Maksim Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Make sure it is nj legal. No mags over 15 rounds. direct travel to and from range. unloaded in a locked case in trunk. better yet... I wouldnt in nj, especially if you do not have a residence in the state. yes... people do it... but you do not want to be the next case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maksim Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 NJ mag capacity limits are 15.... so those 17 rounders will get you possession of high cap mags if stopped by LEO. to be NJ Legal, those 17 rounders would have to be permanently modified to 15 rounds. Considering you cannot carry in NJ anyway for CCW, I would just drop the idea honestly. Make a friend here in NJ and borrow their gun. In NJ, guns are illegal, with a few exceptions, ie for travel between range/store/gunsmith and home/your own business. Legally, you can't take your gun over to your buddies house. Much less parent's house. Do people do it? I am sure. But if you get pulled over... you are opening yourself up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nik Habicht Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 1 10 and rest 17, can I ship Fedex or UPS to a residential address? Not without committing a felony. Send the MD an e-mail, to ask if he can arrange for the loan of some 10 rounders.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I'm gogn to be flying to NJ from FL for my parents 50th. Theres a USPSA match I might like to shoot. I fly often with my G34 so know the base TSA and airline rules. What considerations to I need to be aware of in and out of Newark airport and having it while visting there? If you travel to NJ and shoot in Pa (not very far away - depending on exactly where in NJ you're going) - the mags are legal in PA. And, a lot of good shoots in PA. Check the schedule at USPSA website - look up ranges in PA - Much friendlier to large mags than NJ. Good luck, Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possession of high cap mags in NJ is illegal pure and simple. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandtime Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Get in touch with Jim Norman at OBCATS in Old Bridge. He was able to hook me up with a gun and ammo (You can't buy ammo in NJ without a valid permit.) when I was up that way. One of the nicest groups of shooters that I have had the pleasure to shoot with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but there is a recent Federal Appeals Court decision in the Third Circuit (covers NJ) that makes what you are planning on doing a very bad idea. If you want details, send me a PM. Michael P. Gottlieb, Esquire Edited June 28, 2011 by mikegot38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
