(5), (j), (n), (o), (p), or (r), 18 U.S.C.
§ 924 (b) or (h), or 26 U.S.C. §
5861, conviction under subsection
(a), (b), (c), or (d) would probably be
deemed a "firearm offense" AF. If
term of imprisonment of at least one
year is imposed, conviction under
subsection (a)-(j) might also be
deemed a "crime of violence" AF.
See note on New Jersey 4th degree
offenses and “crimes of violence” at
end of chart.
Because statute does
not require intent to
use, conviction would
probably not be
considered a CIMT.
Conviction under subsections
(a),(b),(c) or (d) would be
considered a FO if record of
conviction establishes that
offense involved a firearm or
destructive device (as defined
in 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)).
