(Section "r" summarized from Chapter 2C:39-1) "Weapon" means anything readily
capable of lethal use or of inflicting serious bodily injury. The term
includes, but is not limited to all (4) stun guns; and any weapon or (this
section refers to tear gas and has been updated in 1995) other device which
projects, releases, or emits tear gas or any other substance intended to
produce temporary physical discomfort or permanent injury through being
vaporized or otherwise dispensed in the air.



(t) "Stun gun" means any weapon or other device which emits an electrical

Senate, No. 2871 -- L.1985, c. 360



Senate Bill No. 2781, as amended by the Senate Law, Public Safety and Defense
Committee, prohibits as a crime of the fourth degree the possession of a stun
gun by any person, including a law enforcement officer. A crime of the fourth
degree carries a penalty of imprisonment for up to 18 months, a fine of up to
$7,500, or both. Prior to being amended the bill classified possession of a
crime in the third degree. {Editor’s Note: According to Len Lawson of NJ
Legislative Council, (609) 292-4625) NJ does not classify crimes in felonies
versus misdemeanors. The highest crimes are in first degree on down to fourth
degree. A fourth degree penalty is a serious charge and is generally
considered a misdemeanor in common terms. It is however an indictable offense.
A fourth degree crime does contain "a presumption of non-custodial
sentencing," meaning that there is not imprisonment if there are no prior
convictions. In some cases the sentencing is obviated from one’s record if
there is a period of good behavior following the charge.}



The committee amended the bill to include a provision authorizing the Attorney
General, at his discretion, to exempt law enforcement officers from the
prohibition against possession stun guns.



The bill also was amended by the committee to include stun guns in the
definition of "weapon" in paragraph r. N.J.S. 2C:39-1.



(Chapter 2C:39-1)



(h) Stun guns. Any person who knowingly has in his possession any stun gun is
guilty of a crime in the fourth degree.
