CageFighter 236 Posted August 13, 2010 Hi Guys! Newbie from Passaic Cty. Going to apply for my FID & 3 PP Tues. Went this week but detectives werent in. (can only apply Tues & Thurs) Since I dont know if my town is "gun-friendly", I"ve decided to lawyer up for the initail process. Dont want to be denied over BS/games and trying to avoid any headaches. any thoughts? -A Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Krdshrk 3,877 Posted August 13, 2010 Welcome. I'd call up your PD first to see which detective to talk to. Get the exact name and talk to them if they're in. You may need to leave a message. Yes they may have certain days that they do the firearms stuff, but sometimes they have meetings/court dates that they have to go to. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Never heard of it in fact, but by all means, if you're more comfortable using him/her then that's the best route. Good luck with speedy receipt of your paperwork! Seems to be hit or miss depending on your town. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buy the first thing that comes to mind. You'll want another one to add to the collection within a month, regardless of what you get first. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You'll want another one to add to the collection within a month, regardless of what you get first. i dont wanna waste any, lol. -it might be a fight to get more permits after these three! as far as the attorney goes, you would be surprised by the RUNAROUND his office was getting. i feel if i didnt go that route, i'd still be waiting. it was almost 60 days WITH atty.
