I took a look around and didn't see a thread on this anywhere yet, maybe I missed it but RTSP is having a free legal Q&A event on 9/27. Here's their description from Facebook: "Have a nagging question related to NJ Gun laws? Curious about how many rounds we are allowed in a magazine? Can you take ownership of a firearm that is willed to you with an FFL? Well... we have good news! One of NJ's premier Firearm Attorneys will be hosting a Q&A on September 27th for RTSP and our customers! This is a free event so please read the photo below for my questions!" http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?fbid=446634165387791&set=a.198859283498615.71429.194343510616859&type=1&theater I'm sure a lot of the basic questions are covered numerous times on the forums here already, but figured someone might be interested.

WOW, I DID AWESOME! 4th place in Pistol Iron in my first competition! Too bad I shot a carbine all day.

Just wanted to add that Xchange1980 and I have been discussing this for a few weeks since we are both in Plainfield, and I was also told my P2P is being held up waiting to hear back from North Plainfield. It's been just over 7 weeks since I dropped off my forms, which isn't that long considering how some of these go though. I've had my FPID card since 2006 and I'm still at the same address. The whole thing seems strange since I had no problem getting my FPID and P2P in 2006, and my wife just got both of her's earlier this year in less than 2 months. She had the same 2 residences as I've had for the last 10 years.

Have to agree with this. Sunday was my first steel match at OBRPC also and it was a great day. Trying to see if I can make it back in 2 weeks for the next steel match. Everyone was helpful and patient and there were no issues in my group even though it was the first time shooting steel for about 1/2 of my group I'd say. I was in the group that started on stage 1, but I don't think anyone from here was in that group.

I'm sure I will also. Already did my 3 observations already though. Wanted to shoot my new M&P 9 Pro Series for the steel match, but I'm still waiting on the permit. Hopefully I'll have it for the next one.

I'll be at the steel match this weekend for my first time also. From what John said I think the new shooters will be in the same group to cut down on the laughter. :-) I have an UpLula 22 speed loader you can use if we are in the same group or close. Works great on the mags for my Marlin 795. Helps prevent bending the feed lips on the cheap metal mags it uses. Also have the pistol one that works with 9mm and .40 if you were looking for one of those.

This wil be my first time too, so I have a feeling we'll be in the same group. Shooting a Marlin 795 since it is the only gun I have 5 mags for right now. That is if I survive the PCC relay tonight. Getting both my new member participations out of the way in one weekend of shame. :-)

Just got off the phone with Smith and Wesson and they have the 15 round magazines in stock directly from them. Price was $41 a piece, but since I ordered 5 they knocked it down to $31 a piece with $8.50 shipping. Same 39498 part number.

Hopefully it won't be an issue to get my permits, just a useless pain. My wife just applied for her FPID and handgun permit earlier this year and we had both back within 6 weeks I'd say. Not sure if my government clearance will help speed the process along at all. It wasn't final when I got my FPID the first time. Just wanted to add that I went to Dick's Sporting Goods yesterday and the guy working the counter said his town requires re-fingerprinting every 2 years. Forgot what town it was though, but it seems this is pretty widespread.

Hello everyone. Been checking the forums for a while, but finally joined to add to this thread. I just returned from the Plainfield PD trying to get a P2P and was told I also needed to get fingerprinted again. Actually they tell me I need to apply for my FPID again and get printed. I got my FPID in Plainfield in 2006 and have not changed addresses. I was also told I would need to do this everytime I want to buy a handgun if it has been more then a year. So if I buy guns all the time and keep an arsenal that is fine, but 2 handguns in 6 years is an issue? Complete BS. I only wanted to pick up a cheap .22 pistol to save money at the range on ammo, and now it will cost me $80 just to get the paperwork and prints out of the way. Forgot who previously recommended getting a P2P every 6 months if you need it or not, but I think I will have to start doing that. It would be cheaper to do that for the next 20 years rather than go thorugh this whole process once. Was given the standard FPID application, mental health record check, and an Applicant Flow Sheet asking for some basic info. Was also told I need to get 2 references again who cannot be relatives/LEOs. Also the guy kept telling me the state requires this process if it's more than a year. I've read the laws, and know it doesn't state it anywhere, but that's what he kept saying.
