STATEMENT

 

     This bill would further regulate the sale of ammunition.

     Under current law, the sale of handgun ammunition is regulated to the extent that a purchaser must establish his or her eligibility by exhibiting a firearms purchaser identification card, a permit to purchase a handgun, or a permit to carry a handgun and that he or she is 21 years of age or older.

     This bill would establish a similar regulatory program governing the sale of rifle and shotgun ammunition.  In addition to the documentation a purchaser may use to establish his or her eligibility to acquire handgun ammunition, this bill would permit prospective rifle and shotgun ammunition purchasers to exhibit a valid New Jersey hunting license to establish their eligibility.  Sales and transfers of rifle and shotgun ammunition may not be made to individuals under 18 years of age.

Wait so, I don't understand. Are they saying you'd need a hunting license to purchase shotgun and rifle ammo should this bill pass? I can't imagine that'd fly too well.
