Hey guys, dumb question, I did alot of searching- You can legally finish an 80% lower here right? Is this true if you DON'T have an FID? (but have no disqualifying things against you)

I would imagine a jury would be a lot more sympathetic to a defendant who, as a NYS resident, took an 80% receiver and built a legal personal gun and then moved to NJ  than they would to a NJ resident who went out of state and returned with a newly manufactured gun made from an 80% receiver.  Mistress Anne and her flying monkeys are going to try and shove it up your ass either way, but they'll get a lot farther prosecuting the sneaky NJ resident.

It's been a 3-way contest among Kalifornia, NYS and the PRNJ to see which can become the first Gun-Free state.  
Though lately, Massa2shits and Maryland are coming up in the pack and starting to show strong.
