I found references to this exact code section at https://www.news2a.com/nj-concealed-carry-faq/ that indicates this part of Judge Bumb’s preliminary injunction was negated (at least temporarily) by the third circuit partial stay. So the web site crossed it off the list of places you can carry. I'm so confused!!!

I frequently use the Delaware & Raritan Canal State Park tow path for hiking and biking. There are places along the path the are pretty isolated and strike me as a good locations for an ambush to occur. Because the trail is situated between the canal & the Raritan River there is really no escape route available. Under the current TRO's/state appeals conditions the following are prohibited places: (10) a park, beach, recreation facility or area or playground owned or controlled by a State, county or local government unit, or any part of such a place, which is designated as a gun free zone by the governing authority based on considerations of public safety; I can't find anything indicating that the trail is a "designated gun free zone" but the wording is pretty ambiguous. Dose anyone care to voice any opinion whether carrying is legal on this trail.

I guess you missed the prominent gray box that states: Important Update – As of June 20, 2023, the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has issued a partial stay which negates parts of Judge Bumb’s preliminary injunction issued on May 16, 2023. We provide the list of places you can carry below as a courtesy. It is not legal advice. Court order from the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.

Yep...pretty much...at least until our cases are adjudicated. Except in your car, stores that don't prohibit it and private residences whose legal tenant/owner has granted you explicit permission. Oh...and "Filming locations"...whatever that means. The usual caveats apply...IANAL, this post DOES NOT constitute legal advice. Consult an attorney for legal advice. If anyone is aware that I am not correct, please post your corrections for the benefit of all.

This site stays pretty much up-to-date: https://www.news2a.com/nj-concealed-carry-faq/

Could our side request an en banc review? If we can, is there any downside to doing so?

Could you provide links to some of those posts? I must have missed them!

Hey, not fair! You're supposed to show him with his new "I'm gonna run for president" hair style.

Yes, thanks. Maybe I'm being a little stunad, but could you point me to the part that answers my question? I can see the terminals being off-limits IF they are considered "transportation hubs", but I don't see anything that addresses trains & busses.

I can't find any direct, on point info on this topic. With a NJ license to carry a handgun can we carry on NJ Transit and PATH trains & busses within NJ. Also, can we carry in Newark Penn Station, Secaucus station etc?

I hope upon hope that your suspicions are correct.

More then "a little ironic". If he did have a CC license it would lend support their "wild west" pearl clutching claims when these cases are finally adjudicated.

The NJ press is reporting a road rage shooting in Somerset County. Links: https://newjersey.news12.com/road-rage-incident-over-lane-change-leads-to-attempted-murder-charge-for-somerset-man https://www.nj.com/somerset/2023/05/road-raging-nj-driver-fired-2-shots-at-car-while-trying-to-merge-cops-say.html If the facts are as is being reported...God, I pray that this guy is NOT a concealed carry permit holder. But because the charges do not include the whole laundry list that usually applies to an illegally possessed gun, I'm a little worried.

In light of Judge Bumb's recent ruling on the Preliminary Injunction, I just want to make sure I completely understand the changes from the TRO. Re: private property...licensed concealed carriers can enter private property if it is open to the public (e.g. retail stores) unless they have a sign prohibiting firearms, but for other private property (e.g. residences) we now need express consent to enter while carrying. Is this correct? Also...if this is correct, can the permission be verbal or does it have to be in writing? Inquiring minds want to know!

I can assure you I won't be jamming the gun back into the holster. What prompted my question is that due to work related injuries over the years I don't get a whole lot of tactile sensation in my strong side thumb. So I'm not sure I will feel slight movement or pressure. After testing, I was sure I could feel the hammer of a DA/SA pistol being cocked via trigger depression and could actually stop the trigger movement by applying thumb pressure.

boresightsolutions.com BTW...after I ordered it, I got a notification from Langston that they had it back in stock, but that was at least a few days ago.

I just bought one of these for a Glock 43X I have a deposit on, waiting for my P2P. I understand it is kind of like keeping your thumb on the hammer of DA/SA pistol when holstering, but does it just provide you with tactile indication of trigger movement or does the thumb pressure provide enough force to prevent trigger movement like a hammer fired gun?

Thanks!

This is the first time I am using FARS to apply for purchase permits. I got notified when my 2 references responded. Will FARS also send a notification when the permits are approved? Additionally, how/when do I pay my town for the permits?

As a followup addendum: After getting the NJ license, I applied to Lehigh County, PA for a LTCF. I got it in the mail a week after applying! I never thought I would witness this turn-of-events in my lifetime!

I just got fingerprinted at IdenToGo in March for my NJ carry permit ($57.38) . The FARS website asks if you've been fingerprinted for firearms purposes and for your SBI #, so I'm hoping I won't have to redo the prints. I was pleasantly surprised with the carry permit process in my town (Bound Brook). I got it 22 business days after I was fingerprinted. Not bad considering some of the horror stories I keep hearing about.

I am looking to buy my first handgun since 2014. So I went to the FARS website and began the application process for 1 purchase permit. I already have an FID card. When I got to the end it says that I will have to pay my town $25.00 per permit and then it asks for my credit card to charge $21.00. Is this in addition to the $25.00 payable to the town? If so...what a hose job!!

To further confuse the issue: All UPS's are actually rated in VA (Volt-Amps) as opposed to watts. This addresses the fact that the manufacturer does not know the power factor of the devices that will be plugged into the UPS. Most modern, decent quality computer power supplies are Power Factor Correcting (PFC) and are also rated by how efficient they are (Bronze, Gold, Platinum...IIRC). The best way to figure out the minimum size UPS needed is to plug your computer loads into a Kill-A-Watt (or similar) meter and see what they actually draw and then extrapolate out for how long of a run time you want.

This must be one of those "carefully crafted, common sense" gun laws that I hear so much about from the governor!
