Notice this applies to tubular magazines on .22s such as the Marlin/Glenfield Model 60 (one of the most popular .22s of all time. That rifle has been banned for years already in New Jersey.
My question is, the the law specify semi-autos? I'm wondering about the lever action Marlin Model 39.

Makes me want to move to New Jersey, just so I can violate that so-called "law" a thousand times over! With the stroke of a worthless politician's pen countless citizens can become a felon overnight without even doing anything. Fact is such a politician is the one who's the real felon. It's long past time to support and defend our constitution against such domestic enemies!

Judge Stephanos Bibas, a Trump appointee, was the sole judge who opposed the ban. The ruling treats the Second Amendment as protecting second-class rights, unequal with other rights, he argued. He wrote, “The Second Amendment is an equal part of the Bill of Rights. We must treat the right to keep and bear arms like other enumerated rights, as the Supreme Court insisted in Heller [the decision which struck down D.C.'s repressive laws]. We may not water it down and balance it away based on our own sense of wise policy.”
Joke update:
' ..... so I drove her to New Jersey. And became a felon'
And this is what these laws will push more and more people to do - ignore all laws
