Wow - that is amazing!

 

I spoke to them this morning. They apologized for the delay and said the paperwork was sent to Trenton yesterday with a note to expedite if possible.

I hope they do expedite it for you and you have better luck than me. Mine was sent down to Trenton 2 months ago and I still don't have my updated FID and permits.

God, I hope not. I have two handguns sitting in Jim's safe!

Thanks for letting me know about this. I just donated!

 

 

Just donated..Lets hammer those bastards!

I thought we were only allowed to buy one handgun per 30 days in NJ so why apply for 3 permits? Do they get spaced 30 days apart? Did I screw-up by only requesting one handgun permit when I applied for my FID? Maybe it's not too late to change it? I have a friend that is a detective in my local police department who is handling my application (I didn't even know he did that kind of work there). Should I call him and ask if it's too late? There are three handguns I wanted to buy and figured I had to do one permit at a time every 30 days.

The permits are good for 90 days and renewed for another 90 days. Call and have them bump the quantity to five. After the first 90 days, you can have the remaining two extended.

God, I hope not. I have two handguns sitting in Jim's safe!

 

I'm assuming you mean Jim Flynn... If so that's where my pistol is sitting as well...

Yep - I am going to try to get visistation rights!

Four months and three days later - they have arrived. Whoopee!

 

I already used one this morning and will pick up my second captive 1911 in 31 days.

 

I also submitted a new application for three more permits when I picked these up this morning. Didn't even get a strange look.

Wow, I get tax stamps faster than that.

 

I bet if I had to wait to buy a pistol like that I would probably have a lot more pistols. Every time I saw something I liked I'd figure I'd better get it now. And everytime a permit was about to expire I'd figure I better use it.

 

 

form-4 stamps are running between 6 and 8 months right now from what I understand I have friends in several states that are sitting waiting for their stamps to come in so they can pick up their toys.

on a 30 day statutorily limit...nice.

I wish we could have this problem.

 

Then again, I'd be really broke if we could.

Your friends are buying from people with shitty examiners assigned to them. That's not rare at all, quite common. But average is more like 3-4 right now. Some people still get in under 2.

I am new to this and still waiting for my FID card and permit to purchase my first gun. Fortunetly I am friends with the local cops and know most of them personally, even the firearms officer. Lucily he also knew both of my references so he did not even have to conatct them. I have been waiting 5 weeks now and he said I should have everything back in about a week. Lucily I did not have the same expierence as my brother-in-law NJdiverTony.

See, even though you and I had connections within our local PD's it still takes quite sometime. I was somewhere between 5 and 6 weeks.

Yeah, you're lucky to not have to go through what I did and wait 5 months! I'd take 5 to 6 weeks in a heartbeat!
