  1. That is because it is not in the statutes. A FID is just for long guns or ammunition. You do not need a FID for a permit to purchase a handgun, nor for a permit to carry. Also, something most do not know, your purchase permit allows you to purchase ammo as well. I listened to attorney Dan S. on the GFH podcast and he recommended waiting to apply for carry to see if the rules for applications change in the coming weeks. I am not sure that I agree with that thinking. Thursdays US Supreme Court ruling was the greatest victory for residents in state like NJ and NY in the history of 2A. On Friday the NJ Attorney General removed the illegal justifiable need clause. What more do we need to wait for?
  2. “3. Completion of a course or test in the safe handling of a handgun administered by a certified firearms instructor of a police academy, a certified firearms instructor of the National Rifle Association, or any other recognized certified firearms instructor; or” Anyone who has taken an NRA class just needs to send in a copy of their NRA certificate. That is how I read the above.
  3. Furthermore, retired law enforcement officers usually “qualify” as a condition of their retirement if they want to continue carrying a firearm. So they always elect option b2. It has been that way for many years. Most of the existing “nj carry permits” are retired LEO. So we have a long standing tradition that most, if not all, have always chosen b2. It then becomes the norm per say. I read the statue as it is written. We can elect 1,2,3 or 4. One of them.
  4. In the legal document world, commas, colons, semicolons the word “and” and the word “or” have great meaning. Note the word “or” at the end of paragraph b3. If we have an English major, or attorney on the forums maybe they can confirm my interpretation. The word “or” implies that you can submit 1, 2, 3, or 4 as evidence of familiarity. The semi colons after 1 and 2 merely state that there is more to follow. The “or” appears only after 3 because it is second to last. 13:54-2.4 Application for a permit to carry a handgun (a) Every person applying for a permit to carry a handgun shall furnish such information and particulars as set forth in the application form designated SP 642. The application shall be signed by the applicant under oath and shall be endorsed by three reputable persons who have known the applicant for at least three years preceding the date of application, and who shall also certify thereon that the applicant is a person of good moral character and behavior. Applications can be obtained at police departments and State Police stations. (b) Each applicant shall demonstrate a thorough familiarity with the safe handling and use of handguns by indicating in the space provided therefor on the application form, and on any sworn attachments thereto, any relevant information. Thorough familiarity with the safe handling and use of handguns may be evidenced by: 1.

Submission of an applicant's most recent handgun qualification scores utilizing the handgun(s) he or she intends to carry as evidenced by test firings administered by a certified firearms instructor of a police academy, a certified firearms instructor of the National Rifle Association, or any other recognized certified firearms instructor; 3. Completion of a course or test in the safe handling of a handgun administered by a certified firearms instructor of a police academy, a certified firearms instructor of the National Rifle Association, or any other recognized certified firearms instructor; or 4.

(d) Each application form shall also be accompanied by a written certification of need which shall be under oath and which:
  5. Here is the proper way to read this to clear up any confusion. In the above bill, commas are ‘ands’. To qualify to carry in NJ, as a NJ resident, you must meet all of the reqirements written that are seperated by commas and the final “and” at the end of the sentence. A comma is never used to describe the last of multiple items. “and” is used. NJ residents should not care what is written after the “or”, it means nothing and does not apply to NJ residents.
  6. “(a) Notwithstanding any provision of the law of any State or political subdivision thereof (except as provided in subsection (b)) and subject only to the requirements of this section, a person who is not prohibited by Federal law from possessing, transporting, shipping, or receiving a firearm, who is carrying a valid identification document containing a photograph of the person, and who is carrying a valid license or permit which is issued pursuant to the law of a State and which permits the person to carry a concealed firearm or is entitled to carry a concealed firearm in the State in which the person resides, may possess or carry a concealed handgun (other than a machinegun or destructive device) that has been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce, in any State that—
  7. Is the OP breaking any laws just keeping his item? Once it is in his house isnt he protected under the home exemption?
  8. My friend will be in Rutherford on Wednesday repairing a slate roof. He said on Raymond ave. Should I pm you his info?
  9. It is true, only at the Federal level will we see any relief here in NJ. Either a US Supreme court decision (like a Peruta, which btw is awaiting cert right now) or a National Reciprocity Bill like the Hudson one....let's hope for both of the above. Our elected representatives here in NJ would not let Christie even add a word or two to our justifiable scheme. It is a travesty. A Hudson type law and or Peruta type positive US Supreme court decision are our only hope.
  10. Really nothing to elaborate or any big news to report, it was more of a "Hang in there, everyone is focusing on Healthcare and Gorsuch nomination right now" from Rep. Hudson. A two minute video interview from Hudson regarding HR38 is a definite must watch for us. The text, as Sam pointed out, was a cut and paste job with old information.
  11. You missed the video. Click play if you are so inclined and if you have the 2:19 minutes to spare.
  12. Hudson 3/22 update: https://www.americas1stfreedom.org/articles/2017/3/22/rep-richard-hudson-an-update-on-national-reciprocity/
  13. Nothing to object to here, other than some whining op-eds to the NY times. There will be no 3rd circuits or any circuits for that matter. There will be no scoutus here either. A law is a law. "from wiki" Nullification, in United States constitutional history, is a legal theory that a state has the right to nullify, or invalidate, any federal law which that state has deemed unconstitutional. The theory of nullification has never been legally upheld by federal courts.[1] Courts at the state and federal level, including the U.S. Supreme Court, repeatedly have rejected the theory of nullification.[2] The courts have decided that under the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution, federal law is superior to state law, and that under Article III of the Constitution, the federal judiciary has the final power to interpret the Constitution. Therefore, the power to make final decisions about the constitutionality of federal laws lies with the federal courts, not the states, and the states do not have the power to nullify federal laws. Between 1798 and the beginning of the Civil War in 1861, several states threatened or attempted nullification of various federal laws. None of these efforts were legally upheld. The Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions were rejected by the other states. The Supreme Court rejected nullification attempts in a series of decisions in the 19th century, including Ableman v. Booth, which rejected Wisconsin's attempt to nullify the Fugitive Slave Act. The Civil War ended most nullification efforts. In the 1950s, southern states attempted to use nullification and interposition to prevent integration of their schools. These attempts failed when the Supreme Court again rejected nullification in Cooper v. Aaron, explicitly holding that the states may not nullify federal law.
  14. There is no such thing as an injunction here and there will be no litigation.

  16. ""There really wouldn't be a reason for them."" Exactly right.
