JayWilling 33 Posted November 3, 2014 I've noticed a lot of people using "P2P" to describe NJ pistol permits recently. Did I miss something or doesn't "P2P' usually refer to "Person to person" purchases? Pistol Permits were always PP. Just wondering if I haven't been paying attention or something.

67gtonut 847 Posted November 3, 2014 Permit 2 Purchase ...... I assume thats what is meant by P2P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mark_anthony_78 0 Posted November 3, 2014 It's simple, you just need to show your DL and FID, then fill out a COE to complete a FTF P2P. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Stu 1,922 Posted November 3, 2014 It is confusing when people change the abbreviation. P2P did have the meaning person to person but is now being misused. PtPP used to be permit to purchase a pistol but seems to have fallen out of favor. FID should really be FPID as well. At least COE has not been corrupted yet.

GRIZ 3,369 Posted November 3, 2014 The abbreviation FTF for face to face is more commonly used for private gun sales. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a purchasing process known as P2P - "Procedure to Pay" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djg0770 481 Posted November 4, 2014 I thought it was Permission To Purchase cause I always call it a mother-may-I slip. If we're going to change the Acronym let's get creative. I propose MFGDPFP. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bry@n 195 Posted November 4, 2014 Lol ^^^ I always remember it being FID around 2010. Then people started using FPID. Same thing and easy to figure out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've heard of a similar acronym (one letter substitution, but that letter makes all the difference)... making it quite "politically incorrect." Care to shed some light on what the 1st "C" is for? Update: I just Googled it! Do "visions of "Premium Saltines" or "Ritz" come to mind? :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was Benson who said it. There has been numerous versions of it over the years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HBecwithFn7 296 Posted November 4, 2014 Yes sir. the HNIC was coined in the movie about Joe Clark. It was Benson who said it. There has been numerous versions of it over the years. Actually, it was Morgan Freeman (as Clark) who claimed the acronym first. His admin asst. "Ms. Levias" then had to tell the faculty at the meeting what it stood for. Only after that, in a subsequent meeting, did Robert Guillaume (Benson) (as the BOE president) claim the title for himself. :D But, yes, that's precisely from where I got it. As an aside, if you recall the TV interview in the movie where he claims, "They used to call me 'Crazy Joe...' Now they call me 'Batman'.." I actually saw that Live on real TV when he (the real Joe Clark) said it.... one of my most vivid childhood memories. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magnawing 5 Posted November 4, 2014 I'm pretty sure that acronym predates the movie...I remember my father using HNIC and HMFIC as far back as I can recall...and that goes back to the late '60s-early 70's. Also heard my grandfather use HNIC (not MF) which I would assume dates back to his Alabama upbringing in the 1920's-30's. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
