Hey all..

Quick question.. This may sound silly but is this firearm sold as a rifle? Will I only need my FID, and not a permit to purchase here in Jersey?

Thanks!!

    The firearm you have named is a .22caliber rifle. You won’t need a p2p(permit to purchase). They are only used when buying handguns. Yes will only need FID. No matter how you’re obtaining the rifle. You’ll need to go through a FFL(federal firearms dealer), and pay a transfer fee. The FFL will conduct the mandatory background check through NICS (National Instant Criminal Background Check System ). 

Side note:

That rifle in normal configuration isn’t NJ Legal. It has an adjustable stock and threaded barrel, “Two evil” features not allowed on a pistol gripped rifle. It would best for you to reach out to an NJ FFL to see if it can be modified to be legal here.
