Does the permit allow you to carry.
No but NJ has really eased up on concealed carry and it's fairly easy. Everyone I know who has wanted to cc passed easily. It's also a two year license. No open carry though. I'm sure the gun ranges are happy with the money they're making from the CCW courses
These are the requirements:
The training requirements are explained in N.J.A.C. 13:54-2.4(B) and 2C:58-4. These statutes require that a person wishing to meet the requirements of concealed carry attend and receive training and pass a qualification course of fire. The process consists of:
1.) A demonstration of safe handling and use of handguns (proficiency) as per N.J.S.A. 2C:58-4
2.) Submission of the applicant’s most recent handgun qualification scores utilizing the handgun(s) he or she intends to carry as evidenced by test firings administered by a certified firearms instructor of a police academy, a certified firearms instructor of the National Rifle Association, or any other recognized certified firearms instructor
3.) Use of Deadly Force Training.
The Tactical Training Center offers a training program designed to meet and exceed the training requirements for the concealed carry application. Our instructors have experience and certifications far exceeding those at other ranges.
The new modifications to NJ 2C:58-4 are…
