I made an account with Natchez Shooter's Supply - http://www.natchezss.com and gave them a call inquiring about providing FPID for handgun ammo order. The man I spoke with said only Illinois is required to do that an not NJ.

 

I know this is a popular site for NJGF members- can somebody please confirm this is true and I am in compliance with NJ law in the city of Hoboken if I order from there?

Legally you are required to have a FPID to take possession of handgun ammunition inside the state of NJ. If you do not have a FPID, there is no place in the state that you can obtain handgun ammunition legally, although there may be exceptions for inheritance. There is also clearly an exception for ranges that rent.(or borrow a friend's gun to shoot at the range).

 

Natchezss does not require you to have a FPID on file to ship you ammunition. If you do not have a FPID and take delivery of the ammunition, you are breaking the law.

 

Does that answer the question?

Yes, that answers my question. Thank you for your help.

 

I do legally own a handgun and do have a FPID that's valid and in my posession.

I need target ammo - would you receommend CCI Blazer Brass 9mm Luger 115 gr FMJ or Sellier and Bellot 9mm Luger 115gr FMJ

for that? Both are about $10/per 50 box

Many ranges do not allow steel or aluminum cases. unless you know for sure that your range does, I would go with the brass case ammo. s & b is pretty good ammo too.

Both the CCI Blazer "Brass" and the S&B are brass FMJ - correct? It seems S&B has a little more positive reviews to it so I may go with that. Thank you

I'd definitely go with CCI over S&B.

Personally, I prefer Blazer Brass in 9mm but I've run at least 1000rnds of SB brass ammo without an issue.

Sorry. reading is fundamental. I see blazer and I think aluminum cases. I don't really know much about their brass ammo.

I live in Jersey City; I don't know about Hoboken ordinances, but I've ordered 9mm, .38 and 12ga. from Natchezss without a problem. As long as you have the paperwork (and you said you do) to the best of my knowledge, it shouldn't be an issue.

 

As for ammo, I was going back and forth between S&B 115 grs. FMJ and the Remington UMC Mega Packs (250 rnds. @ $49.99). My Glock shoots everything, but my CZ-75 BD seems to prefer the S&B. Huh.

 

When I got my first handgun, someone told me to get a few boxes of each and see what works best for you. That seems to be the best advice.

Not a problem, Lunker, I knew what you meant.

 

I just went with 10 cases of the CCI Blazer Brass

Wow! 10K rounds - I'm coming to your house when the SHTF

Haha - 10 boxes. Whoops.

I like Natchez and that CCI Brass works good for me.

Amazing! i called them today and they said I needed to send them FID in order to get primers and powder...

I drive out of state to buy those. It is cheaper for me to do that then pay shipping and a hazmat.

 

And PA is closer than any other stocking NJ dealer. Depending on where you are located and can be very worthwhile.
