Clock Starts 2 permits

Featured Replies

Just put in for 2 permits. Was told 6-8 weeks, last time town did it in 5. Wonder if what's going on is adding to the wait. PD said that last January they processed 6 requests, this January I am 28.

On another note went to the store today and they had the exact gun that I wanted in stock Sig 229 Scorpion, bought it and it is now waiting for me in their safe.

 

Waiting Sucks. :-)

why kick yourself when you browse some more & want 3 instead of 2?

call them back for +1

I'm waiting on week #4. The wait definitely sucks REAL bad.

 

how much was the 229 scorpion? hopefully not too much over regular price. I ended up paying a bit more than I wanted

About $1050 which is around what I expected. Not sure what to get with permit 2.

Put my Permit in on 1/29 at 4:15 pm. One of my refrences recieved it via mail on 1/30 !! They said as soon as the letters come back I can pick them up. I had my FID in just over a week back in 09 !! Now to find that M&P shield in 9mm at a fair price.

Last time it was the same for me. Put my permit in on a Wed references received the letter on Friday. All in all took 5 weeks. Hopefully it will be the same this time.

71 what town was this?

Week 3 for me. My references received their letters a few days after I submitted paperwork. I heard it should take 4-6 weeks.

whattt..... its been 4 weeks for me and nothing has happened. my references are asking if i even submitted an application haha.. i guess i'm i'll be waiting forever

Lets see how long it takes for me in union and a friend also a member here from kenilworth we both handed it in today. 2 towns next to each other, lets see how long it takes. Big difference already how they handle Permits. In union new set of fingerprints and have to make an appointment, while in kenilworth just drop it off and you are good to go.

Day 2 - references received letters. WooHoo!

 

PD will get them back on Monday!

I've been waiting almost 2 months for a p2p. I've never waited longer than 5 weeks before. I knew it would be longer this time but this is really slow.

Rlsbee what county are you in?

Does anyone know if the PD's process the p2p applications in any particular order?

 

such as... going through the background check only after reference forms are received? or do PD's do everything at once?

 

got a call today letting me know that state background checks are taking much longer than usual, but then how are some of you guys getting your p2p's so quickly?

I dropped off paperwork for P2P yesterday and the women handling it indicated the State Police have told her to expect waits of up to six months!

6 months? Clark took literally only one month and I got my FID card and 1 P2P. That was also in January, so right in the heart of the buying craze.

I think the delay is the town and not NJSP. I heard of people getting stuff in under 1 month. My town normally takes 5 weeks but the pd told me it may take 6 - 8 based on volume. Last January they had 6 requests this January I was number 28 I believe. My town said the state was pretty quick.

I think its local as well. I got the whole "haven't heard back from state background checks yet" bit and when I look up the status of my money order for SBI, it hasnt been touched. I bet my paperworks been collecting dust this whole time.

 

Im getting tired of the wait. Took my pd a month to mail out reference forms and I know there isn't much going on in my town.

 

 

Coming up on 7 weeks now, my PD normally takes 4 tops. References received letters 3 days after drop off and returned immediately.

She also told the same thing to a friend but he is trying to get his FID as well as his P2P. I received my first permits in 5 weeks so I don't believe the town is at fault here, but we shall see!!!
