ability to accept a detachable magazine; 3. A semi-automatic shotgun with either a magazine capacity exceeding six rounds, a folding stock or a pistol grip; I always interpreted it as: [2. iii. (3)] This shotgun has a “pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon”. http://www.gunslot.c...mages/51566.jpg [3.] This shotgun has a pistol grip: http://www.marstar.c...-BR003XL-EX.jpg But, my FFL said no. Any pistol grip is illegal. If that is the case, then section 2 becomes irrelevant and the vast majority of turkey guns would also be illegal. That does not seem right. Second question, it that is true, then when does a pistol grip become a pistol grip? http://t1.gstatic.co...xGCxbGFJT1lYyMa http://t0.gstatic.co...5ETP5aJjyrOU1-g http://t1.gstatic.co...xdb4zrUUG6ZvCHf (Sorry about the links.

I still like his songs. ETA: The link to his interview is broken so I cannot hear and judge for myself.

Am I missing something? HP ammo is allowed in the home, on the range, on hunting grounds, etc. So why can't I use them to shoot a bad guy breaking into my home?
