Default Re: New Jersey Appellate Court Says Americans Have No Right To Buy Handguns

As posted in the previous thread:

The actual court findings are here. There's more details as to the why and wherefore for the denial, trial court procedural errors, etc. It does not say that NJ citizens have no right to buy handguns but that pre-screening would not be unconstitutional.

As a point for intellectual exercise don't all transfers nationwide through an FFL require prior Government screening (NICS)? With few exceptions (ex: 2 generation bidirectional lineage), don't all handgun transfers in PA require prior Government screening (PICS)?

NJ's system is much more cumbersome and antagonistic than we have here in PA but, in the final analysis, they are similar in their essence.

I don't see, even with incorporation, that state pre-screening will be elimated any more than NICS, which already is subject to the Heller ruling, will be eliminated.
