If you dont understand look up murphys ghost gun provisions in the law
This is one of the main reasons I moved out!Here it comes........New Jersey
If there is no touch hole on a flintlock it cant shoot, therefore if it can't be shot it isn't a firearm. Check out shipping options at Loyalist Arms.The P-R excise tax applies to all kinds of "outdoor sporting equipment", not just firearms. If fishing rods & reels are P-R taxed, I would bet muzzleloaders are as well. The lack of a touch hole may be to avoid some other tax or import fee, however, as P-R tax is hidden in the retail sale price. It's 11%, BTW. Heaven knows there are plenty of taxes out there.
I understand and I have backed out of my original post. Feel free to shut down this thread.Based on your last few posts I would say the answer to your problem is simple.
Give up the idea of building a gun of any kind while you live in the state of NJ.
The Gun Builder's Bench is here for people to talk about building or repairing muzzleloading and cap & ball guns.
It is not here to post about political things or social injustices. Those things can be talked about in the "Premium" areas of the forum, not here.
