Is it legal to store long guns or hand guns at a storage facility in NJ?

is an internal safe needed?

 

if it is legal will all storage facilities allow it? and do you have any recommendations?

few I checked out in my area didn't allow it,

Yes it's legal, or we'd be reading in the funny papers about schmucks gettin' locked-up for doin' it..............

 

Firearms support and storage is in Whippany.  They make a living doing it, and yes, they're FFL's.  But you can store virtually anything you legally own in a commercial storage facility.  To learn more, I'd simply call the storage place nearest you with a burn-phone, OR do an on-line look-up of their contract....and you'll be able to find-out one way or the other.

You need to check in their contract with you. In extra space and uncle bobs, it said in prohibited items section firearms and Ammunition.

YEP!  One lil' peek-a-boo at their contract tells the story.........

just to clarify that unless the storage facility limits what can be stored, it is perfectly legal to store a handgun or a long gun at a storage unit, that I am renting?

Is that because once i rent the unit it is as if it my residence? I am just concerned about getting tripped up on this issue.

 

the fact that no one or not many are caught does not in itself make it legal.

NJSA 2C:36-6e. 

Nothing in subsections b., c. and d. of N.J.S.2C:39-5 shall be construed to prevent a person keeping or carrying about his place of business, residence, premises or other land owned or possessed by him, any firearm...

 

I guess the question is:  Does a storage locker count as "premises"?

few I checked out in my area didn't allow it,

Then you should stop asking. Whether or not they allow it has nothing to do with the law. Well, firearms law, at least.

^^^^THIS is the correct answer.  Instead of asking permission, I beg forgiveness...........

 Never did I say I asked, if you read my followup I said it's in their user agreement contract.

This is the real question, whether they allow it is the next thing you'd have to look at. I live in an apartment complex that has a storage facility on site, in the building next to me...if I rent one of those out can I store firearms there?

Whatever you do, don't tell anyone.

You mean I shouldn't tell anyone about my storage locker full of guns and mass amounts of ammo cans filled with ammo?

Which part of what I said didn't sound like a friendly suggestion? Heavy flow this month?

In a word, YES!

 

It's time for another reading lesson.........   "OR other land owned or POSSESSED by him"  means that I can pay to rent a storage locker & patrol inside of it (all 15' x 10' ) with a loaded hand gun.  So just for a minute, extrapolate how did the gun get there?  Of course I'm illustrating absurdity by being absurd.

 

This is like trying to find permission to breathe air in the firearms statutes............it doesn't specifically exist, but we'd all be DEAD if we didn't do it.  Basically your personal property can be stored (secured) wherever a place will accept it.  NJ is no different than PA in this regard.  I have friends that store their NJ-illegal play things in storage lockers in PA.  Because it doesn't violate any state OR federal laws to do so!

 

SEE THE WHOLE BOARD!
