That would be fantastic

Yes, FFLs in NJ have had to record handgun ammo purchases on paper for many years. A PITA. That collection of paper was to be kept in case NJSP ever needed to inspect it. To my knowledge, they never did at our shop. The new FARS system went live this week without any notice. This electronic collection scheme will not only add $1.50 to each transaction, but it will add 2-3 minutes to each transaction. That may not sound like much time, but at a busy shop, this will be a huge nuisance. I believe this electronic scheme only applies to ammo leaving the building. If you are shooting it on location, it does not need to be recorded. For those that shoot first and then buy ammo after the session to resupply stash, I now highly recommend buying ammo going into the range.

Yes, Henry has the Homesteader coming out... with a MSRP of nearly $1000.

I would agree 100% that .40 is a caliber worth considering, especially now that people are dumping their 40s because they have read online that 40 is a dying fad. Think back to 2-3 years ago during the "great panic". The shop I work at had short supplies of 9 and 45acp, with purchase limits on each. .380/.38/.357/.44 was nowhere to be found. Prices were climbing quickly due to the shortage. The .40 S&W ammo shelf? Stacked deep and priced low...$19.99.. I wish I had bought more at that price. At that time, I picked up a used Glock 35 cheap and have not regretted it once. I do not shoot it often, but I have it and a couple thousand rounds. During the next shortage (don't think there won't be another shortage), I can shoot all I want of .40 and not think twice. The S&W 10mm revolvers can also shoot .40 S&W. The S&W Governor shoots 3 calibers... .410, 45 colt & 45 ACP. If you are thinking about a big bore revolver, I would recommend something in .460 S&W. Those shoot 460, 454 Casull and 45 colt. Not a cheap gun to own or shoot, but I do like a 3fer.

You may be trying to sell that, but I am not buying it.

I normally do not react like this but.... WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jesus H. F****ing Christ...... If little ones are around, why are your guns within their orbit?!?!?!?

Ocean County update. 8/12 Applied at Berkeley township police dept. 9/12 application sent to Ocean County 2/14 got the call and picked up permit (dated 2/6). My applicant number is 537. 3 guns listed, but no restrictions. 6 months

I am bringing home a lovely 4" S&W 28-2 Highway Patrolman this week. It is wearing Herrett's aftermarket grips. I want to put a set of correct S&W magna service grips on it. I know ebay, Altamont, GB etc. can provide, but I'll try here first. If you have a decent set gathering dust in the basement and want to turn them into cash, the Herrett's or some ammo, lemme know. Thanks.

I would agree 100%. I have owned the Beretta CX4, Marlin Camp 9, Sub2k and the Ruger PC. I still own the Ruger. In my opinion, the Sub2k is a no brainer as a $300 gun. The price has now jumped up to the $500+ range. The Ruger for another $100 is a much better gun....better build quality, better sights, easier take down, threaded barrel (if no pistol grip).

You do not need a FFL for a transfer between immediate family members & between LEOs

Every town does it at a different pace. Some towns take 3 weeks, some towns take months. There is no way to check the progress. You will rec'v an email from FARS when the PD finishes the background check. Your next email FARS email will be the approval that says how many permits you have and the expiration date.

Would you be willing to ship to Bayville? If so, I will take it.

Sometimes, it is necessary to fire a customer.

Until the new ruling is posted on the register, it is legal to sell them. After that, I believe they are nogo.

I typed that when I was under the impression that form 4999 was going to be used. They killed that worksheet.

I am 537. A buddy of mine just got his 4 days ago.....375.

I just happened to have an extra rifle upper on hand, so for giggles I threw it on my other lower along with a fixed stock. I now have a basic no frills 16" rifle that I paid waaaaaay too much for. When I bought my 10.5" Troy 2 years ago, I went in with my eyes open. In the back of my mind, I suspected that the pistol braced "other" in NJ could possibly get put on a NOGO list at some point.

Yes, your FFL should be able to access the executed permit and give you a printout.

Would you be willing to provide the 1st 2 digits of your permit #...ie 33x. Sincerely, 53x

IANAL, but in my reading of the worksheet, I see that......... Section 1 - Prerequisites 2. The weapon must have an overall length between 12 and 26 inches. "Weapon must meet both Prerequisites in order to proceed to Section II" My NJ legal Troy A4 "other" with a 10.5" bbl and a pinned flash suppressor is over 26" as measured from the end of the buffer tube. End of story.... correct?

<<<<< Ocean County Update >>>>> Yesterday a friend of a friend was issued his permit. He applied at LEHT in early September and has an applicant # in the 330's. I applied Aug 12, but it did not get to the county until Sep 12. My number is in the 530's.

Here is the response I rec'd... "Due to the new law passed under Gov. Murphy any applications received after 12/22/22 will be processed at the police departments. Those received prior will remain with the courts. We are processing our backlog quicker now that the prosecutors office is no longer part of the review process. Once your number is reached Judge will review your file and sign your ptc or request a hearing." So this seems to say what I suspected....that those who applied after 12/22 could get a carry permit BEFORE I do because my application is stuck in a pile at the county. I was hoping the county would simple send the piled up apps back to the police depts to be issued. Oh well.....

JA, I submitted to Berkeley on 8/12. They sent my stuff to OC Sup. Ct. on 9/12. I am # 537 in the county. I do not know where they are in the pile, but I did send them of sternly worded email last night asking "WTF, it has been nearly 5 months" Let's see if they respond. I will keep you in the loop. DG

Thanks for the update. I ordered 9 and .45 Colt.

Keep this in mind......NJ is a peninsula, surrounded by water on 3 sides. If the shit ever really hit the fan.... Do you think PA is gonna let 7 million NJ residents across the Delaware? Hell no. Those bridges will be blocked or blown up. If you are in NJ during the end of times, you will not get out of NJ. The "Bug Out" concept works if you live in Idaho or Kansas and have somewhere to go.
