My ex's father (we're on good terms) wants to give my son a 410 pump that's been in the family for about 60 years. He wants to keep it in the family for another generation. here's thr trick. He lives in FL. What's the rule for interstate gifts of firearms?? __________________ Support the N.J.O.A. and the "Littel Amendment" An amendment to the New Jersey State Constitution that Guarantees the right to hunt, trap, and fish in New JerseyNew Jersey Outdoor Alliance

MTH,
Are you talking about your wife's gun that your father-in law gave her when she was 18? __________________ "To be unarmed and therefore helpless in the face of evil is irresponsible and in fact complicit to said evil.

I know what I would do in this situation but I would probably be criticized for it so I wont post it![]() __________________ "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for dinner. Liberty is a well armed lamb contesting the vote" - Benjamin Franklin

I could be wrong but I would honestly think based on the age of the gun that there is no sales record there for it could have been bought here in New Jersey, and as long as it was never registered in any other state and you have your FID then I see no reason the gun can't be just transferred to you by hand in this state with a down loaded state trasfer form This is asumeing that the gun owner aka Great GrandPa was from New Jersey Originally ![]() __________________ Pete's Archery Service & NJH.com ProStaff ProFile

Ok, here's what I was getting at. In most states (not NJ) private sales of firearms are not regulated between citizens of that state. Meaning you can privately sell a firearm just like you sell any other object. No receipts are even needed.
If your wife lived in one of these other states (FL for example) and the same state as her father then who is to say the "gift" did not happen then? __________________ "To be unarmed and therefore helpless in the face of evil is irresponsible and in fact complicit to said evil.
