Hello everyone, I've been looking at your forum for the past couple of days and the information I've found has been quite helpful, so first I'd like to thank everyone for that. It's good to see that this forum exists. I have a few remaining questions that I couldn't find exact answers to so I thought I'd ask directly. I'll be submitting my Application for Firearms Purchaser Identification Card soon and I have some questions about the process. First, will I be questioned in person at any point throughout the process? I read some things about people being asked to explain their desire to own a firearm. In the event I am asked, what is considered an acceptable response? The truth is that I plan to use a rifle to hunt and to take to the range. To me these seem like reasonable, responsible answers but I'm not sure what the authorities consider valid. Second, because I'm 18 and attending college this fall, will my police department feel the need to stall my application? (more than they could be expected to otherwise) I understand that this would be illegal as I am of age, but the fact that New Jersey police departments fail to issue permits within the 30 day period suggests that they do as they please unless challenged by an attorney. For now that's all I have to ask about the application process but I'm sure in the coming days I'll have more to ask. Next: If I am granted my permit, one of my first purchases will be the Ruger SR-22. I've been told that there is a compliant version available in New Jersey. On the compliant version, the adjustable stock is pinned in the fully extended position which some consider uncomfortable. Is it possible to switch out the included stock for another (non-adjustable) stock? From what I've seen the stock seems to be removable, but I'm not sure if there is some kind of modification done to the compliant version to prevent it from being removed. All replies are greatly appreciated.
