Buying without a FID

Featured Replies

I'm still waiting for my FID, it hasn't been 30 days yet but what I'm wondering is if I were to cross the state line into PA and show my license and do the NICS check could I buy a long gun and bring it back to NJ?

Not legally. Without the FID card you are not legal back in NJ making the purchase in PA invalid.

You need a valid PA drivers license or a NJ FID to buy firearms in PA. If you show them only a NJ Drivers license they will ask for your NJ FID.

 

Also, It's illegal to have a drivers license in two seperate states.

If I ever hit the Mega Millions I'm leaving NJ and whoever wants to come with me is welcome...

You don't need to hit the mega millions, you'll probably save mega millions by moving! NJ is VERY expensive compared to PA and a few other gun friendly states from what I understand. :roll:

You dont NEED to hit the mega. There's a reason im moving to Tn once I'm Retired...my oension will go about 2 1/2 times farther there than it doed here...PLUS they're an NFA-friendly state

legally, you do not need a FID to buy a handgun in NJ, but many FFLs will still ask for one. You do however need a purchase permit.

If you don't tick the box on the form for purchaser ID, you'll just get a pistol permit even if you don't have an FPID.

No you dont...They will ask, and perhaps they do not know the law, but a FID is not required to get the permit or to purchase a handgun. Its a good idea to have a FID, but it is not a requirement.

So you are telling me PA dealers will sell a handgun to an out of state resident in violation of the Federal laws of interstate handgun transfer? If so those dealers sound like they souldn't be in business.

To whom were you addressing this? BadBul was asking about a long gun purchase.

 

 

No FPID is needed to buy a handgun!!!!! The out of state seller can sell a NJ resident a handgun, but it must ship to a NJ dealer.
