Three! What pistols you plan getting? :-)
I've already got two pistols but thinking of getting another permit to get a .380.

Pistol permits in NJ most certainly take longer....then again, I have escaped and not only no longer need to concern myself with those pesky things, I have already gotten my CCW, which can be used at retail point of sale in lieu of NICS

Yep, NJSP took 5 months IIRC to issue me a new FOID after I moved last. Never again. I feel better knowing that if I had any money I could just walk in and buy something over here. |

Mine has been going on for quite a while but I didn't know I was supposed to request my own background check from the NJSP on their web site.
So basically my local 5 0 was waiting on NJSP response that was not forthcoming. Fvcking ridiculous. |

Just got the call that my ID Change of address and 2 pistol permits are completed. 58 days total, or 42 business days (because PD's are not doing paperwork on Sundays).
But thats up in Cranford, so no real help to the OP. |

In CA a mere 10 waiting period was ruled unconstitutional. We can hope. |

Just pointing out... and NOT necessarily you; when people don't vote, especially for/at the election of the dog catcher there are consequences. Some political hacks are appointed as per the specifics "Judge" or Judicial role and others voted in. When a Democratic leaning Judge is in position he will cobble his opinion(s) as per his political leanings, which then equates to selective enforcement of laws. We don't even abide by our own laws? |

Seems that Ewing PD in Mercer County has their shit together. Applied for my initial FID and a handgun purchase permit in 2011. The guy told me he tries to have them in 30 days and it was 30 on the nose. Unfortunately for me, I lost my initial card recently and wanted to purchase another rifle so I went down to the PD last Wednesday and had my duplicate yesterday, so I only had to wait 1 week.

In Paramus you can't use local PPD as a reference. Lol, plausible deniability. |

Not in this town, against policy. Other boroughs, etc. Perhaps ok. I wouldn't know. Well, I suppose the Paramus PD can have a policy that forbids their employees (LEOs) from answering reference letters. However, they can't (by law, anyway) prohibit YOU the applicant from listing LEOs from other jurisdictions as references. Specifically, the statute states: The application shall be signed by the applicant and shall contain as references the names and addresses of two reputable citizens personally acquainted with him. 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. A friend of mine recently applied for pistol permits at his local NJSP barracks (no local PD). The trooper at the desk even told him, "if you're going to use any of your cop friends as references, be sure you list their cell phone - since we can never get ahold of them on their home line, and they don't return our calls". If your PD is actually refusing applications because a listed reference is a LEO (again, outside of their jurisdiction), then they're just asking for a lawsuit. I'd start by having my attorney send a letter to their chief, referencing the above statutes (2C:58-3e and -3f), advising him that such a refusal will result in a lawsuit against his dept. - then go from there. |

Tom I will look for the exact wording... Most of this process is now available online, the original/pre online pistol purchase permit package from Paramus PD did have the reference restriction on it.
I would venture to guess that if you only had a police "friend" who could be a reference(s) then you may have a social issue.

Under the new PP protocols, I can not tell you if this currently stands as policy of PPD. |
