Fmj Legal in Nj

@txradioguy, yes. It looks like a very old article (2014). I live this day in and day out, trying to get an honest answer from the New Jersey State Police Department of the Gun Investigation Unit or anyone else who really knows. I think that is the problem. The information doesn`t come out, so no one, not even the police, really knows. But in your article, one thing is right: hunters can use hollow points to hunt. As for self-defense in a house or apartment, I can`t get a real answer and I have friends in our local police department. They are not even sure. When Governor Murphy decided that 15 film clips were illegal in New Jersey, even the police didn`t know what to take with them on their days and nights off. Nor did they want to break the law. This condition is so anti 2A that it is pathetic. If and when I can afford to move, I`m out of here. I will look for a beautiful 2A state to live.

Hollow-point projectiles are also banned in the state of New Jersey, with a few exceptions. With the exception of certain athlete activities, such as target shooting and hunting, hollow-nose or hollow-point bullets are illegal under state law. In addition, individuals are allowed to possess such ammunition on their private property or when travelling for purchase purposes. This type of ammunition has a divot or cavity at the end of a hollow point or nose ball that allows the bullet to expand when it hits the target intended by the shooter, resulting in a much more deadly outcome and impact. A Hudson County prosecutor who charged an owner with killing an intruder with a .45 JHP told me that JHP ammunition was illegal. This is corrupt NJ, not the rest of the country, and the law means nothing in certain circumstances. The homeowner was found to have full authority to shoot the intruder who broke into his home and stabbed him first, but he was still charged with possession of JHP. Lesson: Never take legal advice from your LGS (or LEO for that matter). I can say that with great certainty. but I seem to remember that they created these rounds shortly after the hollow point ban went into effect in order to circumvent the New Jersey law. You are legal in your state the last time I checked.

Tracer bullets are legal to possess, but not legal to fire in New Jersey. Because here in New Jersey, all the rules make sense. When Governor Murphy decided that 15 film clips were illegal in New Jersey, even the police didn`t know what to take with them on their days and nights off. In addition to ammunition issues, many weapons, such as sawed-off shotguns, are illegal in New Jersey. Possession of a sawed-off shotgun is a third-degree felony. The state has also banned offensive weapons and many other weapons. The consequences are serious for those found in possession of illegal weapons, ammunition, magazines and modifications of weapons or ammunition. Are FMJ ammunition acceptable, at least for range? I read that they are illegal, so I accumulate overpriced defensive ammunition (Hollow Point) that is legal to possess, where I keep it for now. Don`t try to put my defensive ammunition within range lol He then told me that the red-tipped Hornadys are the only JHPs that can be legally used in the state of New Jersey. Yes, it`s legal. The only ammunition I know of is illegal is «armour-piercing» handguns.

Possession of certain types of ammunition in New Jersey is illegal due to the nature of the ammunition. First and foremost, bulletproof vests or dum-dum that penetrate or pierce bullets are generally illegal for the public in the state of New Jersey. Ammunition designed to penetrate, pierce or pierce bulletproof vests is primarily intended for use in handguns. The design of the sphere consists of a core or envelope (if the jacket is more than 0.025 inches thick) that is made of tungsten carbide, dense bronze, or another material stronger than an index of 72 or higher on the Rockwell B hardness scale and therefore capable of penetrating the bulletproof vest. Currently, the state is working to make bulletproof vests that penetrate bullets only for law enforcement officers. Collectors can buy and collect such ammunition, but can only have three representatives of each distinctive variant. Examples of different variations may include differences in material composition, ball design, or head stamps according to 2C:39-3(f). See N.J.S.A. 2C:39-3(f) for the NJ codes detailed in this case and N.J.S.A. 2C:39-6 for the applicable exceptions. The possibility of being tried by corrupt police and prosecutors in a new legal mess on HP doesn`t seem worth the help a helping hand a better target could have eliminated.

JHP is completely legal for HD in New Jersey. Just be sure to carry them directly from home to the shooting range and back (like handguns). IANAL, but IMO all JHP are legal for home defense in New Jersey. The laws on JHP in New Jersey for the law-abiding citizen don`t say where you can use them, they say where you can own them.
