Questions concerning legally transferring Father-in-laws firearms

We have to put my father-in-law into an assisted living facility. He owns assorted long guns and a few handguns, acquired multiple decades ago (long before the FID became law), some while living in NY State and some from Colorado, a few here in NJ. I trying to figure out how to legally find a home for them.

1) He doesn't have a FID card, but a few other family members do. I'm assuming he could sign a COE and transfer the long guns to anyone with a FID card, correct? Or, deos he also need a FID to do this transfer? The handguns would require a P2P permit from a FID holder.

2) I'm assuming the long guns can't be given to one of his kids if they don't have a FID card, right?

3) Would or can a FFL dealer purchase the whole lot of the long guns and handguns, even without definitive paperwork where they were purchase? This would be the easiest way to deal with them, in one complete package, but not sure if this is legal.

Any other legal ways to find homes for them, short of just dropping them off at a local LEO station.

No permits or paperwork needed as a seller. The acquiring party needs a permit for each handgun, and a FPID for the long guns. A dealer can buy everything with his license without needing a FPID or permits.

Your Father-in law needs nothing to sell, no FID or paperwork how he acquired the guns. The buyer will need an FID card and 2 COEs for long arms and a P2P for handguns.

If he wants to give long guns to his kids, they need to get their FID first. Put the ones he wants to sell on MeWe or Gunbroker. You will not get top dollar selling to an FFL. Don't even THINK about handing them over to your PD!

Thank for all the feedback. His oldest son is the Power of Attorney, so I'll share will him all this info and see how he wants to proceed.

Of course, being the helpful son-in-law that I am, a few of those long guns should come my way, right? :)

kinda surprised the OP doesn't want them for himself.

Well, maybe two of them, for the novelty value... I'm not into older, traditional wood stocks.... I like my firearms "black and evil looking"....

      The Tax Man Commeth

      We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in

      I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html

      The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam

      Softer Holster

      By maintenanceguy · Posted

      I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.

      Light primer strikes

      By Mr.Stu · Posted

      Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
