December 2, 201015 yr I assume it's like any money order... just putting in 'Division of State Police - SBI'... you don't need an address or anything, right?
December 2, 201015 yr i get my money orders from Stop & Shop, since it's closer to me than my post office.
December 2, 201015 yr I think it's $1. Could be $2. It's been a month, so I don't remember and I can't find the receipt. All I remember is I only pulled out a $20 bill. I don't remember if I got a $1 change or not.
December 3, 201015 yr I use post office MO's also (valid up to $1k). My bank charges $5 so the ~$4 savings are worth standing in line for!
December 3, 201015 yr As others have said, you should be just fine. Last set of pistol permits I received, I used Walmart for the MO for the background check - no issues!
December 3, 201015 yr Not sure what you guys needs money orders for... its 11 dollars for the fid card and 3 permits 5 + 2(x3) which goes to your local PD.. and then the only way you can get around paying morphotrack is if you dont have access to a computer and credit card, in that case you need a MO. Nothing goes to the state police-sbi any more... they get paid through morphotrack.

Most towns are collecting $18 money orders made out to the SP each time you apply, if your town isn't consider yourself lucky.

December 5, 201015 yr Author Most towns are collecting $18 money orders made out to the SP each time you apply, if your town isn't consider yourself lucky. Morristown does it. I didn't realize it until after I submitted the money order and paperwork. It should only be $2 per pistol permit? Right?
December 5, 201015 yr The regulations instruct the PDs to collect $18 per application and $2 per permit. If your PD is not doing that, consider yourself lucky.
