NJ Gun Laws?

Featured Replies

I was just wondering with all the recent supreme court decisions about firearms has anyone given any thought to challenging some of NJ's gun laws. I mean it seems like we are all ok with the status quo and not challenging the establishment at all. If i am wrong i am sorry please enlighten me.

Are you talking about our CURRENT laws, or the PROPOSED ones?

I have looked on their site and can not find any info about any ongoing litigation with the State of New Jersey regarding any of our gun laws more specifically the ones where the US Supreme Court has ruled in our favor such as the Heller & McDonald v. Chicago decisions

Look at the second sticky in NJ Gun Laws....Ongoing for 2 years now.

It sucks but this state is a lost cause. I will definitely be moving as soon as I get the chance because it's only going to get worse here. And it's not just gun control.

I'd be more interested in a challenge to the "All guns are illegal except" provisions.

Seems like a slam dunk since MacDonald.

It restores INNOCENT until PROVEN guilty.

So you don't have to go to jail and spend thousands on lawyers for doing nothing illegal just because a gun was involved.

The current ones such as our lame excuse on CCW and such.

 

The current CCW laws are being challenged right now by Alan Gura in the 3rd circuit court of appeals.

 

ANJRPC challenged the OGAM and lost in court.

 

I would like to see the FID card, 15rd mag limit, seperate permit to purchase a handgun, and the NJ AWB challenged in court.

I would think that the logical thing to do is first wait to see what happens on the Federal level. Does not make sense to expend funds on lifting the NJ Magazine capacity limit if the Feds impose one. Same goes for banning any guns. The only thing I would think is changing NJ from a May Issue to Shall Issue State or at worst to a May Issue State with self defense as a valid reason. The way NJ is set up now is that you first must survive a violent criminal encounter, or know someone in power, before they will even consider issuing you a concealed carry permit. I do not see that resolved on the State level as it seems you Northerners are very liberal and seem in favor of getting guns out of the hands of civilians if the voting record is any indication. :)

 

To fight mag capacity and banned weapons while the Federal government is trying to impose its own restrictions in that area is not a good strategy right now.

Is the NJ Assault Weapons legal requirements unconstutional in light of the Heller/McDonald decision and considering "guns in common use" language?
