SPEAKERS

Evan Nappen, Speaker 3, Teddy Nappen

Evan Nappen  00:14

I’m Evan Nappen.

Teddy Nappen  00:16

And I’m Teddy Nappen

Evan Nappen  00:18

and welcome to Gun Lawyer. New Jersey carry is saving lives. That’s right. This is statistically a fact. Let me tell you right now. There’s a great article in BearingArms by Cam Edwards called “New Jersey Lawmaker Credits Concealed Carry for Crime Drop. (https://bearingarms.com/camedwards/2025/02/03/new-jersey-lawmaker-credits-concealed-carry-for-crime-drop-n1227550) BearingArms is a great news site for Second Amendment news, and Cam is a friend of mine. I love Cam. He’s a great guy. Anyway, Cam’s article here makes it clear and talks about Assemblyman Greg Myhre. He’s a Republican from Ocean County, which is interesting. We’re going to talk about Ocean County in a little bit.

Evan Nappen  01:15

But here’s a quote from Assemblyman Myhre. In a video released Wednesday, Myhre pointed to a sharp rise in concealed carry permits following the U.S. Supreme Court Bruen decision in 2022, which made it easier for New Jersey residents to obtain carry permits. “Today, more than 58,000 law-abiding New Jerseyans can  exercise their right to carry a firearm. And while some warned this would turn our streets into the Wild West, . . .” Don’t you always love that?

Teddy Nappen  01:55

Well, there’ll be blood in the streets.

Evan Nappen  01:56

Yeah, yeah, that’s the BITS, right? BITS –  Blood In The Streets. They always like to say, BITS. Blood In The Streets.  “. . . the reality has been far different, Myhre said. And in fact, it has. Because people no longer are going to be victims. They’re going to be defenders. Myhre went on to point out that New Jersey reported 778 gun violence victims. Whatever that means, right? Gun violence victims. Like victims of gun violence. Anyway, since they’re separating it out for gun violence, they reported 778 gun violence victims in 2024. A 16% decline from 924 the previous year. Marking a 15-year low, according to the governor’s office. Gun-rated fatalities dropped 20% to 152 last year. And meanwhile, the number of concealed carry permits surged by a mere 8,000%, folks! Eight thousand percent (8,000%) since the Bruen ruling. With over 57,000 permits approved post Bruen. So, there you have the real, true impact of “shall issue” in the historically gun rights oppressive state of New Jersey. It’s saving lives. It’s stopping and reducing gun violence victims and fatalities. It is absolutely not a surprise to me at all. Now, of course, the media, the lame stream, legacy media is quiet about this, but I’m glad to see it.

Teddy Nappen  04:06

Oh, don’t you mean the Government? Don’t you mean the Government-funded media now?

Evan Nappen  04:10

Yeah, right. The Government-funded media. And so, this is incredible, and it is impacting crime in the way that we all knew it would. Because law-abiding citizens possessing firearms is a deterrent to these criminal acts. And this is something that needs to be broadly publicized that it is effective in actually lowering crime. A lot more effective than the revolving door of the justice system. A lot more effective than defund the police. A lot more effective than the progressive left policies that have, in fact, increased crime. This has caused a decrease in crime, and this decrease would not have come about were it not for the empowerment of the Second Amendment by St. Thomas on the majority opinion in the Bruen decision that made it clear that we have a right to self-defense, and a right to arm ourselves outside the home. Its impact is lifesaving, and that is the good news about concealed carry.

Evan Nappen  05:39

Yet at the same time, ironically at the same time, we have a fascinating report that has come out called the “Rise Against Hate”. Now the “Rise Against Hate” is a website you can visit, and I suggest you do. It’s called RiseAgainstHate.org and go to their research section. So, it’s RiseAgainstHate.org/researchstudies. (https://www.riseagainsthate.org/research/studies) They did a new research release on “Permit-to-Carry Application Outcomes in New Jersey: A County-Level Analysis (2019-2024). Now this is following on the heels of the excellent work done by our good friend, John Petrolino. He was first to reveal the Attorney General of New Jersey statistics which showed a disproportionate number of blacks and other minorities being denied their right to carry and being forced to stay victims instead of defenders.

Evan Nappen  05:57

Now in this study, the researchers uncovered the significant racial disparities in permit denials. It revealed that black individuals are 10.38 times, over 10 times, more likely to be denied a permit compared to their white counterparts when adjusted for population. Let that sink in. Talk about institutional racism. Talk about the gun rights oppressors who are always claiming to somehow be the friends of the minorities. In fact, they are stopping them from exercising their Constitutional rights. Stopping them from being able to defend themselves. Stopping them from lowering the crime statistics even more

Teddy Nappen  08:03

Well, that’s because the Democrats want to get back to their roots. Because of the original gun control acts of our country that they try to base and justify creating more gun control laws.

Evan Nappen  08:16

Right! And stopping essentially. Originally, the oldest gun laws in New Jersey prohibited blacks and Native Americans from having guns. So, nothing’s really changed, other than the percentages and the new way that it gets presented in the way of oppressive gun laws regulating our ability to carry. Now this study is called “Rise Against Hate Permit-to-Carry Application Outcomes in New Jersey: A County Level Analysis (2019 – 2024).

Evan Nappen  08:51

Now let me tell you, this study is really great, because the authors and contributors are not in any way the folks that you would think are “pro-gun rights” researchers. Okay? We’re talking about Benjamin Shore of the American University, and his background includes the Baltimore School of Law, Juris Doctor candidate; Manaar Salama, University of California, Berkely with a BA in Data Science; Ellie Yang, Emory University, with a B.S. in Quantitative Sciences & Psychology; Daniel Mustafa, Rutgers University-New Brunswick, B.S. Computer Science& Data Science; Lexi Lay, Wake Forest University with a B.A. in Politics & International Affairs and Emory University, MM, Business Management, that’s a Master’s in Business; Clara Artley, University of Michigan. B.A. in Political Science and a B.A. Spanish Language; and Clara Mellul, Kohelet Yeshiva High School.

Evan Nappen  10:05

So, you have these people working, analyzing the data, and making it clear, on this county-by-county study, the incredible racism that exists in New Jersey. They outlined their methodology in this report. Their methods made it clear that there are significant racial disparities, and although black individuals make up a smaller percentage of the population compared to whites, the normalized denial rates and disproportionate denial ratios reveal that black individuals are disproportionately denied permits across New Jersey. Their methods include denial rate calculation for each race, black and white. They first calculate the denial rate in each county by dividing the number of denied applications by the total number of applications. You can dig deep into the numbers.

Evan Nappen  11:10

But there is a particular highlight of their findings that I think you will find very interesting, and that is as follows. Black people in Ocean County, New Jersey, face a disproportionate denial ratio of 52.6 despite being a much smaller population than white people. This means that black individuals are 52.6 times more likely to be denied a permit compared to their white counterparts when adjusted for their population size. So, the award winner goes to Ocean County for that denial rate. In Gloucester County and Cumberland County black applicants are 35.98 and 22.2 times more likely to be denied, respectively. This indicates that black individuals are facing systematic barriers based on race when applying for carry permits. Well beyond what would be expected based solely on population differences. That tells you just about all you need to know about New Jersey and gun rights oppression.

Teddy Nappen  12:40

I’m curious. Now, I’m curious, could a class action be made against Ocean County, where, you know, the Government is sued for discrimination? Could they sue for discrimination for carry permits?

Evan Nappen  12:54

It’s something that maybe even the Federal government should look into, the institutionalized racism of New Jersey’s carry permit system. Especially a carry permit system that has proven to save lives by letting individuals get “shall issue” carry permits, and yet, they are not allowing blacks that same advantage. It’s disgusting, and it is New Jersey.

Evan Nappen  13:26

Let me also point out that we have some exciting news. This is from an article from AmmoLand by the great John Crump. It says, “GOA and CNJFO”, which are two gun rights organizations, “sue New Jersey Over Hollow Point Ammo Ban.” (https://www.ammoland.com/2025/02/goa-and-cnjfo-sue-new-jersey-over-hollow-point-ammo-ban/) I’m really happy to see a lawsuit brought challenging New Jersey’s idiotic hollow nose ammo ban. Hollow nose ammunition should not be banned. I don’t know who imposed the Geneva Convention on New Jersey, but it doesn’t fly here. Because hollow nose transfers more energy to the target to give you the ability to stop the threat. Furthermore, it has less penetration than the highly penetrative Full Metal Jacket, etc., rounds. Especially when you don’t want to have rounds go through a bad guy into a good guy. I mean, it’s just stupid. It’s just flat out stupid. If you’re justified in using deadly force, you should not be limited in your choice of ammunition, especially when you’re looking for the ability to have greater stopping power and less risk of over penetration.

Evan Nappen  14:52

Nonetheless, from this article, it says that New Jersey residents are currently prohibited from using these rounds outside of the home for self-defense. So, what’s nice is this lawsuit is hitting directly on the Bruen ruling, and that is, we have a right to self-defense outside our home. We should have a right to have hollow nose ammunition outside our home. New Jersey tries to claim that these rounds are more dangerous than full metal jacket because the bullet expands on impact. But, of course, it’s the opposite. It may be more effective on the threat, but it is definitely not more dangerous to innocent persons and bystanders and to have around penetrate beyond its target. So, who are we concerned with here? We’re concerned with the ability to safely shoot and use the appropriate ammunition in defending our lives.

Teddy Nappen  16:03

Well, that’s by design, because they want to have people who accidentally, when the bullet penetrates and then hits an innocent bystander, so that way they can go after the individual. That’s their goal, let’s be honest.

Evan Nappen  16:16

Absolutely. So, this is more Jersey nonsense. I want to give kudos to the lawsuit. I believe they have an excellent chance of winning. Now we often get questions about hollow nose or hollow point ammo in New Jersey. Let me just give you a quick review. Hollow nose ammunition is lawful to purchase at the gun shop. It’s lawful to bring home. It’s lawful to have and use in your home. It’s lawful to have at the target range, and it’s lawful to use for hunting, if lawful for hunting. But outside of those exemptions, it becomes a felony level offense to possess. You’re looking at 18 months in States Prison for one bullet. And I mean bullet. It’s not even a cartridge. It is literally the bullet head that is prohibited.

Evan Nappen  17:18

I’ve had insanely ridiculous hollow nose cases. Including one fellow who had a dummy hollow nose bullet key ring that he was actually indicted for possession of a hollow nose on a dummy key ring. Another fellow that had one .22 round that had fallen out of a box ammo in the bottom of his glove box. He had parked in an area he shouldn’t have parked in, and they searched the vehicle. They didn’t find a gun, but there was just one round. They indicted him for a .22. You know, they had to make him a felon over this heinous offense. It’s so ridiculous, but it is legal in those places that I said. But outside of that is where you have a problem. You cannot carry hollow nose in your carry gun because you’re outside those exemptions, which is again, foolish. We should be able to have that ammunition, if we choose to, in our carry guns. In our carry guns that are saving lives in New Jersey, by the way. That’s what we need. It currently is ripe for a challenge, and I’m so happy that they’re pursuing that.

Evan Nappen  18:34

Let me give you a little news alert. This is exciting and actually a positive thing. It’s amazing what a new President can do. And what am I talking about? I’m talking about the CMP, the Civilian Marksmanship Program has resumed surplus 1911A1 pistol sales. (https://thecmp.org/cmp-resumes-surplus-m1911-m1911a1-pistol-sales/) That’s right, the CMP sells actual Government issued .45 1911s. They’re from the Government. They’re the real deal, authentic, and they sell them to civilians. Now when they’ve done this in the past, you had to submit your application, get a number, and you had to wait. They did round one, which went fine. Then they did a couple more rounds of getting people to apply, and then they did round four. But thanks to the senile sock puppet, no more pistols were available on round four. So, we waited a year or more.

Evan Nappen  19:52

As soon as President Trump became president, miraculously, lo and behold, the 1911 pistols became available again. And those that had applied for Round four, those orders have been fulfilled. I recently received mine. You’re allowed two (2) 1911s from the CMP for your lifetime purchase quantity. I now have my two, and I’m very happy. They are awesome guns at a fantastic deal, probably worth double as soon as you get them. The price for their top-of-the-line Government-issued 1911 comes in a beautiful box, a locking-type box, beautiful with Certificate of Authenticity from the CMP, their top-of-the-line one that they’re offering, that service grade, is only $1,250. They also have two grades below that.

Evan Nappen  20:48

And here’s the really exciting news. They’re no longer doing it in terms of rounds and numbers. Once they fulfill the Round Four applicants, which is rapidly happening, anybody can buy up to two (2) 1911s from the CMP in the same way that you would buy M1 Garand rifles. It’s no longer this quasi lottery or wait your turn. So, the pistols are flowing from the CMP. If you want to get yours, and I’d highly suggest you look into it, go to the CMP website, go to their website and click on the 1911 pistol sales, and you can take advantage of this. They ship to the dealer of your choice. And according to the CMP, they hold a substantial inventory of a variety of pistol grades, many ready to ship to consumers, and they expect to fulfill a significant quantity of orders. It’s free shipping by the way. You receive free shipping and handling. And they’re no longer doing that randomly generated number process. They’re accepting orders effectively immediately, and orders are on a first-come, first-served basis. I wouldn’t hesitate. Because even though they have plenty these 1911s, of course, do run out. So, it’s really worth getting it. And if you had a Round Four order pending, you’re even able to upgrade your purchase when they call you. You can upgrade if you put in for one gun and you’ve been waiting on Round Four. You can even tell them you want two guns, and they’ll ship you two, if you hadn’t got one prior. So, this is great for the CMP, the Civilian Marksmanship Program, making those great guns available again.

Evan Nappen  22:51

When you get your gun from the CMP, you can go to WeShoot and try it out. You can shoot it there at the great indoor range in Lakewood, New Jersey. WeShoot is a premier range. It’s where I shoot and Teddy shoots, my family shoots. You would love it. It’s a great range. They also have great training. And this week, they’re offering an HK SP5 as an “other”, which is a civilian version of the iconic MP5. The HK SP5 gives the unparalleled performance and reliability known with H and K. They also have the Springfield Army Hellcat Pro. They have those wonderful guns there. It’s a compact, yet powerful, pistol perfect for concealed carry. They have a Sig Sauer MCX, a modular and innovative rifle platform, built for versatility and high performance in any environment. And they have Radian Barrels, precision-crafted barrels for exceptional accuracy and durability. Check out these wonderful guns at WeShoot. They also have all the training you need to get your core competency certification, your CCARE certificate, and you’ll be able to have a lot of fun. They have a great website. Go to weshootusa.com and check it out. You’ll be glad you did.

Evan Nappen  24:19

Plus, don’t forget our good friends at the Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs. The Association is our stalwart defender of our gun rights in New Jersey. They have a full-time paid lobbyist, and they are bringing litigations covering the Carry Killer bill, the assault firearm ban and a large capacity magazine ban. We should be getting some results very shortly in those fights, and I’ll be assured to report all about those developments to my loyal listeners.

Evan Nappen  24:56

I want to tell you that Gun Lawyer is extremely popular, and I’m extremely proud of it. Our last numbers tell us we have 620,000 listeners. Believe it or not, it’s over 100,000 more listeners than MSNBC, which is saying something. It’s a voice that gets our message out about our love and dedication to the Second Amendment as we expose the gun rights oppressors and their activities to stop our rights.

Evan Nappen  25:35

Let me also mention my book, New Jersey Gun Law. It’s the Bible of New Jersey gun law. It’s over 500 pages, but it’s set up in a question-and-answer format with 120 topics. All Question and Answer. Easy to understand, so that even you can understand it. Just kidding, but you will understand it. Get  my book, New Jersey Gun Law. You can get it at EvanNappen.com. When you get it, scan the front cover with a QR code, and get in my private subscriber base so that you will get the updates. You’ll immediately be able to download the 2025 Comprehensive Update that fully updates the book. So that you’re ready to be on top of New Jersey’s crazy matrix of gun laws and not become a GOFU. That’s the purpose of the book. Now, Teddy, you have your Press Checks for today. What do you have to share with us?

Teddy Nappen  26:33

Absolutely. As we know, Press Checks are always free. So, I don’t know if anyone’s been paying attention to this or just wanted to watch the freak show that is the DNC for their elections. But they decided to elect, they wanted to learn from their mistakes, you know. They want to reach to the common man, to get back to the root issues that really, you know, unite us and win back the party. So, they decided to elect David Hogg. If you recall, he is an extreme anti-gun activist. He was one of the survivors of the Parkland School shooting and then graduated Harvard. But what I want to get at is how they have decided to double and triple down on their anti-gun agenda. This is an individual who posted on his X account that you have no right to have a gun. That is the message the Democrats are sending to the entire country.

Evan Nappen  27:40

So, according to David Hogg, you have no right to have a gun. No right to have a gun.

Teddy Nappen  27:43

Gee, no, right whatsoever.

Evan Nappen  27:45

Shocking. I guess he missed that little thing called the Constitution, huh?

Teddy Nappen  27:50

Yeah, and he is one who has pushed it where he is actually made statements like we need to treat guns the way we treated cigarettes 30 years ago. Making this comparison shows how we need to change the culture to get people away from guns.

Teddy Nappen  28:09

Yeah, I know, right? But it just shows they know no bounds, and they have not learned anything. Anyone who is a Democrat, who says they support the Second Amendment, you should not be a Democrat. Because what you are supporting is complete disarmament of our nation. Because they have elected this individual who, by the way, did a Nazi salute, a real Nazi salute.

Evan Nappen  28:09

Well, both of them smoke.

Teddy Nappen  28:17

Well, at least that’s fitting for his position on gun rights, right?

Teddy Nappen  28:46

I know. I know, right? At least the Democrats are getting back to their roots.

Evan Nappen  28:49

And that’s how they can continue their racist gun laws by the way.

Teddy Nappen  28:52

Yeah, and he’s not even. They try to make him like the Charlie Kirk, where, yeah, a very young guy, but he is not smart at all. He even failed to create a company. He tried to compete with My Pillow. Mike Lindell, you know. Hogg created “good pillow”, which then he removed himself as a founder. You know, real Egyptian cotton “Made in America”.

Teddy Nappen  28:59

Uh, huh. Well, he kind of suffocated himself with his pillows, didn’t he?

Teddy Nappen  29:13

Oh, big time. You know what actually.

Evan Nappen  29:29

Actually, a pillow can act as a suppressor. Can’t it?

Teddy Nappen  29:33

Hey, it can.

Evan Nappen  29:34

There might be, right? Couldn’t it? We could have gone after him for selling a gun attachment.

Teddy Nappen  29:38

He has a gun attachment. Yeah, a gun attachment.

Evan Nappen  29:40

Exactly, exactly.

Teddy Nappen  29:41

But, you know, he is not that smart, because he can’t even support his own arguments. As Lily Tang Williams, a woman who actually ran for, I believe, a state representative for New Hampshire. She took it to David Hogg. She was a legal Chinese immigrant who escaped Communist China, and came to the U.S. When she approached and asked David Hogg a question, she asked and explained, I escaped Mao Communist China, where they had killed 40 million people under their regime. Now, please, can you guarantee me as a gun owner that the U.S. Government will never become a tyrannical government? David Hogg, you know, being a very smart individual said, I cannot guarantee that. There’s no way I can guarantee that. Then the debate on gun control is over. I will never give up my guns, and you should go to China and see how gun control works under the CCP. That just, and like, you know, a mike drop moment there.

Evan Nappen  30:46

So, that’s great. She experienced full oppression, and oppression always seems to include the gun rights? That’s how it’s part of our history. That’s why our Founding Fathers made it the Second Amendment. The only thing above it is the First Amendment. So, it is of that importance for that reason.

Teddy Nappen  31:14

Yeah, and it’s actually pretty hilarious. Because the Democrats are trying to court the young voter. By the way, Trump won the young vote overwhelmingly. So, they brought in David Hogg, and they decided to do a panel where it’s like, hey, we know you guys really like Republicans, but can you tell us why? We want to connect with you. You know, a young individual of his demographic. He can’t figure out how to connect with his own demographic. Very good. Good job.

Evan Nappen  31:43

Well, I hope they stay with this, because it reveals their true self and what their intention is. Right now, our country is in a transition to a golden age. It’s extremely exciting every day to wake up to some other great news. Every day is like Christmas morning when Trump is President. It’s just amazing. And very shortly, we will be seeing even more on the gun rights front from President Trump, who also is believer and loves not only our country, but all our rights. He has particularly stepped up regarding the Second Amendment, including right away, as we discussed last time, getting rid of the Office of Gun control right away. Yep, that nonsense. And as he’s cleaning house and getting rid of these agencies, we’re going to see the rest of the Biden era gun rights oppression be wiped out of the Federal Government.

Evan Nappen  32:51

I think we’re going to see some great, great advances in our gun rights. Not the least of which will be concerning suppressors. The bill is already filed, and I think it’s getting traction, for hearing protection. We are seeing great strides regarding national reciprocity. I absolutely am convinced we will have it under President Trump. We should see the destruction of the almost 1 billion unlawfully registered guns that they secretly did through the ATF. On and on. There’s a lot of great things in the works, and we’ll be talking about them as they happen.

Evan Nappen  33:37

So, I have a question here from Ask Evan, from a great listener, Jeffrey. Dear Evan, thanks again for your help with the previous question of mine. I’m the guy with dual residency in New Jersey and New Hampshire that had trouble with an FFL transfer with a New Hampshire dealer, who shall remain nameless. The NH dealer that would not process the transfer. It took some doing, but I was able to get the firearm to the dealer you recommended. They were extremely helpful and processed the transfer without any issue. I’m glad to have been of assistance. And Jeffrey goes on. I have a similar question regarding purchase of suppressors, or perhaps more generally, NFA items. Obviously, I cannot purchase a suppressor in New Jersey. No, not at this moment. Bluntly reminding me of this, a representative of a suppressor company, which shall also remain nameless, recently refused to even talk to me about the topic of purchasing a suppressor since I carry a New Jersey driver’s license. So, I’m turning to you with the question. Am I able to use my New Hampshire residency to purchase and possess a suppressor in New Hampshire?

Evan Nappen  34:46

So, federal law is about the federal government. Now the federal government regulates the entire country. So, if you’re not going to have that suppressor in New Jersey but you’re going to have it in a place where it is lawful for you to have, I don’t know why the ATF would have a problem with that. In the past, I know of registrations of NFA items by New Jersey residents, who did not keep them in New Jersey. They kept them in a state where it was not prohibited. States that were not gun rights oppressive. States where the item was not unlawful. And so, I would highly suggest checking, not with the suppressor company, but with the ATF about how to make arrangements to do a purchase and possession in the lawful state of your dual residence. Because you are a resident of both states, and federal law recognizes dual residency under the gun laws. It’s in my book, and I have the code cited, pointing out the examples. And so, while you’re a resident of the other state where they’re not a gun rights oppression state, I don’t see why you can’t have NFA items there and that’s why you should go through ATF to find that out.

Evan Nappen  36:19

Now, one of the most popular segments on the show is the GOFU and that’s the Gun Owner Fuck Up. That’s where real people have made real mistakes that have cost them their time, their money, even possibly their freedom and their gun rights, because they’ve made mistakes. Very costly mistakes that you get to learn for free and not make them. And let me just say that this week’s GOFU goes to something that is critical,  especially in New Jersey. If you do not have to, I mean as required by law, if you are not required by law to surrender your guns, do not surrender them.

Evan Nappen  37:09

Now, what do I mean by this? Well, we’ve had many, many cases where individuals are conned by law enforcement to give up their guns for “safekeeping” when they had no obligation to do so. And once the Government gets their hands on your guns, they don’t want to give them back. Then what makes it worse is even if they try to bring a licensing revocation against you, there is a difference in the law between what allows you to get a license to acquire a firearm and the law that regulates possession of a firearm. So, we’ve had many cases where individuals could not be licensed, but they still were legal to possess their guns. But if the Government has your guns, then they cannot effectuate a transfer back to you unless you’re licensed. So, if you give them your guns and then they attempt to take your Firearm ID Card and take away your gun licenses, you can’t get your guns back.

Evan Nappen  38:19

This is Evan Nappen reminding you that gun laws do not protect honest citizens from criminals. They protect criminals from honest citizens.

Evan Nappen  38:19

But if you keep your guns and they run a revocation proceeding or try to stop you from possessing guns or you get denied on a license, they can’t then forfeit your guns. It’s actually case law that my firm created. It’s the case of M.U. That distinction is important. So, what the Government will often try to do is get their hands on your guns before they bring the licensing procedure so that they can screw you out of possession of any guns. This is why you should never give up your guns, never surrender your guns, if you’re not obligated under the law to do so.
