The correct answer is: Fine and imprisonment

Unlawfully carrying a firearm without a permit in New Jersey is considered a serious offense and carries both fines and imprisonment as penalties. It is not just a matter of paying a fine or serving time in prison, the law takes this crime seriously and imposes both punishments. Option A and D are incorrect as they do not adequately capture the severity of the crime. While Option C is incorrect as it implies that imprisonment is the only penalty, when in fact both fines and imprisonment can be imposed.
