Process for multiple handgun exemption...

Featured Replies

Hey guys, question regarding multiple handgun purchase exemption:

 

1. I have 4 pistol permits ready to be picked up on Friday

 

2. I have one handgun sitting at the FFL that just came back from the manufacturer... they exchanged the frame for a new one, so now it has a new s/n hence the need for a PP to get it back.

 

3. I'd like to buy a Glock 30SF (saved funds for it) from a different FFL than in #2

 

Can I use the multiple handgun exemption to OGAM to get both? How do I do this?

 

Thanks,

-DA

So if I'm reading that thread correctly...

 

1. I use my one permit to buy my Glock 30SF.

 

2. Then get the Form SP 015 and fill that out for my repaired gun and give an SP 016 to my FFL to complete.

 

3. FFL sends forms in.

 

4. Await approval.

 

5. Get approved.

 

6. Take guns home.

 

Or should I put my repaired gun and Glock 30SF on one exemption form and just do it that way?

Also... what qualifies as a "sanctioned shooting activity"?

ffl does not send forms in, you take all forms, along with permits to your police dept, they submit paperwork. secondly, they have no way of checking on sanctioned shooting activitys or whether your a collector or not.

I am doing the Exemption thing right now. I did all the paperwork and gave it to my local PD and they had never seen it before. They should have sent it to the NJSP. I did not give them my permits though, I still have those.

 

In reading the Exemption stuff it seems that I was susposed to apply for the Exemption AND the permits at the same time.

 

I got the permits first, then did the Exemption paperwork.

 

Guess we'll see what happens..............

 

I have 3 more handguns that were paid for quite sometime ago waiting to be picked-up. I used one of the 4 permits to get a gun I paid for months ago, did not put that one on the Exemption form.

IMO, if you are only getting two handguns, I would not bother with the exemption forms.

I agree,

 

You may also have a problem with Motown PD accepting your exemption like they're supposed to. I've been hearing that Motown PD is telling people to send it in to the NJSP themselves, which is not the procedure as I understand it.

You can apply for them exemption independently of the permits, they're approving them, you should be fine.

Sooooooo. Just how long should this process take? I handed-in the forms to my local PD about two weeks ago. They had NEVER seen these forms either. I also gave them the copy of the "Letter to the Chief". Now, my buddy is the guy in charge of the firearm stuff in my local PD, he has no reason to tie me up.

If they don't sit on it (which they may if they're not sure what to do with it) 2.5 - 4 weeks.

Did the same myself, applied for new permits, and submitted exemption paperwork. Expect to get my permits, all 9 of them in the next few weeks.

 

Also, was the first in my town to use the exemptions.

I thought the State Police took a few days to do their thing. I already have the permits sitting here.

Being that you know the person at the departments who is doing this if I were you I would call the NJSP firearms division and inquire how the process works and what sort of time frame. I would also get the persons name and extension and ask if it would be OK for you to have the person at the PD contact them directly have them do that while you are there and see if you can get the ball rolling that way, or in our case rolling faster.

I'm not sure where exactly the most time is wasted in this process, but typically the exemption is signed (by a trooper in Trenton) less than a week prior to when I get it in my hands.
