forgive my massive amount of confusion, honestly, but i am looking up at the list and it says flash suppressor is one, but if it has a brake that would not be an evil. so the only evil would be the pistol grip, given it has no bayonet lug, suppressor, collapsible stock, and unfortunately, a 203 or grenade launcher. I guess my main confusion lies with this...If there is a brake and not a flash suppressor, and it is welded on, not pinned i should be ok with a pistol grip? given none of the others qualify.

So if that is one and the pistol grip is another....that would make it legal correct?

I have tried looking throughout these posts and have found different reasons to believe both sides. Basically, I want to buy either a M1A or a Fultons Armory receiver and buy a stock with a pistol grip. I have heard from all the "sea lawyers" different things. Today at one gun shop an employee told me I could not do this because I cant get a barrel that has a permanent muzzle brake on it. Does anyone know about this? Again, I am new to New Jerseys laws and am by no means a armorer so I am not sure what is able to be welded, pinned and all that jazz. I just want a simple M1A with a sweet stock. I thought the price would have deterred me, not the state. Thank you in advance. Also I have seen the 5 rules along with the magazine and this is where I am confused and the employee looked a little unsure. He said at first it was a rule of the 5. then I asked if i have a brake welded on would that be possible, then he stated a different rule. No hard feelings towards him, but i just didn't seem too confident that my dream was crushed. But I am kind of thinking that is the case, New Jersey has that effect on its people. Thanks.
