Sorry to hear that, Howard.

There's one scenario where I wouldn't feel comfortable doing this: Bringing pistols to a WMA with the intention of going to a pistol range before/after. Not saying it's illegal (or legal). But the possibility of having a CO asking to look at my guns, ammo and hunting license when I'm going in my trunk, knowing there's no handguns allowed at those ranges, makes me a little itchy.

I'm big on frog lube. I use it on everything except the deer gun. It's really great.

lol

I'm bringing 2 Maverick 88s in 20ga, 26" and 20" w/ youth stock

Looks like I'll be there with a couple of 20ga Mavericks, clays, shells and a first time shotgun shooter.

Nice, firing up the DVR.

RIP to a great American.

-I go to LGS on my lunch hour, pick up a 15 round mag (no ammo or guns with me, just a mag). -On my way back to work my phone rings, I look down for a sec to see who it is, look up, a pedestrian jumps out in front of my car. -Slam on the brakes, barely touch him/her. -The cops respond to the scene, I get hit with 39:4-36, Reckless Driving. Eff! 5 points, insurance will skyrocket, etc. -But since the pedestrian fell down and scraped his/her knee, I also get charged with 2C:12-1c(1), Assault by Auto (D.P). Double eff. But it's still just a Municipal Court offense, will just have to pay a fine and move on. Except, that magazine in the bag, still in the package, makes me a felon. Huh? Well I possessed it while committing a crime. Goodbye job. Goodbye 2A rights. Hello working at Walmart stocking shelves overnight for the next 30 years.

Army- Recruit says he wants to kill soldiers like in Fort Hood. Let's just cut him loose. FBI- YESTERDAY! We're looking for that guy that wants to pull another Fort Hood massacre. Army- TODAY. Some guy is at Fort Hood, killing people. So much WTF!

WTF kind of security is the Army providing at its bases?

Meanwhile, just yesterday: http://washingtontimes.com/news/2014/apr/1/fbi-alert-former-army-recruit-planning-fort-hood-i/

A U.S. Army official at Fort Hood confirms that a shooting has occurred at the base, though the number of people injured and the severity of their injuries has not been confirmed. KCEN reports at least one person has been transported to an area hospital in an unknown condition and that possibly three others have been injured. The shooting is believed to have taken place at the Medical Brigade Building. KCEN-TV reports there are also reports of victims at the Battle Simulation Center. The shooter is believed to be at-large and the base is on lock down. Just after 5 p.m., the base tweeted that all personnel are being asked to shelter in place.

I'll chime in here in say that there's no right answer to this. It's a matter of preference more than anything else*. To answer the original question, I keep it simple: 38/357 9mm 45ACP *some ppl say having guns in numerous calibers would help if things get ugly you gotta scavenge ammo. I say to that: A. Where are you finding stockpiles of .380, .41 mag etc, but no guns to go with it? B. If you have to hit the road, are you seriously bringing 12+ handguns in different calibers on the off chance that you'll run into some ammo for one of them? C. If you end up bunkered down at home/bug out location, you'd be better off having invested in reloading supplies, than having to go out looking for ammo. P.S. There are 1911s chambered in 9mm. Though if you buy one, some ppl might judge you, lol

-Post count is irrelevant vis a vis subjects that the person posting hasn't had any prior interest in. I could have 200k posts and still never read a single thing about black powder rifles. -I did have a fair idea what the right answer was, but I've never had to deal with this small corner of NJ's FUBAR'd gun regulations before. If it were my bb gun I probably wouldn't have even thought about it or would at least have found out years ago. But it isn't and the dude whose it is asked me, so I said "I'll ask some people who'll definitely know" rather than possibly giving him the wrong info. -In any event, I'm glad I did. If you look at the posts above yours, there are people here who still don't feel like they know. So if it helps them, even better.

Thanks guys. That's what I thought but figured it wouldn't hurt to ask. Will pass along.

There are absolutely ppl in NJ with carry permits whose justifiable need is less than people like Drake and Pantano. IANAL so I'm not sure how this hasn't been brought out through discovery, but it seems like it would be a useful argument in these cases.

Lol
