A 161 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Clarifies that licensed dealers may provide firearms for display at fund raising events sponsored by certain tax exempt organizations.

This bill clarifies that licensed firearms dealers may legally provide firearms for display at fundraising events hosted by tax-exempt organizations (specifically those recognized under IRS Section 501(c)(3)). It directly affects licensed dealers and qualifying nonprofit organizations. The key provision requires dealers to provide timely notice to the superintendent of police and to carry firearms in accordance with existing regulations (subsection g). The bill removes ambiguity about whether dealers can lawfully transport and display firearms for these specific fundraising purposes under New Jersey law.
