RE: Out of state=no gun?
Knightia,
I live in NJ and have no problems whatsoever. The only real hassle is getting a Firearms ID card. That takes about a month and a half. After that, all the laws are for the most part the same as in other states with the exception of the muzzleloader being treated as a firearm. However the upside of having the FID permit is that buying a handgun is now a snap. BTW....here is a great page on gun laws. It showsall the relevant stats for each state on one page..... http://www.nraila.org/media/misc/compendium.htm |

RE: Out of state=no gun?
New Jersey law restricts the ownership of certain semi-automatic and other firearms based upon their military appearance. The list includes:
Algimec AGM1 type Any shotgun with a revolving cylinder such as the "Street Sweeper" or "Striker 12" Armalite AR-180 type Australian Automatic Arms SAR Avtomat Kalashnikov type semi-automatic firearms Beretta AR-70 and BM59 semi-automatic firearms Bushmaster Assault rifle Calico M-900 Assault carbine and M-900 CETME G3 Chartered Industries of Singapore SR-88 type Colt AR-15 and CAR-15 seriesDaewoo K-1, K-2, Max 1 and Max 2, AR 100 types Demro TAC-1 carbine type Encom MP-9 and MP-45 carbine types FAMAS MAS223 types FN-FAL, FN-LAR, or FN-FNC type semi-automatic firearms Franchi SPAS 12 and LAW 12 Shotguns G3SA type Galil type Heckler and Koch HK91, HK93, HK94, MP5, PSG-1 Intratec TEC-9 and 22 semi-automatic firearms M1 carbine type M14S type MAC10, MAC11, MAC11-9mm carbine type firearms PJK M-68 carbine type Plainfield Machine Co.

Any magazine with a capacity greater than fifteen rounds is prohibited, even if there is no semi-automatic firearm to accompany the magazine unless the person has a registered "assault firearm" and the magazine is used for DCM sanctioned shooting matches. A part or combination of parts to convert or assemble a firearm into an "assault firearm" is also forbidden. Any "assault firearm" not registered, licensed, or rendered inoperable pursuant to a state police certificate by May 1, 1991, is considered contraband. Any "assault firearm" which was not owned prior to May 1, 1990, must be licensed. Application is made to the Superior Court for the county in which the person lives or conducts business. The fee is $75. The court must find that the public safety and welfare require the issuance of the license and the person must be qualified to obtain a handgun carrying license. For practical purposes, no one will be issued such a license. If the owner of an assault firearm which has been registered dies, the owner`s heirs or estate shall have 90 days if unable to get a license to either transfer the assault firearm to any person or firm lawfully entitled to own or possess such firearm; render the assault firearm inoperable; or voluntarily surrender the assault firearm. According to the state police, removal of the firearm from New Jersey to a state where the gun would be legal is also allowed. |

RE: Out of state=no gun?
Well they are certainly different than this.....
Wyoming law does not prohibit the lawful possession of machine guns. Thus, it is lawful to possess, purchase, or sell a machine gun that is legally registered and possessed in compliance with all federal laws and regulations. No person shall take into or possess in the game fields or forests of Wyoming any fully automatic weapon or device designed to silence or muffle the report of any firearm. |
RE: Out of state=no gun?
Then you would run into the problem,when you came back to callif,if you changed over your license to a utah lic. and bought the gun.Under calif.law you would have one week to take your guns to the local sheriff,or chief of police if you come from out of state and register your gun.Or they would take it away from you,if for some reason it was checked by a warden out hunting or something. Plus you would have to pay to register it.They got you coming and going. vangunsmith
