"By the time officers arrived" A very important statement. Good job by the first responder, The man with the gun. And good job to the third responder Lt Purvis for recognizing that the man with the gun was in the right place at the right time.

Part of the problem with the republicans is that they let the democrats pick the republican candidate. take NJ for this November, since Christie is an incumbent and is on the republican ticket unchallenged , all registered republicans should switch party for the democrat primary and choose the democratic challenger.

Their news updates seem rather slow considering all the anti-gun attacks lately, nothing about the Maryland case or the scotus not taking the ny case? did they give up on the north east too?

" check in with NJ2AS on best way to approach PD" yes, there might be a way to get a letter without letting them on as to why you want it.

Will the PD give you a letter stating that it is a impossibility for a common citizen to get one? ask if they will and maybe it can used as evidence in the "justifiable need" case.

Would like to see a mfg. create a ".499 jersey magnum" based on a necked down 20mm case.

Now all any anti-gun/constitution state has to do is cut and paste NJ's laws and not have to worry. I think we will have to wait until the firearm owners in Illinois file future suits once they find out that they still won't be able to exercise their rights even though the judges told the state to allow them too.

I was wondering how this would work if you "took the 5th" as not to incriminate your self. "Clarify an Applicant’s Duty to Disclose His or Her History of Mental Health/Addictions Evaluation and Treatment N.J.S.A. 2C:58-3(e) should be amended to provide that an applicant for a firearms purchaser identification card and/or handgun purchase permit must disclose whether he or she has ever been attended, treated, or observed for a mental or psychiatric condition by a psychologist, licensed clinical social worker, or any other licensed mental health care professional, and not only by a physician or psychiatrist. The statute should also be revised to make clear that an applicant must disclose whether he or she has ever been prescribed medication for a mental health or substance abuse condition. " couldn't this possibly be self incriminating if you were forced to answer this, They can check the county records to see if you were ever involuntarily committed but to force an American citizen to violate the 5th amendment is equally as bad them violating our second amendment.

I think their goal with the mental health check is to make a psychological exam a requirement to obtain a FID. I think that this rule change will affect many more gun owners in this state than what people think.

1.2 Clarify an Applicant’s Duty to Disclose His or Her History of Mental Health/Addictions Evaluation and Treatment N.J.S.A. 2C:58-3(e) should be amended to provide that an applicant for a firearms purchaser identification card and/or handgun purchase permit must disclose whether he or she has ever been attended, treated, or observed for a mental or psychiatric condition by a psychologist, licensed clinical social worker, or any other licensed mental health care professional, and not only by a physician or psychiatrist. The statute should also be revised to make clear that an applicant must disclose whether he or she has ever been prescribed medication for a mental health or substance abuse condition. " This is the problem that myself and many others currently have with question 26, This question was added when the form was changed sometime around 2009. having purchased many firearms since seeing a doctor in the late 90's I only noticed this question when I went to do a change of address recently and am now reluctant to do so. This will be another selectively applied rule and depending on who decides on your fate of a card being issued or you becoming a disqualified person will be very bad for us gun owners. also it is going to keep people from seeking any help from any health care professional thus creating more problems than it will prevent.

With the mass retirements ongoing with the state police something has to be done, their numbers went down by at least 400 in the last few years and NOTHING is being done. They have been in the process of "civilianizing" many of the desk jobs but is a very slow process and meeting resistance every inch of the way including a hiring freeze from Christie. They will need to be ordered to speed up the process as they will not do it on their own. Has anyone looked deeply into the NICS law and see if they are violating any of provisions for being a POC state?

NRA web site has info on the Maryland Shallissue challange at the 4th circuit . If this is allowed to stand than any state can adopt NJ style "justifiable need" laws and the country will fall apart.

"They are not looking to see if you went to a shrink to be hypnotized to stop smoking or stuff like that." Then what is the correct way to answer question 26 without opening up a can of worms, Is there a way for the cops to check to see if you "EVER BEEN TREATED ON AN INPATIENT OR OUT PATIENT BASIS" ?

This case dates back to 2008

NJ.com had a story today on a decision from the NJ supreme court on house searches, From reading the article I would say the citizen who's apartment was searched in Jersey City and his firearms confiscated that the city should be dropping the charges. Sorry but think won't paste. Go to NJ.com

The state has the ability to save that info forever, The SBI number on your FID is how this info is stored.

My friend is not full of crap, very upstanding person. He does not want the town mentioned yet. It was the secretary from the PD who called.

Absolutly nothing changed. Change of address was done 7 years ago. We are wondering what they are up to.

Has anyone heard of any police departments calling you up and requesting info on updating your FPID card? A friend of mine said he was called by his PD requesting to update his info. Thanks

Sadly a deal has most likely been orchestrated between Sweeny and Christie to allow Christie to veto said bills yet to allow the senate enough votes to overide his veto and the bills will become law, Christie will "look" strong against anti-gun issues for the 2016 run saving him on the national level and NJerseyains will once agind be screwed.

Although the response is good I do see some flaws with it. for one thing, what is the "flawed federal background check system". If anything is flawed it is NJ's current system. and second he states that "no legislation or gun controls will ever be able to protect citizens from the most horrific manifestations" Yes there is legislation that will protect citizens from these things and it is called RIGHT TO CARRY legislation and a strong castle doctrine! but anyway at least he was neutral.

I'm ready to do a change of address for my FID, Is there any problem in the fact that I did not do it with the time frame as written. If questioned on why I never did it how should I answer? Thanks

I know I will get beat up for this but I would like to see an updated list of NJ CCW holders made public as I KNOW it will show that only the elite and connected are granted their second amendment rights. I believe this evidence when presented to the circuit court will weigh in our favor. We would know what their "justifible need" was to have a permit issued and would be able to "copy and paste" their reason onto your own application. other than that I don't even want the cops to know I own guns. As far as I'm concerned there are two people on planet earth that should know I have a gun, Myself and the person I purchased it from, law enforcment should not even know.

Not smoking anything, I would like to see who is allowed the"right" in NJ, I would like to see NJ's issuing system put trial and show to everyone that you have to be politacally connected/millionaire doner in order to be "allowed" the RIGHT. Since everyone knows retired cops can carry under title 18 they would be moot anyway.

I for one would actually like to see a similar list for NJ CCW holders, It would help our cause by showing who is covered by the US constitution and who is not and the "value" associated with it.
