  1. Easiest way is you and your Mother walk into an FFL in Maine, explain the circumstances, and he does the transfer for a small fee..easy peasy, and the least amount of hassle.. otherwise it entails shipping the rifle to an FFL here, and incurring shipping, transfer and NICS fees and taxes.

     

    Thanks, that makes sense. Hopefully I can find a FFL that isn't too far away from her current, or new location.


  2. All,

    I'm a new member so go easy.. I haven't had a chance to do an indept search yet.. but I had a question regarding inheriting a rifle from out of state. Here are the details:

     

    My parents lived in Maine and my father passed a few years ago. At the time the family got together and distributed his belongings that my mother didn't want, including a Remington 760 .257 that I wanted. My mother is now downsizing and I want to get it down from ME to NJ. The question is how.

     

    So multiple questions:

    -- Does this count as inheritance? There was a will but it did not itemize anything. I haven't read it verbatim but I believe it was along the lines of "mom and the kids get everything". What do I need to ask to even find out?

    -- Assuming it was 'inherited', how can I transport the rifle from ME to NJ? Since I'll be helping her move I'd like to just drive it back. Can I? What procautions do I need to take? Assuming its not considdered inherited, what are my options?

     

    FInally, and not legal related.. what can you guys tell me about the Remington 760 in .257? I had never seen a pump-action rifle before and found it unique.. and reading online it sounds like a very popular firearm..

     

    Ok, one more. This thing probably hasn't been fired in 20 years. Any recommended gunsmiths in the Mount Laurel/Moorestown area?

     

    Thanks for helping the newb.


  3. It's a bit of a hike for you, but if you want we're having a "meet & greet" at Starbucks in Hopewell Twp tomorrow (6/13) at 6 PM.

     

    I appreciate the invite but I won't be able to make it given the distance and that it's mid-week. Next time, perhaps!


  4. Another new member from Burlington County! My wife and I just started shooting. We wanted to get more involved with home defense. Before we did anything I wanted us both to take the basic pistol class since neither one of us was too familiar with firearms in general. To my surprise my wife actually enjoyed shooting and wants to get her own eventually.

     

    Since then I've gotten the FID and P2P and picked up a used Sig 226 from Lawman's. Only had it out on the range once but so far it's been very nice.

     

    So far on this site I've found the Range list extremely useful. Since my wife wants to get a pistol I'm trying to find places nearby that would let us rent so she can try out a few options first.
