Masterpiece Arms defender 9mm: Yay or nay?

Considering one of these as a range toy... are they NJ compliant? Any opinions on them?

I kind of dig the MAC10 aesthetic of the top cocker, but I also think the MPA30DMG looks cool. I wonder if it takes the same Glock mags my SUB2000 does.

    If you got one of the special order ones without a threaded barrel, I think it would be legal with a pinned magazine.

    I've shot both a MAC10 and an UZI and they really are not worth the hype. I can't imagine this being any better.

    That's a fair take.

    For some reason I recalled reading on here that it could be compliant. Ah well, I'm sure there are better things :) Thanks for the input all!

    All of those pistols (with maybe the exception of the DMG) are over 50oz. And whether they have a barrel shroud is open to debate. So even with a non threaded barrel they are still possibly a no go.

     

    MPA used to make a few smaller versions of these pistols that were under 50oz and were NJ legal, but they stopped making them a few years ago

    Aha! I see. Thank you for the full clarification!
