Unless you're in Utah where it's only loaded if there's one in the chamber

Far from over.

I have a 7 year old refurb dyson dc14 still going strong. Yeah it's plastic but it picks up cat hair like nobody's business. One of my cats sheds to ok end and the dyson picks it all up.

Oh nice. Wonder how that would work in NJ though.

I am interested in this case because if Abramski wins it would mean that you can now truly buy firearms as gifts. That would be nice. Nothing like a glock or an AR under the christmas tree.

If I could move I could move to NC. There are jobs in my field there and pay is decent, cost of living is decent, and of course good respect of 2nd amendment rights.

Well yeah, of course he "broke the law" which is why this case exists. But his uncle was not a prohibited person, so the spirit and intent of the law wasn't broken. All he wanted to do was get a Glock for his uncle at the blue label price, not buy a gun for a felon to commit a crime or anything. I buy stuff for people all the time. Not guns because of the straw purchase thing, but I buy for people who can't get it where they live (out of the country) or because they don't have a credit card, or I have to use a club membership like Costco to buy the particular item.

Pay scale is aligned to cost of living. I'm sure if I move somewhere else I will lose pay but I will have more house and more everything else for my money. And I won't be sending so much of my paycheck to the Government anymore.

They took up this case the same day that they denied cert for the carry case in Maryland...

First review of the upgraded XD-S. Can't wait to get mine back! http://www.gunsamerica.com/blog/springfield-armory-xd-s-recall-update-review-of-upgraded-guns/

Now they are allowing you to order the SB212A online. At least NJSP is when you apply at the NJSP barracks (if you don't have a local PD and your town is served by NJSP). The cost is $20 and you pay online with a credit card.

Yeah I transport through NY on my way to CT and PA all the time. No issues whatsoever. Apart from FOPA, just use common sense and don't drive like an idiot.

Only problem is if you're going to visit, no CCW since they now require a home state permit. But you can still OPEN carry... Evan Nappen lives up there.

NJ has no definition of loaded at all, and it's up to the judge. In NY they have a definition of loaded and you only need to possess ammo for the gun for it to be loaded.

News to me. It's not like you're relinquishing possession. You still own the gun, it's just at the gunsmith's for repair/cleaning/service. In fact I have a pistol away at Springfield Armory right now for the recall repair/upgrade and I do not need a PtP to get it back.

You mentioned tribal police. I believe that some nations may not allow carry even though the state they are in do. It's an issue in states like UT and AZ. Not sure about VT. So just be careful when you're on Indian land.

File a change of address directly with NJSP. It's good to keep the FID card should you ever pass through NJ and score a good deal on ammo.

Good news - Springfield has started shipping back repaired/upgraded guns. Hoping I can get mine soon. Can't wait to take it to the range once again.

http://www.buffalonews.com/city-region/lockport/lockport-police-catch-flak-for-safe-act-arrest-20131016 Looks like the SAFE act claims another victim. I hope the challenge goes forth soon. The good news? They are feeling the heat from the citizens... Try not to turn this into a cop hating thread. Please.

Without a doubt.

Here's the full docket. http://ia600709.us.archive.org/0/items/gov.uscourts.hid.98653/gov.uscourts.hid.98653.docket.html

Here's the original complaint. http://www.hawaiidefensefoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/CV11-00513SOM-RLP.pdf Hawaii is actually similar to NJ but much stricter. In fact if you get a CCW in one county it won't be good in another.

They usually hear the cases because there is a circuit split. That is the determining factor. With the right to carry cases there hasn't really been a strong circuit split, but that could change with the Hawaii case. And no, I don't think it's fatigue about gun rights issues or anything of the sort. If the 4th circuit had struck down G&S in Maryland but the 3rd had upheld justifiable need in NJ, I am 99% sure that one of the cases would have been granted cert. So far the closest we have to a circuit split is that the 7th struck down Illinois's complete ban on carry, which is not really a split. So we have to get a real split then this could force the issue into SCOTUS. Baker (Hawaii) in the 9th has the best chance of doing so.

Reality is once they're done with NJ they are going to try it nationally. Where do you think Diane Feinstein gets her wacky ideas from?

It really depends. It's not an absolute. Look, Vermont is a deep blue state but strong on gun rights...
