California actually had a pretty bad smog problem before they added all the CARB regulations. So yeah, they're a bit picky.

I have never seen such a sign. I have seen signs that say, "keep back 200 feet" or "construction vehicle, do not follow" I try to keep my distance.

If they don't tell you do it online, then don't, because they likely aren't prepared to accept it online.

I don't think anyone here wants more restrictions. They just want everyone to be subject to the same restrictions, so that there is a louder collective voice. But that seems pretty much lost, because politicians and the unions look to carve out exemptions for the police in new laws. Take for example the NJ 10 round limit bill - retired LEOs who carry would have gotten to keep 15 rounds in their carry gun under the bill. In NY the SAFE act did not apply to the police either - they passed a bill late into the night that exempted police from the 7 round limit. The excuse was that "the bad guys can't have more bullets than us." (Who exactly are the "bad guys" anyway? Law abiding gun owners?) SO excuse me if I feel betrayed by our lawmakers, that they care more about saving the lives of police than they do about joe random gun owning citizen. Also excuse me if I feel disappointed in my fellow gun owners who are LEOs who feel that they can support a LEO exemption because it gets them and the blue brothers exempted from a new restriction. At the same time, kudos to those cops who stand with gun owners and oppose new and existing restrictions for everyone. Especially high praise goes to those who reject LEO exemptions and instead believe that everyone should have the same rights.

Any idea how much good steel targets cost? I want to get a gong and a tree for shooting on private land. I still like CR but often times I feel restricted, and I have access to a bit of private land to shoot on.

Haiku?

If I don't get it resolved this time I'll run a sting. I'll even pay for the ammo.

Already done unintentionally. My friends who I shoot with go to the same store and deal with the same employee. They don't get asked for their FID, only their ID and a driver license only will suffice.

The store assistant manager called me today. He asked for some details and then said he would review the policies with the sporting goods staff. He also confirmed that their policy is to ask for ID and not for the NJ FID. I also explained to him about how my "white" friends were having no difficulty whatsoever and I was being asked for my FID and that I wouldn't have a problem if it was being applied consistently. I just want to be treated fairly. He agreed. Hopefully they will resolve this. I'll be back this weekend.

Up here in Sussex County they have a ton of gun stuff, just no guns or ammo (excluding airsoft).

I highly doubt it's a mixup. My friends bought the same pistol ammo at the same store and were only asked for DL. He asked for my DL and when he saw it was a nj one he asked for FID. I asked the guy if it was a new policy he said, "yeah anything pistol." Walmart doesn't sell pistols, at least that one doesn't.

They can get more stays if the judge agrees. He may not.

Not really. They have 30 days to appeal and they can file for a stay pending appeal at anytime. It may or may not be granted. That's up to judge scullin and if he doesn't grant it the DC circuit.

Yup exactly this. And nobody except you has the balls to call it what it really is.

The best part of getting a firearm willed to you is that there is zero paper trail connecting it to you.

I also drive through NY with guns often. No big deal at all. I try to leave the magazines >7 rounds at home though. I also have CCWs for CT and ME.

Nope totally not an attorney

I don't think it's OK but it may not necessarily be illegal. In many states (including NJ) it is legal. Some states only prohibit you while you're intoxicated and a few have a BAC over which you're illegally carrying.

He agreed to a 90 day stay, not a stay pending appeal.

Some docs opposing the stay pending appeal. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/izd5rv11etj14ab/AAC3WPf5p6wGkWAAz6OnZpvEa

HB2398 is supposedly going to bring back all states permits as being recognized in PA.

Probably too many hoops to jump through, for not enough ROI. They do sell shooting supplies like targets, protective gear, gun cleaning supplies and equipment, clothing, holsters and cases but no guns and ammo.

Yeah that's what would trigger it, but only one employee behind the counter does it and among my friends who buy at the same store, I'm the only one who they "card" like that.

One employee did it, and the same employee didn't ask my other friends who went the same day. This is what bothers me the most. Why are they asking me and not them? I don't care so much about the carding as I do care about them being consistent. I'm not ready to yell "racist" but the fact that my white friends are not carded (only DL, not FID) and I am, consistently by one single employee is a bit suspicious. This is 2014. The employee behind the counter has to realize that it's perfectly normal for colored people to buy guns and ammo.

Yeah NY is different. Not talking about NY. They actually have a law that says you need a NICS check to buy ammo now.
