I understand and agree with that. My point was that you didn't mention that in the letter to the Rep. You were "selling" HR2900, fine job by the way...and other than the Full Faith and Credit, the 2 bills sound exactly the same when reading your letter. I know you weren't trying to compare 822 and 2900 in the letter, but if your Rep is already familiar w/822 expect him/her to ask the same question I did. 822 does NOT apply to DC as DC does not have a permitting process. They repealed that law right after Heller.

How does any of that differ from HR822?

So an FPID is not needed to purchase a handgun...but would be needed to purchase ammo? My parents live in N Wildwood and I've been tasked with finding out what they would need to do to purchase a gun for the home.

NJ residents would fall under Para (1) which doesn't use the "entitled" wording. Para (2) would cover the folks in VT that don't have the option of getting a VT permit.

How didn't the original wording include NYC?

12 attempted amendments...only one passed. However, the entire bill was substituted

Isn't that just the stupidest thing? Being from PA I found that out "almost" the hard way.

As a NJ resident you would need a NJ permit to carry in NJ...Your FL permit would allow you to carry in every other state except IL...and DC but that's not a state.

For a change of address anything more than a few minutes is an insane amount of time.

NC is an odd duck among the "Free states". Read this pamphlet...restrictions start on Page 21 as printed at bottom of page. If you plan on OCing...google "NC Going Armed To The Terror Of The People"

Not on the federal side of things. Private property not part of the school grounds is an exception to the GFSZ.

There is another signature on the new ones. Bronson is no longer the Commissioner.

Since LEOSA is a Fed law, how can NJ require you to have a state permit? LEA ID is all that is required per the law.

Handgun "purchase" permits can not be issued to non-residents...however, the theoretical handgun "carry" permit can be. Boxjeff which permit were you referring to?

With 822, you would need a home state permit to carry in your home state. So as a NJ resident, your UT permit would not help you in NJ. to the origninal question...HR2900 adds a paragraph to allow for from states like VT that does not issue permits, to carry in any state that issues permits, without a permit. ‘(2) A person who is not prohibited by Federal law from possessing, transporting, shipping, or receiving a firearm, and is otherwise than as described in paragraph (1) entitled to carry a concealed firearm in and pursuant to the law of the State in which the person resides, may carry in any State a concealed firearm in accordance with the laws of the State in which the person resides, subject to the laws of the State in which the firearm is carried concerning specific types of locations in which firearms may not be carried.’. Somebody...say me from PA...carrying under HR 822...would not be effected by NJ permit tiers.

This. THere is absolutely no reason to be carrying these cards around.

Should adjust your settings....I only have 3 pages.

slight clarification...you can have a permit from any state to carry in any of 48 states(barring IL, DC) except your home state. A home state permit is only needed to carry in your home state.

Welcome to PA! We pass thru Catawissa on our way to Knoebels every year. Being from a Philly suburb, it seems like a nice small town to me. As soon as you change your drivers license, go apply for your License to Carry Firearms. Columbia County Sheriff

Do you have any training already? Hunter safety, any NRA classes? If you only need the permit for carry in PA, an AZ permit would be a much cheaper option for you. Gives almost same reciprocity as FL, can be had thru the mail in about 2 weeks, cost is $60 for initial and $43 for renewal.

I got it end of 2009...42 days mailbox to mailbox. Keep in mind you do have to already have a permit from ANY other state to apply.

Fromj the link posted in the OP....you can click on each witness name and read their transcript.

Only if NJ changed to Shall Issue because of it.

The way I read it...isn't the FID shall issue unless specifically prohibited? LEA can't deny just because they don't like an answer to a question....am I wrong?

FOPA does not require separating gun from ammo.
