I doubt it but just wanted to ask.

Also, I guess you would need to have a pistol permit for it as well?!

Do you need a pistol permit for these?

NJ or NY?

NJ: "Permit to Purchase a Handgun" is needed

NY: ???????

In NY you'll also need a permit, along with worrying about weight restrictions and such.  I know the Bushmasters are legal, but I'm not sure of anything with a forward handguard.

In NJ, I never thought that there was a restriction on pistols if they have a "forward handguard."
However, there is a law against having a pistol with a stock.

I think you can put a folding stock on the OA93s.
I also believe there is a company that makes them but cant remember which one.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is getting complicated

The OA-93 is definitely a no-go.  No semi-autos over 50 ounces.  If you add a stock to the above pistols, you must make the barrel at least 16".

So, does this mean the OA98 is legal in NJ at 49 oz?
