National Reciprocity

[Bushmaster]

I'm hoping that the National Reciprocity act gets passed. And what would that mean to the communist state of New Jersey?

What it would mean is jersey will not comply with it, or if forced to it will still not change the fact the this state is a will NOT issue state for residents.

Isn't a resident permit needed first to have reciprocity in other states?

[stratocaster]

It would only mean that if you are allowed to carry in another state, you are allowed to carry here as a nonresident, not as a resident.

Yes, but here's the rub, since we can't get CCW's in NJ as residents because of the unconstitutional "justifiable need" clause means even if this passes, we still can't carry, as I think this bill would make non resident CCW redundant.

The way that the Reciprocity act is worded if your state restricts you from getting a concealed permit then a non-resident permit is justified to carry in your state.

makes no difference, NJ,CT,NY and CA have said if it passes they will challenge the legality and sue. So don't hold your breath that the bill will even see the light of day, let alone be voted on.

They sued ObamaCare--something I think is clearly unconstitutional--so I'd like to see them sue fighting something that could be construed as very constitutional.

Not today.

 

I have non-resident in three states that is reciprocal in about 30-or-so other states.  Interestingly, prior to going constitutional carry, NH changed their laws to require a permit in your home state before getting a non-resident permit.  It was challenged and ruled unconstitutional (NH state).  The reason was because it mean that NH laws were dependent on other state laws.  Most states hate that.

Here’s your answer. McConnell is hoping that if he ignores the bill long enough, it will just go away.
