Online State Police Name Check for Pistol Permit?

Recommended Posts

So I applied for a Pistol permit and my local PD is asking me to complete this:

 

https://www.njportal.com/njsp/criminalrecords/

 

It costs $20 bucks, usually permits were $2. Is this something new? I have almost 30 handguns and never had to do this. Can anyone shed some light on if its something I really have to do? Here are the instructions they gave me:

 

ON LINE FORM 212A, a highlighted block located on the lower left side of the page.
 
- In the ORI number box put 
 
- Follow the prompts for demographic and payment information.
 
- Upon completion of the form you will receive an email Confirmation & Receipt that will include a confirmation number.
 
- At this time the request will be forwarded to the Police Department’s work queue for approval and submission to the NJ State Police for processing.
 
- If more detailed information is needed click on the Help Tab, located on the top right side of the page.

I just picked up a pistol permit yesterday from my local PD, do you have to do it online?

 

they started that process a few months ago

 

When the permit comes in I am going to be giving you a call for a pistol I want.

Yep my town started this a couple months ago also. Instead of $18 money order, its $20 online with your credit card. The town will still collect the $2 per permit. So really I think it was worth it, $2 I don't have to deal with the post office. & my permits came back in 17days instead of 3 months. Its way faster for the town = way faster for you!

Very Simply, there once was (and for some depts. still is) a hard copy form to fill out for the "background check" that is done on each subsequent P2P request, instead of the full "MorphoTrak" fingerprint thing. It cost $18.00, instead of MorphoTrak's $57.00 + change.

 

The above is a new "electronic" version of that old hard copy form. It cost $20.00 instead of $18.00.  It has no effect on the costs of FIDs or P2Ps, which are still $5.00 and $2.00 each, respectively. Some departments (like mine) have implemented this new "electronic SB212a" form... some have not yet.

Thanks, my local PD gave me the hard copy form to fill out for my background check. One think I thought was weird is that the person working the firearms stuff told me to get it back to them ASAP. I thought that was kinda weird, anyone have any thoughts?

They're looking to fill their quota for arrests this month?

I know some towns batch up the paperwork and do it at intervals. They may just be suggesting it because the pile is getting big and it's about that time. Alternatively, it could just be that someone is going on or coming back form vacation.

Well, either way, the local PD still has to inquire with the NJSP SBI unit. Either they send the form, or they use the eelctronic receipt number you provide them from going on line to fill out the electronic form.  What might be facilitated is the "record keeping." That is, with the electronic form, as long as you give your local PD the correct receipt number, there is less  a chance I think of there being a "clerical error" that might delay processing. I'm not sure if the "results" come back the same way it was sent in or not (ie. "electronic results" if sent in electronically, or "hard copy" results if sent in hard copy), or if it is all electronic results or whatever. I would hope "electronic results" in all cases, again, to avoid clerical errors.

 

I guess the "time" taken involves whatever the NJSP has to do to "produce" the results, in either form. :)

    • I very seriously doubt this has anything to do with terrorism.    1) Harbor pilots are VERY seriously vetted, and highly trained. Not to mention extremely well paid. My experience knowing a few of them, and knowing how they are recruited and screened tells me that there is a slim to highly unlikely chance that a harbor pilot would have participated in anything like that.    2) Maintenance of foreign flag ships is well known to be dubious. Especially these days. These were NOT US flag, Jones act sailors. It was (to my understanding) a largely Indian crew on that ship, with a Ukrainian Captain. Indian crews are not exactly known for being stellar.    3) The bunkers (fuel) these ships use is ‘Bunker C’, which is a heavy, dirty fuel oil that can, and usually is, pretty contaminated. This stuff ain’t your car grade gasoline or diesel fuel. It’s nasty.   It requires nearly constant filter changes and maintenance to the engine/generators. The ship took on fuel prior to departing port, which would stir up all kinds of shit in the fuel tanks, which would contribute to particulates in the fuel lines/filters.    4) I’d say the posting of the chief engineer for Maserek above was pretty spot on as far as chain of events.    This was a shitty accident, with horrible timing and outcome. Not a terror attack. 
    • I saw Lara's interview on Bannon's War Room, and that gave me pause for thought. Her conjecture depends primarily on the veracity of her sources. Regardless, if it's not applicable in any way to this ship disaster, the methods described seem valid to me. And worthy of consideration for the future. As I said before, IMO something is coming.
