‘weapons in common use’

The way I see it,  "common use" does not mean popular, it means contemporary, ie, not inferior to new current technology in common use.  It would be like the government has quad processor computers computers while the peons are only allowed Commodore VIC-20s  In 1775, muskets and cannons were in common use because they were technologically contemporary.  In common use means common contemporary, readily available arms, used in the defense of ones self and America. 

Full auto M4s are in common use, but only by the military, and three letter agencies.  Hell, even the USPS and IRS are packing M4s.  WT everluv'n F?!?!

And what about fingerprints, mental health checks and passport size photos. I SEE IT NOWHERE

Nevermind me i see it now.

Review of Applications. In reviewing an individual’s application for a permit to carry, the applicable law enforcement agency shall continue to ensure that the applicant satisfies all of the criteria of N.J.S.A. 2C:58-4d and N.J.A.C. 13:54-2.4, except that the applicant need not submit a written certification of justifiable need to carry a handgun.

Fingerprints, passport size photos, and mental health check STILL REQUIRED.

this looks like the important part.

 

(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.

Not just NJ, but America.  You have no idea how happy I am that the Constitution won, over judicial activism.  However, I'm not yet prepared to join the circle jerk.  It will be a while before this is figured out, and that will be by design.  The socialist fucks will do everything, no matter how petty, to make it as costly and difficult as possible to protect one's self outside the home.

The directive has already been issued by the NJAG and NJSP. 
 

I agree this is a victory for ALL Americans, but it’s especially satisfying and welcome for those of you behind enemy lines. 
 

It doesn’t really change much for us down here in Texas.

The only question i have is do we need police Quals or not? Is a basic pistol training certificate with a certified instructor sufficient? If we do need RPO quals/police quals where do we go?

This is where the permitting system remains subjective.   You have to convince your Chief of Police and a Superior Court Judge that you have satisfied the competency requirement.

You can easily find out from your local PD as to what they will accept.  The Superior Court Judge, not so much.  There is no way of knowing which judge your application will come before.   There are usually several in each county.

Your right, on both accounts. We still have to appear before a Superior Court Judge after the Chief approves. When I called my local PD earlier today that was before this directive was issued. I'll have to call my PD again to discuss training requirements after the weekend. Everything else in the process is self-explanatory at least. I don't mind having to get additional training if required, I am just happy that we are finally on the right path.

Ok. Now that the NJSP issued this "directive". Where does that put me? I already have a NJ 'carry' permit (renewed 5th time, last month May 2022) "restricted" during 'working hours only' for my part time job. Where does this 'directive' put me and some co-worker with a non-res jersey permit? I am a res. Maybe I should just call the NJSP where I got it from.

The AG website has a constituent contact page.   Fill it out asking how the new directive affects current permit holders that have restrictions under the old directives.

Thanks!

I wrote the following:

What is the new directive for applying? What are the shooting requirements? Where are accredited facilities to take the shooting range portion required with the application.
Thank you.

 

Now we wait.

 

It's good to see so many members come back to the forum.

I'll also post this in the CCW thread, but I called then went down to my local PD and they were pretty much ready with a packet they told me was updated this morning.  They removed the justifiable need and resume requirement (remnant from assumed security guard need), and told me they were aware of the ruling.  However they told me it typically goes to the county judge who they inquired as of this morning was unaware of the ruling and stated he would deny all applications.  The officer told me he expected that answer to change by next Tuesday morning and told me they suspect that they will probably push for the approval to be done either by local PD or NJSP once they see the deluge of applications that threaten to overwhelm the judge.  Coming is integration into FARS.  I have the packet and my only question is there is 3 references on the application which is to be filled in triplicate, so do it looks like I will need to visit each of my references in turn to complete the applications.  Only weird thing is I also have the pistol permit form in there as well, not sure why I need that unless I'm buying another pistol (never a bad idea...).

brings up the question again.....by the wording, can the judge not be removed from the process?

Purchase permits, done thru FARS, contact the references by email.

Th carry permit application is different.  Each reference must personally sign each of the 3 copies.  They want to make sure the references personally understand that they are vouching for your responsibility to carry a handgun.

Doubtfully.  Many states require someone at the county level to approve carry permits.  In Pennsylvania, it is the County Sheriff.

correct...but it's still a cop doing the approval/denial. that's part of why i'm asking......judges have no place in this.
