El Jefe 49 Posted December 15, 2023 I had a chance to speak with the officer in charge of gun permits in my town and I asked him what was going on with my CCW application. It's been 50 days since application. He says that they are waiting on some check results from the state and that the state is deliberately slower on CCW apps then it is on anything else. Gun purchase permits were handled swiftly in my town and are well below the 30-day period they have, so I tend to believe him that this is true. Anyone knows what those checks are and has similar experience? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tunaman 558 Posted December 15, 2023 My town tells me different. 3-4 weeks for the PTC but months more if you are applying for the FID and or pistol permits. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that your town is less then truthful. Or they are talking to someone else at state then my town. In my town and the 2 towns around a lot of my friends just got FID and pistol permits in less then 20 days and this also echos my experience. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My P2Ps have been 2 months with no word! It seems they are in a hurry to issue CCWs and screw the FIDs and P2Ps! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

El Jefe 49 Posted December 19, 2023 I'm half thinking that they many (local PD) are just trying to work as slow as possible on both PTC and PTP... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In my town it took 20 days. As its all online not sure what need to happen for the local PD to approve you, but they have 30 days so I guess 20 is not that bad Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FDHog 618 Posted January 14 I just started my CCW adventure today. My town is usually quick with P2P's. Matter of fact I have 2 in the process right now. We'll see how long it takes for the CCW. I'm gonna drop off a check tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FDHog 618 Posted January 23 Well my 2 PTP's came back in 14 days. Hoping that they are as efficient when it comes to my CCW. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
El Jefe 49 Posted February 7 I finally got the CCW approved by my town and got the much anticipated email to download the permit, only to get a 404 error message from the NJ police web site : ( 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I applied for my CCW 3 days after getting approval for my p2ps and it’s 3 1/2 weeks later. You’d think that it would be redundant. Who knows? There’s no standard.

FDHog 618 Posted February 21 I'm now at 5 1/2 weeks. Left a message with local PD asking if they needed any more info from me for any reason. NO REPLY! They've been very quick with P2P's (14 days), but can't figure this one out. It's basically the same background check. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
