I had a friend of mine pick up his firearms id card application and he informed me that they are requiring 4 references so I wrote the following:

 

I was recently informed by a friend of mine that you are requiring 4 references for a Firearms Identification Card. Per 2C:58-3f no other requirements shall be added. According to state law the only to forms required are SP-66 and S.T.S 033. The S.T.S 033 only requires 2 references.

 

2C:58-3f- There shall be no conditions or requirements added to the form or content of the application, or required by the licensing authority for the issuance of a permit or identification card, other than those that are specifically set forth in this chapter.

 

I hope you will review your policies on F.I.Ds and begin complying with state law. I decided not to publish this on your wall because I am not trying to make a scene publicly but I anticipate your cooperation.

 

Thank you

 

Do you think I was rude or could have added anything? This is obviously just an ice breaker but I felt something had to be done.

Open to opinions. Thanks guys.

Did you let NJ2AS know with their Operation Establish Compliance?

I believe it is well written and politely gets to the point.

I see nothing wrong with the letter.. Did your friend happen to list you as a reference? My only concern would be this may open him up to some additional unwanted scrutiny but way to fight the good fight.

Not yet, Their time and resources a valuable in other places right now. I will forward my correspondence to the NJ2AS if or when it becomes necessary.

He will be using other people for references and I will not bring up his name. I just told him to hold tight for a few days to see what happens.

Just checking... More power to you then.

Well if you do walk in to the place yourself to discuss this matter, try not to stare at their armbands & well padded caps

Interesting. Please do keep us posted.

I think it is very well stated, keep us in the loop please.

Back in January Medford only asked for 2 references as per. Update?

this is what was given to him and he was told that the forms couldn't have the same references. I emailed several times and called 2 times I received no response.

Why does Medford require 'fresh prints' if your prints on file are more than 5 years old? I changed address with prints more than 25 years old.

 

Looks increasingly like Medford is making up its own rules.
