In New Jersey, are armor-piercing bullets legal?

  1. Yes, for military and police use

  2. Yes, for everyone

  3. No, they are illegal

  4. Yes, but only with special permission from the state

The correct answer is: No, they are illegal

Armor-piercing bullets are designed to penetrate body armor and cause significant damage. Therefore, they are considered dangerous and are strictly regulated in most states, including New Jersey. This means they are not legal for anyone to purchase or possess, regardless of their intended use. Option A is incorrect as it implies that only certain groups can access armor-piercing bullets, when in fact they are illegal for everyone. Option B is also incorrect because it suggests that anyone can use these bullets, which is not the case. Option D is also not correct as special permission from the state is not enough to make the possession or use of armor-piercing bullets legal. Option C is the correct answer as it accurately reflects the current laws in New Jersey regarding armor-piercing bullets.
