    You also didn't mention if it has to be new or used. Used opens a lot more choices.

    Here is a site that is in each state. You might have to log on,  account is free. Right now there are 152 rifles for sale in NJ. One thing about this site, you can buy a gun FTF, unlike the internet auction sites.

    Okay thats good info. I think I will be buying new. I personally don't like buying used from bad past experience.

    It might actually be the opposite.

    A local shop can order the gun from one of its regular suppliers, mark it up a fair amount and transfer it to you with a $16 or so NICS check. 

    If you order a gun from online, they will charge you to ship it to a local shop ($25-50). The local shop will charge you a transfer fee and the NICS check. I think the going rate for a transfer is around $50 including NICS. So, the transfer fee is roughly $35. Buying online costs you $25-50 shipping plus a $ 35 transfer fee.....costs you would avoid by buying local. Either way, you pay for the NICS.

    I would try local first.

    Okay thanks for that info!

    Remember this next time you hit the voting booth..

    NJ politicians want to make buying this rifle as hard it can be. The fact the company wont even ship to NJ makes them very happy.

    That is my priority when i choose who to vote for.

    Not really. If it's just an AR, why not just buy one here or buy a stripped lower at your LGS and get all the exact components you want online to build an identical rifle as the one on Gallery of Guns?  You can even have the same adjustable stock and just pin it yourself!

    Its a specific brand. I'm looking at the Sig M400 Tread or the MCX Virtus. The Tread has a collapsing stock while the MCX has a foldable stock.

    It is doable but the seller would have to be willing to ship it to an FFL in the PRNJ who is willing to pin or replace the stock to make it compliant prior to the transfer to you.  

    Do you know if the process is a headache?

    Short answer: possibly.

    Longer answer, post what you're looking at and people here can most certainly give you a definitive answer.

    Also, read this page. #15 specifically may help you. https://www.njsp.org/firearms/firearms-faqs.shtml

     

    Yea what i'm looking at is the rifle has a collapsing stock so that would make it "illegal" in NJ. I'll have to get the weapon with a fixed stock and I was wondering if I could get a gunsmith or a dealer to swap out the stock.

    So i'm looking to buy a rifle, but galleryofguns.com seem to have the rifle as restricted. Is there a way I can have the rifle made NJ compliant? Is it possible for me to have it sent to a gunsmith outside of NJ and have him make it compliant? Or can I have a gunsmith in NJ get the rifle and do the work for me?

    It sounds like you know what you want already?

    If so... top of the page (if you're not on mobile view) click "More" then "Gun Price Requests", fill out the form and the FFLs we have here will respond.

    You can also try posting in the "Want to Buy" section.

    Most dealers can order what you want if they don't have it in stock also. It might take longer now, but you said you're still waiting for your FID also.

    Yea i'm looking at a specific rifle and pistol. Just deciding which i'm going to buy first. Since I didn't apply for a P2P, it looks like I'll buy the rifle.

    Thanks for the info!

    Most shops can just order a specific gun from the manufacturer if they don't have in stock something specific you want.

    That sounds great! I was hoping there was a system like that in place. Do you know if you would pay extra fee's if someone had to do that?

    Since you didn't list a location in your profile we have no idea who is in your area to recommend. It would help us to know where you are and maybe even the specific rifle you are looking for.

    Adios,

    Pizza Bob

    I live in Hudson County, i''m willing to travel upwards of an hour away to find a good gun store/range. Me and my brother already have a range in PA where he lives so we usually go there, but i'm hoping to find a place near me where I can shoot weekly.

    Look up www.galleryofguns.com.  They’re a reputable site that already has several NJ FFLs in their network.  If the rifle is there, you can order/pay for part of the rifle and they will ship it the FFL that’s closest to your location.   From there you just wait for the FFL to call saying it’s there.  Pay the difference in price plus others fees and you’re all set.

    nice part of the site is they have some exclusive option and promise a lifetime warranty on the firearm...

    Thanks for that! I'll keep that page tabbed to look for guns.

    Yes, purchase online, have it sent to your local FFL from the online dealer, than pick up/pay transfer fee/NICS. Note if the website you're purchasing it from does not have your FFL on file you will need to have their FFL license forwarded to them to complete the sale.

    Do you know of any websites for me to check? I found one but seems like an eBay where you bid on guns. Or would you purchase from the manufacturer directly and then give all that info to the manufacturer?

     

    Would I be able to go to a gun dealer and have him order the firearm for me?

     

    I'm sorry but I've only bought a pistol in Alaska so I bought a gun from a guy and did a bill of sale and that was the only gun transaction I've ever done.

    Hey guys! Army vet here, I was wondering if someone can help me with trying to purchase a firearm. I'm waiting for my FID and I've been doing research on what rifles I want to buy. How do I go about buying a rifle that say my local dealership doesn't have? Is there a way to have a rifle purchased online and delivered to my local dealer as long as they are aware?
