Still, your post contains some inaccurate statements of the law. You are allowed to hunt in NJ with slugs and sabots--I'm going for deer with my Mossberg 695 slug gun, complete with sabots. Don't know where you heard otherwise. And for you hunters, NJ has probably the most liberal bag limits in the country, largely because we've got deer all over the place. In most of the state, you can kill an UNLIMITED number of antlerless deer on one permit, even taking two deer at a time, and you can hunt till Groundhog Day.
Also, Geno, you are allowed to have hollow point bullets in NJ, subject to the same possession rules for your gun. For example, you can have hollow points in your home, at your business, or at the shooting range. Just don't carry one loose in your pocket at the mall, or you've technically broken the law.
No doubt we've got problems here in Jersey with 2d amendment issues, but you Joisy bashers, well--you've never been to our beaches or our mountains. There's lots of nice spots in the crowded Garden State--and some pretty good hunting.
I used to live in NJ, but I escaped to Texas about a year ago. It felt great to cross over the Delaware Memorial Bridge and see the "Entering Delaware" sign. As soon as we passed it, I told my wife that she'd no longer have to bail me out of prison. She asked why, and I told her that I had so many "high capacity" magazines that I could have spent more than 150 years in prison (at 5 years per). BTW, I didn't even think about the hundreds of rounds of hollow point and AP that I had in ammo cans in the trunk!!!
I'm glad to live in a free state. I miss friends & family, plus a lot of good eating places, and just the familiar surroundings. However, I suppose that East Germany had similar things for its subjects when ruled by the Communists, and I'm sure that most people who left are also glad.
NJ is a lost cause, from the standpoint of freedom (esp. for us fans of guns). Gene - get out, before they build a wall and patrol it with dogs and goons in coal scuttle helmets.
