I did 2 months before my 18th, making a footnote on the application stating that I will be of legal age by the time I pick it up. It was ready a week before and I picked it up the morning of my 18th b-day.
I went out that very evening and bought a new remington 870. That was 16 years ago so,I dont know how things have changed, but it doesn't hurt to try. __________________ NRA LIFE MEMBER

At the time ,we had one of the coolest chiefs this township probably ever had. He's long since passed on. It all boils down to if they want to break your balls or not, so it depends on the town. __________________ NRA LIFE MEMBER

It doesnt hurt to use an officer as one of your references either. __________________ NRA LIFE MEMBER

raycapp,
FYI- State law restricts selling or giving handguns to juveniles under 21, and other firearms to juveniles under 18, except for supervised loans of firearms or for limited lawful activities (such as hunting). I dont think you can get a purchase permit for a pistol yet. But I would apply for the FID now and tell them your plan to have it after your 18th bday. BTW, I grew up in Milltown and got my FID there when I hit 18 too. Good luck... |

I found another thread that was from the state police. you actually might be OK.

My one Sgt. lives there now, since I sent him there |

| Ray, there is really nothing to browse. He is more of a Police Equipment Store, he does carry the full line of GLOCKS, as far as long guns, he has a few used and very few new. Whatever you want, ask for a price he is fair and upfront | ||
