Hello, new owner of a handgun in NJ. Had a question for all of you experts out there! I keep seeing all these different things online so I have an suv so the trunk area is accessible to the back seat area. From my understanding, it needs to be locked in a case and its fine to be in the trunk of my suv? Also my other question.. the ammo.. that needs to be in a separate case? Does it need to have a lock on it or can it just be a bag with a zipper?

In a conversation with an NRA Intructor in a classroom, the topic of transporting firearms in NJ came up. I went over my undestanding of what's required and what's not required. Then the instructor said what he believed to be the law for transport. Here's what he said that was different from what I am certain is NJ law.
- In a pickup truck of other type of car without a trunk or isolated storage area similar to a trunk, a long gun must be cased and the case must be locked or tied shut. Like with a luggage lock or a string.
- To transport a long gun, you must have your FPID on you and you can only transport the long gun to and from a range, shop, gunsmith, or some other place where use or possession is lawful.
- If the long gun is in the trunk, it still must be cased.
- He also said something about because of some sort of mistake made when the law was written, you don't need you FPID to transport a handgun, but the rules of storage in the vehicle and where it can be transported to are the same as a long gun.
I didn't argue the points. "New Guy to Handguns" VS "NRA Instructor" seemed like a pointless exercise. But the point of this post is that even among people who are pretty damned experienced, understanding of what the law is seems to be all over the map. And since in this case, I'm talking about an instructor, new people to shooting are getting information that, as far as I know, doesn't jive with the actual law.

Hello!
New member, did a lot of searching on this forum and others for an answer to my question. Looking to purchase my first firearm and, since I don't have a car, am trying to figure out how to get the gun to the range. Is it legal to travel to the range with a gun via public transportation (light rail, bus, etc) Does it matter if its a pistol or a rifle? Appreciate any help, at a loss right now.
Thanks!

Have you done any research into the cost and licensing requirements to run a repeater? We own some mountainous acreage in a very rural part of Virginia RIdge and Valley country that serves as vacation place and potential SHTF retreat. We get mediocre cell phone coverage (US Cellular only) and nothing else. I have thought of putting an antenna tower up the hill a ways (we own nearly to the top of the ridge. I wouldn't do it just for Ham or GMRS radio, but if I could get expanded cell coverage, and/or satellite internet (Dish or Starlink) as well, from one tower, I might go for it. ==== sorry, didn't intend to hijack the thread ====
