Is it legal to possess a silencer for a firearm in New Jersey?

  1. Yes, with a permit

  2. No, not under any circumstances

  3. Yes, for hunting purposes only

  4. Yes, but only for law enforcement

The correct answer is: No, not under any circumstances

Possession of a silencer for a firearm is illegal in New Jersey under all circumstances. This is because New Jersey does not issue permits for silencers, and the possession of a silencer is considered a felony offense. While some states allow for the possession of silencers for certain purposes, such as hunting or law enforcement, these exceptions do not apply in New Jersey. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect.
