Colt AR15 A1

[oldghost]

I like to know if a colt AR15-A1 that was brought in 1980 is legal in N.J.

If it has a flash hider , and or a bayonet lug , it is NOT legal in NJ. 
 

those two things are easily rectified though . 
 

You said A1 so I’m picturing a rifle stock , but if it was ever changed over to a carbine stock , that’s collapsible , that would make it illegal also .

If it’s an A1 it is not legal. Due to the wording in the statue, if “AR-15” is printed on the lower it is not legal.
But on a side note they are worth a good amount of money.

Read the statutes if you want the actual legalese (2C:39-1 and -3 seem to have the important stuff regarding this) - though, can't guarantee you'll understand it even if you read it:

2C:39-1: https://law.justia.com/codes/new-jersey/2019/title-2c/section-2c-39-1/

2C:39-3: https://law.justia.com/codes/new-jersey/2019/title-2c/section-2c-39-3/

There are probably parts of the NJAC (admin code)  that are relevant too, but I suspect 2c:39 will have the answer.
