I know there is a lot of bad information swirling around out there. Do I have to reshoot? Do I have to take the whole class over? Why has no one contacted me?  Some local departments are requiring everyone to have the new qualification page, S.P.182 PTC Safe Handling and Proficiency Certification signed and re-submitted. Other departments are not. 

 

Some issues I have heard regarding initial qualifications and the need to requalify are: “Students did not shoot from a holster,” "Student’s shot only 40 rounds,” and “Students did not cover deadly force or handgun safety.”  We covered all of those points in our classes.

 

At this time the New Jersey State Police has not sent any notices or paperwork out to those who live in State Police areas.  If you live in a municipality that has a local police department, contact them and see what they are requiring to satisfy their department. 

 

If your department is requiring you to have the new S.P. 182 signed,                              to access the form.
