Applying for FID questions

Hi, I will be applying soon for my firearms license. Was wondering how much it costs after finger prints and normal fees. Also I live in Hunterdon county I read a few places that sometimes it can take upwards of 60 days just wanted to see if anyone has had first hand experience with this?

Welcome DylanAlm33!

You are reminding me I need to apply for more permits :wink:

Wait times vary depending on how far down the queue you are when you submit. Nothing to be concerned about it happens when it happens. Total fees will depend on if also getting handgun permit(s). $50 for the FPID and $25/handgun permit.

Ok thanks. Another question since you seem knowledgeable. Would should I start doing now while waiting for my application to get processed? I figured it be a good idea to start learning about the many laws and regulations.

Well, what experience do you have so far? You should familiarize yourself with the existing gun laws. When you find something conflicting, absurd or confusing please come back and ask questions or vent about your frustrations :+1:

Hit the range and rent a few pistols you think you will be interested in, try before you buy.
