If they are rifles, they will have a stock already and a 16" or longer barrel. SBRs are verboten in NJ You probably mean the non-NFA Other Firearms.

dino71 7 Posted January 18, 2023 This is so confusing. So lets say you have one of the AR's with the "OTHER" stamped on it. Is this one exempt for these new rules? I think mine has a 16" barrel but it does have an adjustable brace/screw on flash suppressor and forward grip . Will we need to install a real stock now like an old school 70's AR?

1LtCAP 4,259 Posted January 18, 2023 you're right. it won't gain any traction. would be fantastic if it did. i'm waiting to hear about the lawsuits to stop the brace ban, as it goes against bruen at the least, the 2a at the worst..... 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Golf battery 1,223 Posted January 19, 2023 I agree. I said its an other firearm. Tried to explain the difference. All he kept saying is if the barrel is less than 16”. Its a sbr. I told him. You guys gave out a letter to troy okaying it as an other. Then both agents said if its not a 16” its a sbr. I kept telling him.

Getting alot of sneers. There was like 8 agents at the booth. Also its not about the brace its about the barell. And bumpstocks are gtg now. Honestly.

leahcim 673 Posted January 19, 2023 "26 U.S.C., § 5485(a) § 5845(c) — The term “Rifle” means a weapon designed or redesigned, made or remade, and intended to be fired from the shoulder, and designed or redesigned and made or remade to use the energy of the explosive in a fixed metallic cartridge to fire only a single projectile through a rifled bore for each single pull of the trigger.' Due to the brace and the FVG, it is not designed or intended to be fired from the shoulder. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On multiple occasions the ATF has tried to go after people and they ultimately "did nothing". It's apparently better to keep the rules on the books for these purposes than have them stuck down trying to go after a single individual. In 2019 A guy in Texas was charged, and the charges later dropped for a bump stock by the DOJ. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What's the cost of freedom? You have 2 options here. Cower over the new rules, get rid of your others and spend money modifying them... you cant sell them BTW. Or, call their bluff. Are well all going to just let the FATF roll all over our 2a rights? Especially over something with such ambiguity. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On the Tech Ops website, I couldn’t find the letter from the NJ State Police saying the “other firearm” was legal in NJ. Wondering if they recently removed it? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
