Exempts certain veterans from field or live-fire range portion of hunter gun safety course.
This bill exempts eligible veterans from completing the live-fire range portion of New Jersey's required hunter gun safety course. Veterans must provide proof of honorable military discharge or service (including WWII Merchant Marine members eligible for VA benefits) to qualify for the exemption. The exemption applies only to the practical range component of the course, not the entire safety training. This change simplifies the licensing process for veterans who already have relevant firearms training.
