deni

I've been waiting on word on my FID/PP application that was filed 8/4 and today I received a letter from my local precinct. This is what I first see With just the first few options I was almost sure that it was a denial letter and my heart sunk. but then all the way at the bottom of the letter in big shouting at you through paper bold letters was what I've been waiting for. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-LbvFckptY&ob=av3e So it took 43 days and I'm pretty excited now and hopefully I'll be able to share more once I decide on my first firearm. Now, excuse me, while I run to the precinct and pick up the goodies. Have a good one!

well said

negative on the FID... tomorrow will be the 6th week(clerk said it usually takes 4-6 weeks) i'll give them a call and see what the hold up is... is the $40 a one time fee or annual? i also checked the video you guys posted in this forum about getting started... will definitely check them out again once i'm ready to join one of these matches..

insane... i believe he's the same guy that was featured in Stan Lee's SuperHuman... a show on the History Channel... caught the episode and this guy is lightning fast http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhgbysnYutw

looks like so much fun! this is something i'm definitely looking to get into once all my paperwork is in order... how much do these type of events usually cost?

+1

that's crazy... what township is that for?

WRONG! Ive heard this nonsense before as well...make a friend in PA who will let you use his work bench to mod your mags that you buy out of state... so basically anyone can mod it? it doesn't need to be done by an ffl, nor a need for some sort of official paperwork stating that it's no longer a hI-cap mag but one that has been permanently modded?

It has fit the criteria of "permanently modified to accept 15" What firearms are you looking for? Alot will already have 15 round mags. XDm's dont really have 15 round factory, however the Smith M&P series does. in particular, the fn fnp-9 or fnx-9- each come with 16 and 17 round mags respectively...

great, so it is possible.... i was told at nj firearms guild that it had to be factory made 15 round as opposed to aftermarket permanent reduction... does anyone know any shops that do this kind of job and how much something like this costs?

Is it legal to permanently modify a magazine so it complies with nj law? because there are quite a few 9mm handguns i'm looking at that have magazines greater than 15+ capacity... most have the option to come with 10 round mags but that really neuters the firepower... only reason i ask is because i've seen some assault rifle mags and even those barrel can things which are welded to only hold 15 if it is legal, how would one go about doing it.

Zombie Infantry of Newjersey... ZIoN? silent J? lol that would make us solider of ZIoN and referring to zion more in a metaphorical way of a promise land(zombie free) and not necessarily in biblical/religious terms...

http://www.3gunnation.com/tv/ has the first 4 episodes up

I definitely want to go hopefully I have my FID by then if I go it'll be on Saturday

if only my ps3 controller had 12lb triggers

no but really... i went to classic pistol today with my gf we shot a walther p22 first since it was her first time and finished with the fnx-9 (i <3 it) anyway at one point during our range time i decided to shoot double action only and i have to admit that i had some trouble after about 15 rounds of dao shooting anyway- that's all! i'm off to do pull ups with my trigger finger

yeah that was the iffy part... so far as far as purchasing ammo i now know buying in NJ - need FID buying in PA - i'm ok buying in PA and bringing back to NJ - :?:

but if i was to buy the ammo in PA would that be ok? and yeah i was planning on checking walmarts- one of the many things i've already learned from you guys here

I was looking at the deal on aimsurplus for the federal 9mm for 10.95/box and read their disclaimer regarding NJ purchases and it said that I'd need to have an FID in order to buy ammo from them(at least for the initial purchase) is that true? reason i ask is i was going to buy a couple of boxes to go to the range next week with a friend and since i'm close to pa at the moment i was gonna head across the river and see if i can get some stuff cheaper on that side since i was going to stop by classic pistol or ready aim fire in the morning... still waiting for my FID

1. Application type (FID/permit w/ existing FID). FID with 4 permits 2. Police Department where you applied.Woodbridge PD 3. Name of the person you dealt with at the PD.Not sure but was pleasant to deal with 4. Time taken to issue FID and/or permit.Applied 8/4(clerk said should take 4-6 weeks)editmail came today saying i'm approved and can pick it up- so 6 weeks plus a day 5. Documents required by the PD (aside from the standard application and the mental health release form).Besides the FID/permit app and the release form for the mental health consent, they also had me fill out a form for consent to check my juvie records i guess 6. Notes - anything pertaining to the application process (unforeseen difficulties, chief of police calling your home, you hiring an attorney, etc.).only about 2 weeks in will update with any events- day of application i paid just for the fid and 4 permits fees... scheduled a fingerprinting in newark which i got done with today 8/20... brought the completed fingerpint form back to the clerk same day... lady mentioned they're just waiting for njsp background check i guess and also haven't received my references... contacted them today(my references) and they both sent it in this week(wednesday and thursday)... so it looks like on my end i'm done barring any unforeseen circumstances with my references (ie- getting lost in limbo on the way back to the PD) now just patiently(for now) waiting.. will try to do a couple range trips inbetween to hold me over... might check out classic pistol or ready aim fire since i'll be down in south jersey(chesterfield) for the weekend... and a friend of mine invited me to come shoot his px4 next week...

i tried to speak with an online chat rep the other day regarding this... the rep didn't know much- simply said that the plans are still on... i asked if they would continue with the plans if xanadu tanked and had no idea...

good stuff the gun store was actually the fire place i ever fired any type of firearm at before... it was at least an hour wait when we went but had plenty of fun... old vegas is like a whole different world compared to the strip.. especially at night if you're still there and looking for another place to eat check out L&L hawaiian BBQ and get the loco moco.. looks like a lot of fun though! and congrats!

Went to Shore Shot yesterday. Fired a bunch from their 9mm selection. G19, M&P9, 92FS Inox, Sig229(FTE problems), Sig239(most accurate for me) and G17 Gen4 Still want to fire XD/m9, FNP9 and CZ75 SP01 Feel free to comment and critique my stance, grip, hairstyle, fashion sense or whatever... not sure how to embed so i just included the link in case the player doesn't show up on the post

What's the general consensus on used 226s? are they not made in germany anymore?

called today- they take applications on wednesdays and they said i only need $5 fee for the FID and $2/per p2p
