Is a Firearms Purchaser Identification Card required to buy ammunition in New Jersey?

Yes, for all ammunition
No
Yes, but only for handgun ammunition
Yes, but only for rifle and shotgun ammunition

The correct answer is: Yes, but only for handgun ammunition

In New Jersey, a Firearms Purchaser Identification Card is not required solely for the purchase of ammunition. The requirement for such a card primarily pertains to the purchasing of firearms and does not extend to ammunition purchases. Thus, the understanding surrounding the necessity for a Firearms Purchaser Identification Card specifically for handgun ammunition is not accurate under current New Jersey law. A Firearms Purchaser Identification Card is indeed necessary for buying firearms, but when it comes to ammunition, any individual who is legally allowed to purchase a firearm does not need this specific identification card to buy ammunition. Therefore, the requirements surrounding ammunition purchases do not include the need for a card, regardless of the type of ammunition. This understanding is essential for anyone engaged in purchasing ammunition legally within the state.
