 Firearms Applicant Investigative Guide Book Refresher

The State Regulatory Bureau has recently revised the "Firearms Applicant Investigative Guide Book". Members of the New Jersey State Police Firearms Investigation Unit will be presenting a four hour block of instruction on the revisions. This training is designed to familiarize your personnel with the proper use of the guide book. The guide explains in detail the process for investigating applicants for: Firearms Purchaser Identification Card, Permit to Purchase a Handgun and Duplicate Firearms Purchaser Identification Card. Additionally, the guide book details all of the forms and fees associated with processing applicants for firearms permits. It addresses frequently asked questions about New Jersey's firearms laws and introduces a mechanism for investigators to record their findings when investigating firearms permit applicants.

Questions about this course should be addressed to Detective Sergeant First Class Barry Bowers, NJSP Firearms Investigation Unit, at (609) 882-2000 ext. 2664.

Course is not currently scheduled.
