Is there any reason that we can not orginize a counter to the buy backs like have happened at other states. While I am pretty sure a face to face transfer is illegal in NJ,I am sure we could find a couple of FFL dealers that would be willing to help out. You stake out the buy back looking for a some one with a firearm you would like and make an offer. If the person accepts you both go to the FFL dealer. You then give the FFL dealer the cash and he buys the firearm from the person who was going to turn it in. The FFL dealer than sells the firearm to you for like a $1

 

$1?? I would expect normal transfer fees. Which would be just fine.

What are the laws regarding FTF transfers here?

 

I know you have to have the PP for a handgun, but what about long guns?

1. Love the use wide lens to make the pile look bigger than it is.

 

2. That revolver has what looks like electrical tape on it. Wonder why that's on there - another murder case in a cold pile?

There has to be at least 2 dozen war trophies in that pile!

Why dont these retards check all the SN's take anything out that was used in a crime and then

auction off the rest to local dealers who will only sell to those that are legally allowed to own a firearm.

With the 1500 plus guns there I bet there are hundreds of war collectibles that you can't see, not to mention more modern collectibles like Colt revolvers. Very sad, very stupid, and I still contest... not legal.

The normal transfer fees would be a giving. I mentioned the $1 dollar thing because I am not really sure how the laws for FFL dealers work in NJ. I thought there might be some law that prevents a diect transfer through an FFL dealer and the FFL dealer had to buy the firearm and then sell the firearm.

 

Yea it's kind of sad that I don't really know NJ's firearm laws, but basicly being exempt from all that stupidity is awesome.

 

If Such thing could be done couldn't you technically buy the pistols without a PP, you just could not recieve them from the FFL. So as long as the FFL was fine with holding onto the pistols until you got your PP, you could buy as many those pistols as you could afford.

FTF is legal in NJ as long as the buyer has an FID for LG's or a PPP for HG's.

 

No dealer is going to waste their time going to a buy back to do transfers for $1, I doubt they would even bother for their normal transfer fees. They are in business to buy guns significantly cheaper than they are selling them for, anything else is a waste of their time.

I have never sold a firearm so I do not know what the process is, nor have I yet bought on in NJ yet. As long as the FFL dealer is getting his usual transfer fee why wouldn't an FFL dealer do the transfer. Sure he could probably get more money by buying the guns himself then selling them, but like in the case above unless they have a lot of spare money laying around I doubt that the could afford to buy all of them up. Even if the could who knows how long it would take to sell, and may take up valuable space for a long time. Besides I am sure there have to be plenty of FFL dealers that are very pro gun that would be willing to pass on making the maximum amount of money on some firearms to help other pro gun owners especially when doing so is not really costing them any thing.

I'm tempted to go to a gun buy back with the latest edition of a gun value guide. I could just stand outside and put up a sign that says "Want to know the actual value of the gun you're about to turn in?"

Correct me if I am wrong, but a criminal could have obtained a gun illegally, and used it in a crime, however he can turn it in here, get money, and not be asked any questions?

 

Gun laws at work guys, and they want to add more.

Precisely.

there is a browning 1922 in the front...

I like how they think that this accomplishes something. I'm betting 9/10 of those guns there were owned by people who inherited them and didn't want them, and the rest don't even constitute 0.1% of the firearms used in crimes.

 

I'm sure there are some crappy 50 dollar guns in there but I would bet there are some nice pieces as well. Wouldn't it make sense to scrap the junk guns and sell the ones that have value? Yeah, it would make sense which is why it would NEVER happen.

 

If I remember, you only get $250 if you turn in an illegal firearm. Is it illegal to advertise that one would gather the firearms that people want to get rid of at the buy-back for a modest fee? It saves them the inconvenience of having to travel and stand in line.
