No updates on the fees or anything? It's still about 5-600$ all in to get the permit?

View Quote The excessive fees are still in court and there's no update as of yet from the 3rd circuit. As for the total price for a PTC you'll need find the best price on CCARE. In the recent past I've seem some private instructors want to charge as high as $500 for a class and then I've seen several as low as $150. So you'll need to shop around to see who has the best price you're willing to pay. Don't forget that the training is good for 2 years. So if you apply for your PTC today with your training, you'll be able to use the same paperwork when you apply early for your renewal if you time it right. That's what I did today. I've qualified twice since 2022 and today I applied using my pre-CCARE HQC2 modified qualification so I could get rid of my judge issued permit and also, fingers crossed, beat any of Murphy's proposed fee increases, such as raising the PTC fee from $200 to $400 If the legislature agrees with the unconstitutional increase, then Murphy will need to sign the new unconstitutional law before the new fiscal year which starts on July 1st of this year. Here's what it cost me today for my initial online application: $50.00 paid online plus $5.00 online service fee for the CCW application and $150.00 for my town's police department (I hand delivered a check to them. Check with your PD how they want payment, online or in person) $18.00 for the 212A background check plus $3.00 online service fee. I paid $76.00 online plus $150.00 check to my PD. Total: $226.00 |

Two of his friends were going and wanted him to go with them. It was being given by an instructor from one of the gun ranges up north and he was charging $500 for the class and live fire. It sounded shady to me because this class wasn't being advertised by the range but instead by word of mouth. Needless to say I talked my son in law out of going and paying that ridiculous price. Since then I've taught my son in law how to safely draw and re-holster and he'll soon be signing up for much less expensive class. |

From what I gathered, it was a side hustle by the instructor and he had no problem finding gullible people who wanted a CCW to fill his class. |

Jumped through all the hoops and waiting for NJSP Totowa ... poor guys are probably deluged with applications...
I did my live fire qual too early (last Fall...25 yds). Had to redo a little while ago with the 15 yd qual at Gun For Hire. Was fun being at the range in view of the Manhattan skyline. |

View Quote It's all electronic now with no paperwork to shuffle for the Totowa guys. The hardest part for your application will probably be the mental health form from CT. Hopefully that will get verified quickly for you. As a former Manhattanite, the Manhattan skyline is a sight to see and is best viewed from across the river |

I submitted for my new permit ahead of the fee increase... Seeing as this is my first online application, does anyone know when I should go drop off my check to the municipal PD? I seem to recall getting an email from the local Det. last time, but honestly don't remember.
I also noted that the NJSP site still doesn't appear to have a renewal process that is different than the new application. I'm hoping that it won't matter, as I wanted the new app process so I can get rid of this silly court order. |

View Quote The reason I didn't wait to pay until they contacted me is because I was afraid they'd take their sweet time investigating and then request payment after Murphy jacked up the prices. Yeah, there wont be any renewal option on the portal for about another 2 years. That's because all applications there are intial and the judge issued permits aren't in the system. So all of us have to do the initial application. |

Forgot to mention that I applied for a purchase permit this past Sunday night. Monday morning I got an email from my town that said payment was due and that they wouldn't begin the process until I paid up.
So I recommend paying ASAP if you want to beat the proposed price hikes. |

For D.C. you have to go down in person to apply. D.C. CCW For Maryland you're required to be printed by a Maryland fingerprint company and get training from a Maryland instructor but if you're former military the training is waived. There are several Maryland approved instructors in NJ and at least one of them that I've heard of gets a Maryland print company to come to NJ so you don't have to travel to Maryland to get printed.

Disregarding the trying to get through TSA with a loaded pistol aside, not on his body I get it if it was in his carry on, and certainly fault this guy for being stupid... But, in a holster and in a bag that is on your body should* be gtg. When he took his bag off for security screening, I guess it was no longer on his body. Of course this same punishment also applies to a felony level conviction for not having your pdf printout on your person when carrying, which is more egregious IMO. *I recognize that should doesn't necessarily translate to legal in NJ. |
