It really frosts my gonads that the NJ DMV won't allow "357MAG" plates... unless it had been used already by someone.

After all, some New Jersey drivers might wet their pants on seeing it and therefore cause an accident...

In just horsing around with that "License Plate Maker" site

http://www.acme.com/licensemaker/lic...98&r=927200959

I generated this one... (That site's NJ plates only go up to 1993). Clamp your legs together, NJ DMV!

How's this one, Ben Ezra?

I'm foolin' around too much... I'd better get to my mornin' chores... clean SKS, wash gun cleaning rags, take a break to fondle 1911, order ammo....

I saw a University of Alabama plate ARF223, but I think that it was just coincidence because there are a lot of plates in that range nowadays near campus.

are you a cutie pie?

No. I was responding to Ben Ezra's post on page 1, wanting to see a "QT314159" plate from North Carolina. I was going to generate one like that, but the site would only allow a five-digit "QT31416," which isn't as obvious as 314159.

I gotta go. I really gotta scrape that barbecue-like goo out of the SKS before it polymerizes into road tar.
 
I think XD-40 would make a good plate that only a gunny would get. Strangely, they wouldn't give me IB6-UB9 or NE1469. I can't imagine why...

So I guess having such a plate equates to having a firearm in the vehicle? :p

That ranks right up there with equating anyone with a NRA sticker as being armed at the present time. OOOh no can't make any mention of anything firearms or you'll be targeted as a bad, evil person adn be a target for thievery. :banghead:

I have Bisley as my plate on my truck and will be getting a similar one for my Jeep. Also have a couple Nascar stickers. Guess that means I'm a armed and drunk redneck. Oh but wait, I have a Thunder ranch sticker on the jep too so I'm an armed and trained drunk redneck. :neener:

So does this also mean anyone riding a Harley automatically has an arm full of tattoos and is a thug?

Maine's DMV site allow you to check the availability of a specif vanity plate and it'll give a picture of it if it is available.
 
Some Sublety

You could always have a plate that's true and misleading at the same time.

We have some members who "love to hate" the NRA.

They strongly support the GOA and/or JFPO, or even some other organization.

So, you could plausibly imagine such a person having a plate that says NRASUX, and yet the driver is very much an armed citizen.

In that same vein, you could have HATE9MM (shoots only .45 ACP), or for those who have a brand they despise, there's NOCOLT, even unto some particular feature that needs to be banished BADLOCK.

There's always the slightly misleading plate LUVDEER, which means whatever the driver says it does, or the slightly less subtle VENISON.

Hey, we have lots more. There's 10RING, 1MOA, SCOPE, RETICL, PEEP, DEADON, ACCURAT, PRECISE, 3240FPS, 55GRAIN, 22RIM, HOPPES, BRASS, IGNITE, STONER, HIPOWR, and so on . . . does it strike you that those look a lot like THR handles?

Golly, sounds like a rough day ahead of you there. :p

Anyway, I have an NRA sticker in the rear window of my car. I got it for free from the NRA for some reason (yeah, I'm a member) so I just slapped it up there. Life's too short to be too scared to express yourself.
 
I was passed by a white Scion XB ( my wife thinks they look like toasters) the other day, license plate was 357 SIG, and the plate holder said: Driver carries less than $20.00 worth of ammo. Except for the car, it was a good look!
 
My plate reads "GUNDOC". I help out at my buddies gun store and do a lot of gunsmithing for him and my friends. Also, my C.B. handle is "Doc" (my real job is as a truck driver) so it works out. Does it advertise? Maybe. But you only go around once in this life so you might as well enjoy it and not worry about the small stuff.

Some ideas
 
interestingly enough, years ago, I had the lic plate: 14 RKBA on my Illinois pickup truck. I had the plate for several years when a republican was in office. When the republicans lost out to the dems, mysteriously, my plate was revoked for 'no proof of insurance'. Kind of a guilty until proven inocent thing in Illinois. It was much easier to just reapply for a new plate, which is what I did.
I checked a couple of years ago and, 14 RKBA was still revoked for no insurance.

okay I am done for now
 
A couple of you have mentioned that maybe firearms-related plates were prohibited by your DMVs.

Monday AM, on one of my few well-deserved and long-overdue breaks, I'm going to check this out for Colorado.

For you others, do they give any rational reason for denial of gun-related plates, like the original poster's 357 Mag?"

If I'm a backyard mechanic, they wouldn't ban "WRENCH" or "PISTON" or if I were a Doctor, they wouldn't ban "SCALPEL," would they?"

Now I realize this is a very minor issue on its face, and we've got enough on our pro-RKBA things to deal with, so it's not an item for a "Million Gun Owner March" or anything, but I'm just curious about it.

So if you know offhand if there are any logical reasons presented for denial of such plates, I'd like to know.
