Who is required to complete a Firearms Purchaser Identification Card (FPIC) application in New Jersey?

  1. Anyone purchasing a rifle or shotgun

  2. Only law enforcement officials

  3. Only private security personnel

  4. Non-residents of New Jersey only

The correct answer is: Anyone purchasing a rifle or shotgun

An application for a Firearms Purchaser Identification Card (FPIC) is required for anyone purchasing a rifle or shotgun in New Jersey. This means that B, C, and D are incorrect because they are not inclusive of all individuals who would require the FPIC. B and C only mention specific groups of people (law enforcement officials and private security personnel), while D only mentions non-residents of New Jersey. However, the question asks for who is "required" to complete the application, not who is "permitted" or "allowed" to complete the application. Therefore, A is the correct answer as it encompasses all individuals who are mandated to complete the FPIC application process in New Jersey.
