Oh ok, thank you! I was going to put down applying for 3 handgun permits just to have them on hand, but if they expire in 180 days then I guess it doesn't make sense...I don't see myself buying a 2nd handgun any time soon. So I need to submit 2 FPID forms; 1 for handguns with "application to purchase a handgun" checked off and another form without this checked off for long guns? I thought just by submitting 1 FPID form with "application to purchase handgun" I would be able to buy both handguns and long guns, or is this not the case? Thanks!

On the STS-033 FPID application; I see that I can check off "Application to Purchase a Handgun - Quantity of Permits:" so it looks like I can purchase hanguns if I check this off as well as shotguns/rifles. Well I'll keep this forum updated to see how long it takes this detective to call me back so I can finally set up my appointment with them...

Hi, Ok, thank you...I guess then I have to deal with my new town's PD which seem like a pain to go through! Just curious; let's say I had my FPID already and my DL matching my permanent address then I move to a new town and change my DL to my new permanent address, what would need to be done to change my FPID to my new permanent address? Also, with my FPID can I also purchase rifles/shotguns as well as handguns? Thanks again!

Ok, thank you... I just don't understand why I can't just submit my forms through my old town's PD if the forms have to be processed by NJ state police. For example, lets say I got my license in my old town before I changed my address on my driver's license and received my firearms license. Then lets say I moved to a new town; would I have to submit any forms to the PD telling them that I moved and that I have a firearm? If I don't have to tell them anything, then it makes no sense to me why my old town won't take my application if the resident address doesn't seem to matter. Thank you!

Hi, I went to the NJ state police website and filled out the following application forms: STS-033 - Application for Firearms Purchaser Identification Card/ Application to Purchase a Handgun SP-066 - Consent For Mental Health Records Search (SP-66) I recently moved to a new town, and changed my driver's license address to my new address. However, my parent's still live in the house I grew up in and I still receive mail there. I called my new town's police department and left a message with the detective that handles all firearms applications the beginning of this week. I haven't heard back from him yet so this morning I just stopped by the police department to drop off the application forms and they said I couldn't drop them off and I have to wait until he calls me back and sets up an appointment for when I can come in...so this is becoming a big ordeal to just drop off the application forms. I then went to my old town's police department today and I just have to drop off the application forms with the records bureau, which is a lot easier; however, when she saw my address change on the back of my driver's license she said she couldn't take my application and I had to go through my new town's police department. So my question is; is she right in saying that I have to go back to my new town's police department where my driver's license address now lists? Thank you!
