If you already thought that New Jersey was the most anti-gun state in the union, you’d be correct. A new package of unconstitutional and overreaching bills has just been introduced for consideration.
In response to New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin’s use of the state’s “nuisance law” to challenge businesses involved in lawful commerce through frivolous lawsuits, the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF) has re-opened its legal challenge against the state. The case was initially dismissed for lack of standing on the grounds that there was no immediate threat of the law being enforced.

In a state rife with 2nd Amendment rights abuses and subjective standards as it pertains to issuance of firearms-related permits, some police departments stand out for the great job they do. One such agency is the Mendham Borough Police Department.
The Koons/Siegel v. Platkin case has been at the Third Circuit since mid-2023. Now in 2025, this appeal only concerns the preliminary injunction, not the case’s merits.
