From what I've read about NJPs, they're not going to be treated as criminal issues.

That said, if I were going to be doing something that could result in anything from a bunch of annoyance up to a lifetime disqualifier - applying for any firearms license in this state - then I'd ask for some real legal knowledge if I were unclear in the least. I hate to be the "call a lawyer" guy, but it's likely that this question could be answered by an attorney specializing in the area during an initial consult.

IANAL, but I've got more experience than I'd like as a PIO and IO - my own fault because I've always taken the PIO thing quite seriously and done my homework and made damn sure of every word I write and every recommendation I've made.

That said, no need to even go that far into it. What does "NJP" stand for?

There you go...

Non-judicial punishment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"A non-judicial punishment (NJP) in the United States Armed Forces is a form of military justice authorized by Article 15 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Non-judicial punishment or "NJP" permits commanders to administratively discipline troops without a court-martial. Punishment can range from reprimand to reduction in rank, correctional custody (aboard ships only), loss of pay, extra duty, and/or restrictions. The receipt of non-judicial punishment does not constitute a criminal conviction (it's equivalent to a civil action), but is often placed in the service record of the individual. The process for non-judicial punishment is governed by Part V of the Manual for Courts-Martial and by each service branch's regulations."

Appreciate the long explanation (not being sarcastic), but like I said, no need to go that far into it. It's an administrative action.
