Not bragging, but want to let people know that it can be done.

 

FWIW, my small police department has turned around my PP requests in 25 days, including weekends. They didn't contact any of my references or send a BS questionnaire to them to fill out like I have to do for my friends who live in Bloomfield, Madison, and Millburn. And for the first time, I didn't use my two usual references who are both LEO's. One is a Sgt in town and the other a Lt a few towns to the north.

<== 23 days for initial FPID with 2 permits. 15 minutes after my references got the call, I got mine to pick up. 30 minutes after that, I did.

Hopewell. Awwwww yisss....

 

They apparently don't check my references anymore. Got mine in a couple weeks

Oh, and 7 minutes for an extension.

I've been waiting over 6 months in South River.  I was told last week they hope to get it to me before thanksgiving.

I guess it is our small towns that have a larger then average hunting population that makes the process less 'criminal'.

 

Case in point. Last year a middle school kid brought in an AirSoft gun to school to show off. Teacher saw it, grabbed kid brought him down to the principal. Police were called in, principal was told to stand down and chil'lax (he was a VP in Newark prior). Parents notified, kid disciplined.....no media circus. The way it ought to be done.

Congrats and glad to hear it is working in at least some towns which shows that it CAN be done.  I notice that more and more PDs are going ahead without the reference check, my last batch of P2Ps they never contacted my references either and I go through the NJSP.

 

Glad to hear it and maybe things will start to get better for the rest of us.

Dropping off paperwork today in Millville for 2 P2P. Last set was right about 60 days. hopefully these will be quicker. There is A new Sig just calling my name at Buds Gunshop!

I can teach the Sig P220 Compact that I am selling to sing your name versus call it.

My town is the same. Small, rural and lots if hunters.

well, we'll see if lindenwold does it. i doubt they will. it's still infringing on our rights though.
