Nope. Can't do that. I'm hired to write estimates for the insurance claims submitted for the homes. 90% of those claims are vandalism and stolen copper pipes (wonderful Philadelphia and Camden). So now you see why I wish I could apply and actually get one. If you find me a new job that pays what I'm making I'll gladly switch. lolSent via Tapatalk HD on my iPad

Yeah I think it's NJ, NY, and I believe 2 or 3 others. The rest allow it. Unfortunately PA gives them out like candy, but at least they issue them. I seriously feel that they need to either make them like drivers licenses where they are reciprocal or create one national license to carry which would require a $100 charge for FBI background check and filing. I see nothing wrong with that as long as they make it available nationally...

That's pretty much what I figured...

PS.... I spoke with a NJ State Trooper and told him that I had my PA license to carry and wanted to know if there was a way I could get my NJ permit. His response was, "Isn't your PA permit valid in NJ?" and when I said no he said, "Oh well I wouldn't worry about it. You have a good reason to carry and if I ever pulled you over I would let you go." and I was stunned and laughed and said, "welllll....I don't wanna count on it being you every time I get pulled over". Seriously?!? I'm not generalizing!!!! Just had to share that true story... Sent via Tapatalk HD on my iPad

OMG. You guys have seriously provided me with a solid 10 min of laughter. I loved all the comments, you guys are a riot. I sincerely appreciate the answers and I pretty much heard its impossible and I would be wasting my time. Seriously makes me want to file suit against the state because it angers me. I genuinely feel that I have a legitimate reason to carry and I know I would be denied. I figured I would make this post in hopes that someone knew something that I didn't. :-( Sent via Tapatalk HD on my iPad

Hey guys, I'm from PA and have my concealed carry license in PA. I travel into NJ often for work so I am usually unable to carry my weapon as NJ does not recognize the PA license to carry concealed. I spoke with several officers in NJ and no one seems to know for sure if I can successfully obtain a concealed carry license in NJ. For those wondering why I may want it, I inspect vacant homes (typically foreclosed homes) for banks almost every day and have been in several dangerous situations. I find I feel 1000x more comfortable and secure when I'm in PA and can carry the weapon on me when in these vacant homes in bad neighborhoods. Does anyone know if I can ACTUALLY obtain the concealed carry license in NJ? I have heard NJ is a "may issue" state and PA is a "will issue" state. I've also heard its near impossible to get a concealed carry license in NJ unless you are a police officer or retired officer... Any help offered is appreciated. Sent via Tapatalk HD on my iPad
