+1 "Correct. This law applies to semi-auto only."

Hey OP: Here is a link for all the pro se forms, directions, etc you will need for an expungement in NJ. http://www.judiciary.state.nj.us/prose/ ... ge_kit.pdf Mind you as advised above you dont need a lawyer to do it yourself, but it will make it easier. GOOD LUCK

THIS: "Semi-auto shotguns can not have mags that hold more than 6 rounds AND can not have a folding stock AND can not have a pistol grip. Any single one of those characteristics make it an assault weapon under the section UHF quotes above."

Paul is correct above re. the shades of gray. The problem is that no one wants to find themselves too far into the "gray" area if some prosecutor wants to make an example out of them. There was a case I remember reading where the court paid particular attention to a stamped name on the receiver / barrel... I think it was a M1 carbine. In any event, stay as far out of the gray and get a saiga etc without the evil baby-killer features such as a folding stock... etc. Good luck.

Not sure where the PA public ranges are... but Easton is probably like 40 mins from Bridgewater.

You may want to try easton fish and game. Awesome range, 100 yard rifle, dedicated rimfire range, pistol range as well.
