I was told by the one of the range officers at my local range that I would be abe to buy a used handgun from a person, but not a store. Is this true in the state of New Jersey?

If you are over 18 and under 21 that is probably correct.

[Ohio Rifleman]

In Ohio, if you're between 18 and 21, you can buy a handgun from a private individual without a FFL, but you have to be 21+ to buy a handgun from a FFL. But you can't buy handgun ammunition until you're 21. God, I hate gun laws. :banghead:

No Permit to Purchase or FID will be issued to any:
...
Person under 18.
...
Person under the age of 21, in the case of a handgun or pistol.

Hogwash.

FFLs sell used handguns in NJ.

Private handgun sales are also OK in NJ, but all the laws regarding handgun purchase permits still apply, which includes the 21+ bit.

How much longer before you turn 21, Gunblade?
