RE: Why are there such laws?!
He's referring the the FID card that us residents of the Peoples Republic of New Jersey have to posess to be able to purchase firearms. I wouldn't worry about buying from a pawn shop, just take your time and thouroughly look the gun over. Great deals to be had at the shops, like I said be patient and don't settle for just anything. The pawn shop guys most certainly know more about the guns and hunting than the people at Walmart.
