I just read that any type of AK-47 or 74 is illegal in NJ. I thought the gun, meeting specific requirements, was legal on all US state?

AK-47 and AK-74 are banned by name.

 

You can get a "clone" - like a WASR-10, Saiga 7.62/5.45, etc.

This.

 

Read the details in the thread I'm linking, it will explain a good deal of NJ rifle laws.

AK-47 is and AK-74 is not banned by name. Avtomat kalashnikov types were banned by name (and who is to say the AK on your gun doesnt stand for something else...?) UNTIL the list was deemed too vauge by that sussex county case so the list does not matter, as long as it meets the evil feature requirements. Even if it says "AVTOMAT KALASHNIKOV" on the side of the rifle it is NOT IDENTICAL TO ITSELF if it does not have 2 or more features. If I write COLT AR-15 on my air gun is it illegal? NO. Of course, IANAL, but this is pretty solid...

 

Either way, I have yet to see an AK style rifle actually say AK on it at all except those IO rifles.

This is why I own a US Carbine, because it complies with the evil feature guideline AND it is not an "M1 Carbine Type" firearm.

Will you do an FFL transfer for an NJ resident who also wants to own a US Carbine?
