As a first offense, you won't do any time. You'll simply lose all your guns, and your right to own a firearm for at least the next 5 years, if not permanently. Carry in your home and on your property all you want. Don't do it in public.

It is a messed up thing that you can't ccw in nj but that's the officials we all elected. It is a nice feeling being able to carry concealed. Only way to get that feeling in this state is to become famous or a LEO.

So, you are telling me that I could get jail time if I built and drove this down the Parkway (assuming I made it to the Parkway) with the intended purpose of seeing how many SWAT teams would be dispatched.
