    Default LEOSA Question

    I am a retired officer from New Jersey and would like to know if a permit in Northampton County would designate that Im retired so that I can carry in NJ under LEOSA? My permit to carry in NJ says I am a retired officer so I can carry anywhere I go I guess.

    A PA License To Carry Firearms (LTCF) would not make any mention at all of you being a retired LEO. To carry under LEOSA, you need a RETIRED photo ID card from your former police department and proof that you have qualified with your firearm recently.

    See here for details of LEOSA.

    No, In Jersey all I need is the Permit to carry ID. The permit says "Retired" PO.
    The State Police in PA should just have an ID made up for retired Officers after doing a background of course.And yes of course you have to do bi-annual qualifications, 2x a year quals yes of course Im with that. I just wish that in PA they would do that for retirees! from PA and other states.

    This might help you...it is PA specific in regard to LEOSA.

    I just wish NJ would honor my residential PA CCW, (or any other state for that matter) but I guess we can't always get what we want.
