Any AR lower that is made from anything without going through an FFL with a known manufacturer's serial number is considered a ghost gun in the PRNJ.  Illegal to make, Illegal to possess!

Especially when Federal law says it is legal to make your own firearm as long as you dont sell it...

So the State can violate Federal law by making sanctuary cities for illegal aliens but we cant violate state law that says we cant own them.   Got it.:pirate:

isn't there some clause somewhere that states that a state cannot pre-empt a federal law with something more strict?

Yes, its called supremacy clause in Article VI in the Constitution.  My guess is that you would have to take it up to a federal court, not a local or state court.  That's going to be a lot of time and money.

Also 14th Ammendment says: 

Section 1.

All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

Marbury v Madison (1803) landmark case,   Judge Marshall concluded, “the Constitution of the United States confirms and strengthens the principle, supposed to be essential to all written constitutions, that a law repugnant to the constitution is void, and that courts, as well as other departments, are bound by that instrument.”

Seems this has been ignored in New Jersey for more than half a century now.

You aren't winning jack using privileges and immunities. 

SCOTUS basically said it means nothing as implying it means anything would mean relitigating ~50 years of case law.
