Wasn't there someone here trying to do that? I remember telling him to just go to PA and ship it from a PA FFL to a NY FFL to avoid shit like this but he wouldn't listen. Wanted instead to ask the State Police or something.

Luckily its a Iver-Johnson and not likely something actually with historical or monetary significance lol
This is all county based. I have brought numerous pistols back on to the books by claiming amnesty. No FFL needed in my county, you turn it in to the county, wait for them to make sure it has a clean title, then in a couple weeks its returned to you and on your permit.

I heard the reason they are not willing to register this particular gun is because it was registered to someone else years ago and there is no paperwork backing up the claim that this gun is "legally" owned. The original owner is dead, they cannot confirm real ownership.

Seems odd and something doesn't add up.
They should be able to determine that it was permitted to the previous 2 family members even though they have passed away, no?
Just because the county lost track of it doesn't mean the proper paper trail doesn't exist.
From the original story a few weeks ago, I remember reading that neither the Grandfather nor the father ever had the gun on their permits.

Ahh, I see. If true that changes the tune a bit.
No FFL in PA is going to touch that.
I have done this procedure with WWII bring backs from my grandfather. I turned them into the Rochester Police. I had to call 911 and they sent a car to pick them up. I was given a receipt and told to call the property room in 2 days. I then took the receipt and had them added to my permit. I was given a green card to pick them up by the clerk and headed over to the police property room. I handed them an ID and they gave me my two pistols in a paper bag. I asked them if the wanted the green card and they said NO. Couldn't have been easier

Why would no FFL in PA touch that?

Its still horseshit from the county, they can but just don't want to. I claimed amnesty on pistol illegally brought to NY from another state and another from a long deceased permit holder than was no relation to me.
I never said I agree to their thinking or their actions. Just trying to explain it a bit. They are having a difficult time tracing the gun. It really is that simple.

When I have done it, the pistol got shipped off to the SP to check it with a real basic state form to accompany. I'd assume they verify its not stolen, lost etc. I remember it taking about a week to get back.

Every county and police district is different. You never know what you'll run into. Going out of state and shipping it to a NY FFL works.
I've done it.
