Background:
Active duty military stationed in the god forsaken state of New Jersey. I live in New Jersey. I do not have a NJ Drivers license. I already own a number of firearms, and was only looking to get a Firearms Purchase ID so I can buy pistol ammo. No other reason, and have been trying to avoid this as long as possible.
So a while back I talked with an officer at my local PD. He tells me that because I am Active duty I should be able to apply there and not need to go to the State PD. But he wasn't sure. Well today I stop by. The lady that handles the paperwork tells me that she had called a few months back about this very situation, and that I have to go to the State PD as she only can do it for people with a NJ drivers license. Ok, I'll go there.
So I stop by the state police department. He tells me that it doesn't matter, and I have to go to the local police department where I am living. I tell him I am an out of state resident, don't have a NJ drivers license, and was told by them to come here. I ask them if they can call them to explain, because if I go back they are just going to send me back here. Instead I pretty much got the "eff off" from them.
Seems to me like the State PD just didn't want to deal with me. I guess I'll just buy my ammo online and out of state. This is ridiculous. I hate this state.
