Im sure this will never happen here but I was talking to a huge gun enthusiest today who was told by a retired state trooper that nj may get rid of p2p's! Im sure its just a rumor and may have been discussed here but anyone know of any truth to this?

Yep, they're going to approve my CCW permit next month.

You didn't get yours yet? Got mine last week.

I figured I wouldnt get a straight answer.

They are also getting rid of the assault weapons ban. I also saw a Unicorn AND bigfoot.

I asked Nessie and Champy and they both agreed on 2 points...

 

1. Bigfoot is a douchbag

2. Full auto conversions of any firearm by 2013 in the Garden State

Sort of.

 

A Bill may be introduced soon that eliminates the redundant application process for permits. Registration/permits will be handled by dealers for all dealer purchased handguns. Face to face acquisitions will still be the same. OGAM will remain.

This has been gunshop gossip for about two years now. I am not holding my breath.

There was a bill introduced in 2009 to eliminate fingerprinting and to use only the NICS check to determine approval for FPIDs and P2Ps, http://www.njleg.state.nj.us/2012/Bills/A3000/2695_I1.HTM

Additionally, that bill reduces the approval requirement to 10 days from the current 30.

 

That hasn't gone anywhere and is still listed in this legislative session.

 

But, what you're hearing is the news on page 4 of the May/June issue of ANJRPC's News & Briefs. They are working on a bill to eliminate permits for purchases that go through an FFL that would use the NICS. The bill has been drafted and they are waiting for a bill number to be assigned.

 

The form of registry would still be filled out at the time of purchase.

 

This kinda leaves face to face private sales unaddressed and you'd think the older bill would have a better shot at paying if they don't address private sales.

So if you want something, you either go to a dealer and buy it whenever you want, or you find a private seller and then go apply for a permit, wait 6 to 8 months in some cases, and then get to buy used? I guess everything will start moving through dealers.

Just like PA.

This would make me happy. Find a quality dealer that will take care of his customers and I am a happy man.

Even for the typical transfer fees and NICS fee, I'd have no complaint. Sounds better than the current system.

Join the NJ2AS and attend some meetings , youll find out everything thats going on in this horrible state concerning 2A rights and what they are doing to fight it ........ http://www.nj2as.com

THANK YOU!!!!

Im surprised NJ hasnt gone the way of uber profit and offered an "express processing" option for $100 to get your permit in under a week.

??????????????????

 

AFAIK, all handgun transfers must go through a dealer in PA. I see NJ going that route if the aforementioned became law.

thats nothing, i saw bigfoot RIDING a unicorn, what now...

Yup, in PA handguns must be transferred though dealers, I believe there is also a way to transfer handguns privately by having the county sheriff or PASP run a NICS check and doing the paperwork on the buyer - not exactly sure how that works though.

That's a step in the right direction. I sent a letter to my reps a few years back asking them to sponsor something like this...

Well, Paul does run a gunshop.

 

This would make me happy. Find a quality dealer that will take care of his customers and I am a happy man.

 

I have. Paul is my guy, and if you live in S.J., he can be your regular dealer too.

The link you provided and the stat leg website shows that this law was just presented again on March 8, 2012. This should be something that we all should write our reps about, no?
