I recently contacted the nj state police and attorney generals office regarding altering an sks with a fixed magazine. My question was can it be altered since it is not in the general category ( semi auto, detachable magazine). the response was as long as it is not on the list, (remember, Fixed magazine), that it didnt matter if a flash hider, folding stock , and so on were added. If the first two requirements are not met- semi auto, DETACHABLE magazine, then the rest does not apply. Of course capacity rules apply still. Well I wanted to share that, and I welcome comments and experiences from others who try to navigate the mystery of NJ laws that only the law abiding try to comply with. We can all dream though, have you seen kel-tecs bull pup shotgun? P.S. anyone who needs a copy of my correspondence with the state is welcomed to it.

There are Federal regulations like 922R to consider. If your changes will take a gun out of its sporterized importable configuration, you need to play the 10 or less foreign parts game they way people do when they the swap out their monte carlo stocks on Saigas and replace them with hand grip and should stocks.

the Survivor's SKS boards is a good place to look for this type of info.
