I have a family friend and her husband just passed. She wants to give me his handguns which include a beretta 9mm and 2 antique police guns. A Colt Police Positive .32 and an S&W .32 CTG.

 

I know I need a permit for the beretta, but what about the antique ones?

 

I tried to find a forum on here but couldn't. Anyone have experience with this?

 

Thanks

Unfortunately, NJ does not distinguish the fact that they are antiques. You need permits for them all.

Thanks Lunker.. That was my initial guess. Looks like I will be going in for new permits.

 

I assume the OGAM rule still applies? And are you aware of any exemption to circumvent this because they are antiques?

 

I appreciate it

 

Not specifically because they are antiques, but here is the first exemption listed on the SP-015 form...

 

Purchase of multiple handguns from a person who obtained the handguns through inheritance or intestacy.

 

Which would seem to apply.

 

Adios,

I've used that reason on an exemption and it was approved without issue.

 

Those guns would have had to be made before 1898 to qualify as antiques anyway, I know Colt made the police positive after 1898 (at least some), so it can be hard to tell if it qualifies (for selling paperless out of state).
