Can you hunt with ML under Shotgun Permit?

Why do you keep saying shotgun?  I'm talking about smoothbore muzzleloaders. Chapter 39 of the NJ Statutes shows exceptions. 

F&w regs are not supposed to supersede laws but they make and enforce regs that are contrary to the laws.  The law says you can and the regs say you can't. The law says you can't and the regs say you can.  F&W ignores the laws they are required to follow.

My last response.  It is a permit shot gun season,  a smothe bore black powder shot gun is a shot gun a black powder smooth bore pistol is not a shot gun,  you can not hunt with a pistol during a shot gun permit season..  there there is the end.  That's what this was about hunting with the smooth bore pistol..

The laws and regulations say smoothbore muzzleloader in a range of calipers are allowed.  It doesn't say shotgun.   It doesn't say shotgun muzzleloader.  It specified certain powders are allowed for muzzleloaders. It does not specify barrel length. 

Both guns that I posted are smoothbore muzzleloaders.

I see smoothbore muzzleloader and muzzleloader rifle two different things. Tell me what's illegal about the smoothbore that I posted.

Show me where it says shotgun???  It says smoothbore muzzleloader it does not say smoothbore shotgun.

It is a shot gun permit not a smooth bore muzzle loader permit..  good luck doing it as you will have more charges than just hunting with an illegal weapon

That's really lame.  The regs clearly State that a smoothbore muzzleloader can be used during the permit shotgun season

No that's what it says shot gun permit, and also that is smaller than 20 guage so you are wrong there as well

The other gun shoots a .36 projectile also specified as legal to use.

No it’s not! If you’re using a smooth bore, it’s not a rifle, as you also stated numerous times. So if it’s not a rifle, it is simply a muzzleloader correct? As such, it can not be smaller then a 20 ga., which is clearly stated.
