I don't know if anybody has asked this in the past . But, I was wondering, if the plr16 is jersey legal, because I cant see any reason it wouldn't be.

I know you can't have a shrouded barrel on a pistol in PRNJ, but the PLRs barrel is unshrouded and I don't see any other "evil".

 

 

Yep, they are legal.

 

I think with these types of pistols they also have to come in under a certain weight. Not sure what the limit is off the top of my head.

more then 50 ounces, threaded barrel, magazine outside the grip.

 

thats 3 evil features right there. trust me though i feel you pain. I want one badly

Definately a no-go.

 

Ugly as all hell too, but that's just my opinion.

it looks better with a muzzle break and a high cap

gold star for you...

gold star for you...

 

Oh I feel so warm and fuzzy inside

Ok, I see, 2 more evils than allowed, But what of the bushmaster Carbon15 type 97 ? only 45oz and I think it has a brake that can be permanently pinned leaving only the "mag not in grip" evil. ?

So long as the barrel is not threaded it should be ok. The 97s is NOT ok though, since it weighs 58oz, and has a barrel shroud. Still ugly as all hell though.

Jesus, it's like a Mauser C96 that nutnfancy got ahold of.

Here's one for $525 shipped if you have someone (and their FFL) in a free state (PA or DE) to take delivery, then make it Jersey legal and transfer it to a NJ FFL for your own consumption

are you going to drill holes in it to make it lighter..

 

threaded barrel

magazine outside of grip

more than 50 ounces

 

how do you intend on fixing that..

Drilling holes in it would do no good. The Kel-Tec PLR16 cannot be made NJ legal under any circumstance.

 

B. a semi-automatic pistol that has an ability to accept a detachable magazine and has at least 2 of the following:

 

1. an ammunition magazine that attaches to the pistol outside of the pistol grip;
   
2. a threaded barrel capable of accepting a barrel extender, flash suppressor, forward handgrip, or silencer;
   
3. a shroud that is attached to, or partially or completely encircles, the barrel and that permits the shooter to hold the firearm with the nontrigger hand without being burned;
   
4. manufactured weight of 50 ounces or more when the pistol is unloaded; and
   
5. a semi-automatic version of an automatic firearm; and,
   

 

You could "fix" the threaded barrel part by pinning and welding a brake.

 

The magazine part cannot be fixed, nor can the weight. The AG guidelines state manufactured weight, not actual weight. According to Kel-Tec's site, the manufactured weight is 3.42 pounds, which is 54.72oz.

that was sarcasm... hense the banging head smiley..

I wonder why weight is an evil feature. If anything, the bad guys they hope to stop with these laws would tire out quicker with heavier pistols. But oh, I forgot, being over 50 ounces makes a pistol go nuclear if you throw it, creating a blast as powerful as the bomb that hit Nagasaki, or Chris Christie's bedroom after taco night.

weight is an issue because it automatically blacklists a whole bunch of "cool" "pistols"

If your goal is to make it as difficult as possible for people to legally obtain a firearm, then any restriction is a good restriction. If the Bradys could ban all guns with a serial number ending with "3" they would do it.

As I've mentioned previously, the bushmaster carbon 15 type 97 is only 46oz.. but, has a quick detach brake that I'm not familiar with. meaning, I don't know if the barrel is threaded for that type of compensator.

I do believe, this pistol would skate past the rediculasly redundant NJ laws. (except the mag pictured of course)

The quick connect and brake are an integral unit (not separable) and not threaded.

Neither is the muzzle threaded.

And yes, it is jersey-legal.

I own 2 of them, having transferred them through undoubtedly the most knowledgible FFL in the state, PK90
