Background checks are pointless. Even if there were a NICS check for every purchase there will always be a black market. It's like outlawing abortions; they will never stop they will only move. Being a murderer, a rapist or a sociopath doesn't make you ineligible to buy a gun. Being convicted of a felony, subject to a restraining order or being adjudicated mentally defective prohibits you from passing a NICS check. is someone adjudicated mentally defective the moment they decide to do something like commit mass murder? No. If we accept that the NICS check at the dealer is a good idea in the name of public safety, then logic dictates that the NICS check should be universal. Then people will want X Y and Z on the NICS check. Do you have speeding tickets? Dangerously irresponsible, deny purchase. Bad credit score? Unstable personality, deny purchase. Sought mental health assistance? Delay purchase until a State provider makes an assesment. Then the NICS can be taxed, suspended and delayed at will. Limits can be made on how many checks can be preformed per person per year, or month, or at all. If you don't think that's where you are taking us, take a look around. Look at the bills already being written and passed through the states' legislature. Look at the situation of gun ownership in other countries. Maybe the guy who approached the OP is a prohibited person and he knows it. Must we assume what for? Was his felony violent or victimless? Is he in a contested divorce, where restraining orders are the norm not the exception? Is he ineligible under the Lautenburg Amendment because his wife or girlfriend SAID he hit her? My point is just because you are a prohibited person doesn't mean you should be. It is good that your Police Department didn't take your inquiry seriously enough to waste money investigating this person.

You don't know anthing about rights. You are afraid of your PRIVILEGE being lost because of someone exercising their rights. Buying a handgun without the permit is a political crime only. It does not offend or molest anyone except the State, which seeks to control all the business we do and property we own. I'm not saying sell the guy your pistol. I'm saying don't call the Four Horsemen down upon him for wanting to do what tens of millions of more free Americans are already able to do. Don't forget that the Firearms ID card and Permits to Purchase are abominations and that we should be working to dismantle their existence. Do remember those who are quick to imprison for a victimless crime, the crime of exercising your inalienable right, and that they are traitors to you and I.

Wow some of you guys are making me nauseous. Especially "I'd love to lock him up." So you'd love to violate his Second Amendment right? If NJ did away with the FID and P2P this guy would be within the boundary of the law. It's only some ink on a paper somewhere in Trenton that makes wrong what this guy wanted to do. The 2nd Amendment doesn't end with "if you have a firearms purchaser ID card or Permit to Purchase." We the People have the right to keep and bear arms, period. Actually, 2A ends with "...shall not be infringed". New Jersey has made gun buying illegal with the exception of those with the proper paperwork. Sounds like infringement to me. What typical New Jersey sheep; you can't report a violation fast enough. You are actually tripping over each other to get this guy in trouble, even after he dropped the subjec after his offer was declined. It's one thing to follow each absurd order from your master, it's another thing to collaborate with him. Do not forget what side of the line you civilians are on. Maybe it's because I'm a southerner and we have a more revolutionary attitude, or because of my liberal interpretation of our rights, but I am shocked to see the pitchforks and torches come out so quickly and with such vigor. I guess I shouldn't be, not up here anyway. Each one of you eager Kapos is the reason your state is in such civil decline. Enjoy the society you've made for your children.

Collectors seek different variations of the same model, and it's great to have a back up to your self defense piece (afterall it will be held as evidence during litigation), but I don't see the advantage in having multiples, especially many multiples, of the "exact" same firearm. "Gun Hoarders" would be an interesting TV show

In my opinion it's a shame Lautenberg didn't have the honor of sacrificing his life for his country in the war. Then he could have died with the respect of real Americans, who are NOT the people who voted him into office. He was the personal embodiment of all that is wrong in politics. A crusader fighting to abolish freedom. His voice will not be missed by me or any other Patriot. That is a eulogy he worked hard to deserve.

Here's a full day... Camden Aquarium and Battleship New Jersey.. Then drive right over the bridge to Philly and see the Spanish-American War cruiser Olympia and WWII/Cold War submarine Becuna. Long Beach Island is open for business. The Tuckerton Seaport museum is a full day too, I take my daughter there a few times a year.

I've got about 35 guns, of which about 30 are "military surplus" "relic" or "antiques". I have them as a tangible piece of the Civil War, WWII, the Cold War, etc.. I do shoot them, but not often. However I'm a borderline "prepper" so I do keep a copious amount of ammo on hand. When I move out of NJ I'll most likely get a C/R license. The other 5 or 6 guns are for hunting and self defense. Two shotguns that can be used for either, two multi purpose 22 rifles and my Smith and Wesson M&P .40 exists expressly for self defense.

All we know is that he screwed himself by firing when he didn't think he needed to. Then he REALLY screwed himself when he told that to police, because now it's going to bite him in court. Like it or not a gun is one thing and one thing only- a deadly weapon. To use it otherwise is unsafe and in this case illegal. If you want to play the escalation of force game, use less-lethal weapon systems. And his veteran status means nothing in this situation. It doesn't make him any smarter or any more qualified with his weapon. The biggest dumbest scumbags I've ever met have been in the military. All it means is he signed his name on a DD Form 4.

It's not vigilante justice, it's real justice. It amazes me that you think a gun can be used as anything except a deadly weapon, such as a warning horn or a fire work. Shooting when you don't believe someone is an immediate threat is not an example of "well meaning intentions".

I'm with the law on this one. A firearm is a deadly weapon and may only be used when deadly force is authorized. It is not a whistle or pepper spray, if you want to "scare" it is the wrong tool. Also you never shoot to wound, you only ever shoot to kill, period. This guy screwed himself by saying he didn't want to kill the perp.. That means he didn't believe his life was in danger, which makes this a BAD shooting. Keeping a firearm for self defense means you are supposed to know this sort of thing! Someone else nailed it- Never, ever, under any circumstance talk to the police. Claim your right to an attorney and let him be your contact with law enforcement.

The TGI Fridays in my town isn't on this list, but 3 times in a row I went there for drinks with friends last year (2012) and all 3 times I ordered my regular drink- captain morgan and coke, and all 3 times I remarked how "off" and "not right" it was. Combined with the tiny glasses and huge ice cubes I stopped drinking there, and would mix my own on a "smoke break". But anyway I wonder if they should be reported? Im not a trouble maker but spiced rum is my drinking specialty and their drinks have never tasted normal.

This was shared on Facebook by "guns save lives" and has been making its way around regular people. Even friends of mine out of state, not gun owners, posted it and said "hey wtf is going on in new jersey?" This video is making a tangible positive effect for our side of the fight.

Ah okay, I thought it was the "right" one. Always learning! By 3 digit serial I meant the number on the bottom of the base, I'll post a pic of that. My Luger is WaA655 so it would make sense that the magazine is WaA655 also and not 37. I'm still happier with this than an aftermarket and I will keep my eyes double-peeled for the right type with the aluminum base. looks like g046 or a misshapen g846?

You're correct, Iearned that after posting the pics. Also since posting I acquired one fxo mag with what appears to be a 3 digit serial. I didn't think they had serial numbers so I looked it up and realized what I mixed up. I'm not experienced in reblues but if you're interested I can PM some close ups of the barrel. ^ I was really happy to find this, in fact I traded my aftermarket mag for the original!

I am selling a 15rd Beretta M9/M92fs mag if anyone is interested, $25 shipped or $20ftf in manahawkin or nearby. USGI, parkerized, new condition.

Nice! That is definitely on my short list!

I'm a longtime and active gun buyer/trader (no license just wheeling and dealing) and while I have been unusually active post-Newtown it isn't "directly" related to the gun control buzz, although in a way it is. In the frenzy to acquire evil black rifles, hi cap mags, etc people have been shedding their milsurp and secondary guns and accessories to fund the newer purchases. While I am all for ARs and AKs my passion is WWII guns and business has been booming. In 2006 I bought an AR for $500, traded it post-Newtown for a matching numbers German Luger worth $1,100 to $1,400. Eons ago I bought a Yugo SKS for $150 and sold it for $475 on armslist. I used that money to fund a pistol that I would have bought anyway, but I wouldn't have sold the SKS to do it. I've been buying LESS ammo and going shooting less because of the prices.

As mentioned the .22 will make you a better shooter. I also have a flinching problem that I work on constantly. A .22 will let you practice the fundamentals of marksmanship with less interference from the gun and cheaper too. 9mm is perfectly okay for self defense so I wouldn't say you "need" another 9 or a 40 or a 45. Also if you are military S&W currently has a $50 rebate for your purchase of non-shield M&Ps.

I've been waiting for a negative/aggressive reaction to my stickers for a few years, but I think the big dodge ram truck driven by a tattooed, skinhead-looking muscular guy makes them less likely to rage at me in particular. On my back windshield I have a large white AK-47 and a large white hand grenade vinyl decals over an Operation Iraqi Freedom decal. In the center ive got two large crossed-cannons and a square sticker of a civil war era cannon and he phrase "Got Balls?". On the driver side is the NRA sticker, a black German eagle on a shield and a Deutschland sticker. On my dash is my black and gold NRA hat displayed for the world to see. Note- I am not a skinhead but I always hear that I look like one (can't help it, genetics I guess). I shave my head in the summer and all the black guys I work with have jokes because I was in Germany for a while. It's all in good fun though, we're all soldiers, my room-mate is black and he knows I'd do anything for him.

My grandfather does have NJ CCW, he is a lawyer and I would say "politically connected". He ran for mayor in our town (lost, but still), is personal friends with local PD Chiefs, he used to be very active in the county Republican group. He's had it for at least 10 years, ever since I first took an interest in guns. However there are even restrictions on him (he can carry when working) and he still needs to keep it current. A mix of his job and knowing the right people I think.

Here's a mutt- Colt Govt M1911A1 US Army marked, serial dates it as 1945 production. Pre-1924 M1911 Colt slide, hammer and trigger. Iver-Johnson revolvers, 5 shot, .38 and .32 Repro black powder pistols for Civil War reenacting 1940 German P-08 Luger, Mauser Oberndorf. All matching numbers, yet an aftermarket mag. Luckily for me the magazines weren't serialized to these Lugers so I can buy any "fxo" code mag and have it be "matching".. But at about $150 a pop for those, that can wait. Spanish Ruby type .32 acp My self/home defender- M&P .40 pro series "Necessary Evil" Is this thread for pistol pics only or should I post long guns too?

If youre in south jersey, Paul at P&K Firearms in Manahawkin (ocean county) will receive your non-compliant rifle and get your work done.

I don't have the expiring permit problem because I pay for the pistol on the spot, then I go to my police department for the permits after that. If your dealer won't take your $ until you've got a permit in hand then find another dealer.

Army 2007 - present with 1 Iraq tour Basic training and Artillery school was M16a2 but we also trained on the M9 pistol, M240B GPMG and M249 SAW.. Arty school was mostly on the M109A3 155mm self propelled howitzer.. My unit had M4 carbines and even 2 Winchester shotguns until I left it in 2010!

My permit came in for the M&P! Also picked up a Spanish Ruby-type .32acp, Eibar Vesta. Used by the French and Italian armies, and those axis soldiers who captured them in WWI and WWII, and by both sides in Spain during their civil war. And this just because it looks good..
