5 Reasons Why I Conceal Carry Every Day in NJ

- In this video I share with you the top 5 reasons why I have decided to carry a firearm every single day here in the state of NJ (New Jersey)
New Jersey and other blue states make it very difficult to exercise our 2nd amendment right to keep and bear arms, but I do everything in my power to conceal carry everywhere and every day that I am allowed to by law.
That is why it is important to get your concealed carry license in NJ and exercise your 2nd amendment right by concealed carrying every single day.

I carry every day because It’s lighter than carrying a cop every day.
LOL true thanks for the support as always!
More reliable also…
Jay, I could not agree more. I live in a a very safe, low crime area in NJ, yet I carry every day. I am in my 70's, and never imagined that I would be able to exercise my right to defend myself and my family with a firearm in this state. Thank you SCOTUS for restoring this right.
Great to hear Frank! Keep carrying and soon we will be able to carry everywhere
Hey Jay, One of the 40,000 patriots here in the people's republic of N.J. I'm a loyal GFH member but wanted to make you aware of a new 2A business in Northern N.J. Speed Shop Tactical. Great folks and allies to our cause. If you get a chance you should stop by and say hello to them. In West Milford.
Support those who support you
they made a new shop in North Brunswick also a few months ago
just followed on IG! Thanks for the support!
I want to carry mostly because it's my right.
I've always supported the Second Amendment, but it's through exercising it that we truly support it.
Awesome video and you’re 100% correct with your comments. I do train but without anyone, range time is probably 3 hours per month 1000’s rounds within that time frame. I go on the internet almost daily look at skill and law videos regarding concealed carry, I also feel naked without my weapon for self defence on me. Keep up the good work my friend and please stay safe
I agree and am on the same page totally
Thanks brother. Fellow NJ resident just a couple dozen miles south of your area.
Your story is a lot like mine; grew up in NJ all my life with no guns or military/PD in the family.
I began my firearms and 2A journey much for the reasons you did, particularly family. I moved out of my parents house and moved in with my girlfriend and realized I had something and SOMEONE to protect, and that’s why I bare arms.
Yes sir! Carry on my brother. Where at in NJ are you?
@@JayCostaUSA NE Morris County, just off of 287 between Parsippany and Butler (I’m sure you understand I’ll keep it a little vague on RUclips).
Self-Reliance and Responsibility! Great discussion. Thanks Jay.
thanks for watching and the kind words.
When seconds matter
Don’t worry
Police are minutes away.
I feel the same way when I don’t have my CCW I feel naked
You feel like a total sitting duck, right?
I live in Northern NJ in a town where the cops do an outstanding job. No crime that stands out on a regular. Quiet town and well patrolled.
I actually feel safe here and don't carry when I'm in my hometown.
Last week 4 (not 1) 4 guys jump out of a Honda 3 of them with guns and acosted a guy on one of our local streets. The guy ran, and the 4 went thru his car looking for whatever. I think im cured of not being prepared in my lovely home town.
May I ask what town?
@@louismanetas9034 Garfield NJ
@@jimbo4260 plenty of rough areas not too far from Garfield. I wouldn’t be surprised if it happens more, unfortunately.
@jimbo4260 Grew up in Garfield, it certainly has changed.
It can happen anywhere! I know Garfield well.
The more good guys the better, that line hit home for me. Been on the fence about conceal carring. Your video has definitely movated me Jay.
We cant let them dissuade us Mark! Thanks for the kind words and carry on! Where are you located?
@@JayCostaUSA Morris County NJ
As an illegal gun owner and carrier, I too have those same reasons...
I was born and raised in NJ. Left NJ at the age of 59. Now live in TN for the last 23 years. Have been carrying for 22 years and I carry every day. I train at least once a year. I use to shoot in IDPA. I go to the range once a month. My children still live in NJ.
Born and raised Jersey gal here. Live in Bergen County. I am glad that I came across this video. I was contemplating on getting my CCW permit, watching this has given me more reasons to get it. I have always advocated for the 2nd Amendment that I got my husband, who hated the fact of having a firearm at home, to have one. Taught my kids who are now adults wanting to get their FID. Thanks for the video!!
You are welcome. I am in Bergen County as well. Thanks for watching and carry on!
I have been carrying a weapon in this state for more than 30 years. several jobs allowed me that privilege until the June 22 decision on Bruen case. you are right on point i try to encourage more women to apply. anything i can do to help i'm here for support keep it up.
Amen brother , I mainly went and got my ccw for my church family . To protect women and children to potential evil . ✝️🙏🏼
God bless you and carry on! Are you in NJ?
@@JayCostaUSA yes in Camden County Voorhees area
Remember, you are the first one on the scene of your own disaster from a CRIMINAL. CC should be allowed anywhere the Police can carry. The only places they don't carry are jails and some federal buildings where they PROVIDE lock boxes. Other than that citizens who want to carry should be able to ANYWHERE they could encounter a CRIMINAL doing his thing. THEY need to know its not one sided anymore. The other thing that needs to be addressed, civil law. When a CRIMINAL is the aggressor, and their actions cause them to be injured or killed, the person defending themselves should be immune from civil litigation from the CRIMINAL or their SURVIVORS.
That is definitely a 100% Fact, that the criminal needs to stop getting defended by the bullshit law and court system. The person that was defending his or herself should 100% be free of any charges. It's pure INSANITY how the non criminal or non aggressor has to go through all the bullshit litigations or charges, when the criminal was in the wrong to begin with and the problem wouldn't have even happened if it wasn't for the criminal in the first place. Pure psychotic that this even has to be argued about.
agreed! are you in NJ?
Born in Brooklyn, spent most of my life in nj now I’m in mn. Have been carrying for over 15 years now. Never thought I’d see the day that nj allowed ccw. Kudos for exercising!
Thank you! How is Minnesota with 2A?
@@JayCostaUSA pretty good mostly . We’ll see how it goes after November tho 🙃
I don't carry every day because of work and the carry killer bill, but today I had to go to camden early in the morning so my g19 was my passenger. I do carry as often as I can.
Carry on my friend! I would carry in Camden too
It’s tuff to carry in a state that doesn’t have “Stand your ground” Law
Proud one of the “last man standing” in NJ. Stand and fight. I love America, God and some Family.
God bless, brother
All day everyday Carry for me here in NJ! I am fortunate my Town's issuing authority is a firm believer in 2A rights
Awesome, where at?
Listening to this and just realized I’m not wearing my watch!
Where I live in suburban NJ, most of the time, there is very very little chance of needing a firearm to defend yourself. In fact, there is probably more risk that I’ll have a medical emergency (than be attacked). In the event of such a medical emergency, I would suddenly have to worry about how to safely rid myself of the firearm on my person.
Jay I agree with you 1000%
Thanks I greatly appreciate the support!
God bless you. Took me 3 years in nyc to get my appt for just a practice permit. Ny said fu. Move to Florida got it in 30 days. Would not go a day without carrying. Won’t leave home without it. Will not return to blue states just for that reason.
Thanks and God bless you!
If you carry anywhere, make sure to get self-defense insurance or a CCW membership plan. It will cover you legally and financially, if you need to use your firearm for lawful self-defense. And of course, train, train, train. Isn't your life and the life of the ones you love worth it?
New sub here, this is a really good video, Ty Jay.
For 400+$ you gotta carry everyday just to get your moneys worth out here in Jersey.
It’s ridiculous how much they charge here for CCW Application plus 200$ for CCW Qualification Course. For only to be valid for 2 years.
Wow in pa no class required and it's only $20 or $30 every five years that is ridiculous
@RedDott. it's a democratic deterant and cash grab. Democrats are not your friends. Remember that. Go Red all day.
@@timothyharrell7253 yeah I hear that! I went to Pa and got mine as well as an out of state resident. Just paid 20$ at the sheriffs office picked it up 2 weeks later after the background checks good for 5 years. 😑
True
Amen. I always say sometimes you gotta be the Lion so you can be the Lamb. Deu 30:19 I place before you Life and Death , Choose Life 🙏🏾
Amen my brother. Carry on
Carrying a firearm in New Jersey is like extreme sport.
Ha, true. Are you in NJ also? Did you get your CCW permit?
police are not obligated to ensure the safety of the public
true. thanks for watching
I live in central Jersey and I’ve been seriously considering getting my CCW. I have a huge issue with the cost NJ charges to exercise your 2nd amendment right. It’s BS! Anyway, I’ve been taking with an instructor at my gun club and getting ready to start the process.
As some others have said about their safe neighborhoods, Sam Manzie lived in my hometown. If you don’t know who that is look up the story.
Go get your CCW license! Exercise your rights!
Wow I love this!!!! I am a believer, I also live in NJ and I carry everyday. I carry while I am in church as well and my head is constantly on a swivel.
Same here, brother. Where in NJ are you located?
@@JayCostaUSAI am in south Jersey, Burlington County
NJ ain't safe anymore. I live in South Jersey and is getting bad everywhere,I also carry all the time
NJ is one of the safest states.
@bgcheese it was NOT anymore. I lived here for 43 years, and it is going down thanks to Murphy and his stupid gun laws
@@gordoelkis huh NJ has one of the lowest crime rates in the nation. Crazy thing is that most states that have the highest crime rates has lax gun laws.
NJ is rated pretty safe, but i always felt it to be a little biased because the 2 major urban cities are right outside of our borders. So the crime there is not in our crime stats, yet we are affected by it.
I carry every day because I want to express my freedom and autonomy. It my right to protect myself and my family and I make sure I do everyday. The same here when I forced to not carry I feel naked. I also have started pick where I go based on if I can carry or not. I think everyone who is responsible with firearms should carry as often as possible. Cuz when you least expect it you will need to use it.
Same here, carry on! Are you in NJ?
@@JayCostaUSA yes I live in the Atlantic City area
500% agree with this Jay, once again fantastic video.
Hey thanks Avi! Much appreciated
I live in a very safe county/town. Here’s why I carry every day. I commute to work, but so do criminals. And just like you said, being a father and a husband changes everything.
100 percent. Carry on and thanks for watching!
You commute in a car or truck, right? If so, that is a deadly weapon that you can use in self-defense against the threat of deadly force. Yeh, a firearm may be a sexier weapon, but a car or truck can be quite deadly when used in this way.
Red County Gloucester Resident here with CCW, everyday.
carry on !
Get a app that shows you local news and you see how unsafe your area is.
Bro that’s a fact!
True!
Wow solid points! God bless ya!
Thanks so much God bless you
Very reasonable!
Being in LE in NJ for over 40 years and also having a retired carry permit and knowing the current mentality in NJ I have some advice: 1. Shut up. When you post on social media you put yourself on the wrong people's radar. Nobody needs to know except you and your family. 2. Just because you have a CC permit you have NO LE powers. Being retired neither do I. 3. If Evan Nappan Esq. has any literature available read it. He is the top firearms attorney in NJ. Be aware of what you can and can't do prior to finding yourself in handcuffs. It is not a stand your ground state. Gob Bless
Within 30 seconds on the internet it's discovered you're a realtor, your on LinkedIn and where you reside. A person with nefarious motives now has all the information they need for 15 minutes of RUclips game. 🙄
uh yea, so? All of that info is public. I do agree that I have no LE powers, where did I say that I did? But yes I agree that if I am going to do this, I need to know all that I can and cannot do. Evan Nappen is a great resource. I am not here for 15 minutes of RUclips fame, I make RUclips videos because I enjoy it and have a lot to say. But your advice is well taken. Thanks
Jay, What CCW insurance is available in NJ? Some of the ones advertised don't cover NJ - I don't k now why! 🤔
You could have skipped the list after mentioning you live in a blue state. I always like guns but had no reason to spend the time and money to get one. I live in a blue state that had minor, by riot standards, riots spawned by police interactions. The State mandated the rioters be left alone.. After Bruen and the summer of love, I made the decision to arm myself. Now, I'm taking a friend to their CCW class, where I will renew mine.
Bringing more people into the 2A community is always a great move
Who should replace Murphy to make this state more 2A friendly?
@domenickmirkovic5057 I can possibly be wrong but I thought I read that Bill Spadea was Pro Second Amendment and conservative common sense values. I will be voting and hoping that Bill Spadea wins if that's the truth, because new jersey needs to get rid of all these JUNK people in office that just make the state constantly worse with lunatic psychotic policies and flat out stupid idiotic policies as well. This tyranny needs to STOP ASAP. 🙏
Anyone red

thanks a lot I appreciate it
I never thought about owning a gun that was until I almost got robbed by two guys while just simple walking my dog , just to think that something like that could happen again while been out with my wife and family that was wake up call
My father was an NYPD Sergeant in the 1970's.
We lived on Staten Island at the time, and crime was very low in our neighborhood and the surrounding neighborhoods.
Still, my father carried every day.
Even when walking our German Shepard in the wood behind our house.
And my father was ahead of his time if you will.
He worked out, was a blackbelt in karate - and had his own karate school where he taught the NYPD.
He was even featured in the Sunday Daily News for it.
My father could take care of himself and gave off the image of a guy you don't mess with.
Anyway...
I always remember what he said about carrying, which was essentially "What if something happened that I could have prevented if I had my gun on me?"
@@Incomudro1963 I feel that man 🙏
@@espadafull Yes, it made such simple and logical sense.
At 60 years old, right now - I only (finally) acquired my first firearm about four years ago.
I literally just received my IWB holster yesterday and some FBI qualifying targets today.
I'm about to begin the process of training myself for concealed carry.
God bless you. Carry everywhere you can! Are you in NJ?
@@JayCostaUSA If you are replying to me Jay, yes - I'm in central NJ.
I’m with ya here in MD. 💯
How is MD with 2A rights?
@@JayCostaUSA not great, but maybe just a little bit better than NJ
While the risk of needing a firearm is extremely low where I live, whenever I go into NYC, I’m confronted with the feeling I should be carrying, but I cannot legally do so. How many people from NJ illegally carry in NYC?
Jersey resident here and I carry as much as I could legally.
Nice keep carrying! Where in NJ?
@@JayCostaUSAI’m in Hackensack
Secret service failure. Perfect example to carry.
If they cant protect a president, why would they ever protect you or I?
@@JayCostaUSA it means ccw for your life. Dont depend on others.
I live in sj don't have my ccw yet but God for bid if you had to use it in self defense you will be going to jail for murder in this fucked up state
Get your CCW and dont let them dissuade you!
@@billm1842 I agree bill. I will never understand for the life of me, how the CRIMINAL or anybody for that matter that is starting and doing the WRONG DOING,.. gets defended in a situation where the ACTUAL GOOD PERSON who reacted in self defense gets in trouble... IT WILL NEVER MAKE SENSE... but that's the point of what the tyrants want while doing tyranny.. It's so infuriating that people in office "think" they are authority masters. THEY WORK FOR US, NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.. God Bless be well 🙏
Amen
You must be referring to Still Water NJ
Great video
Thanks a lot I appreciate it
Solid video 👍
Thanks Domenick!
Do permits in Pa. From what I hear you really have to watch where you carry in Jersey that have stupid carry laws.!
When is life going to go sideways??? Last time I checked, active shooters give zero warning when they activate their insanity.
One should always carry, loaded and often. I carry in NYC and getting my non residential for NJ. And Utah.
Tight holsters folks- took me 14 months.
I live in New Jersey close to Newark the client is going up in my the Town and they make it hard for citizen to live here to get a carrying permit the town I live in very hard but they don't say nothing how about the drug they do not got caught in permits and they walk the streets with guns all the time I think citizen like me should be able to take a course and how to handle a gun without needing a gun permit I should be able to have a gun without having a permit
Don’t add to their rhetoric that this is the safest state in the country
It’s not ✌️🇺🇸
Definitely not what it used to be
Hey Jay, Any relationship to Mark or Wayne Costa?
carry on. i do
Yes sir! Carry on brother
i have to go into nyc weekly, how do i get a nonresident ccw for that state
Mostly ppl carry bc they wish they were cops and do not have the proper training to conceal carry.
how do u deal with sensitive places?
Leave it in my car locked up
@@JayCostaUSA lol kappa
Great 👍 video
thanks my friend!
@JayCostaUSA just a question about us law shield your thoughts
Hey im a new conceal to carry member from chicago
Welcome. How is Chicago with getting a ccw permit?
@JayCostaUSA well we are a shall issue state so it's not extremely hard but you have to do your part by meeting the criteria and the rest is fairly easy just happy I was approved
🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thanks for the support

Carry on, carry often, carry everywhere
That is it! Thank you and God bless
The only one that’s going to help you is you
100 percent.
Weren’t you a police officer until recently
Not me
I don’t know if it’s worth it to renew every two yr. and pay that amount of money. I’m tired of all the hassle and rule changes that only demand more and more.
@@hiramr1153 blame murphy. He jacked it up to deter people. Remember that and don't vote blue in nj. Democrats. They are the ones responsible for all the anti gun bills and fees....vote republican!
They do that on purpose so that they get people to do and say exactly what you just said right there! And so that you give up.. Smh... And I'm not saying you should or you shouldn't, do what you choose, that is your RIGHT and personal choice.. But don't let them manipulate, deter or stop you from your God given unalienable/inalienable RIGHTS.
Dont let them dissuade you! Do it and vote him out!
@@JayCostaUSA thanks for your informative vids, content and time on youtube. What part of nj are u in? You don't have to give specifics, but I was just curious because I feel like nj has somewhat of a mixture in beliefs depending what part you're in. I actually feel like nj is mostly red but then you have the more population in the "blue city areas" but even there I've seen alot of red... it's the brainwashing media and their Lies and manipulation of "free" handouts and stuff to keep the Sheep voting blue.. And then of course the cheating/rigging is another thing smh.. But yea anyways I was just curious what area you're in because I just started watching and coming across your videos. You have good informative content and thank u for that. God Bless 🙏
I like this guy, I wonder where he lives in NJ. I live in Sussex, no need to carry out here.
@@clamhandler8203 never say never......
The point is to exercise your rights!!!!
Im in Bergen. I would carry out in sussex as well. Love cherry ridge range out there!
You can always use a gun in Sussex County for the black bears, mountain lions, and coyotes.
What church do you go to?
R.C. Church in my area
When we get a republican governor, I'll get my ccw. Even though I live in a Red county, I can't bring myself to be comfortable. There's something that everyone keeps overlooking; even though ccw is now "legal", our rights to self defense are somewhat questionable. We do not have castle doctrine in NJ, the most basic of rights, to protect ourselves while in our HOME, where WE, have the legal right to be. You understand the rest. Thanks for all you do.
You should consider attaining it even if you have no plans to carry. Its our right. The more we get the more it will be accepted. Also, based on what you said about home invasion. If you rightfully protecting your family from harm you will be fine. Better then all being in the newspaper with bad news. And may that never ever happen 🙏
It is your RIGHT! Dont let Murphy and others dissuade you from exercising that god given right to defend yourself.
@@JayCostaUSA thank you and if I apply for it I’ll post it.
Savant speak
thanks!
Once you spoke about religion I signed off. You lost me with bullshit
So be it. God bless
Hello Jay I found your channel and love it brother. What range you go to in NJ?
Gun 4 hire, RTSP? Let me know.
Thanks man. G4H is closest to me so I am a member there. If you ever see me say hello!
Oh boy you’re hearing voices. 😂
