  1. Yeah that's what I thought. I read this rule/regulation over and over again before we headed over to the FFL. Now that he had me remove the stock, doesn't it make my shotgun NOW illegal since it's most likely less than 26" overall? Would the Mossberg 500 Tactical be considered a semi-automatic shotgun though? It does say it has '6' for capacity. But I think I have to pump it every time I need to chamber a round/shell?
  2. While his assistant was processing NICS, and other paperwork, he was inspecting the shotgun. Thought it was a pinned stock at first until he discovered it is adjustable. Kind of disappointed seeing my cousin as I had to dispose of the adjustable stock in front of him (he lives in VA and they don't have this kind of rule over there).
  3. Thought I'd update this thread: FFL transfer went through OK, had to have a NICS checki, fill out ATF Form 4473 and a Certificate of Eligibility to complete the transfer. Thanks everybody who chimed in. However, the FFL told me to get rid of the adjustable stock that was attached to the shotgun (it's a Mossberg 500 tactical). He said he could not release the shotgun to me if I don't throw the adjustable stock in the dumpster. Is this accurate? I have read that the only time the adjustable stock was illegal was if it's attached to a semi-automatic shotgun (and nothing about a pump-action shotgun with an adjustable stock) AND it has one of the any other "evil" feature (e.g. a pistol grip) . Can someone confirm? PS FFL had also pointed out that the barrel tip of the Mossberg 500 Tactical may be illegal in NJ, but he isn't sure (I believe it's called a breaching barrel?) Sigh
  4. Makes sense. Thank you for your response. So in short: Incoming to FFL -> Gift-giver/seller ID (in states like Virginia where they don't have any firearms ID of sort, do they provide any other government ID?) Outgoing from FFL -> NJ FPIC, NICS, transfer fee, etc.
  5. Thanks @JohnnyB I just have a question from this link (NRA-ILA) : https://www.nraila.org/gun-laws/state-gun-laws/new-jersey/ It has this part: "Possession It is unlawful to knowingly possess any handgun, including any antique handgun, without first having obtained a Permit to Carry, and it is unlawful to knowingly possess any rifle or shotgun without having first obtained a Firearms Purchaser Identification Card (FID), however, no Permit to Carry or FID is required: To keep or carry any firearm about a person’s place of business, residence, premises, or other land owned or possessed by him; a place of business shall be deemed a fixed location." Even if I have the FID, and I have the firearm in my residence, would that be still considered a violation of this? I might be missing something here..
  6. I'm in the Ringwood/West Milford area in Passaic County. Looks like Thunder Mt. does charge $70 for the NICS + FFL transfers.. Thanks for sharing that Google Doc. Bookmarked!
  7. Thank you! I did try to search for terms like out-of-state but could not find any. This is very valuable information. I have a couple of questions: 1. How much do FFLs usually charge for these transfers? Is $75 too much? I know with the NICS there is a standard charge. And, 2. Should the gift-giver be the one to take the firearm to the FFL? Or I can drive to the FFL myself (it's 5 minutes away). (My apologies if these questions have been answered elsewhere, I did try to search ahead.. sorry.)
  8. 1. Application type (FID/permit w/ existing FID) : First-time FID, 3 permits to purchase 2. Police Department where you applied. : Ringwood PD 3. Name of the person you dealt with at the PD. : Did not get his name 4. Time taken to issue FID and/or permit. 8 weeks 5. Documents required by the PD (aside from the standard application and the mental health release form). Only standard documents, 2 references contacted over the phone 6. Notes - anything pertaining to the application process (unforeseen difficulties, chief of police calling your home, you hiring an attorney, etc.). None
  9. Hello! I got a shotgun as a gift from my relative who visited me in NJ. I need to take this to an FFL to do the proper transfer (Firearms Transaction Record/ATF Form 4473), right? I do have the NJ Firearms Purchaser ID and I understand the handgun permit I was recently issued is only good for intra-state (NJ) transactions.. Thanks for any pointers in advance.
