Friday’s appeals court ruling in the New Jersey case goes further than a July 2024 ruling from a federal judge, who said that the state’s ban on AR-15s specifically was unconstitutional but upheld the provision barring larger magazines.

The third US circuit court of appeals said on Friday in its opinion that the state’s ban on all semiautomatic rifles it deems to be “assault firearms” and its restriction on “large capacity ammunition magazines” were unconstitutional.

New Jersey’s attorney general, Jennifer Davenport, a Democrat whose office defended the law, told the Associated Press that the decision is “as unfortunate as it is legally incorrect”.

    300aac in a ‘pistol’ config? because that’s what’s actually being discussed, go back to hooked on phonics if you need a refresher. if so - in response to your query - me. That’d be ME. you stupid yokel putz.

    reconfiguring a rifle receiver as a pistol then pumping 300 blackout and still thinking it’s a pistol is fucking dumb. it’s stupid silly shit to skirt around regulations and you know it.

    didn’t think I needed to spell this shit out but here we are

      Correct, in a pistol config. 10.5in barrel and a brace. And I skirt my local hunting regulations by temporarily rendering it into a bolt action using a Kali key. Semi-auto firearms of any kind (including what you would call “actual pistols”) are not allowed for big game hunting in my state.

      The deer I’m eating would like a word with you, because you’re dead wrong.
