Damn. It's been a couple of months at the least. Still waiting on my purchase permits. Anyone remember it being this long after already holding a FID?

my last time through took close to 10 wks

i am in Hamilton my permits took about 4 weeks. that was this past March

 

if you are an NRA member trying contacting them they may be able to help move things along. When i as waiting for mine i spoke to an NRA recruiter who told me to call him if i didn't get my permit in 30 days and he would call them. but i got it in 28 days so i didn't need to call him

I'm in Butler and it took 3 weeks.

 

Then again, my best friend who lives in Wallington, didn't get his for 2 months and 3 weeks.

This is where it gets crazy my FID took 6 months a handgun permit took 5 weeks.

Wow, which town do you live in so that I never move there?

I have no local PD so it's state police, also im not a US citizen so it becomes a little more complicated but not impossible.

Actually I don't think it matters I believe the law says the state has 30 days to issue the permit or deny it and tell you why it

Been almost 3 months and just found out that PD's been waiting for questionnaires to be mailed back. My references never even got them.

Hey Ben,

 

That's reeal crappy....I just got mine back..just over 5 weeks from woodbridge...goin to get my new glock 36 this week or next..

 

Good luck with your references and permits!

5 months for Bloomfield.After 4 months l went down there and told them,this is wrong it's been 4 months,2 days later they called my 2 referals, couple weeks later l got them.

The 30 day law is really not observed anymore. Its been compared on here before to some silly laws like you cannot walk down main street on wednesdays wearing a black shirt and eating ice cream at the same time.

 

It is funny how all other gun related laws must be followed to a T for the public, but when it comes to a law in our favor it is not observed. :roll:

with the new requirements.... fbi checks, backgrounds, refrences, and to top it all off 1 officer typically is responsible for all of the permits and FId....... and oh yeah, they typically have other stuff to do... like investigate crimes and stuff.

 

it does suck though. I mean you can sue the town by all means, and you will win the legal battle.... but is it worth it? the 30 day thing is highly difficult to observe.

 

its like if you own a business to repair widgets... and you promise 24 hour return time.... you are the only employee, and all of the sudden you get a surge of repairs.

 

I really do understand it from both sides.

I understand the delay - however, I know that if one guy were to sue a town and win a big money settlement than other towns, fearing the same, would suddenly be turning these things around in 29 days...

The response time can vary significantly. The first time I put my paperwork in, it took three months and the second time it took exactly 21 days.

Just because they have other stuff to do is not my problem. Cops never seem to care that I have other stuff to do when I am running late and drive a little too fast. Or when I don

36 days in Fanwood, including one of my references taking over a week because he didn't realize I was waiting.

Rockaway Twp.

 

 

Got letter today.... 4 permits waiting for me......

Mine took about 90 days in Delran...Let us know how it turns out!

4 days in Jersey City. 8-)

 

Yet, our Police Chief says crazy things about guns. :?:

One week at my local PD.

audubon NJ seemed to come in exactly 30 days after applying. I just submitted paperwork for 2 more permits yesterday. that should make them arrive sept 10th at the latest. We will wait and see...

I think the law requires a seven (7) day minium and a thirty (30) day maximim for pistol permits to be issued or denied.

waiting 3 months and counting.. getting a bunch of run arounds from local PD.. one detective pointing to other and other says he is no longer doing handgun permits.. Time to write a captain or how should I escalate the request?
