Establishes priority for firearm-related background checks for applicants with domestic violence restraining orders.

The bill amends New Jersey law to prioritize background checks for applicants seeking a firearms purchaser identification card, permit to purchase a handgun, or permit to carry a handgun if they have obtained a domestic violence restraining order. The background investigation of such applicants must take precedence over other applicants. The bill also outlines the process for obtaining these permits, including application requirements, fees, and the role of law enforcement in the approval process.
