In their breathless zeal to ban so-called “ghost guns,” the rocket scientists in the NJ legislature worded their law to make possession of any gun without a serial number affixed by a federally licensed gun manufacturer a crime.
“Politicians and bureaucrats have shown their ignorance of firearm technology on my occasions in the past. But New Jersey’s latest action may just take the cake for the stupidest law ever,” remarked 2ALC President & Senior Legal Counsel Chuck Michel. “That is, assuming it wasn’t intentional.”
With this new law, NJ has just banned the following:
Anything from before 1968, including antiques and historical firearms
Nearly all foreign-made firearms (the manufacturer likely won't have a US license)
All BB guns, pellet guns, and similar because they are defined as "firearms" by NJ law. But whether they are serialized or not, the manufacturer isn't qualified.
Many black powder guns, signal cannon, and the like.
This is complicated by NJ law defining unusually broad classifications of anything resembling aimable weapons as "firearms."
Legal action is coming soon to stop this idiocy. 2ALC will be involved.
