Reply to comment by MyNameIsRay in Gun stockpile in hospital closet leads to $63K in fines from NJ health dept. by J-W-L

I agree it was less than ideal, but people do weird stuff when they are under duress. Who knows, I still cant pass judgment on him until I hear both sides. He should have known better though, than to have guns that were illegal according to state law, that might have been part of why he felt the need to handle it on his own terms.

People do do weird stuff under duress, but any responsible gun owner should know the options they have and the laws that apply.

Again, if the concern was a spouse/child doing something dumb with them, you can just pop a part out and disable them fully, and it would be totally legal to store those parts in his office closet.

I can't imagine a single scenario where this would be the only option.

Yea but a zip lock back full of harmless firing pins or a duffle fill of barrels is far more practical and safe than storing a bunch of unsecured firearms
