If I am reading correctly. A non FID holder who is in possession of a firearm. Could in fact sell to a Licensed dealer or a person holding a valid NJ FID Card. Is this correct? Talking about Rifles and shotguns.

 

PURCHASE

Rifles and Shotguns It is unlawful to sell, give, transfer, assign, or otherwise dispose of or receive, purchase, or otherwise acquire a rifle or shotgun, other than an antique rifle or shotgun, unless the purchaser, assignee, donee, receiver, or holder is licensed as a dealer under New Jersey law or possesses a valid Firearms Purchasers Identification Card (FID), and first exhibits the FID to the seller, donor, transferrer, or assignor, and the purchaser, assignee, donee, receiver, or holder signs a written certification form that identifies the purchaser, his or her address and FID or dealer’s number, and states he or she presently is not disqualified from purchase.

A person is not restricted as to the number of rifles or shotguns they may purchase, provided they have a valid FID and the certification form requirements are met. The FID is required for private or dealer purchases.

Now I would assume you would still fill out a COE, but instead of FID number, maybe use a DL number instead???

Yes. As long as the buyer has a P2P you could also buy a pistol.

Yes. Fill out a COE, idk if DL # is the "rule" but not a bad idea either way.

I didn't know that. Very useful, as I assume it opens the door for buy back purchases

The only problem I'd have with buyback purchases is that the gun may have been used in a crime. I don't want that bad juju, not to mention if the serial number has been identified by the authorities I could end up with problems.

What does "holder" mean? Is that the person "holding it" before sale or after?
