So if we can have an unloading, uncased AR inside of our vehicles then what law says we cant walk around with an unloaded uncased AR on a public street? I know there is a reason we don't do open carry long arm demonstrations in this state. If you didn't have a driveway. And you parked your car in the street in front of your house, would you have to bring your rifle from the front door to your vehicle cased then uncase it once your inside the vehicle? If not they why cant we walk around town with an AR on a sling unloaded, as long as a FIDcard is carried?

^^^ regardless I'm still glad guys like Ryan are here to answer questions and bring up good points. Not everyone can read a statute and understand the interpretation. I deal with plumbing, residential, and commercial mechanical codes for a living. I spent 4 years in school beyond the 4 years I spent in college to learn how to read and interpret the laws that are contained in those code books. So I have an understanding of what I read when I look at firearms laws, but I don't know everything. Hell most lawyers probably don't understand half of it. Thankfully Ryan doesn't just ignore questions previously asked from other threads, that he has probably already answered. I appreciate it at least. And next time he wares out a keyboard I'll spring for a new one for him...

I'm a die hard devils fan since 1982 when my dad took me to the home opener at 5 years old. But with that said I'm also a hockey fan. I would much prefer to see a team from the east win out over a Western team. I stand by my decision to wish the rangers luck, even though well.... they are the rangers. I'm not that bitter about it this season anyway, hell we didn't even make a wildcard slot this year.

I definitely agree on that. Hunting violations are civil violations normally. Very few are actually criminal.

Im a devil's fan also, but I wish the Rangers good luck. Better than seeing the Flyers, Boston, Canadians or Penguins make it. Its only been 20 years since the last time they made the finals. So I guess we devil's fans will have to deal with this again in 2034 when the Rangers make it in next.

Yeah they can basically kick in your door without a warrant if your suspected of a wildlife violation.

Good point.

That makes no difference, poachers don't have hunting licenses or hunt either. They poach, thats why you could be charged regardless of if your a hunter or not. The laws apply to everyone not just licenced hunters. Its like saying "I don't have a drivers license, so the rules of the road don't apply to me when I'm driving". Conservation officers are just state troopers with tan uniforms and more authority then regular troopers. Odds of being stopped by one are slim, but the odds are good of being stopped by a cop that hunts, and knows this law. could get you a ticket. I don't know if a regular cop could actually charge you with a game code violation though, they may not have the authority to. so maybe my argument is moot...

Wether your hunting or not. Or even have a hunting license, driving your vehicle with an uncased long gun is still a violation of that law, and the right cop could charge you if he knows the game code, as many do.

I wouldn't unless you have Florida already and never plan on traveling to Washington state. The Utah alone still gives you carry rights in 31 other states, as well as the ability to vehicle carry in PA. If you plan to OC when traveling to PA vehicle carry woud be convenient.

I think all of us with a college degree got screwed, regardless of where we matriculated... It took me till 30 to pay back the 80k in loans. And my tuition was half of what it costs now.

This is the disclaimer referring hunters to the statutes for the full law. title 23 should direct you to the actual statute for uncased firearm within a motor vehicle.

Here it is in black and white, from the digest page 27 under "specifically prohibited". The digest although not the full law with statues is taken from the full law and condensed for hunters annually. Drive around with an uncased AR they can nail you on this offence if they wanted to. They'll say your poaching deer, thats the reason for the law.

The law says "only if its locked in the trunk", hard to do in a pickup truck or a jeep. I don't normally bring the BMW to kill deer. Can not have an uncased long gun inside the cabin of the vehicle.

I think the pa AG is now negotiating with Utah to allow Utah resident permits and visa versa. At least that's the information I read on their website. It's vague where it talked about why pa dropped Utah, it only says "due to a change in their laws pa will no longer honor their permit". Didn't say what the change is. Im not aware of Utah changing anything recently either.

NO! It must be cased when inside the vehicle. I have a friend who was ticketed by fish and game because he didn't fully zipper the case at the back of the but stock. The conservation officer said that's considered an "open case" not legal. Also its illegal to lean the long gun up against the outside of the truck, while your getting your case out.

If your on the way to the woods to hunt during a prescribed season and have a valid hunting license for said season, you can walk down the street with your long gun unloaded. Legal still. I live in Sussex county its not unusual to see this during deer season. I have been doing it in my neighborhood for 25 years its kind of a normal thing to see. People don't really freak out they know where your going. I wouldn't attempt it on the streets of Paterson though lol.

My brother moved to Houston about two years ago from RI, he loves it. Best of luck, congratulations on getting out of here.

Not according to their website, it says you must have a CCW from your state of residence to apply for their non resident permit. I actually looked that up today out of curiosity.

The way I feel is, he just confirmed what we all already suspected. Sucks he had to basically sacrifice his entire life to provide people with the truth.

They haven't yet, but who knows. I wish they would close the Hopatcong state park. Its full of inner city rif raf every weekend, a little too close to home for my liking. Doubt everyone that uses the park are gangbangers, most are probably normal everyday families. But I bet there are some attracted to the place.

I'm a yellow or Brown mustard guy. Also Kraut, relish, raw onions, red cooked onions in sauce, chili, cheese. All acceptable condiments for hot dogs in my world. I never realized it but, I love Hot Dog Johnny if you order a Rt. 80 it has ketchup on it. So I suppose I can stand ketchup on a hotdog as long as its muttled by all the other stuff they put on it. Or on an Italian HotDog I put ketchup on the potatoes. Dickey D's down neck.

I heard the range caught fire today?

Just threw up in my mouth a little lol...
