Check to see if this is a first gen or second gen 42. It is my understanding this was a problem with the first gen. I forget the name of the part, but if you pull the slide back, and look down, there is a metal connector of some sort right there. There should be a part number stamped on it. If it ends in "-1" you have a gen 2, if not, it is a gen 1.

I have one and carry it. I have shot it a bunch, and used it in a GSSF competition. I love the little guy. I find it exceptionally easy to shoot. I also have a Shield, which I very much like, but is a good deal larger, obviously. My GF carries her 42 as he gun of choice and is very happy with it. As for hand size, she is a typical small woman, and it fits her well. I have fairly large hands (XL gloves, shoot a 92 with Hogue grips) and the 42 fits my hand very well. As for 380 vs 9, I don't put much by that stuff. I don't want to be shot with a 22, 25, 32, 38, 380, 9 or any other caliber.

I would ask him to buy me a one of one limited edition Anthony M Beretta. I know where one is for sale for a measly $250K. It is in my safe.

Here is a link to videos of Alexander doing his thing. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Alexander+Roubian

Alexander will do an excellent job. For those of you who do not know him, here is my feedback, FWIW. I have spoken to him on many an occasion. He owns his own business, is very articulate and intelligent. He has a great personal story about the need for a defensive firearm. He is also a relatively young, good looking man, which makes him a great face for our cause. I cannot think of anyone else I would rather have lead the NJ2AS.

Sounds like a plan, Stan. I used her pretty well yesterday, hauling logs on the property. Worked like a champ. Need to get a log skidder, though.

They are not, and I never said they were. In the post you replied to, and my assertion all along is that it is legal to buy, legal to own, but when you cross the border with it into NJ, NJ law comes into play and there is the problem. Given how clearly written all the NJ laws are, we are at an impasse.

After all of this, I still am not convinced I am wrong. To anyone who is absolutely sure I am, then take the challenge. Have someone you love and care about, who does not have an FID, go to PA, buy a pellet gun, bring it back to NJ and call the local police and tell them what transpired. I am a betting man, and will bet that this ends with an arrest. The transaction is legal in PA, legal on the federal level, but I still have not seen how it is not illegal on the NJ level. Do I think it stupid? Yes. Do I like it? No. Should it change? Yes. Did I move out of NJ because of dumb shit like this? Yes. Will I offer my assistance to help my fellow NJ gun owners to get some kind of normalcy? Absolutely.

From CM Jeepster above: Q3 "A3: It is the responsibility of the seller of the shotguns, including bb, pellet, firearm to ascertain that the buyer has a and black powder rifles? Firearms Purchaser Identification Card

I bolded the area that I believe causes this to be illegal. While the pellet rifle and purchase is legal in PA, it would not be legal in NJ and hence teh transportation would notbe exempt. The person does not have an NJ FID. Therefore owning the pellet gun in NJ is illegal. I knwo I can transport my legally owned firearms across state lines, that is not what I was talkign about. I was talking about buying a gun (by NJ definitions) in PA and bringing it back to NJ (with no FID).

This post shows that you must have an FID to purchase a pellet gun, no? This post shows that one must posses an FID to purchase a pellet gun, no?

I am totally willing to admit when I am wrong, but I have not seen that here yet. Let's recap: Buy a pellet gun in PA. Completely legal. Posses a Pellet gun in NJ. Must have an FID, unless I am reading this incorrectly, and please show me where I am. Transport a firearm from another state to NJ (again, we are talking about NJ law, where a pellet gun is a firearm) - Illegal without going through an FFL in one state or the other. So if I am wrong, please show me how. Telling me I am wrong is great, but not convincing without citation.

And to end my responses here, anyone who is feeling froggy, and is sure of the legality, please go to PA, buy a pellet gun, come back to NJ and give it to a neighbor or relative without an FID and then call the cops and tell them what you just did. I will send you $ for your commissary in the joint.

post #5? Also, if you buy a firearm out of state, it must go through an FFL, either in that state or your home state. Now, a BB gun is not a firearm anywhere else, so I doubt you could get an FFL in PA to run a PICS on the purchase, so in theory, it would have to be shipped to NJ and fun through an NJ FFL. No NJ FID = No go. All those transporting exemptions are in place with an NJ FID or with legally owned firearms (read inherited). No NJ FID, no exemptions.

Not terribly exciting, since it is new, and no changes, but here she is.

(3) In the case of a crime of the third degree, for a specific term of years which shall be fixed by the court and shall be between three years and five years;

Rifles or Shotguns – Any person who knowingly has in her possession any rifle or shotgun without first having obtained a firearms purchaser identification card is guilty of a crime of the third degree. The purchaser identification card also must be obtained to acquire a rifle or shotgun. The same card is used for both the acquisition and possession.

Given that the intent is to discourage people from owning guns, or in this case, a pellet gun. A friend at work is having a rodent problem with his chicken coup. Traps, etc are not working. He said "I am going to get an air rifle, stake out the coup, and shoot whatever is coming in." When I explained to him he needed to get an NJFID to buy an air rifle, he was surprised. He said that he would go to PA and just buy one. He was even more surprised when I told him if he did so, and brought it back to NJ, he would be a felon. He then asked how long it takes to get an FID. "A couple of days?", he guessed. LOL. Told him the truth. So after all of this, he has decided not to go through the trouble of getting an FID and will forgo getting a pellet gun. Congrats, NJ, you protected some rats and trampled on another man.

I used to own and operate paintball fields and played speedball nationally. Feel free to PM me and I will provide my phone number and we can chat. Depending on your location, I can probably put you in touch with a reputable dealer near you.

Can't drive ATV on public roads in PA. I do have it insured. It has an "off road only" registration, but no idea what that means. It will never be off my property further than to the neighbors to help them out so I am not worried.

The donated ATV is a 96 Timberwolf. Works great, just needed some love. But an air cooled 225 can only handle so much slow speed work before getting hot. Plus I wanted a new toy.

Since moving to PA, I made friends with one of my neighbors who donated an ATV to the homestead. That little guy is great, but I needed something beefier for plow and work duties. Tada! Honda Rancher with DCT and EPS, winch, plow and 4 year warranty. Best part is, I didn't have to beg, borrow or plead with the Mrs. She was totally behind this sensible purchase. Which may or may not be used for trail riding as well as yard duties.

This guy is a friend and does good work. http://www.asweepingbeauty.com/

Done, even though you ride a Harley. ;-)
