BossyMossy 0 Posted January 7, 2013 HI Everybody, I work in Hoboken, NJ just across the Hudson River from NYC. Due to this fact, many of my coworkers at the company that i work for, happen to be from New York/Long Island. One of my coworkers and I have become quite tight and i've spent a few nights out in Long Island with my Girlfriend at his place. We've done some trapshooting, and he has a nice collection of firearms. In any event, he has a nice 12 gauge 870 that he wouldnt mind getting rid of. He said he'd be willing to sell it for dirt cheap (like 60 bucks) if there was a way for me to buy it. How could i go about buying this thing? Can he ship it to an FFL here? Does he have to actually COME to NJ or is there a way to do it without him ever leaving his home. Please advise. All help is greatly appreciated. Thanks. -Bossy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hd2000fxdl 422 Posted January 7, 2013 Through a NJ FFL to you is good, he can bring it to the NJ FFL or ship it via FedEx UPS or through a NY FFL to your FFL. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scratching my head, but folks can he have it transfered to him via a NY FFL also being it's a long gun, I want to say yes, but need another cup of coffee..

hd2000fxdl 422 Posted January 7, 2013 Ok, I though so, just wanted to double check and not pass along incorrect info. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris327 30 Posted January 7, 2013 Harry, could they even bring it to an nj ffl to do the transfer? or would it have to be shipped through ffls. I dont think they can bring it here to transfer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BossyMossy 0 Posted January 7, 2013 OKay.. So if i spend the weekend in NY (Long ISland), we can go to a Store and do the transfer there? Then, i put the firearm in my trunk and drive home? Which paperwork am i using? New Jersey COE? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
302w 83 Posted January 7, 2013 Yes, yes, and yes. Go through a NY FFL and they should do all of the work there. Good price too... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kman 56 Posted January 7, 2013 Make sure to have it in a locked case for your return trip through New York City. Sent from my DROID2 GLOBAL using Tapatalk 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
halbautomatisch 60 Posted January 8, 2013 As long as the transfer cost is reasonable, do the transfer in NY, they don't charge for NICS over there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
