That's why I said, "Even I..."
Contrary to popular belief, I do own some bottom-feeders, although they are outnumbered in my safe by a ratio of greater than 3:1.
I keep them separated so they don't infect my wheelguns.

Why are you confused? That is the consent for a mental health check. If you have lived in the state they have the means to search. If not, they need to know where to reach out to in order to do the check.

P2P is shorthand for "Permit To Purchase"
If you insist on getting another bottom feeder, Tony13 certainly has the right idea. While purists may insist that ALL 1911's should be .45's, a 9mm 1911 is a thing of beauty. Even I have one...
Adios,
Pizza Bob<---still thinks you should go for the 9mm revolver

I never had to deal with a NJSP barracks as an issuing entity, but if I am understanding previous posts - your permits will be printed at NJSP headquarters in West Trenton and then they may wait for inter-agency mail to reach your specific barracks, What I'm saying is, it may still take a considerable amount of time before you actually have permits in hand. Be patient.
From what I hear, a remedy to the above is in the works. No more paper permits - electronic ones. Once you have been approved all a dealer has to do is download your electronic permit to complete the transaction. Not sure how/if they are going to integrate NICS into that, but it is another step in the right direction. If we have to live with this draconian permitting system, they can, at the very least, make it efficient. I would guess that a "state mandated system" and "efficient" are probably oxymoronic.

No revolver, regardless of PC or otherwise, will have a match grade trigger out of the box. That's part of the fun of owning a revolver. Plus, even if it was a "good" trigger, it is vastly different than anything you'll encounter on a semi-auto - even the vaunted PPQ.

Johnny B hit it - just a cannelure to prevent the bullet from being pushed farther into the case, thus increasing pressure. Happens with rounds that are chambered multiple times. Perfectly safe to reload.

12 hours ago, Bomber said:This is why I state self employed (or unemployed is even better).
GTFO, no way do I want the cops calling my place of employment.
And, before the "that never happened to me replies".
Last PP applied for I had a Det. call me asking for my employer info.
You do realize that you just confessed to lying on the ST-033 (or FARS equivalent) on a public forum. That right there is enough to deny you any firearms. Just sayin'

To expand on that a bit....
Since, in NJ, BB and pellet guns are considered firearms, one equipped with a suppressor is patently illegal.
In the case of non-suppressed BB or pellet guns, the usual advice is just to go next door (Pennsylvania) and purchase one and bring it back. Since they are not considered firearms any place other than NJ, there are no regulations. Since it was purchased legally in another state it is perfectly legal for you to bring it back and domicile it in NJ. Kind of a catch-22.
IANAL

Cost is the main benefit of shipping through an FFL. They can send it using the USPS at a much lower rate than you'll get from UPS or FedEx. Even adding in the FFL's service charge, you are still ahead of the game. If I require a gunsmith, I like to use local people and hand deliver and pick-up. Sorry, I don't know any local smiths that are CZ oriented.
I don't even know where to go for "standard 2 day air service" - do they recommend a shipper?
FedEx and UPS want you to declare it a firearm and use overnight service because they want it in their system for as short a time as possible.
I've bought a lot of guns off the Internet with all of them delivered to my FFL via the USPS. I haven't lost one yet - of course the service wasn't always stellar either.
Good luck with whatever you decide.

How much money was spent on a study that proves people that don't have guns don't shoot themselves?!?

If NICS was submitted on Monday you should be approved by tomorrow. If it goes past your expiration date, you are SOL. You would have to apply for some new permits. Good luck.

...to get back out there and shoot. Sgt Toadette and I shot our first IDPA match in three months yesterday. It was at the Phillipsburg Pistol Club, a match that we used to attend regularly, until it got moved to a different day and conflicted with USPSA at Shongum. Shongum also had a match yesterday, but it was restricted in size and preference was given to club members, which is why we decided to shoot at P-burg.
That is also a small match, but always has been. We had 17 or 18 people there and shot six stages, all on the outdoor range. Under normal circumstances it would be an eight stage match with four stages shot indoors and four stages shot outdoors. It was just great to knock the rust off.
Sgt Toadette finished second overall and first in the Carry Optics division.
Already looking forward to this coming Saturday when, hopefully, we'll be shooting an ICORE match at Lower Providence - just waiting for confirmation from the MD that it's going to happen.
Get back out there and shoot!!!

24 minutes ago, Sonny said:I have a range bag with different locking compartments. Would I be able to put ammo in one zipper compartment and lock it and put my pistol in another and lock that as well? Or do they have to absolutely be separated and ammo in a can? This is the bag I have.
Separate compartments are fine - no need for locks

Who do I look like Karnak? (Probably too young to get that reference).
I have no idea. NJSP move in mysterious ways.

There were thousands of S&W copies that were made in Spain. Their proliferation here and in South America is what lead S&W to inscribe "Marcus Registrada" (trade mark) on their guns - although there is some debate about that and even if that is Spanish or Latin - in either case it has a Romance Language origin and would be understood by Spanish speaking countries. Most of those copies came out of the Eibar region of Spain. I certainly wouldn't attempt to shoot it - or if you must, tie it to a log or something and hade behind something before remotely pulling the trigger. Any proof marks?

Permit? Singular?
You need to learn how to play the game here in NJ. Never less than two and preferably three.

3 hours ago, Smith said:After few calls and couple of email...I received a email stating please provide the proof of employment. Is this a new step? Has anyone had to do this?
No, but I can guess that your employer disavowed any knowledge of you / refused to confirm that you work there.
E-mail them a copy of your most recent pay stub.

Next pistol

They're what I grew up with. Even when I was shooting IPSC in the 80's (with a .45 ACP 1911 I might add), the only semi-autos that you would see were 1911's, a smattering of BHP's and every now and then the oddball S&W 59.
Just look at the beauty of them - something that will never be achieved with "tactical tupperware". They are more challenging to shoot, but if you can master a revolver (I haven't thus far) you will shoot your semi-auto better. They teach things like concentrating on the front sight, a smooth pull of the trigger with follow-through. I just enjoy shooting them a lot more than any bottom-feeder I own.
But, I am old.
