I was thinking about this last night, but couldn't find anything specific as an answer. Since in NJ you're not technically authorized to have pistol, outside of the exception areas, how would one handle a face-to-face purchase? If the seller and buyer agreed to meet and do the sale in a public parking lot, that's not considered an exception area, is it? If they decided to do the deal at the seller's home, the then buyer leaving the home, would not be leaving an exception area, would he? If they decided to meet at the buyer's home, the seller traveling to the buyer's home would not be going to an exception area, would he?

If you want to remain 100% within the law, do the transfer at a range.

Very true, but if a buyer went to the sellers house that should also me legal since I believe the law allows you to transport from a place of purchase to your home.

I'd say this is the best way.

Unless you know the person you are selling to, very well, I would not invite them into my house for the transaction.

At a range, it's generally a public place where the possession of a firearm is usually not questioned.

I believe the the law protects the buyer "from any place of purchase" and back to his residence but with a "stranger" use discretion IMO. I do however think the range is the perfect place.
