New Jersey Assemblywoman Joan Quigley asked the question: I introduced that bill in the spring of 2006. If it had actually become law on the day it was introduced, Mr. Braico would have been able to accumulate 33 handguns between then and now. I fail to see how that’s an unreasonable restriction on his civil rights. And I do wonder what he mi...

Women exchanged their traditional roles as mothers, daughters and wives for a chance to be shotgunshooting, wild-game-cooking outdoor adventurers.

Sebastian post about the hazards of traveling through NJ as a gun owner. Fortunately, I am not likely to be driving through NJ any time soon, but I am pretty sure I have 10 rounds of .22 hollow points in my car, left over from some trip to the range or other, which could land you a long time in prison there. ...

I’ve had a bit to say about why we don’t dominate the Olympics here, but Kim has some more, and I think he’s right about this: The problem is that outside the Army Marksmanship Unit, there are no professional Olympic shooters in America—no sponsorships, no funding from any source—so therefore people cannot afford to train for ...

Newspaper stops using the term progressive. Probably because there’s been no progress under Pelosi. - SayUncle I suppose I really shouldn’t complain, because I disagree with 95% of what they would do, but can you name anything of any worth that Congress has done since the Democrats took over? And I am willing to recognize things of worth o...

A Pennsylvania man gets busted for having a loaded gun in his car.  He has an LTCF in Pennsylvania, but not for New Jersey.  My bet is he forgot he had the gun in the car.  I do not normally keep loaded guns in my car, but I do often keep my range bag in the car.  You don’t know how often I’ve had to turn around because I suddenly r...

Among the rights that black bears have in New Jersey is not being killed by family pets when they wander onto your property.  I’m surprised the mother didn’t kill the dog.  A grizzly mama would have.  Charges in this case are outrageous.  The dog was penned, scaled the pen, and attacked the bear on their own property.  What’s...

The Republicans, if they are smart, will make an election issue out of the hunter arrested at Pelosi’s hotel at the Democratic National Convention.  Especially with these guys running around.  Hunters need to understand that gun control is absolutely a threat to them, as this incident pretty clearly demonstrates.  What are hunters more con...
