There is a special exemption in the NJ statutes that gives you some additional travel options: 2C:39-6. Exemptions f. Nothing in subsections b., c. and d. of N.J.S.2C:39-5 shall be construed to prevent: (1) A member of any rifle or pistol club organized in accordance with the rules prescribed by the National Board for the Promotion of Rifle Practice, in going to or from a place of target practice, carrying such firearms as are necessary for said target practice, provided that the club has filed a copy of its charter with the superintendent and annually submits a list of its members to the superintendent and provided further that the firearms are carried in the manner specified in subsection g. of this section

2C:39-6 - Exemptions e.Nothing in subsections b., c. and d. of N.J.S.2C:39-5 shall be construed to prevent a person keeping or carrying about his place of business, residence, premises or other land owned or possessed by him, any firearm, or from carrying the same, in the manner specified in subsection g. of this section, from any place of purchase to his residence or place of business, between his dwelling and his place of business, between one place of business or residence and another when moving, or between his dwelling or place of business and place where such firearms are repaired, for the purpose of repair. For the purposes of this section, a place of business shall be deemed to be a fixed location.

So is going to a hotel a reasonable deviation or do you have to first go to a range nearby a hotel and then back to the hotel (assuming you are a member of a NJSP registered club)? As Nappen says, everything is illegal in NJ unless you are given a specific exemption. All of the exemptions are affirmative defenses, meaning you end up spending lots of money in court proving your innocence. On the 240th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, NJ and similarly minded states (like CA) are an embarrassment.

Unfortunately true. But without Scalia I am not sure that we want them to unless it is an outright ban of everything.

Welcome! I like to rent a number of guns before buying. It is money well spent. RTSP has a good selection to try. 45 can get more expensive to shoot.

I used to not clean them that frequently until I had a failure to extract/eject. Now after each range session (or a day later if I can't get to it that day). Cleaning them after each use is easier than having to clean a few at once. Once a year I will do a complete breakdown, clean, and lube of all of them. I find the revolvers are more of a pain than the semi-auto's.

Pretty good results!

Here is a link for Potassium Iodide Tablets, 130 mg (14 Tablets) For $6.60 https://smile.amazon.com/iOSAT-Potassium-Iodide-Tablets-130/dp/B00006NT3A/ref=sr_1_8_a_it The dosage is 1 tablet per day for up to 10 days. "Iosat Potassium Iodide has been FDA approved since 1982. Stockpiling of potassium iodide (KI) is highly recommended by health officials worldwide to prevent thyroid cancer of those exposed to radioactive iodine following a nuclear reactor accident or detonation of a nuclear weapon. Radioactive iodine can travel hundreds of miles downwind, such as it did after the Chernobyl and Fukushima disasters. The thyroid is the only part of the body that absorbs and stores iodine. By taking FDA approved potassium iodide prior to exposure of radioactive iodine, your thyroid will become saturated with safe, stable iodine. This will prevent your thyroid's absorption of any additional iodine (radioactive or not) long enough for the radioactive iodine inhaled or ingested to be safely dispersed through the kidneys." "Potassium iodide should be taken as soon as possible after public health officials tell you. You should take one dose every 24 hours. More will not help you because the thyroid can "hold" only limited amounts of iodine. Larger doses will increase the risk of side effects. You will probably be told not to take the drug for more than 10 days."

Very nice. But I have no anti-gun friends (they don't want to have anything to do with me).

Although everyone would like to be prepared for SHTF, the way more likely scenario is someone getting into a bad auto accident or accidentally getting shot at a range (if not yourself then someone else for both scenarios). You can be prepared for this with not that much training or equipment. Gun For Hire gives a number of courses including CPR/AED, first aid, and treating gun shot wounds. A wilderness survival course would be the next level up.

They have but it has not generally known. One of the original plaintiffs in the Heller case was Tom Palmer an openly gay man Also the Pink Pistols filed an amicus brief in the Heller case http://www.scotusblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/07-290_amicus_pink_pistols.pdf

As others have said before you do anything get some training and then some more training. You will then be able to put together a kit that will make sense as to when you would use it.

I thought it was only the justifiable need that was to be reversed.

We are limited in NJ to 6 shells in a semi-auto so I figured you would be loading more times than a pump that say holds 10 shells. is that not the case? if loading a shell takes the same amount of time in each gun, then wouldn't we be loading almost two times more often with the semi? What is wrong with the 870? I had looked at the Benelli but the action seemed "loose" and it rattled.

I am looking at getting a pump shotgun for use in knock down steel matches. I am interested in the Remington 870 and I have a few questions: 1-What length barrel would you recommend? I was thinking about the 26" or 28" as it would allow me to add a large magazine extension to the end of the barrel. btw: I won't be using this for clays as I would eventually like to get either an over/under or side by side for that. 2-I am assuming the more shells that the magazine can hold the better (from the speed of reloading sense). But will too long a gun with too many shells make the gun too front heavy? Any other thoughts/suggestions will be appreciated.

NJ Statute: 2C:58-3.1. Temporary transfer of firearms. a. Notwithstanding the provisions of N.J.S.2C:39-9, N.J.S.2C:58-2, N.J.S.2C:58-3 or any other statute to the contrary concerning the transfer or disposition of firearms, the legal owner, or a dealer licensed under N.J.S.2C:58-2, may temporarily transfer a handgun, rifleor shotgun to another person who is 18 years of age or older, whether or not the person receiving the firearm holds a firearms purchaser identification card or a permit to carry a handgun. The person to whom a handgun, rifle or shotgun is temporarily transferred by the legal owner of the firearm or a licensed dealer may receive, possess, carry and use that handgun, rifle or shotgun, if the transfer is made upon a firing range operated by a licensed dealer, by a law enforcement agency, a legally recognized military organization or a rifle or pistol club which has filed a copy of its charter with the superintendent and annually submits to the superintendent a list of its members and if the firearm is received, possessed, carried and used for the sole purpose of target practice, trap or skeet shooting, or competition upon that firing range or instruction and training at any location.

It doesn't say target range so you should be good to go: 2C:39-6. Exemptions. f. Nothing in subsections b., c. and d. of N.J.S.2C:39-5 shall be construed to prevent: (1) A member of any rifle or pistol club organized in accordance with the rules prescribed by the National Board for the Promotion of Rifle Practice, in going to or from a place of target practice, carrying such firearms as are necessary for said target practice, provided that the club has filed a copy of its charter with the superintendent and annually submits a list of its members to the superintendent and provided further that the firearms are carried in the manner specified in subsection g. of this section;

Margaret Thatcher: "What we should grasp, however, from the lessons of European history is that, first, there is nothing necessarily benevolent about programmes of European integration; second, the desire to achieve grand utopian plans often poses a grave threat to freedom; and third, European unity has been tried before, and the outcome was far from happy." "The European single currency is bound to fail, economically, politically and indeed socially, though the timing, occasion and full consequences are all necessarily still unclear. 'Europe' is the result of plans. It is, in fact, a classic utopian project, a monument to the vanity of intellectuals, a programme whose inevitable destiny is failure: only the scale of the final damage done is in doubt." "To be free is better than to be unfree - always. Any politician who suggests the opposite should be treated as suspect."

I am wondering how much effect the shooting in Germany had on the vote? Then there is the Trump/Sanders effect so maybe there is globalism after all

Welcome! You might want to go to a range with a good selection and try out each of the guns you are interest in.

Yup. They wanted single payer since the beginning. Once this fails they get what they wanted.
