Bill overview
This bill establishes a five-year pilot program in New Jersey to provide free firearms training to certain individuals seeking a firearms purchaser identification card, handgun permit, or concealed carry permit. The program will be overseen by the State Police in collaboration with the Attorney General, and participants must meet specific income requirements. Training will be offered in three counties, with an alternative voucher option available. The program’s effectiveness will be evaluated, and a report will be submitted to the Governor and Legislature to determine if it should continue, expand, or become permanent.
