Dear All,

 

 I am afraid of what the answer is going to be, but if I want to evenly trade pistols with another gun owner, do I need to file for a new pistol permit in NJ?  What if the other person is from out of state, for example PA.. Does he need to take the pistol to a NJ FFL?

 

Thanks for your time,

Mo

Yes to both.

Transfer through an NJ FFL if your trader/selle is from out of state.

Yes, you ll need a pistol permit.

Procedure is the same as a sale...even trade just makes it a sale for $0. Same P2P and out of state through NJ FFL requirements apply.

Even for in state sales in PA, all handgun sales must go through a FFL.
