Camden County Police Dept.

Recommended Posts

Requirements are a pulse, an opposable thumb and a poor self-preservation instinct.

.....so perhaps not a highly respected or envied career move.....

They want a list of all firearms you own plus they want to know if you have a fid, on the application.

Do you believe ,unless you just moved here and brought item along, "they" don't know already? Pistol permits aren't just "busy work" for a clerk at the issuing pd...lol

Even if they don't at the Psych evaluation they ask you to list all your firearms at some point anyway.

I do not like their hats. Its ambiguously ghey-ish. As in that guy from the Village People.

 

Its supremely tough to break into NJ LE. Get ready for years of trying to only end up disappointed. Inhave notbreally applied years ago to any NJ LE except NJSP and was 'on track' to go further, before I was sidetracked w another career choice. Now, I kick myself, EVERYDAY.

Take every test everywhere, as the vets come home the number of applicants shall increase. Don't quit trying. Its a tough job that you will love or hate, there is no in between. Its a job that has its perks and definitely its disappointments. If fact go to Camden metro and go to front desk and ask to speak to a supervisor or someone that handles the new hires, at minimum you will get straight answers as to what their requirements are. Don't be a show off and tout your accomplishments right then and there or you will be branded from the door. Just ask politely what their requirements and the process is. Good luck I loved it. Ask me/us more questions after you get the application in. Also find out if the test is a chiefs test or civil service test, because there is a difference between the two. Don't drag you feet.

One individuals experience is different than others. No im not special forces, not a ranger, no hero medal of honor war stories but i can assure you that I did not pack sandbags, i only gunned a mk19 on top of an uparmored m1114. Id rather risks 8hrs on my a** and 8min of my a** on the line than a 24/7 worry if that next wave of rockets or mortars have my name on them or if that fresh pile of animal carcass has an ied inside.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
