A 1913 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Prohibits use of firearms and firearms-related items as raffle prizes.

This bill prohibits offering any firearm or firearm-related item as a prize in raffles across New Jersey. It directly affects raffle organizers, including businesses, nonprofits, and community groups, by banning prizes like guns, holsters, ammunition, or storage equipment. The law defines "firearm" broadly to include handguns, rifles, shotguns, and even air guns, while "firearm-related items" covers anything used with firearms (e.g., cleaning kits or displays). The prohibition takes effect immediately upon enactment.
