There is enough wiggle in NJ law to make anything illegal. Anyone know the official status of XM855 in NJ? Do the retail gun shops sell it? Thank you (P.S., even if legal this is not something I want in my house in case the law changes while I'm sleeping.)

Because the statute was ruled unconstutional on its face It might be illegal for the Feds to enforce it in any state, but I do not think it gives anyone who lives in a restrictive state any additional substantive rights. However, a victory is a victory, and the strict scrutiny standard is a strategic win.

I bet this really cuts down on the number of guys who try to get a duplicate card.

Товарищ, это сарказм (Comrade, this is sarcasm)

Because it's not.

"Firearm" means any handgun, rifle, shotgun, machine gun, automatic or semi-automatic rifle, or any gun, device or instrument in the nature of a weapon from which may be fired or ejected any solid projectable ball, slug, pellet, missile or bullet, or any gas, vapor or other noxious thing, by means of a cartridge or shell or by the action of an explosive or the igniting of flammable or explosive substances. It shall also include, without limitation, any firearm which is in the nature of an air gun, spring gun or pistol or other weapon of a similar nature in which the propelling force is a spring, elastic band, carbon dioxide, compressed or other gas or vapor, air or compressed air, or is ignited by compressed air, and ejecting a bullet or missile smaller than three-eighths of an inch in diameter, with sufficient force to injure a person. k.

I understand that a handgun without a firing pin has been held to be a firearm for the purpose of New Jersey possession And I understand that a stripped receiver is a firearm under Federal law for the purpose of interstate sale But where does it say that a stripped receiver is a firearm for New Jersey possession?

Where does it say that? I have shotguns with matching serial numbers on the receiver and the barrels.

From 1973: The Superior Court of New Jersey, Appellate Division . . . held in State of New Jersey v. Valentine(124 N.J.Super. 425) that a statutory exception permitting one to keep or carry about a firearm at his place of business or dwelling would not be extended to include the manager of a bar owned by another. In Valentine, the defendant was convicted of possession of a revolver — carrying a weapon on his person in a public place without a permit in violation of section 2A:151-41 of the New Jersey Statutes. v

Anyone able to say what the following are defined to be under New Jersey gun law: 1. Complete slide for a semi-automatic pistol, with firing pin and bolt. 2. Complete lower for a semi-auto pistol (with serial number) 3. Complete upper for a semi-auto black rifle, with firing pin and bolt (no flash hider or bayonet lug) 4. Complete lower for a semi-auto black rifle (with serial number). 5. Complete stock and receiver from a side by side shotgun with no barrels (with serial number) 6. Complete rear part of a Winchester Model 12 (with serial number) 7. Complete front part of Winchester Model 12 (with serial number)

In practical terms, it's not legal unless a judge says it's legal. For example, the statutes might say that it is legal to have a handgun at your place of business, but at least one New Jersey Appellate Court has held that it must be a business owned by you and not merely the place that you work. Get nabbed with a handgun at work and it's bad day at the office. Thus my question: Has any New Jersey Court held that possession of an unloaded long gun outside the home by the holder of an FID card is not a crime?

We all know, or should know, that transport of a handgun in New jersey must be by the most direct route, and adult diapers are advised. However, my reading of the New Jersey Statutes indicates that as long as you have the FID card, it is legal to possess an unloaded long gun outside your home. Is there any New Jersey Court case which in fact held that it was not a crime for an FID holder to possess an unloaded long gun outside the home?

Gun shop I was in this evening could not get an answer back on applications by three different customers. Is NJ NICS getting slow again, or was it just a Tuesday after a long weekend?

You can call me a wimp, but I will not put anything but a target crown on a black rifle. I do not want to ever be in the position of having to prove that a compensator is not a flash hider. Also, I consider it rude to shoot a compensated gun, even a .223/5.56, if anyone is next to you at the range.

DPMS LR308 right hand without the shell deflector used to hit me in the face every round. Do you think it held a grudge against me because I'm a lefty?

At some point NJ will be 10 rounds, hopefully not 7 like New York.

My last post on this subject. I looked up the statutes when I wanted to know if New Jersey allowed one of its residents flying out of Newark Liberty to take a handgun for protection on a camping trip in brown bear country in a state that allows handgun carry. The answer, unfortunately, is that you have to rely on FOPA to drive to the Philadelphia airport or risk getting eaten by Mr. Bear.

Here Comrades are what seem to be applicable exceptions from 2C:39-6(e) and (f). If you comply with subsection (g) (unloaded etc., see below), it looks like you might be able to transport through Newark Liberty: 1) While moving from your residence in New Jersey to a free place like Texas. 2) While going from your residence in New Jersey to an out of state gun range and back. It would, however, appear to be problem to go from home and through Newark Liberty if you are going out of state for a bit and want to carry while in a state that honors the Second Amendment. Subsection (g) is here: If you do not comply: Go directly to jail Do not pass Go Do not collect $200

To me, the A2 is big, uncomfortable, hard on the shoulder, and the metal on the butt plate and sling loop will scratch other guns in safe -- and it's ugly.

Comrades: You no appreciate or understand New Jersey gun law. All guns illegal in People's Republik absent wonderful exceptions granted by glorious legislature with much insight and wisdom. No exception allow transport handgun to airport. Failure to understand require you report now to reeducation center for eliminate reactionary idea Second Amendment protect individual People not Glorious Garden State.

Carbon fiber out of the box hand guard on a DPMS 243 Lite Hunter. This is one of the newer ones that come with the carbon fiber hand guard and a Hogue grip. The A2 stock is disappointing and will eventually be be replaced with a fixed Ace skeleton stock. Notice the official sticker certifying this as a New Jersey legal Non-Assault Weapon.

All possession and transport of handguns in New Jersey is illegal with certain statutory exceptions. New Jersey transport laws allow us transport a handgun from the dealer to our home, possess it in our home, and transport it from our home to the range and from the range back to our home. What statute allows someone without a carry permit to transport a handgun to Newark Liberty or to possess it there?
