Retired my 14 year old Weber two years ago and got another Weber at Top Line Appliance. Great with natural gas.

1. Application type (FID/permit w/ existing FID). 2 PP 2. Police Department where you applied. Marlboro 3. Name of the person you dealt with at the PD. Initial Officer Peter Paul, at end Officer Murphy plus Secretary 4. Time taken to issue FID and/or permit. 64 days 5. Documents required by the PD (aside from the standard application and the mental health release form). Standard forms 6. Notes - anything pertaining to the application process (unforeseen difficulties, chief of police calling your home, you hiring an attorney, etc.). My wife and I applied together on a Sunday (we had made an appointment and Marlboro is very accommodating). Officer Paul was very nice and even suggested we change the 1 PP to 2 since he said many folks don't like the first gun they purchase. We got our prints done about 2 weeks later and waited. My wife got a call that her prints needed to be redone. We did that about a week later and the next day she got a call to come in and pick up her card and pp. I became concerned that something happened to my paperwork and I called the officer assigned and left a voice mail. She called me back, actually tracked me down since I was in the car and she called the house and said she found my file and everything was OK and she would leave for the chief to sigh. The next day we went to the station to pick up my wife's permits and I asked the lady who does the prep work if she had mine yet. It was on her desk. She checked with the chief, did the FID and PP by hand since her typewriter was broken and got it signed by the chief before we left. I have nothing but praise for the Marlboro PD. When we applied Office Paul told us not to call before 6 weeks. He pointed to a stack of folders that were over a foot high. The lady who does the paper work has to hand write out the cards and PP's and that takes a long time for one person. AND firearms permits are not her only job. Quote MultiQuote

Just got my FID permits and thought I would check out what NJ forums there were. Hit on this one yesterday and it seemed like a great resource of like minded individuals. Hope to be a contributor as I become more experienced.
