So looking at the substantially identical statue :

 

i. A semi-automatic rifle that has the ability to accept a detachable magazine and has at least two of the following:

 

(1) A folding or telescoping stock;

 

(2) A pistol grip that protrudes conspicuously beneath the action of the weapon;

 

(3) A bayonet mount;

 

(4) A flash suppressor or threaded barrel designed to accommodate a flash suppressor; and

 

(5) A grenade launcher;

 

So any semi-automatic rifle which does not have a detachable magazine like the SKS would not have to play the evil features game and could have all of them on it and still be NJ legal.

 

Opinion ?

SKS is C&R

I could be wrong, but I don't believe that NJ recognizes C&R. I think an SKS with a removable magazine is on the banned list.

Curious about whether NJ recogognizes C&R as well. My guess is no.....

you are correct . the only illegal SKS are the ones with the AK style rock and lock mags.

You'll find nothing in Nj statutes that say anything about C&R. As long as you keep the stock non-detachable magazine with the SKS anything goes. However you still need to pay attention to 922r requirements.

Sorry for being thick, but I'm confused. the "lock and rock" mags, what do you mean by that? I thought that SKS with any sort of detachable boxmags were illegal. If I bought one that had a detachable magazine, I would be committing a crime, but it's only ones with a certain type of magazine?

I don't know what the hell lock and rock mags are, but an SKS that can accept detachable magazines is illegal. An SKS with a fixed magazine is legal, and you can do whatever you want too t.

it means forget SKS.. or anything else..

 

is the gun semi auto? does it have a detachable magazine?

 

if BOTH answers are YES.. then you need to play evil features game..

if ONE of those answers is NO.. then you do NOT need to play..

"Rock & Lock" are mags made to be used with a standard SKS minus the fixed mag and with or without a duckbill adapter installed on the rifle or part of the mag itself. According the SKS forums, Tapco makes the best, supposedly. In any case, the SKS with ANY sort of detachable mag (modified or SKS-M) is illegal by name under the NJ AWB.

If you have an SKS with a fixed mag, you can put a PG+ adjustable stock, flash suppressor, etc, what-ever, keeping in mind 922r.

Basically, stock SKS with the hinged box mag are OK in Jersey. To my knowledge, the only stock configued SKS that is banned in Jersey was made in China. It came stock with the AK mag setup.

Guess this just shows my ignorance of SKSes. I always thought the mags were stationary, like the one on a Mosin, and you simply fed it with strippers. So how does it work, it's on a hinge, and swings open for loading?

No, its fed from top with strippers, the release is for unloading the mag if you need to, it drops the whole body of the mag down on the hinge.

OK, so I was looking at an chinese SKS with fixed mag which had a birdcage flash-hider on it.

 

Do they come with these ?

 

If not, What are the ramifications of this ?

nothing

Would 922r even come into play on an SKS with a fixed mag? I thought that 922r was only a concern on rifles that can accept "high cap" mags - think Saiga, all Russian parts because it can't take a mag over 10 rounds without modification.

922R only counts if you take the gun out of it's imported sporterized configuration.
