Howdy fellas,
I am a senior mechanical engineering student who just got a decent-paying job in Moorestown, New Jersey. Though currently a resident of Maryland, I'm quite aware that Jersey is even less a hospitable place for the shooter. The fact that I was even able to find a job with the current situation of the economy out here fills me with relief, so please none of that "go elsewhere" talk.
I've heard that Jersey has a <15 round mag limit, and bans MANY of the EBRs by name. I have a RRA NM AR-15 that is of a ban configuration (no hider/lug, solid stock), whose status I would like to determine under Jersey law. I understand that lowers stamped 'AR-15' are totally banned, but mine is stamped 'LAR-15'. Does anyone who currently (or has previously) lives/ed in Jersey know specifically if RRA lowers are on the banned or non-banned list?
Additionally, I know that I would need a FID to PURCHASE a new firearm in the state, but does that apply to merely 'bringing in' an unbanned arm through moving? What about handguns (<15 rds)? Are there any limitations on ammo purchase? I've heard some talk of hp ammo being of tenuous status, so please enlighten me. What about handloading?
Thank you for your help. I might come up with even more questions
Edit- I'm not moving until the summer, so I'm trying to get some information straight beforehand.
