Milford, NH -(Ammoland.com)- Recently we reported on New Jersey Governor Christie’s, claims he is a pro gun presidential candidate: see Governor Christie’s Newest Anti-Gun Sleight Of Hand.
The following is more on Christie’s bogus “pro gun” claims.
On December 12 2015, Mr. Roubian was interviewed by Granite Grok. Alex spoke in detail about the anti-gun Christie record.

Here are some of the greatest hits from the Christie anti-gun record. As Governor of New Jersey:
- Never addressed the rampant delays and illegal additional requirements at the municipal police level for the mere permission to only purchase a handgun.
- Could have waived the NICS requirement for those issued a permit within the past 5 years that already required a background check and paid a fee.
- Refused to appoint a pro-gun US Senator upon the death of anti-gun US Senator Frank Lautenberg. Instead Gov. Christie took the unprecedented step of calling for an election thus handing the job to ultra-liberal, anti-gun Corey Booker at a time when the country desperately needed more pro-gun U.S. Senators.
The Bottom line:
Gov. Christie has not and will not change. One Christie supporter said “there will be no gun bans in a Christie administration”. Maybe not, but there won’t be concealed carry recognition or repeals of other anti-gun laws either. We here at NHFC wonder why these so called pro-gun folks from New Jersey are so enamored with their anti-gun governor that they are trying hard to convince free Americans to support him.
The Record (Hackensack, NJ) reports that: “It’s a record that Scott Bach, executive director of the Association of New Jersey Rifle and Pistol Clubs, has commended as an “excellent record” on guns.”
That might be “excellent” in New Jersey.
But in New Hampshire we prefer that people not face jail time for merely possessing a firearm.
Sure, Christie pardoned some of those “offenders”, but that was only after they were arrested, tried, convicted and likely spent tens of thousands of dollars on attorneys. These things just don’t happen in Free America. Scott Bach might just suffer from “Stockholm Syndrome”.
In the same article The Record also wrote:
“Christie’s record as a New Jersey moderate on guns looms as one of his biggest vulnerabilities in New Hampshire, where he competes for the Republican presidential primary nomination. New Hampshire is a staunch, pro-gun state where owners’ rights are enshrined in the state constitution.”
The reports of otherwise law abiding gun owners going to prison in Chris Christie’s New Jersey for conduct that is lawful in most other states just keep coming in. On Monday, Andrew Pfitzenmayer was sentenced to 3 years in state prison for the victimless “crime” of carrying 2 handguns in his backpack while he looked for office space for his business. He said that he had the guns with him because he was going to the range after the search for office space.
No one was threatened or shot and no property was damaged. But in Chris Christie’s New Jersey that doesn’t matter: Andrew Pfitzenmayer is treated the same as a rapist! Sadly, he will spend time in state prison with hardened, violent criminals.
Gov. Christie could have directed his handpicked attorney general to NOT prosecute Mr. Pfitzenmayer; because justice would not have been served by sending a law abiding business owner to prison.
But anti-gun Chris Christie did not and now Mr. Pfitzenmayer will be a resident of the New Jersey State Prison.
That pretty much sums it up — and we here at NHFC will continue to inform you, the abiding firearms owners about the anti-gun Christie record.
As Alan Rice reported yesterday, there are other, more Second Amendment friendly candidates running for president.
Continue to watch your email because we will be sending more email updates on other presidential candidates very soon.

He pardoned a guy for transporting hollow point bullets illegally. He’s pro gun when it comes to criminals.
Semper Fi……..
As you said, “the NRA is a political lobby”………
It is on you to make your voice heard by your fellow NJ citizens……it is on you to pass the word on to others that their vote is valuable and should not be wasted on legislators who talk out both sides of their mouths on issues of Rights.
It is on you, to become politically active and make the changes to NJs gun laws………!!
I don’t know who wrote this, but they need to check their facts. I live in NJ and there isn’t one day-to-day pro gun citizen here that thinks CC is pro gun. Regarding organizations, NJR&PC is an off shoot of NRA. Yes NRA produces and promotes some fine gun safety and training, but both of these organization, to me do little to help NJ legislatively. They have thrown their hands up in the air and given up. So it doesn’t surprise me that the NJR&PC executive director is supporting him. CC doesn’t have a chance in the presidential election.

Christie is full of crap. NJ is a cesspool of gun control and fatboy does nothing about it. Don’t buy his BS.
That fat excrescence is proof that what used to be a conservative, patriotic organization, the GOP, has deteriorated into what we call RINOs. Today’s GOP and the Democrats are the two wings of the same loathsome socialist carrion-feeder.
Should have been fired with bridge gate
That pig must eat everything in sight !
Fatso is suddenly worried about the republician voter, which generally carries,/ owns firearms still a loudmouth liar.
