ok, so I gotta ask, because I've seen the bags-o-crap before (never bought one) - what'd you get in them?

Windows 7
I subscribe to their partner program (partners.microsoft.com). For $300 you can get the same thing, but I don't think there's a limit. I can install Win7 or their server programs/office/whatever on as many as I want. Not sure what the diff is between the 2, aside from that.

youth indoctrination
A few of the people interviewed don't see a problem - but what if the tables were turned, and they were singing a song about Bush? Think they'd have a problem then? I think they'd be screaming their heads off.

Mayors Against Illegal Guns
I've been following this for a little while, mostly due to what I've heard on Cam & Co (can be found at NRANews.com or iTunes). I was pleasantly surprised to find that my mayor wasn't on the list. Frankly I don't know what her stance is, suppose it's time to find out.

Average Wait For FIC Card?
Congrats on that. Unrelated, I've seen in different posts, in different places, that some people are waiting, simply, on the chief's signature. Any idea what the delay is there? Is it simply a matter of them not making it a high priority? If it's simply a signature, which I presume is not the case, it'd be hard to justify not having the time, no?

Hello from Paterson
Welcome and, yeah, holy cow - 8 months :? I only just applied for mine and I was told to expect 4-6 weeks. I'm not getting my hopes up (too much).

Process to Apply for Handgun Permits and FID
Does anyone know if you have to apply in the town you live in? I've been trying to apply in the town I'm in, but their fingerprinting machine isn't working (insert your joke here). Could I apply at an adjoining town and get it done there? Expecting the worst, but hoping for the best...

taking pics of guns
I think Kenw said it all, but in terms of getting everything in focus, it's the aperture (or FStop) that's what you'll want to be looking at. The larger the FStop (meaning higher, F22 being perhaps the highest for that lens) the more will be in focus; it will also mean less light, so potentially a longer shutter speed. Don't be afraid to experiment with manual modes, though aperture priority is your best bet.

So, indeed, the mental health check was required. Left there today without getting the fingerprints done; apparently their computer wasn't talking to their scanner. Last thing I heard before I left the fingerprint area was one of the officers asking 'what if we have to arrest someone today?' Kinda funny, kinda not. Hope to get it done tomorrow.

Newbie help
Thanks for the quick replies; very helpful. So it seems that the SP-066 (Consent for Mental Health Records Search) is not required, is that correct? Is that form required for a carry permit only?

Greetings all, Perhaps this is posted elsewhere, but I couldn't find it. Can someone explain the proper procedure for going about getting a handgun for the first-time owner? I don't have an ID or anything, so we're doing this from scratch and I'd rather show up and get it right on the first try. I've already called my local police dept and they can process my paperwork virtually any day of the week. It seems that I need at least SP-066 and STS-033 (see links below). Is there anything else I'm missing? Also, on form STS-033, can I apply for both the ID card and use that same form to apply for a purchase at the same time? http://www.state.nj.us/njsp/info/pdf/firearms/sp-066.pdf http://www.state.nj.us/njsp/info/pdf/firearms/sts-033.pdf Any help is greatly appreciated.
