OK, Let me correct this based on the scenario. Your in NJ. Your sent a weapon OUT OF STATE for repair. As far as your FFL dealer (not going into shipping your gun to S&W for engraving or for a gunsmith, etc). You send a weapon out to or for a modification. As a FFL license holder in NJ, following FFL law and NJ law (as you need a NJ dealers license as well to hold a FFL in NJ). 1. He takes your gun, logs it into his FFL binder as a acquisition. 2. He logs it out with the disposition out for repair/m, modification. He is now done. The place sends it back to him. He logs it into his binder. and then when you pick it up out to you. There is no 4473 form done, per FFL rules or NJ rules.(per the FFL handbook) There is NO NIC check done per FFL rules or NJ rules. (per the FFL handbook)

True Fact: I moved into Belleville NJ. I did not get a permit back within 30 days. I sent a letter, notarized which stated the following. 1. I was a police officer and not a felon. 2. state laws requires that i should have it within 30 days. that I intended to file a lawsuit if i did not received my permit or denial of permit letter within 7 days. I had my permit within 3 days of delivering the letter. Now, I understand that probably one poor sole gets stuck with this job, I know, I do it. But if its not getting done, I have no problem suing for a violation of my rights per the state law being violated by the municipality. Montvalle. I would sue. I need not sign your waiver, which you cannot add to a form controlled by the state. and in 30 days i would send a nasty gram of a pending lawsuit.

Oh, PS for those interested the handbook can be downloaded My link I would have entered your weapon as an acquisition and disposition to the shop when sent out. He can also enter the return of the weapon and return to you an an acquisition and disposition on its return. If it was a one day gunsmith repair no need for it, but since it was shipped out and returned that is the best and proper way per the federal Guide, and thats who gave him his FFL license.

Interestingly, your FFL should know the foll0owing rule: Exceptions to the ATF Form 4473 Requirement: You are not required to obtain a Form 4473 for the following sales and other transfers: Transfer of a firearm to another FFL (including 1. collectors when transferring a Curio & Relic firearm); The return of a repaired firearm to the person from 2. whom it was received; So No, your FFL can give you back the weapon your gave him upon return of it. Without entering it into the register. This is under his FFL license, not under the NJ State Police requirments. So please Forgive the NJSP, they are not supposed to know the Federal Requirements that your dealer should.
