njJoniGuy 2,131 Posted July 20, 2018 Yes, green tip .223/5.56 (M855) IS STILL LEGAL IN NJ AND THE USA. It is NOT armor piercing under Federal or NJ definitions. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, finding a range that allows you to shoot it may be a problem though. Regards, TokenEntry Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regards, TokenEntry The ranges wont let you shoot it because the ammo is called “M855 Penetrator.” They think that means it is armor piercing when which it is not. Well it is body-armor piercing which most rifle rounds would do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pew Pew Plates 358 Posted August 1, 2018 While im sure it's not allowed at pretty much any indoor range, a dirt berm doesn't care if it's having green tips shot at it. Should be good to go at most outdoor ranges. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
