A retired teacher is facing 10 years in prison and the loss of his state pension for possessing a flintlock pistol that may not have been fired since George Washington was alive, his attorney told FoxNews.com on Wednesday.

Another reason to not live in NJ.. As if we need another reason..

Moved all my guns outta there decades ago....I could see it now, milkmanjoe caught with sixty seven mixed firearms.......never to be seen again. Good thing I saw the future and bailed.

Christie is on the fundraising/exploratory trail. He is a Republican, who isn't very gun friendly. If he runs for President he'll be forced to eat negative gun thoughts....but it looks like he heats everything anyway. I happen to like some of his stuff....and he is tough. Gotta give him that.
