Heckler & Koch SP89

[McClane 4]

Is HK's SP89 legal in NJ?

 

I know I can get 15rd mags but I don't know much about this weapon or if it's legal. It's only a semi-auto 9mm pistol.

[tbtrout 141]

NO

[McClane 4]

Do you know why?

[tbtrout 141]

We live in NJ and they are on the banned list.

[McClane 4]

Where can one find this "banned" list?

[tbtrout 141]

State police website.

[McClane 4]

I don't see it.

 

It lists the HK91,93,94, MP5,& PSG-1. It states anything similar or identical would be banned but it's not identical to any of these.

[tbtrout 141]

your right it is not on the list ( I could have sworn it was on there). There are so many nuances to nj law it is hard to keep track of. I have never seen it for sale in NJ.

 

this is why

 

A semi-automatic pistol that has an ability to accept a detachable magazine and has at

least two of the following:

(1) An ammunition magazine that attaches to the pistol outside of the pistol grip;

(2) A threaded barrel capable of accepting a barrel extender, flash suppressor,

forward handgrip, or silencer;

(3) A shroud that is attached to, or partially or completely encircles the barrel and

that permits the shooter to hold the firearm with the non-trigger hand without being

burned;

(4) Manufactured weight of 50 ounces or more when the pistol is unloaded; and/or

(5) A semi-automatic version of an automatic firearm; and

Too bad, nice gun and supposedly very accurate.

I received an H&K SP 89 from Rays before they closed....They are absolutely legal in NJ (believe it or not)

really?

[The_Matrix 105]

Should be legal. Not on the list. Not a rifle, but a pistol. But expensive as hell. I see them for $3,000+. How much was yours?

[tinyboy 1]

Its called a large frame pistol but I mean, is it?

No way its legal.

 

You've got (1), (3) and (4) - its 70 ounces.
