Sadly, you are probably better off finding one online and having an FFL do the transfer for you. You can save some decent money that way, enough for more ammo |

Thank You for the quick response. I have been seriously considering that with the way some of the prices are online. I can get a new H&K Tactical for the price of a new 45 here h) Thanks |
I agree 100% NJ gun shop dealers are a total RIPOFF!!! |
First, find a dealer that is willing to do the transfer for you. I've seen them charge anywhere from $25-40 to do the transfer, plus another $15 for the NICS check. Consider that when looking at the price of your handgun online. Either way you have to pay for NICS whether it's a transfer or you buy it at a shop in state. After you have found a dealer, contact whoever you need to to purchase the gun. You will be buying the gun from the seller not your dealer. The seller will require a copy of your FFL's license, which he or she will take care of once you tell them who you are buying it from. Most online sellers will allow for a 3 day inspection period from the time that it is delivered to your dealer. IF THE SELLER DOES NOT ALLOW AT LEAST A 3 DAY INSPECTION PERIOD, I SUGGEST THAT YOU DO NOT PURCHASE FROM THEM. It is a common courtesy in the business.Make sure that your dealer will be available within that time frame to allow you to look over the gun. That is your chance to make sure that the condition matches what you purchased and that you are satisfied with the product. The seller will ship the gun to your dealer. Your dealer will call you when it arrives. Just bring your Permit to Purchase a Handgun with you. Your dealer will call NICS, do the paperwork and you'll be on your way. If you use Gunbroker or Guns America, read the sellers feedback. I've had a good experience online. Good Luck. And post pics when you get her before you lose it in a tragic boating accident

I was born & raised in Middlesex....spent a good long time there! For local shops, about the best you will find is Ray's sport shop on Rt22 in North Plainfield Efingers in BoundBrook is ok for some stuff. Harry army / navy on Rt 130 in Robinsville is a cool place as well. Personally, after living in PA for a while now, I have to say that I like the attitude of the shop keepers around here a lot more than any place in NJ....but the few places I mentioned are the places I did most of my business with when I lived there. Also, sportsmans center on Rt130 (near harrys) and I forget the name, but there is a place in Rahway that has a lot of old surplus stuff.... Good luck. |
If you ever want to make your way over the river and through the woods, we have some good places to shoot over here in Bucks county. Unlike Rays, places around here actually rent cool stuff at the range....like full auto M16's and MP5's Also have a fun outdoor range at a nearby farm. Guy who owns the farm lets people shoot in the back field all day long for $10 |
NJ Firearms Guild on Rt 27, some nice stuff, not cheap don't forget woodbridge auto and guns (I can never remember thier name), also Sarco in Stirling, There's a couple in Milltown area, but I think only hunting type weapons. Brick Armory is another. Really miss Navy Arms, but they're gone. What about South Jersey? anything milsurpish around here? |
Two of the guys that used to work at Navy Arms opened up their own stores but both of them are rip-offs. Stay Far Far Away from BERGEN SPORTING GOODS (in Ridgefield) and The GUN EXCHANGE (in Butler) Bergen sporting goods charge at least $100 more then a gun is worth, 50 for transfers (not including Nix) and charge a weekly fee for holding a gun while in transfer. The owner of the Gun Exchange is a total BS/conartist. Not only are his gun prices and transfer prices high but he wont back his products. Total scum. Just my experience with them |
Yes, International Police Supplies (OPEN TO ALL), 3 blocks form Rte 17 - Vito and Carl proprietors, they were running a killer sale on NEW Glocks. 201-556-1948. Lotsa pistols, rifles Black and Tactical... |
. I did a search and could not find a local shop thread. What are your favorite shops in NJ. I am looking to purchase a H&K USP 45 and would like to get the best deal.
