January 13, 201214 yr They can handle and fire your weapon provided you meet certain criteria. 1) You must be present 2) You must reasonably beleive (or rather, you must have no reason to suspect otherwise) that they are not a prohibited person. 3) They must be 18 or older. The relevant statute is 2C:58-3.1 They don't need to be 18 or over. There is another statute that applies to minors and allows them to handle firearms.
January 13, 201214 yr Just one thing to add that is not necessary, but may become invaluable... After you receive your purchased weapon they will give you a carbon copy of the P2P. Put the original in your gun safe and carry a "copy" with you to show proof that the weapon is legally yours in case you get pulled over for any reason and are questioned about your intent. Also if you join a range most have a log book that you will sign at arrival and exit, this will also show signs of your intent for transportation. Unfortunately this state is not gun friendly and not all officers now all the gun laws you are legally entitled to.
