    What does the manufacturer’s install guide say? I have never heard of that, but I haven’t used every comp ever made:
  2. I deal with the NJSP (and the FAIU) on a professional level, and I am fairly optimistic.
  3. I don’t think so. While they get the “marching orders” from the .gov, the guys porting everything to FARS are not the same people that came up with these laws. The personnel assigned to the Firearms Unit would probably fit in pretty well here and they want to make this process as easy as possible for everyone involved - gun owners and the “State” alike. I know there will be some growing pains, but I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt.
  4. The things you do for love…

  6. The fee increase for everything is technically in effect. Some towns are not collecting the fees until everything ports to FARS and the state isn’t pushing it. The only fee that is mandatory for the municipality to collect right now is the $50 money order to the State for the CCW permit ($200 total, $150 to municipality, $50 to State). Other than that, the state is telling the towns “It’s your money. If you don’t want it, we don’t care.” There are laws that govern how cash is handled and there is a timeline that describes what you have to do with money that is collected. It’s kind of a pain in the ass. Some towns are not set up to handle the extra cash flow, so they are keeping things status-quo until the fees can be paid online and they no longer have to collect cash or MOs.
  7. I’ve shot this gun. It is sweet! If I needed another comped G19 I’d be all over it. Good luck with the sale.
  8. I think a lot of you are looking at this very black and white and not the million shades of gray that are present when intoxication is brought into it. I also think many of you I’ve never been sued or involved in a trial. ANY crack in the armor of legality you may have will be exploited against you both in criminal AND CIVIL court (where the burden of proof is much lower than criminal). If have been paying attention lately you may have noticed - the punishment for protecting yourself has often been the process itself. Being intoxicated - even the hint of possible intoxication, in any shape or form - will never ever be a benefit to your case. EVER. Remember - the legal use of deadly force is entirely based on your perception of events at the time the event occurs. The fact that you observed actions that put you or another in danger of death or serious bodily injury is the key, coupled with your ability, or inability, to retreat. That decision is then weighed against what a similar person, with similar training and experience, would perceive and what their reaction would be. Alcohol and THC are proven to distort judgement, reaction time, mood, memory, demeanor, and the perception of time. How do you maintain that your perception of events was accurate if the accuser can maintain you may have had a level of intoxication present - no matter how small? Your mindset before and during a deadly force interaction also play a significant factor. Poor judgement exercised prior to being involved in a use of force can turn a self defense finding into a manslaughter charge or even murder - if your actions are deemed reckless, malicious, or done with prior planning and forethought. Carrying a weapon while high or drunk, or if you are planning to get high or drunk later, is easily proven to be purposeful behavior that can change what was a careless act into a reckless one (reckless requires a purposeful or knowing component) providing aggravating factors for the courts to charge (and sentence) far more harshly. Keep in mind - I’m not saying someone should be excluded of their 2A rights because they drink or use THC. I’m saying you are not doing anyone - not yourself, your family, fellow 2A advocates and gun owners, or society as a whole - any favors if you carry while drinking or with THC in your system - whether intoxicated/under the influence or not. These of course are my personal opinions and how I make decisions for me. You all do you - and that’s what makes America great.
  9. Once application is “complete” the Chief has 90 days to approve or deny the CCW. Chief may extend 30 more days for good cause with written notification to the applicant. Chief may take longer than the initial 120 days if necessary - that extension must be agreed upon by both the applicant and Chief.
  10. I’m short waisted and chubby, so AIWB of my 1911 is a no go. I do occasionally carry mine IWB at 4:00 (can’t remember the holster maker, I will confirm). Very comfortable. No issues at all.
  11. If local agency is completing your application: $150 to Municipality. $50 Money Order to the state Treasury. $200 total If NJSP is completing your application, $200 to treasury.
  12. When does the 90 days start?
  13. Yes. New form with space for 4 references. Go to NJSP website - Firearms info - Forms to download.
  14. CCW permits are not in FARS yet. There is a rumored update scheduled for this month. We’ll just have to wait and see what happens.
  15. Then you have nothing to worry about.
  16. Critical thinking hats everyone. Why do we question everything the media and internet says, but this is completely believable?
  17. Wow…. Both of those guns are inherently capable of scoring 100% on a HQC - Meaning they are mechanically accurate enough to get scoring hits at 25yards. I have qualed with a JFrame and a Ruger LCP with no issues. Instead of wishing for an easier test, practice harder to be a better shot. It’s a win-win.
