New Orleans guns stores

Magazine Pawn is (or was) a licensed dealer. I bought my 1894 Winchester there about five years ago and did a 4473.

I was wondering how N.O. came to have the lowest level of crime in the country.

LOL! I was in New Orleans East two weeks ago and almost every street light is shot out.

Lodwick Small Arms in Algiers
He is a forum member JLodwick

I know him. He had to jump through some major hoops to get his FFL. Orleans parish blows.

That was not something I expected to read, especially about a parish in LA. Everyone botches about California, but just how different from California is this crap?

Its interesting how the mob thugs don't rush in gun stores and bust open show cases and run out. Ya think the so called leaders would notice this.

They do not do it much in the South Period. I wonder why!

I will not provide proof of vacinnation. I will not wear a mask while eating. I can't carry enough weapons to protect myself. I will not go to N O.

Interesting read, thanks for posting the link to the regulations. Likely unconstitutional but apparently no one has challenged them. The city is torn up for repairs and otherwise falling apart, not a good time to be here.

unfortunately I have to go to Metairie this weekend. Fortunately, I'll be well armed and hyper-vigilant the entire time I'm there. I may have to go Marrero, which might mean passing through NOLA. good god.

Take the Huey Long or the Luling Bridge and Go up 90. Then you never have to go through New Orleans.

 

[KDerekT83]

Considering it.

It's probably cheaper to open and operate in surrounding parishes than it is to set up shop in N. O. and Orleans parish. Thus going thru the process of challenging this is not worth time or money. I'm sure the NRA, NSSF, or other organizations would have challenged this long ago if they felt it was worth it. I mean drive 5 or 10 minutes and you can be in Jefferson.

Im sure the criminals go outside of N.O. to buy/steal their weapons

That's exactly what they do. I just moved away from my life-long home parish of Ascension. That's where the criminals "buy" (read: Steal) their guns. From the law-abiding residents there. Then they run back into their NOLA rat-holes to hide.

Since Hurricane Katrina, both the population and crime has exploded in Ascension Parish. Since Baton Rouge voted in the current leftist mayor, it has only gotten much worse. People are fleeing BR's out-of-control violent crime - to Ascension and Livingston Parishes. And Baton Rouge has also joined the top 10 most violent cities in America list along with Shreveport and New Orleans. That's about half of the state's major cities.

Congratulations, Louisiana. One of the smallest states in America now has 3 of the 10 most dangerous cities in the country. And the governor vetoed the Constitutional Carry law this past year. This is exactly what happened to Virginia. That was 12 years ago and that state is only now starting to turn around their hard slide to the left.

My mom has almost 40k in equity in her house. I can't for the life of me convince her to sell it and move out that turd dumpster of a city.

Almost? Yeah, I believe that. Their aim's not so good.

I am convinced that City people have Stockholm Syndrome. I have Aunt and Uncles in New Orleans and Los Angeles. Neither will move even thou their homes are worth millions there. They could buy a small ranch in the Country for what they could sell their city homes for.

There were more gunshops open in Orleans during the 90's. One of them moved from the East to Jefferson Hwy because thier sales were too low in Orleans.
Cash America Pawn in Gentilly was the last one that I knew of that sold firearms. First the company forbade the pawn or sale of MSRs, then the location stoped selling handguns(2 years ago), finally they stopped selling everything a year ago. They told me that sales declined and were much better in Jefferson. They will only pawn firearms now.
Professional Security Training in Mid-City(close to my house) has a private 20 yard indoor range for training security guards and some of the state commissioned agencies. They have an FFL for sales by appointment to police and security only(I bought a Model 10 from them a few years ago.

Just say NO to N.O.

Now I know.
