Regs for Buying Ammo in NJ

[PK90 3,570]

FWIW, Dicks asked me for an FID to buy 5.56mm

 

edit: this was Paramus last November, and they logged it as handgun ammo

 

Are you sure it wasn't HP ammo?

Its a moot point,  you ain't gonna find any .22 anyway.

Palmeto State Armory has all kinds of .22 in stock, even bricks.

I have been buying ammo from Dick's in paramus for the last 6 years and they never asked for my FPID or logged any rifle ammo purchases including .223/5.56.

Good thing you didn't buy a Troy rifle from them.

Next trip ask them what ID you need to buy a Troy AR to go with it.

 

But they dont...hmmm...is this a trick question?

It was Independence 5.56mm FMJ that went on sale for Black Friday last year. I was there on the Saturday afternoon following the Black Friday. It's my only time buying rifle ammo there, and since it was on a busy shopping day, it's possible I was just dealing with someone that didn't usually work the department and didn't know the difference (I remembered another customer asking the guy if the 5.56mm on sale would also work with the .223 chambered rifle and he didn't know the answer). I mentioned that I thought only handgun ammo was to be logged and his response was that they log some rifle ammo purchases anyways and I just let it go.

You do know the Troy Rifle story? I don't want to bother if it's a dead horse.

Not at those prices,  cheapest was 10 cents per round,  i can reload 9mm  and .38 spl . cheaper than that....

Can or must?  If I buy .38sp or 9mm I MUST hand over my FID.  The last time I bought .22LR in NJ, which was a very long time ago, no such requirement was in place.

Must as per NJSP.
