http://www.njleg.state.nj.us/2016/Bills/S1000/579_I1.HTM

 

SYNOPSIS

     Revises procedures for securing a permit to carry a handgun.

 

Statement

 

This bill, the "Citizens' Protection Act," revises and simplifies the procedures for securing a permit to carry a handgun in the State of New Jersey.

     Under the provisions of the bill, an applicant for a permit to carry a handgun would be entitled to that permit so long as he can demonstrate competence with a firearm and is not statutorily disqualified.  To demonstrate that competence, the applicant would be required to include, as part of his application for the permit, a copy indicating his successful completion of  a firearms safety or training course or class offered by a law enforcement agency, an educational institution, the military, or the National Rifle Association.  An applicant who holds  a permit to carry is deemed competent and need not submit such evidence.
