Permits certain special law enforcement officers to carry firearms at all times when in State.

This bill allows certain Class Two special law enforcement officers in New Jersey to carry firearms at all times while in the state, under specific conditions. It directly affects officers employed by municipalities with over 300,000 residents who work at least 35 hours weekly, meet residency requirements, and complete 280 hours of required training (covering arrest, search, criminal law, and deadly force) plus annual firearm qualification. The key provision permits off-duty carry only after successfully completing the training and obtaining an annual permit from the chief of police, which can be revoked. This replaces the prior rule requiring officers to return firearms at the end of their workday.
