Long barrel handgun that shoots a rifle cartridge vs. SBR

[Radek 73]

When I was on a project in MN, I shot a friend's single shot break-open handgun that shot a rifle cartridge (in his backyard; yeah, 90 acres worth! :shock: ). I think it was a 270 and it had a 12+" barrel

 

There is always the issue with an SBR. If the handgun is registered as such, then what is an SBR?

 

Bottom line, would such a handgun be legal in NJ? No, I don't want to put a rifle butt-stock on it :shifty:

 

If such a handgun is legal in NJ, what brands you have experience with?

TC Contender and Encore. Both NJ legal. both Excellent pistols. YES NJ LEGAL

If the handgun is registered as such, then what is an SBR?

Basically, a pistol with a shoulder stock.

 

Bottom line, would such a handgun be legal in NJ?

Yes, with out a stock and not a semi-auto.

 

If such a handgun is legal in NJ, what brands you have experience with?

None. IMO, accuracy is a problem unless you benchrest.

Just to chime in, as stated by others, if you put a stock on a pistol without a tax stamp that's an SBR, but also remember, if you put a vertical grip on a handgun it also becomes an AOW, another big no-no without proper tax stamps.
