    NJ Jim is selling 9mm.  He's up in Ewing, bit of a hike from Cherry Hill, but a good deal.  I met him at CJRPC some years back.  Good dude.

    I get down to the Inlaws in Cherry Hill every few months.  I have a ton of slugs if you're interested.   Cheap ;)

    Flats of 12ga used to be cheap at Dicks.   Not sure they even sell ammo any longer.  Still, find a local vendor selling by the case.  It's so heavy, it's not worth it to ship.

    Edit: Jim has just .223 sorry.  I thought some it was 9mm

     

     

    Slugs are good, let me know when you are in the area. I'll buy you a drink as well :-)

    I have bought almost all of my shotgun ammo at local shops and I was buying a LOT of it when I was shooting clays and trap all the time.

    I will often pick up a box here or there but when I'm buying 500+ at a time, it's all online.   No one can compete.  shrug.

    That said, I just bought over 5k rounds of ammo in various calibers from a guy on here yesterday.   He was selling, I was buying and it was a price I couldn't refuse.

     

     

     

    well I am in the market for 9mm and 12 gauge  :-)

    I have bought from a bunch of different places.   Cabelas, sportsman's guide, aimsurplus, midwayusa, brownells.

    I usually end up buying from Natchezss.  You just have to watch for their shipping deals.

    I've also bought ammo on here from other members.  If nothing else, you don't pay shipping and taxes.

     

     

    I guess in a nut shell, no one buys ammo from the local shops, but rather online.

    Thanks! Not sure if it's new to CH as well. I am sure someone must have gone through this process by now with CHPD. 

    I will follow up in person in a week to make sure they are not waiting on something from me. 

    Just an update. So my FID and PPP got approved so now I am waiting for CHPD to contact me to pick it up. It took 22 days (including holidays).  I guess that's not too bad.

    Cliffside Park is obviously a different municipality but I paid when I arrived to pick up the permits. The officer at the desk was confused but I explained the FARS system (which was new to him) and then the detective that handled my paperwork arrived to corroborate what I had stated. I then handed over my money orders. I also did not have to submit the mental health form. All went according to plan for me, there’s no reason it shouldn’t work out for you in a similar fashion. Hope this helps

    Has anyone gone through FARS process in Cherry Hill?

    I am following the CHPD's instructions for FARS. 

    I submitted my online application on Nov 15 and my references received and completed their email survey within a day. I then schedule to have my finger prints taken the following week Nov 22 (that was the first opening that Indentogo had available). 

    By Nov 27 I go an email update stating my criminal background check was completed. So now I am waiting. 

    However, I am a bit confused on when to pay for the FID and PPP. According to the CHPD instructions I need to wait for the paperwork to be completed to go into the HQ and pay the fee. But according to others in this forum you need to pay first before they complete the paper work. From CHPD:

    "Step 4:. Once your application is complete, a station representative will contact you to retrieve your FID card and/or pistol purchase permit documents. You MUST appear at the Cherry Hill Police Department in person. The applicant will be required to make payment when they respond to retrieve their documents. Permit to purchase a handgun cost $2.00 per permit and initial firearms purchaser identification card cost $5.00."

    Also, the Health background check form is only needed if you resided outside NJ for the last 10 year. But in other township it seems it must be submitted by all. According to CHPD:

    "If you have resided out of the State of New Jersey within the last 10 years, you must respond to the Police Records Windows and sign a consent for Mental Health Records Form for your application to proceed."

    Thanks for any insights on this process.

    My friends that I use as references are gun owners or pro gun. And they respond ASAP. 

    Have you ever discussed firearms with your friends?

    Discussed firearms, politics, religion, foreign policies, sometime into late night, lol.  But like I said in my first post, I'll will try to see who is more receptive and let the chips fall where they may.  After all, what are friends for.

    Thanks! Basically I wanted to see if the questions alluded to the gun purchase, a supposed to a standard background check as if applying for a job. I have had those for security clearance. 

    I just need to confirm if that's still the case for the online version. 

    Yes, I will keep a look out for gathering.

    So the references part of the application is turning out to be more dicey than anticipated. I married into the typical liberal family and my side of the family is about the same or I just don't get along with them. My circle of friends are reputable and I am a professional, project engineer and mechanical engineer.  However, I am afraid of a backlash if I use any of them as references if they know is for the purpose of buying a gun.  So my plan is to convince two of them to do me the favor but before I get into an argument with good friends over this issue, do anyone has any advice or are in a similar situation? What kind of questions do the references have to answer? 

    One last thing. Are there any greet and meet with people in this forum?

    Last time I got my paperwork (before the new electronic system), it was 6 weeks and, other than the one extra/illegal (spousal permission note), it was straightforward and the township kept me up-to-date on the progress. Might have been quicker but the Chief was on vacation and the permits sat on his desk for a week.

    If this is your first time doing this in NJ, be prepared. You'll need references (can be out of state). All the instructions are on the CHPD website. 

    Thanks SIG.. 

    I was looking at the application online. I didn't realize that references where needed (hmm! who to use). However didn't see anything about spousal permission. Is that just from CHPD? In any case, I'll stop by their HQ to ask some questions.
