From elsewhere:

How much for the .223? "I'll take it" for the 9mm. Awaiting pricing on the .223, may take that too.

Yes, technically, under the recently passed NJ "ghost gun" law. I'm not aware of anyone who has been prosecuted for this yet.

The text of bill A4769: https://www.njleg.state.nj.us/bill-search/2022/A4769/bill-text?f=A5000&n=4769_I1 A4769 will be heard in committee this Monday 10/17. Link to listen to proceedings: https://www.njleg.state.nj.us/live-proceedings/2022-10-17-10:00:00/AJU/Meeting This affects FID, Pistol Purchase Permits and Permits To Carry. I haven't exhaustively read the whole thing yet, but "bad" things that are jumping out so far: - Adds in person interview requirement to FID/Purchase Permit/PTC - Bans carry in car, even with PTC - PD's "may require" social media investigations (of course they'll choose to require it) - Bans open carry, regardless if issued PTC or not - Extends PTC processing from 60 to 90 days - PTC application fee increases to $200 - Requires holsters used for carry to have a "retention strap"

Maybe we're getting closer to the real answer for Ocean County:

Awesome news!

More rumor: Toms River PD received directive to send PTC's to Judge Ryan as of yesterday (Thu 10/6) morning.

So to be specific - Gizinski will continue to process PTC's, and will be the only Ocean county judge to process PTC's? It's already known that previous orders issued by Gizinski will remain in effect until appealed or rescinded.

Gizinksi supposedly wasn't removed, just "un-assigned" from processing PTC's.

Rumor that just came in over facebook: Edit: According to another source, they called a Tom's River PD detective this morning, who verified it - Judge Guy P. Ryan will now be approving PTC permits.

Yes, you need to provide an image of your FID before they'll ship - look to the order confirmation email for instructions.

Submitted my PTC app this morning. My town actually did something that isn't obstructionist - they have a person in the police records division reviewing/accepting PTC applications instead of the rarely-available firearms detective. No appointment needed, walk in, reviews and advises if anything is incomplete, provides the info needed for fingerprints if everything is complete, and was actually cordial.

Thanks, ordered.

https://www.hornadyle.com/the-difference-between-critical-defense-and-critical-duty The Hornady site doesn't give load information, but I'm guessing that Critical Duty has more powder/develops more pressure than critical defense; "Better in Full Size guns" is probably layman-speak for "will have more velocity in longer barrels". If that's true, I'd also expect Critical Duty to have more flash effect in a short barrel/compact handgun than Critical Defense.

Edit: never mind

They'll take one for the team, but it's only going to buy them a few months. Similar suits will be brought in the other "Anti-Cartel" states.

Just passed use of force class/live fire qualification with R.O.C. training at Union Hill Gun Club. Happy to share details if anyone is curious.

Click-bait titles drive me insane. There's just a wee bit of context left out here... DEFENDANTS, as in, INDICTED but NOT CONVICTED. They're not FELONS. We're still, at least on paper, innocent until found guilty in a court of law here in the US.

I share your concern with the current state of the NRA; that being said, I believe ANJRPC is a viable organization on its own that has effective advocacy in NJ *despite* their NRA ties. Since you're a member of US Law Shield, you're paying ~$150 annually in fees. About another $100 annually will get you a membership to BOTH ANJRPC and CNJFO. If you have to choose only one, then I'd give a slight nod to ANJRPC as they are more established, (and if you're in Northern NJ, access to the Cherry Ridge range is worthwhile), however CNJFO also does good work.

That's great that the prosecutor's office is no longer looking to coerce people to agree to have additional restrictions, but I don't think it has any bearing on whether the judge will still issue with "no car"-type restrictions or not.

In the same boat - I luckily haven't needed much care in the past, but I still like to get a physical every other year. Only "primary care" doctors I can find locally are connected with urgent care type offices. I have been using "TeleDoc" type services more frequently for minor crap, and I'm finding that wayyyy more effective and convenient.

I think it's just a rushed last minute/low effort action to have *something* in place. I'd love to see the faces of the legislators who wrote this new requirement when they learn of how it's implemented: "Are you kidding me!? The extent of the training requirement is that they have to click a button 26 times!?"
