Has anyone been successful in getting a NJ non resident permit? On their website it seems that they are pretty specific with only giving out of state permits to people who are required by "work" to carry.

You know there's like literally 100 non-LEO permits in the whole state of NJ right? Forget out of state. They have that nonsense up to avoid lawsuits.

Even residents can't carry because they can't get carry licenses.

That's terrible. But good to know. Thanks guys
Oddly enough, except for carry, NJ is far better than NY for guns. But when it comes to carry, you have ZERO chance. Think NYC but statewide.

Really? Can't even own and possess hollow points.....in addition to no CC permits.
Not sure about CC permits but hollow points are allowed in NJ for hunting and target shooting and may be possessed in Sportsman's residence...

No one carries in nj except cops.
Hollow points are allowed. If you commit a crime while in possession of hp you get an extra charge.

Worst gun myth out there.
NJ has only slightly neutered AR's, no hand gun ownership permit, 15rd mags, online ammo sales, and you can allow someone to shoot your handguns.
Also, a big surprise to me that I couldn't believe when I found out: inheritance of handguns requires zero reporting to anyone. Perfectly legal to remove a gun from your dead pop's house and take it home.
If it wasn't for the fact that they tax pensions, I'd be moving there upon retirement.

I still would rather live in this gulag then in NJ. Carrying a pistol is definitely more important to me then a rifle with a pistol grip at home.
The way I see it, if NJ allowed SBR's, silencers, fully featured AR,s, and normal capacity magazines but no concealed carry, it's still better to live here where you can at least protect yourself on the street. The way I see it, a long gun at home does nothing for me out on the street. For home defense, I still have legal options that are adequate.
Here in NY if you want a fully featured long gun and magazines for SHTF defense, you can always have one in a box of seperate parts containing grips, short barrels, standard springs and followers for your Hex magazines, and oil filters for supression.
When the SHTF, laws will not matter unlike normal day to day life outside the home.

I tend to agree, but my statement was correct: other than carry, NJ is a far better place to be a firearms owner.

May I ask, In what aspect? I seems that CC is uncommon there? I only ask, I have no knowledge in this subject.
I respectfully disagree simply because the fact that I would much rather have the right to carry (with hollow points) over anything else. I know you said "other than carry", but IMO that trumps everything.

I stand corrected.
Doesn't change my opinion of the excessive restrictions NJ puts on CC.
I listed my reasons a few posts up. NJ has a few very favorable differences from NY. I do see the point on CC though, but must admit that my situation is different so that's not up on my list.

They are going to take away your gun rights, and possibly fire you, because you're clearly crazy.
How about Pennsylvania?
That's probably where I will end up. I've spent every summer of my life on the Jersey Shore and have family all over NJ though, so the draw is tempting.
