Colt M4 legal in Jersey with pinned stock?

[lunker 274]

Below is the link for the Colt 6920. It has a Muzzle Compensator. It also says that it has a birdcage style flash hider.

If I pin the stock, is this gun legal in Jersey? I know that Compensators are OK but that Flash Suppressors are not. Is a birdcage-style flash hider considered a suppressor?

Yes, you wold have to have the stock pinned. The A2 mounted to the M4 would have to be removed as it is a flash hider and therefor illegal in NJ. Either a muzzle brake or compensator would need to mounted in it's place and pinned as well. Do you homework when purchasing the muzzle brake or compensator and make sure that it has been tested by the BATFE and accepted by them as NOT being a flash hider.

Thanks. I spoke with Paul from Arms-and-Ammo and am going with the Colt 6400C, which is legal in NJ.

Ok, cool. Paul is a great guy. Forgot to mention earlier and just for others that may be reading. The bayonet lug would also have to be removed.

The 6400C is prob a better choice for ban-states. The tricky thing with the 6920/21, even after you pull off the banned bits and pieces, are all the LE markings on the lowers. While I don't know if that necessarily makes them in illegal in NJ, I would hate to have to make that argument "yes, I know it says Law Enforcement only on it, but, no, I'm not in law enforcement" - thanks but no thanks I'm sure you'll be very happy with the 6400

Even more questions...

 

The 22LR Upper conversion kit from Spike Tactical comes with a threaded barrel. If they put on a a permanently attached cav comp break, does that circumvent the NJ threaded barrel rule? The rule is there to prevent a flash suppressor from being mounted. If a compensator is permanently mounted in place of the suppressor (which normally comes with the Spike unit), does that qualify?

Here it is. Fun to shoot. Low recoil but sounds like a mild 357 when you pull the trigger. I need a little training on zeroing the sights.

Man that Remington UMC ammo stinks like ammonia when you shoot it.

That's a real beauty you got there. Once you get use to the rifle, the bang will start sounding like a *pop*, I hardly notice it anymore. As for the smell, is there anything better?! Haha, I love it
