Governor Jon Corzine (D-NJ) signed Assembly Bill 339/Senate Bill 1774 into law on Thursday, according to a release by the National Rifle Association.
This bill would prohibit an individual from purchasing more than one handgun within a 30-day period. The state already requires an individual to first obtain a permit to purchase a process which includes an extensive criminal background check and a minimum of 30 days to complete. The NRA says the bill is just another step that anti-gun legislators are trying to take to erode our right to keep and bear arms.
This legislation gives anti-gun extremists carte blanche to further hinder your right to purchase firearms, according to the NRA.
