I bet it's an assault "weapon". Now how am I doing? Huge difference.
An Assault "rifle" is defined by the DOJ as being able to fire fully automatic or select fire. That's the general description. Notice I used no quotes.

Gents-- You are mixing terminalogy between NJ Law (which is confusing to begin with) and Federal Law. An assault rifle is prohibited in NJ as it has the capability of full automatic fire. An "assault weapon" is defined within NJ law as any semi-automatic pistol, rifle or shotgun that within each of those categories as features that make them "assault weapons". The idiot NJ law makers forgot that as defined by Federal law there is a fourth category called "Other" which they forgot to include in the law and you can all of the "evils" on a weapon defined as "Other".

Does anyone on here have the ability to access the NJ database so I can avoid a more formally inquiry? Or know someone who is friendly to my plight?

Able Fox-- I would check and see if there is a system of "freedom of information act" similiar to Federal laws and make a written request to the NJ State Police Firearms Investigation Unit. The worst they can tell you is No!

Your statement would read that NJ has a definition and legislation for an assault rifle then.
I'm not the one confused nor mixing terms so you're quoting the wrong person which adds confusion. I'm clarifying. Quotes were used in Sunrays post, therefore the source document must be available to prove the quote. So, no. I'm not confused having already stated the difference between the two.
We can assume the quote is another false statement or he would've posted the document if he had one. He could also acknowledge he made a mistake I suppose.
I searched NJ/gov's site and find no definition for "assault rifle" anywhere, hence the initial question. The M1 Carbine is not defined as an asault rifle. It's defined as an "assault firearm" which is a semi-automatic with a detachable magazine and having some additional features. Legal terms/definitions are all that matter when quoting legal declarations. Your attorney is limited to them.

There is no definition of "assault rifle" in NJ state statutes. An assault rifle is a rifle capable of both semi-auto and full auto fire. Under the NJ definition of "machine gun" any weapon capable of full auto fire is prohibited. There is also several presumptions that are in play here in regards to NJ firearms statues. First, you are guilty until you can provide that you are innocent. Second, there is no reason to assume there is any logic to the statues. For example, The M1 Carbine and other models like the "plainfield carbine" are banned by name. but if you produced an exact copy and call it the "NJ carbine" it would not be ban. The second part of that equation is firearms that are "substantially identical". The interpretation of that part of the law is not in the statutes themselves but a ruling by the NJ Attorney Generals Office. Confused enough yet. Given that it an interpretation by the Attorney General's Office that interpretation can change with each administration that comes into office. Well, if you want to fight it in the NJ courts get your bank roll out as the courts are in lock step with the antigun administration until you get to the Federal court system. In the meantime you are spending hundreds of thousand of dollars on bail and lawyers fees. That's is the reality of the NJ justice system. NJ is NOT a gun friendly place to be.

Agreed, BAR.
NJ is not a mystery to me as far as how skewed it is against traditional American values. It's progressing exactly as the rulers there want it.

Anyway, that's a very late Inland. I wouldn't be surprised if it was either a 'hand-stamp' on the M'1' or actually marked 'M2', in which case it probably no longer exists.

Especially since I started on the original Culver forum. That had to be about 1998.

Wasn't an M2 selective fire? I do know this was semi automatic.
