Being a resident of the Peoples Republic of New jersey am I permitted to drive to another state (PA, DE) and buy a gun. I have a valid FID and P2P. I think I can buy a rifle or shotgun out of state but Im not sure about pistols?

You can do long guns out of state, handguns have to be shipped to an ffl in jersey for transfer.

This is federal law not state law.  Long guns yes, handguns no

the long guns must be NJ compliant versions

No private sales unless thru ffl
