I always open the door with my glock 30 after dark....

I hope they dont see the shooter or else you going to the pokey big time.

 

 

English?

Question do I sleep with the Kimber tonight ???

 

Unless you have a good HD 12 gauge... if you do.. i would go with the 12 gauge..

 

 

 

+1 on the shotgun for home defense. Dogs are better than alarms too.

I assume he's suggesting that you'll get in legal trouble for having a legal firearm, legally in your residence just by having others see it. Waving it around, pointing it yes, I can see. Safe direction? Shrug, I don't know what the legal definition of brandishing in NJ includes someone else spotting a gun in your house.

you can legally have a gun within your dwelling, on your property, and walk around with it if you like..

 

you can NOT threaten someone with it for no logical reason..

*not ok* someone knocks selling girl scout cookies and you point it at them..

*on* pointing it at someone who has broken into your home (self defense)...

 

even with that said.. i don't unnecessarily let people know i have guns.. it only makes you a bigger target for theft when you are not home..

Let me point out that the person who comes to my door after dark would never know I have one on...And I make a rule never to step off of my threshold and outside...

in that case.. its a good practice..

And this is why I like you Vince!

 

I usually grap the 38 though, I'm old school.

Yes English the type spoken in Queens from before the sixty's to the nineties.

Now they speak Spanish. Chinese and Arabic there. LOL!!!

OOOOOOOHHHH now i get it.. LOL

 

sorry

Come July 1 State of NJ ending cash assistance or General assistance for welfare if employable. Will be a spike in burglaries. JMHO

i'd call the non-emergency line of the police department and see if the dispatcher can run the plates real fast for me.. Dont know their policy regarding that, but at least they should have a record of it.

Call the police.

 

A) The people/activity was suspicious.

B) You went through the trouble of getting the plate and a good vehicle description. They may be looking for that vehicle. Others may have called in similar suspicious activity.

C) Why would you NOT call!? If you live in the mountains (or a rural area, as I do) you know people call for really little things, such as a report of bears nearby (Really? Bears in the woods? You don't say...). Your concern is legit. Just call the non emergency number and tell them what happened.

D) What does having had the FD over last week have to do with it? The FD comes over every time I cook... :mrgreen:

Could be nothing but dumb kids, etc. But if for any reason you feel uncomfortable, call the local PD and tell them what took place. Going to the door armed but passive (gun in holster and if visible, not touched or otherwise referenced). I am unaware of any law that changes your right to be passively armed in your home or on your property just because a stranger is there too.

 

In my case after dark I like to be discreetly armed in my house. I simply prefer the safety of it.

You know I thought it was a crime to visibly display a Gun in NJ. Even when walking around the house.

"however, no Permit to Carry or FID is required:

1. To keep or carry any firearm about a person

You know I thought it was a crime to visibly display a Gun in NJ. Even when walking around the house.

 

That would make it difficult to clean them. :)

 

I think the only problem you would have is if it was in any way deemed threatening. But I guess cleaning it in your house could somehow be deemed threatening in this state now that I think about it. :(
