I had set up an appointment on their prior web site in October, 2022 and received my CCW March 20, 2023. But this is the latest web site I have seen: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdwFr6KPFa0X5B6FZI6aUnQUgtmYSlEhMtjNHPshklEY-T8pg/viewform I hope that helped.

Paramus Park Mall, Paramus, Bergen County 3/28/23

Does anyone have approximate numbers of CCW holders in NJ currently?

It was sent to West Trenton on 3/17: Firearms Investigation Unit P.O. Box 7068 West Trenton, New Jersey 08628-0068 [email protected] - FARS or Permit to Carry applications (NON- RPO) However, they responded the same day that my application had been received and was pending approval/denial. So it probably was an automatic reply. I then received an email from NJSP Totowa in the afternoon of 3/20 telling me the permit was ready for pickup. I drove there later that afternoon to pick up the permit. The permit was dated 3/14/23. So I don't have any indication that the email sent to W. Trenton had any effect. Yes, I know, the chronology does not make sense, but that is what it is. We can only hope that they get better organized, standardized, and make it possible for applicants to determine the actual status of their application. FYI, I had applied at Totowa on 10/25/22.

My car has a lockable center console large enough to store a handgun. I am not certain if that would comply with the law. It looks as though this law was rammed through in haste like a similar one in NY State. It's the administrative handling in the small space of a vehicle that bothers me. Before I retired, I was carrying a handgun in the cockpit of the aircraft of a major air carrier. (BTW, we were trained by the Air Marshal Service) It was never removed from the holster when moving it from my hip to another location for the same reason. In the 20 or so years since that has been authorized, there has been one accidental discharge, and I don't believe it took place in the aircraft. Unfortunately, the law has been written by the people who don't want us to carry. Thanks for the url for the gun safe; I do need a new one.

I'm sorry. I have been away and have not checked the forum. I went to Pike County. I completed the on-line application and received an email returned withing 24 hours inviting me to call them for an appointment. That was March 1, and they gave me an appointment for March 14. I was in and out in 5 minutes. They took my photo and issued me the permit, nicely laminated. They were very pleasant. They are downstairs in the court house and no cell phones are allowed in the building. https://www.pikepa.org/courts___law/sheriff_s_office/index.php Actually it was March 15. Due to the snowstorm here, I called and postponed it one day.

NY resident here. I received an e-mail from the NJSP this afternoon informing me that my permit was ready for pickup. I picked it up and the date of issue was 3/14/2023, valid for 2 years. There were no restrictions on which handguns I can carry. The permit is printed on a continuous page that folds over with my photo on the back. There also was printed "Employee of armored car company". I inquired about that and was told that it does not apply to me and that the box next it was not checked. It also said "This card may be laminated". The chronology follows: Oct. 25, 2022 Applied at NJSP Totowa for PTC. Jan. 17, 2023 Sent update request to Totowa SP, auto reply said I would be contacted by court or SP when permit is approved/denied. March 17, 2023 Sent request to NJSP Firearminvestunit, reply same day said my application was received, pending approval/denial. March 20, 2023 Received email from NJSP to come pickup the permit.

NY resident here. I sent an email to NJSP Firearms Investigating this morning asking for the status of my application. They answered that they have received my application and it is awaiting approval/denial. Next week will be 5 months since I applied at the Totowa NJSP. I guess that's progress, but it would be helpful if they volunteered more information regarding their schedule.

Hi Folks, NY resident here. I applied on line to Pike County on 3/1. They asked me to call for an appointment, which turned out to be today, 3/15. I went there today and picked it up. In and out in 5 minutes with a very nicely laminated permit. They were very pleasant, even friendly.

That's good to hear. I am a resident of Orange County, NY. I hope the NJSP will feel the same as the Morris County Superior Court. I qualified with an additional firearm since my application. I applied at Totowa 10/25/22. Still waiting, though my $50 money order was cashed a week ago.

Good morning All, NY State resident. As of today, my $50 money order has been cashed. Now that they have my money, we will see when I hear from them. Applied 10/25/22 Totowa NJSP. No communication since then. Also, I have an appointment to pick up my Pennsylvania permit on 3/14/22 at Pike County.

Ok, critique accepted and understood.

I spoke to Discover this morning and expressed my objections. I also told them that I am discontinuing all purchases using their card. I am not canceling the card, since that may affect my credit rating or FICO score. I have been a Discover customer for 32 years.

Hi folks, I just read a news article that states Discover Financial is going to begin tracking gun store purchases beginning in April.

Ref. Pike County PA. Agreed. 17 hours from application to invite to make appointment. I now have an appointment on 3/14. They said bring $20 and my drivers' license, and have a nice day. The best part of it is that they communicate. How difficult would it be for NJ (4+ months now waiting) to at least acknowledge my application and give an estimate of the time line for the process.

Just received another email from Pike County, PA, inviting me to call them for an appointment. 17 hours from emailed application to call them for appointment.

Update on my Pike CCW application: Received an email at 10am that the photos of my licenses were not good enough. (They really were not good.) I just sent .jpg copies to them. Will update when I hear from them again.

Good afternoon folks, While I am waiting for my out-of-state NJ permit (4 months and counting) I just applied on line to Pike County, PA. Will let you know what happens.

NY State resident. I had a similar experience with my Firearms Purchaser ID card. After a search I found a telephone number for IdentoGO. 877-503-5981. You would need the TCN number from the IdentoGO receipt. Maybe they can help you or give you a retake at no charge. In my case, in the interim, the trooper found my prints, so I guess they have some secret resources. I don't know if the local pd can do that. I hope that helps you. P.S. In my prior post where I mentioned the qualification course at GFH, passing grade is 80%. Thanks folks.

I live in NY State. Applied in October at Totowa SP. Trooper was easy to work with. Probably delayed for the mental health form return from Albany. Still waiting, 4 months + now. I just qualified with a new firearm at GFH, so that I am prepared to add it to my permit if it specifies each gun carried. If it covers all owned handguns, then at least I have a copy of my qualification filed at home in the event I am ever questioned about my ability to handle the weapon. GFH uses FBI Q target with 50 rounds fired: 24 rounds at 7yd., 14 rounds at 10yd., 6 rounds at 15yd., and 6 rounds at 25yd. The score is recorded on the qualification form.
