But then, crossing into NJ and possessing my guns without a proper NJ license isn't exactly legal either.

It's black matte. I bought the gun around 2002 and put less than 2000 rounds through it - shot a box of 50 every 6 months or so when ammo became too expensive. Haven't shot it in about 3 years because I can't mail-order ammo any longer (Hello NYC!) and don't go out much to where gun stores are. I'll throw in a couple of boxes of brass if you reload. I'll need to do some research on pricing and more importantly - local FFL guy to do the transfer. I'm very reasonable and easy to negotiate with as far as price goes.

Thanks, everyone. My real concern is what I do with my guns in the period when I move to NJ and get my licenses. NYC requires me to either surrender my guns or show how I disposed of them when I hand in my licenses, so I'm looking for a way to legally "store" them with a FFL dealer or a store. I'm actually looking forward to moving to NJ and not have to deal with ridiculously bad NYC laws or having to drive 2 hrs to a range.

Hello everyone. We're seriously considering moving from NYC to NJ within the next year. I currently possess NYC handgun and NYC rifle/shotgun licenses which I'll have to give up when we move. I'm intending to apply for equivalent NJ licenses as soon as we move and I'd really like to keep most of my guns I currently own in NYC. How can I legally do that? Right now I have the following handguns: Sig P226 9mm - Would love to keep it, but can sell and get a new one once I get my NJ license. Desert Eagle .44 Win-Mag - which I intend to sell M1895 Nagant revolver 7.62mm - that's the one I'm not willing to part with Rifles: SKS 7.62 - Will sell if these are not legal in NJ IZHMASH Biathlon .22 LR - would like to keep it 3 Mosin-Nagant rifles, one is a sniper version - would love to keep all 3. Has anyone had any experience moving from NYC and re-obtaining their licenses/guns? I was thinking transferring the guns to a licensed NJ resident via a FFL dealer and transferring back once I get my licenses, but there are quite a few pitfalls with that. Any ideas or suggestions are very welcome and much appreciated. Thanks.
