Thanks guys! Even though NJ has crappy gun laws you know that you can always depend on fellow shooters. If I get base housing that is actually on the base I’ll keep my stuff with me. Otherwise as much as it frustrates me I’m going to leave all of my ARs and mags out of state. If I’m really hard up to do some AR shooting I’ll get a ban upper for my fixed stock lower and buy some 10 round mags. There is no freaking way I’m modifying any of my 30 or 20 rounders. The gun gods would smite me for defacing a PMAG like that.

 

Yes, I did have more freedoms in Afghanistan than I will have in NJ. It’s a sad commentary. I lived every day on my last deployment in Kabul with a M-9 on me at all times (some times even concealed), and I kept my M-4 under my bed with 7 loaded mags. Quick funny story. I was catching an ISAF flight out of Kabul to Herat. As I walk though the metal detector I’m fully kitted up with body armor/helmet/LBE and carrying a M-4 with 5 mags, M-9 with 3 mags, switch blade, boot knife, survival knife, and a Gerber. Obviously the detector goes off. The Australian guard on the other side (who is dressed similarly to me) asked, “Do you have any water bottles, nail files, or fingernail clippers on you mate?” I smiled and said, “Nope.” He replied, “Well then, have a nice flight. G’day.” He understood how ridiculous his job was. If it wasn’t for missing my family and kids I’d still be over there.

 

Yes, I’ll join the NJ2AS. I’ve talked with my wife and she is on board with doing whatever we can to fight. I’m thinking something about an individual right and equal protection?

 

The one bright spot in all of this is that my wife agreed that I needed a NJ legal rifle. So today I brought home a Remington 700 SPS tactical in 308.

I would do the 45min commute from PA. I do that now every day within state and it's a piece of cake. It will be worth the trip, well worth the trip. Stay out of NJ if possible.

Good luck in NJ and thanks for serving!

 

As most people say, if it looks cool and you have fun doing it, it is probably illegal in NJ. As bad as NJ is, at least you can get good food.
