I believe in NJ there are two licences types (not including carry which is not the issue here). One to possess generically and one for the specific gun.
Your understanding is not correct. There is no such thing in NJ. Posession in the home is not even addressed. You need a Firearms ID card to purchase or transport a long gun, and to allow you to apply for a handgun purchase permit. The handgun purchase permit allows purchase of one handgun of your choice, and a permit can be issued every 30 days. Each is good for 90 days (check this, it's been a few years since I bought a handgun in NJ). Once you posess it, you can do as you please in your home, transport to a range, allow others to shoot, etc. Essentially once you have it, you have it. If you move in from another state there is no need to register it.
License to carry... completely different animal.
