And? Most schools have libraries with computers, as do most public libraries.

The people are the enemy of any government.

For future reference you can e-file your NJ taxes for free on an NJ site.

FIOS here, switched as soon as it became available because Comcast was constantly pixellating and we went through 6 or 7 boxes in one summer. Haven't had any major problems with Verizon, though I did wake up one morning and have no internet. Determined that the AC adapter for the modem/router died and sadly I didn't have any compatible ones. They wouldn't send a new adapter or tell me where I could get one, so they sent a new modem/router next day air. I called about at 6am Friday, it was in hand at around 9am Saturday. Call center was in Texas.

Why?

I don't even want to think about what my parents would say if I did something like that. Likely I would no longer be living in the house, for a start anyway.

Costs money and time to prosecute. Feds are content if the state is prosecuting most of the time.

I don't know, the BS a couple seasons ago where they kept sending the kid (Kenny or something?) to elimination when he did better than the other members of the team who didn't get sent to elimination really pissed me off.

Off topic, but now I know why most new handguns have magazine safeties... Oh how I hate you California.

NJ Second Amendment Society. NJ group that fights to get back our 2A rights. They currently have a lawsuit or two in progress trying to get the state guide to PDs about firearms applications, as well as being involved in NJ CCW. Also they make calls to local PDs that are not in compliance with 2C:58-3 regarding FID and P2P paperwork.

Yes, in most states you have to comply with federal regulations and that's it. A few states have additional requirements, but will still give normal people a permit. Only 5-10 states outright prohibit or defacto prohibit full auto/select fire weapons. Every time I go to my range in Philly I get asked "When are you moving out of that damn communist state?"

Most states, about 40-45 I believe. And yes, it is legal in PA.

Are you a judge or lawyer? What happens if somehow the PD does find out, and the prosecutor and judge happen to disagree with your opinion? Anything you sign and submit to a government agency is too dangerous a game for opinion. Not necessarily, especially now. Many doctors and hospitals have already migrated to an electronic database, and most doctors and hospitals must do so by 2013. Old records may or may not have to be put into the database, but new records do. It is possible that in the near future the PD will be able to check the database with your mental health check waiver.

Doesn't the state police have a copy of every used P2P on file? If so, any handgun bought in NJ is effectively registered.

Pretty sure that that has been proven false in the past. Also, do you really think some guy is going to buy a whole industry he is actively trying to kill? Even ESPECIALLY in politics, greed trumps all.

List or no, IF he did see a psychiatrist you may have just advised him to commit a 3rd degree crime...

I have no idea who, if anyone, maintains "the list." However, since most medical records have to be in an electronic database by 2013, if I recall correctly, it is possible that they are already in a database somewhere. I would agree that if it was a private doctor, especially if it was a long time ago, the risk is small, but I wouldn't want to risk a 3rd degree conviction on myself just so I can own a gun in PRNJ...

One of my references is being a bum and not sending his letter in. I may have to bribe him with some booze when I see him this weekend...

This is dangerous advice. As part of the application process you sign a waiver allowing the PD to look at all mental health records. If they happen to find anything that says you WERE treated and you answered no on the form, you can be looking at being charged with a crime of the 3rd degree, which is the equivalent of a felony, and therefore lose your right to own firearms for the rest of your life. Depending on how you interpret this, you need not be seen by an MD.

Would you need 5 .22 mags though? You could practice reloads with the 9mm mags I would think. Curious because I am also considering going this route with a 226, Beretta 92, or CZ 75, or less likely a Glock 19, with 22 conversion for USPSA.

Are you talking about the one in Oaks this weekend? I would like to know since I'm thinking of going too, but would have to leave around noon .

Actually that's not true. The Statue of Liberty is in NY, as is the original island that Ellis Island sits on. However, since the floor of the bay belonged to NJ, any of the reclaimed land around Ellis belongs to NJ. So, the main hall belongs to NY, but the hospital and much of the grounds belong to NJ.

Yeah, I figure I'll play along with all their games until I have my P2P and FID in hand, then start talking with people there about our town not being in compliance with state law. At least that way they cant "lose" my paperwork. Asking why I wanted to buy a gun really pissed me off. Why should I have to justify my desire to exercise a Constitutional right? I was tempted to tell him to put down something to the effect of "none of your damned business," but decided that was a bad idea and told him "recreation." I just got back from Firing Line, actually, and I think I am getting better. 50 .22s at 7 yards, all but 2 are inside the 10 ring, and I can only make out about 10 distinct impacts, the rest is just a giant ragged hole .

I spoke with one of my references today and he told me that the letter from CHPD asked why I wanted to purchase firearms, if he had ever been with me when firearms were present, and the form had to be notorized. Also, it asked him if I had ever been committed to a mental institution. Is this normal?
