There are only 30 days in april. So may 12. may 12 is day 30 after the purchase, which meets the requirement of 1 handgun every 30 days. You could take the safe road and go may13 as there has been debate over it.

Hey rich.... I have a Beretta 92FS Inox waiting for me, and thinking about putting on a hogue rubber finger groove grip

Thanks for the responses... Shouldn't the dealer tell me when I am eligible?

 

Lets say I took home the second handgun on the 12th and proper time hasn't passed? What would happen?

 

Unfortunately the place i am getting it is closed on the 13th, a Sunday. So it's either the 12th or the 19th cause of work restrictions.

NICS will deny you if the call is made too soon. Then the Popo will show up at your door.

I thought you got that first.

I picked up the M&P 22 pistol a few weeks ago

Nice, I'm about to add the mp 45 when my ogam is up. How do you like yours?

 

Great choice on the Beretta. Good luck with that.

If your off by a day. I hardly doubt they will come looking for you. Probably get a threatening phone call not to do it again. whoopty dooo.

i talked to the dealer yesterday.. it seems that they were in agreeance that the 12th would be day 31. if i'm correct, the law states one handgun WITHIN a 30 day block. If you block of the days on a calender, Day 1 being day of purchase, day 30 is the 11th.

 

I've read where people have said that the clock starts the day after you purchase, but this makes no sense to me. I took the gun home that night.. This fact cannot be discounted and has to be considered Day 1.

 

I definitely don't want to be cavalier and just hope for the best. But I will be out of state on the 19th which mean that i would have to wait all the way to the 26th and that sucks.

 

Not trying to be a wise-a**.. But what would/can the police do if NICS denies you? You haven't broken the law because you didn't purchase the gun. I haven't read anywhere that it is a crime to attempt to purchase a second gun to soon.

[JackDaWack 2,895]

There is no clear cut answer to when day one starts and if you have to wait until the 31st day to purchase.. I hvnt herd of anyone getting anything more then a warning. some one here said they got a call once. Now that's excusable, anything more and yeah def. not. Not much to argue if your trying to buy on day 29.

[PK90 3,573]

You bring up a good point Cam. One can not be charged with attempting to acquire a handgun within 30 days, but I would not be comfortable relying on someone else to deny me. Especially the NJSP. You must police yourself.

[Cam'mown 0]

Agreed PK.. as individuals we must take the necessary steps to ensure we remain within the confines of the law.

 

 

 

[hd2000fxdl 422]

+1....

 

Its your responsibility to know nit the dealers....go with the 19th...allow a few days at least so there is NO question

 

Sucks but it is what it us for now

 

Nick,

 

Wouldn't that be the 13th of May, but being a Sunday, unless it was a F2F sale they would have to wait till Monday 5/14 for NICS to be open..

30 days has September

April, June, and November

All the rest have twenty-one

Unless you want to buy a gun

Then you are screwed

 

New Jersey

Are you sure you want to do this?

 

That was my vote for the new state motto.

I think all the months have 21 days.

I was told yesterday that if you try to buy a gun within the 30-day period NICS will approve you get the gun then cops show up at your house to arrest you.

 

Any truth to that? Be careful.

Well.. I got it on the 12th.. if that is day 1 then may 11th is day 30. So then may 12th would be day 31. That puts me outside the 30 day mark.

You can buy on Day 30, but you start counting days the day after you purchased your last hang gun, not the day you purchased.

So if April 13 is day one... Then May 12 is day 30 and I'm clear, correct, Harry?

[hd2000fxdl 422]

Actually recounting the days, as long as the 13th of April is the day after your purchase, then yes you can buy on the 12th of May.

Well.. I had the first gun in my possession on April 12th.

Either tomorrow night, or by Sunday.. I will post some gun porn

[mipafox 438]

So help me out. What does "shall submit within 270 days" mean? Drop it off at the post office with your certified mail form stamped that date or they have to actually receive it within 270 days? Not firearm related, another NJ day counting thing. There is no definition, in case you were wondering.
