1LtCAP 4,264 Posted February 26, 2013 ok......i didn't search this, partly 'cause i'm at work.......... first off, i'm going to look into south Some other site down on piney hollow rd because it's pretty close to me, and has 300 yard rifle lanes, which i could shoot a garand in. my question........if i were to bring a friend shooting witn me from pa.....and he brought a non jersey compliant gun with him, can we legally shoot it at a new jersey range? or if i want to shoot it, should i just play safe, and go to his range in pa? thanks guys Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1563621 388 Posted February 26, 2013 I would travel to PA. Otherwise there could be some bracelets in your future! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AS350Driver 56 Posted February 26, 2013 If it's not legal here, tell your friend to leave it in PA. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YWHIC 18 Posted February 26, 2013 I live in PA and shoot in NJ.. everything I bring to NJ is NJ compliant.. I pin the stocks.. leave the fun mags at home.. weld and pin on Comp/Brakes, etc.. I had a range guy whom thought my 10 round VEPR 54R mags was more than 15 rounds.. I explained currently there is no mag for the VEPR 54R that holds 15 or more.. and then showed him the factory 5 next to it.. he then understood what I was saying.. Certain ranges will be nice and tell you to just 'stow' it.. problem would be if you get an LEO in a bad mood shooting next to you.. or you get stopped from A-B.. I've seen out of state military (stationed in NJ) thinking folding bayonets on the SKS's were OK at the range.. I casually mention the possible issues and some of the NJ laws..

GRIZ 3,369 Posted February 26, 2013 The only excuse for bringing a non NJ compliant firearm or magazine over 15 rds is FOPA. That's only for travelling through NJ. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mipafox 438 Posted February 26, 2013 The only excuse for bringing a non NJ compliant firearm or magazine over 15 rds is FOPA. That's only for travelling through NJ. Done it. I would probably have been out some serious coin if I had been pulled over And we'd all be out a few transferrables. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

halbautomatisch 60 Posted February 27, 2013 What if said SKS has a flash hider (not a comp/brake) and bayonet?? Doesn't matter, the detachable mag is the qualifier to make it an AW, without it anything goes (folding stocks, flash suppressor, bayonet, pistol grip).

This is correct. You can have what you want on a fixed magazine SKS as long as you are 922r compliant (922r is Federal law). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
