(cf: P.L.2002, c.130, s.5) 2. This act shall take effect on the first day of the third month following enactment. STATEMENT This bill revises the criteria for determining whether or not a rifle is considered an assault firearm.

Under this bill, a rifle would be deemed to be an assault firearm if it is a semi-automatic that accepts a detachable magazine and has one, not two, of those qualifying configurations __________________ "...but to protest against all hunting of game is a sign of softness of head, not soundness of heart."

Great. With the widespread bayonettings we have here in the Garden State it's just common logic that we ban guns with them.... __________________ "To be unarmed and therefore helpless in the face of evil is irresponsible and in fact complicit to said evil.

Who is this bill supposed to help? When will these jackasses realize that criminals will get whatever firearm they like regardless of what firearm law is in place. And, at the same time, taking firearms away from law-abiding citizens to protect themselves. Why don't they do something to really make a difference, something that effects every NJ citizen, and figure out why I paid $102.00 to fill-up my truck this morning. __________________ Cub Scout 1973 "The people will suffer what is sufferable rather than to assume the burden of righting what is wrong."
