I’ve temporarily withdrawn my application, I’ll be resubmitting it when a MVC issue is resolved. Well worth it for the discounts from three of the suppliers I order ammo and components from.
Yes, I’ve been in contact with Carlo and he is a stand up guy. I’m sure they have a lot on their plate with all that is going on at the present time.. maybe I misinterpreted him a bit initially, but today he put me in touch with someone from NJSP who answered all of my questions and now I’m 100% clear on NJ’s view of the C&R License. He went above and beyond to get me the answers I needed.
For anyone wondering, NJSP does officially recognize the C&R License. However, it is intended for 03 to 03 transfers of C&R eligible firearms within the state of N.J. So, if you know another C&R holder in N.J. and would like to purchase a C&R eligible rifle or shotgun (long gun) from him/her, it’s allowed. All other firearms will require the 4473 and NICS check. I did not ask about handguns, I am not interested in handguns.
My understanding is that outside of N.J., you can purchase a long gun provided it is N.J. legal and on a 4473 with NJ COE. Apparently, a C&R transaction outside of N.J. would violate N.J. law. This makes sense, NJ law supersedes Federal law. Could someone find a work around? Sure, is it worth testing the waters and ending up in jail? No way. Again, I’m not telling people what to do.
Too funny (The machine gun bit). I’m sure they see some unbelievable things in that line of work.
