My dad gave me several guns for my birthday. Aside from making them NJ compliant, how do I go about making a legal transfer of ownership and take possesion? He and the guns are in PA where the guns were purchased.

Depending where you live contact one of our FFL's on the board. they can help you.

Out of state private transfers have to go through an FFL.

The only way to avoid that were if they were left to you in a will.

Thanks. Is there a list of FFL's handy posted somewhere?

Rifles and shotguns must be NJ compliant. If they're not, leave them in PA. Any handguns must be transferred through a FFL, and you will need a purchase permit for each one (even though you are not buying them).

Any handguns must be transferred through a FFL

 

Being his dad is in PA all guns must be transferred through a FFL.

 

Long guns must be NJ compliant and can be shipped to a NJ FFL or the transfer can take place at a PA FFL. If you're going to PA anyway to see your Dad this would be the easiest way. You need your NJFID card in any case.

 

Handguns (also must be Nj compliant) have to be shipped to a NJ FFL and you need a pistol permit for each. If there is more than one you're most likely hard pressed to get this done before one handgun a month goes into effect.
