"These 10 bills:"

Of the 10 bills he signed, 6 are neutral, 2 are actually good for gun owners in New Jersey, and 2 are arguably bad, but they're bad on a Federal level.

Of the 3 he vetoed yesterday, ALL were bad for gun owners. He surprised me with a flat-out veto of the Barrett .50 BMG ban. There are only a handful of owners in the state -- in part because there aren't many ranges that are long enough and that have enough of a backstop to allow them. There wasn't any real downside for him to sign the ban, and he vetoed it anyway.
