BlueLineFish 615 Posted March 30, 2014 Yup...legal. A belt counts as a magazine. No more than 15 rounds linked together. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wink-_-wink 1 Posted March 30, 2014 Yup...legal. A belt counts as a magazine. No more than 15 rounds linked together. I often wonder how this works.... You cant have a magazene capable of being retrned to a 30rd mag, but you can have linked ammo that can be relinked? NJ WHY U SO CRAZY! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FishNHard 145 Posted March 30, 2014 Man if I knew that I would have been putting a hurting on the card , do any of you guys own one and if so were did you get yours from if you don't mind me asking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NJ WHY U SO CRAZY! I do not personally believe having more than 15 links in your possession is legal in NJ.. as it is IMO a the same a disassembled large capacity box mag...

Clintoon Eastwood 2 Posted March 31, 2014 both are lots of fun what do you know about rpd's and 1919 junkmanted? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PK90 3,570 Posted March 31, 2014 < have sold/transferred M2, 1919, 1917, RPD, SG43, MG42, etc, in NJ. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.Stu 1,916 Posted March 31, 2014 GE mini-gun maybe? At 6000 rounds per minute you'd need to reload after 150 milliseconds Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wink-_-wink 1 Posted March 31, 2014 I do not personally believe having more than 15 links in your possession is legal in NJ.. as it is IMO a the same a disassembled large capacity box mag... but see that simply raises more questions. You can have multiple 15/30 pmags so I would assume you could have multiple 15 round links. Again... stupid NJ lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PK90 3,570 Posted March 31, 2014 I have the opposite opinion of vladtepes. I do not feel that a link is a container according to the law, and one can string as many links as one wants. Sent from an undisclosed location. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Again... stupid NJ lol multiple 15 round box mags do not make a single large cap mag... multiple links make a single long belt that can hold way more than 15... con·tain·er noun 1. an object that can be used to hold or transport something. the links hold individual bullets.. thus by the standard definition a single belt section is in fact a container?

ogfarmer 138 Posted March 31, 2014 others who own them here have already stated you can have more than 1 belt and own more than 15 links. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vladtepes 1,060 Posted March 31, 2014 others who own them here have already stated you can have more than 1 belt and own more than 15 links. so if I state you can have a 100 round drum does that make it so? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
howellgunworks 1 Posted March 31, 2014 Sold a 1919, checked with NJSP who confirmed belt links of no more than 15 rounds to maintain compliance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ogfarmer 138 Posted March 31, 2014 the reason given is they are not a continues device until linked together, unlike a 100 round drum is already complete so if I state you can have a 100 round drum does that make it so? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vladtepes 1,060 Posted March 31, 2014 Sold a 1919, checked with NJSP who confirmed belt links of no more than 15 rounds to maintain compliance. I fully understand that in practice it is allowed.. but by the literal wording of the statements surrounding NJ law.... that is another story.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vladtepes 1,060 Posted March 31, 2014 the reason given is they are not a continues device until linked together, unlike a 100 round drum is already complete disassemble it.. now it feeds nothing.. are disassembled 30 round mags ok? no.. it specificity says it is still a large cap mag unless permanently modded..

Fishpaw 17 Posted April 1, 2014 Yes...belt feds are Nj legal...ask me how I know..... Neat thing is they are firearms...not rifles, which are meant to be fired from the shoulder, and certainly not a handgun...that's obvious....they still transfer like a rifle however.

FishNHard 145 Posted April 1, 2014 Nope not at all just wanna get an idea do I want an rpd or do I go all in and get that 1919a4 bundle that OOW has, plus on the 1919 do you guys like the pistol grip or you prefer the spade grips. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
