Well I started the process last week.  I called to speak to person in charge of firearms permits and of course no answer, I left a message.

 

They called me back today, three business days later.  The officer asked what I called for and I told him I wanted to apply for more handgun purchase permits.  He said the next available appointment is 10:00 Tuesday July 2, 2013.  I said I want to hand in the applications. He said I can not hand in applications until July and if I try to apply before that I would be turned away.

 

That's right, can't even hand them the application for four weeks.  Reason for the delay is "because I have to start working on them when I get them and there are 22 people ahead of you."

 

So you can't even apply in Ewing without a BS wait.

 

Thanks for letting me vent.  I will keep you all posted as things develop.

 

 

Against the law...I had a friend who this happened to. He called SP and spoke with Sgt. Genova who is in charge on firearms division. He instructed my friend to contact the Chief and if that still didnt resolve the situation then he himself will call the Chief. Im not sure which route it took but he got his paper work in.

They expect you to back down. Disappoint them. Schedule an appointment with the Police chief. If he is not receptive, schedule one with the mayor. Keep making noise.

:wild: ... make some noise!!!!

That is exactly what I told my friend "squeaky hinge gets the oil" but he said he didnt want to step on any toes or cause waves to only have them delay him more...Good old new jersey for ya SMH

I am exploring my options for action and will definitely pursue whatever avenues I can to exercise my rights.
