I have a state and federal background and fingerprint check done 2 years ago by the county prosecutors office when i did a 1 year internship there.. do i still need to get printed and pay the 60.25 doller fee for that? or is there a special paper that can be sent in or anything?

 

where is there a range close to east rutherford that i can get a feel for what handgun i like best?

 

are there meets where i can pay a given amount to shoot a bunch of different guns?

 

are there any NJ clubs i can join pertaining this sport?

 

how do i get into sport shooting challenges and whatnot?

Not sure about the finger prints, but the Bullet Hole could be closest range for u. If u look at some previous post there a few places in PA that allow you to try all types of firearms, but most ranges in NJ will have pistols for rent. There are several clubs in NJ, both public and private, not sure in your area, but near me I have a handful of membership options

how much is it to rent a range pistol usually?

Brick Armory, $10 for the firearm, plus you buy the ammo.

 

Shore shot is $15.

how much is the ammo?!?!??

Prices vary depeding on caliber but 9mm usualy 15-17 at shore shot

how many rounds is that for 17 dollers? any ranges you can shoot shotgun or rifle in jersey? outdoor ranges?

 

 

the main reason im getting into this is for 2 reasons.... protection and sport shooting... I am also on the path for getting a government job as well..... it cant hurt to be good at shooting before i go to the academy...

most handgun ammo is 50 rounds.

I am fairly certain they will still do background check and will do prints.

 

both brick armory and bullet hole let you shoot up to 50bmg indoors. well, brick does, bullet hole let's you shoot rifles, but don't know up to what caliber.

where is there a range close to east rutherford that i can get a feel for what handgun i like best? The question is, what do you want to do with your handgun? Compete? What type? Or do you just want a plinker or a self-defense pistol?

 

are there meets where i can pay a given amount to shoot a bunch of different guns? The Sunset range in Pennsylvannia rents pistols. Do a search and you will find them. However, you can change the grips on many pistols so even if you don't like the feel, you can change it

 

 

are there any NJ clubs i can join pertaining this sport? The closest private ranges would be Cherry Ridge in Vernon, Shongum in Mansfield and the Bridgewater range.

 

 

how do i get into sport shooting challenges and whatnot? USPSA at Shongum is easy, just check the web site and see when the next match is scheduled. Watch a match. You have to be comfortable drawing from a holster, changing magazines and above all, you must handle your pistol safely.

 

PM me with questions and welcome to the sport. The addiction begins.

If you have your SBI number, the state may let you slide but don't bet on it. You would have to check with the submitting agency to possibly obtain the SBI number. It is printed on the returned fingerprint card(s).

 

Box 15 of the NJ STS-33 lists a space for the NJ FID card number. They may accept an application for a FID card with only a SBI number. The agency you apply through can get the answer fro the NJSP Firearm's Unit. A civilian requesting that information may or may not get an answer and if the agency issuing accepts your work is unsure so let them get the answer directly.

 

Another issue is the state might want to re-check prints depending on when your initial prints were checked. Also be aware that ever set of prints submitted do not result in a SBI being issued. depends on why they were submitted. Some submissions only will return any criminal records and are used for employment issues such as SEC bonding.

 

As the state changes their procedures from time to time, you may find some changes have been made so don't rely on these comments in total. I haven't processed any in a few years.

It also depends if you have the same residence. My friend moved and they made him get fingerprinted again. Free money for the state...

This individual never had a NJ FID card. You are saying that your friend was simply requesting a change of residence modification. Two different animals entirely.
