As far as I know, you can only have one drivers license. (Please correct me if I am wrong). To get around this and have dual state residency. Have a state issued non drivers ID for one state. And a drivers license from another state. Utility bills, phone bills, water bill, waste garbage collection bill, birth certificate, ss # card (maybe) might be needed to get a State Issued non drivers ID in another state. (Like Arizona) Keep the NJ drivers license. They are both legal ID's

In 2002 a Yugo SKS was selling for $99 at Centerfire Systems, today they are selling for $250 + . That is a pretty good return... get the SKS, ...... in fact get two...one for shooting and another for storing for sale later. Gold, silver, firearms and ammo have done much better than the stock market or the housing market.

If you are selling it out of state, and it is not regulated by federal law regarding interstate commerce. It would appear to be OK. Just be careful selling to these areas http://en.wikipedia....s#United_States Sale or possession of air guns are usually unregulated in most U.S. States. A few States and municipalities restrict or prohibit air gun sales or possession in some manner, including: San Francisco, New York, New York; Camden, New Jersey and Newark, New Jersey. Johnson City, Tennessee; Massachussets, Chicago, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and the States of Illinois, and Michigan.[22] Additionally, ordinances in many cities prohibit the discharge of air guns outdoors outside of an approved range. These guns are collector items and can sell $250 to $275. http://www.pyramydai...uto-pistol.html .

Some politician is probably working on it right now. They will call it the wildlife protection act.

I'm pissed that my history classes didn't teach that the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor and I had to learn it from a movie!

You can buy 80 acres in Wyoming for under $30,000 that is not a misprint http://www.acreage4less.com/listing.htm#_1_1a 80 acres in Kentucky way out in the country costs $108,000 http://www.landandfarm.com/property/80_acres_in_Grayson_County_Kentucky-370758/

I think it is a permit to work in a gun store in NJ.

NY State you should not have a problem. NYC is a different matter, you might be able to use the FOPA if passing through the city. Driving around Gotham City with a unloaded rifle in the trunk is not a good idea. http://www.nyfirearms.com/forums/laws-politics/25881-carrying-long-guns-passing-through-nyc.html

That is even cheaper than here! Way out in the country here in Kentucky going price is $1500 to $2000 per acre...Unless one buys like 100 acres or more...

I need to look into how Midway handles Illinois, as I understand it ... a Illinois FOID card has to be on file in order for them to ship. Midway or any other company should NOT single out New Jersey and yet allow other states that require ID cards like Illinois. I looked at J&G sales and they require a FOID on file to ship ammo to IL. Another company (Elite Ammunition) requires a FOID. I looked at Midway, I didn't see restriction although I understand it is when you enter the address and zip is when it all comes into play. I'll look into this further. I wonder what they require from Massachusetts.

I guess the next thing he will start is making people get 'food' permits in New York City in order to buy food and drinks. And after that? He'll put a concrete wall and barbed wire around the city with guard towers and make himself mayor for life.

Coercing a company by threatening to fine them in order to force the company not to do business, doesn't seem appear to seem right especially when there is a federal law protecting the transactions. NJ appears to be trying to prohibit interstate commerce of a product that is federally protected and specifically spelled out in law.

On the surface, It would seem to appear that NJ cannot prohibit mail order sales based on the FOPA law in 1986. I don't see any provision in this law where individual states can nullify a federal law that protects gun owners and permits interstate mail orders of ammunition. (While I have to assume restrictions such as ID and Firearm ID Cards can be required, a outright prohibition is contrary to the law). http://www.libraryindex.com/pages/1735/Firearm-Laws-Regulations-Ordinances-FIREARMS-OWNERS-PROTECTION-ACT-1986.html Nearly twenty years after the passage of the Gun Control Act of 1968, Congress in 1986 passed major legislation amending the 1968 act. The Firearms Owners' Protection Act of 1986 (PL 99-308, revised in PL 99-360), commonly referred to as the Gun Control Act of 1986, is still in effect today. The battle over this piece of legislation was fierce. David T. Hardy described the reactions of those in favor and those opposed to its passage in "The Firearm Owners' Protection Act of 1986: A Historical and Legal Perspective" (Cumberland Law Review, vol. 17, no. 585, 1986). Those in favor, Hardy wrote, called its passage "necessary to restore fundamental fairness and clarity to our Nation's firearms laws." PURCHASING FIREARMS AND AMMUNITION. The Gun Control Act of 1968 stated that firearms and ammunition could be purchased only on the premises of an FFL, and FFLs were required to record all firearms and ammunition transactions. The 1986 law made the purchase of ammunition and gun components by mail legal, as it had been prior to the Gun Control Act of 1968. Firearms dealers must keep records only of "armor-piercing" ammunition sales. Establishments that sell only ammunition (no firearms) do not have to be licensed, so stores that previously may not have carried ammunition because of licensing requirements can now do so.

If I had to pick a state in the Northeast, it would be New Hampshire. Not only are their gun laws are among the best in the country, their conceal carry permit is easier to get then here in Kentucky. Also New Hampshire fireworks laws are very good unlike nearby Vermont. There seems to be a great freedom loving and independent spirit that runs throughout the state. I wouldn't mind the cold and snow and would prefer it to nonstop humid 95 degree temperatures of the deep South in the summer.

At one time the USAS-12, Striker 12, and Streetsweeper was considered just regular shotguns. Then the BATF changed their minds...Here is the ruling...And the owners were contacted by the ATF, and I would assume from the 4473 paperwork. They probably contacted manufacturer and found out which wholesalers bought them...and did a trace down the line from the wholesaler to the retailer to the buyer. http://www.atf.gov/regulations-rulings/rulings/atf-rulings/atf-ruling-2001-1.html ATF Ruling 2001-1 Pursuant to ATF Rulings 94-1 (ATF Q.B. 1994-1, 22) and 94-2 (ATF Q.B. 1994-1, 24), the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) classified the USAS-12, Striker 12, and Streetsweeper shotguns as destructive devices under the National Firearms Act (NFA), 26 U.S.C. Chapter 53. The NFA requires that certain "firearms" be registered and imposes taxes on their making and transfer. The term "firearm" is defined in section 5845 to include "destructive devices." The term "destructive device" is defined in section 5845(f)(2) as follows: [T]he term 'destructive device' means . . . (2) any type of weapon by whatever name known which will, or which may be readily converted to, expel a projectile by the action of an explosive or other propellant, the barrel or barrels of which have a bore of more than one-half inch in diameter, except a shotgun or shotgun shell which the Secretary finds is generally recognized as particularly suitable for sporting purposes; . . . The USAS-12, Striker 12, and Streetsweeper shotguns were classified as destructive devices pursuant to section 5845(f) because they are shotguns with a bore of more than one-half inch in diameter which are not generally recognized as particularly suitable for sporting purposes. Pursuant to 26 U.S.C. 7805(b), ATF. Ruls. 94-1 and 94-2 were issued prospectively with respect to the making, transfer, and special (occupational) taxes imposed by the NFA. Thus, although the classification of the three shotguns as NFA weapons was retroactive, the prospective application of the tax provisions allowed registration without payment of tax. ATF has contacted all purchasers of record of the shotguns to advise them of the classification of the weapons as destructive devices and that the weapons must be registered. ATF has registered approximately 8,200 of these weapons to date. Held, the registration period for the USAS-12, Striker-12, and Streetsweeper shotguns will close on May 1, 2001. No further registrations will be accepted after that date. Persons in possession of unregistered NFA firearms are subject to all applicable penalties under 26 U.S.C. Chapter 53.

I checked 5 states including mine and those that surround it and could not find any requirements that they needed a reason to issue a concealed carry permit. http://www.aries.in.gov/Firearms/Permit.aspx http://www.ohioattorneygeneral.gov/ConcealedCarryApplicationPDF http://www.kentuckystatepolice.org/conceal.htm http://www.tn.gov/safety/handgun/qualifications.shtml http://www.wvago.gov/pdf/gunrec/ApplicationforConcealedPistolLicense.pdf

I beg to differ, in most states that are shall issue...a 'reason' is not needed. That is what they mean by shall issue, by law they shall issue it if one has a clean record and meets the requirements. Why would someone have to put a reason down for a permit in a shall issue state? I have not heard of anyone who met the requirements and had a clean record getting denied in shall issue states. I don't understand how self defense is not a recognized legal purpose with a concealed carry permit in shall issue states. A lot of states have Castle and Stand Your Ground Laws as well. It is a different story in those states that are may issue. Some prefer the term "may not issue". For instance in New York State it is a may issue state. In certain counties in upstate NY it is possible to get a carry permit, and a reason is needed and some have suggested a valid 'reason' as "For All Lawful Purposes".

This might help....Illinois takes the top prize as the most confusing, IL State law must be different than what Chicago, Aurora and Oak Park are since these are spelled out specifically. One can in theory go through four different cities and be legal in only one! http://www.topgunsup...ctions-p-9.html * Hawaii: No handgun magazine above 10 rounds. * Maryland: No magazine above 20 rounds. * Massachusetts: No magazine above 10 rounds. * New Jersey: No magazine above 15 rounds. * New York: No magazine above 10 rounds. * Washington DC: No magazine above 10 rounds. * Chicago, IL: No magazine above 12 rounds. * Aurora, IL: No magazine above 15 rounds. * Oak Park, IL: No magazine above 10 rounds. * South Bend, IN: No magazine above 15 rounds. * California: No magazine above 10 rounds.

Maybe he has a FID ?

I guess the only question to ask is, is it possible to go travel out of state and buy a C&R rifle with the C&R license? (What about a C&R pistol since the transaction won't be taking place in NJ?). In NY State, the C&R license holders can only receive C&R rifles but not pistols. And since NY State has hand gun registration and requires a FFL for all handguns, I am assuming NY C&R licensees cannot travel out of state to acquire C&R pistols. But since there is no registration (of handguns acquired lawfully out of state in NJ) would a C&R restriction on pistols bought with a C&R out of state apply? In other words what happens with transactions lawfully done out of state and received out of state with the C&R license by a NJ based C&R license holder ?

If the OP was flying into NJ I would agree, but I believe he is driving from Texas to NJ. There is no reason why he cannot carry from Texas to PA (get a bank box in PA) and back from PA to TX. NJ laws aside, he has a right to legally protect himself and his family along the way from Texas till before he gets to NJ.

(I looked into this further and found a thread here on NJgunforums from Dec 2010. Here is the original page link to the thread http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/topic/20891-cr-liscense-and-nj-specifically-m1-carbine/page__st__20 ) Letter from NJ State Police Special Investigations regarding one gun a month and a C&R license. http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?app=core&module=attach&section=attach&attach_id=2422 March 30, 2010 Dear Chief: This letter is intended to provide your department with guidance and direction as to the proper administration of, and procedures to follow regarding the recently enacted legislation concerning the purchase of one handgun every thirty days, and the proper submission of applications for those seeking exemption to the law. Be advised the following handgun transfers are not subject to the purchase of one handgun every thirty days law and thus the transactions DO NOT require the completion of the new “Application for Multiple Handgun Purchase Exemption” form (S.P. 015) and the new “Seller/Transferor Certification” form (S.P. 016): Handguns passing to heirs or legatees (N.J.S. 2C:58-3j). A federal, state, or local law enforcement officer or agency purchasing handguns for use by officers in the actual performance of their law enforcement duties. A collector of handguns as curios or relics as defined in Title 18, United States Code, section 921(a)(13) who has in his possession a valid Collector of Curios and Relics License issued by the Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Transfers of handguns between licensed retail dealers. Any transaction where the person has purchased a handgun from a licensed retail dealer and has returned that handgun to the dealer in exchange for another handgun within 30 days of the original transaction, provided the retail dealer reports the exchange transaction to the superintendent. Thank you in advance for your cooperation regarding this matter. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact Lieutenant David B. Schlueter, Firearms Investigation Unit Supervisor, at (609) 882-2000, extension 2555. Sincerely, FOR COLONEL JOSEPH R. FUENTES SUPERINTENDENT Major Marshall Cradock Commanding Officer Special Investigations Section

Because the hotel room is being rented out , same like if one has an apartment and pays rent. Staying at a friend's house for free would not past the legalities, unless they are renting a room out for their stay. When one pays for a room or an apartment, it is considered a legal residence.

Also your father in law will have to contact his county/licensing authority and remove those pistols from his NY state permit after the transaction is done. I believe the NY State county/licensing authority needs to know where the pistols went to. Getting paperwork from the NJ FFL to show that the pistols have been transferred lawfully out of state should satisfy legal requirements on his part.

Renting a bank lock box (safety deposit box) in PA might be your best bet. The only question that needs to be answered. Is it OK to bring a unloaded gun into a bank into PA? And what is the proper way to carry a gun into a bank, in a locked box or concealed in PA? Check the laws and bank policies ahead of time. This method will give you piece of mind and could save you thousands in legal costs. Whatever it costs for the box, it will be worth it. Good Luck and enjoy your trip.
