Is 41 Swiss Rimfire commercially available, not 41 Remington? If not then 1878 Swiss Verterelli rifle would be antique in NJ and able to be shipped to house no? BB rifles can not because they don't meet antique rifle definition in NJ.  Can anyone site where they can not be shipped?

You may see old production, probably pre 1950's 41 Swiss Rimfire at a gun show here or there, it's not common or cheap. Some Swiss Vetterli Rifles have been modified to center fire, probably for that 41 Remington or another similar round. I personally wouldn't have any gun shipped directly to my house in NJ. See what others have to say.

The reason I asked about commerically available ammo is that is a requirement for a rifle to be an antique in NJ, that ammo is not commerically available and it is made prior to 1898.

From what I know, NJ doesn't recognize C&R.  A gun is a gun, a pistol is a pistol.  Black powder pistols require a permit in NJ.  

NJ does recognize FFL03 under new law but still can't have shipped to house.  However FFL03 to FFL03 transfers of C&R firearms does not require a FFL01.

Also there is no such thing as an antique handgun in NJ, so yes black powder pistols do require a permit.  Even matchlocks require a permit.
