Is this New Jersey Legal

No, semi-auto shotguns with a pistol grip are prohibited in NJ. Check NJ laws HERE ( budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/new_jersey_restrictions.pdf ) I hope this helps

Can buy this gun with out going threw a gun dealer in Louisiana

Carl, unfortunately no Sir. Only most Black Powder Firearms can be shipped directly to your home. This is required by Federal Law to be transferred through an FFL Dealer. Cheers and stay safe!

Carl, no, this would have to ship to a FFL dealer/gunshop regardless of the state you live in. Any firearm you would be required to do a background check. Sorry but hope this helps

Can sabot slugs be used in this gun accurately and safely without hurting the barrel?

Paul, they will "work" but accuracy suffers and there is no reason to spend the extra money for sabot slugs if you are going to shoot them through a smooth bore. You want rifled, or foster type slugs, and you want to use improved cylinder, or cylinder choke for best accuracy. Have a great day!

Paul, yes but Foster type Rifled Slugs work best through the Cylinder Choke as far as accuracy. Cheers and stay safe!

Paul, safely yes, accurately no. It won't hurt the barrel at all it just won't be very accurate because sabot slugs need a rifled barrel to spin. So you can but for the best accuracy I'd recommend rifled slugs. Hope this helps.

Does this have m lok rails? Picanny?

Samuel, this has picatinny rails. You can remove the carry handle Wich has a picatinny rail underneath to install a optic if you wish. There's also picatinny rails on the handguard for accessories on both sides and the bottom as shown in the picture. So you can easily add a foregrip, flashlight, laser or whatever else you would want to add. Hope this helps.

Samuel, this has a full length picatinny rail across the top, and 3 shorter sections of pic rail at the front of the handguard at the 3, 6, & 9 o'clock positions, and a 4th one on the bottom rear of the handguard. Have a great day!

Samuel, yes Sir it has a Top Picatinny Rail and Picatinny Rails at the 12, 3, 6 & 9 o'clock position on the Hand Guard for adding any accessory. cheers and stay safe!

Would you suggest a lefty could use it ?

Charles, yes Sir. The stock is long enough for your face to clear the ejected shells no issue. I will take just a little practice to get used to the controls. Cheers and stay safe!

You could, but I'd go with a dedicated left handed shotgun, buds has 11 in stock to choose from here. https://www.budsgunshop.com/search.php/type/shotguns/other/in_stock/searchattr/14-10003992

Charles, Don't see why not. The stock is back far enough you won't get hit by ejected shells. Shouldn't have an issue being semi automatic, just have to learn how to manipulate the bolt release, magazine release Wich is set up for right handed shooters. It's a little pricier but here's a link to buds really only tactical left handed shotgun but it's pump action. Here's a link to it if interested.......... https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/723014007/black+aces+tactical+pro+series+fd12+bullpup+pump+12+ga+18.5+5+1+left+side+eject+black...... Hope this helps.

will this cycle varsity rnds after break in? like 1145 fps stuff.

Mr. Brandon, after the initial break in period it will cycle just about anything you put threw it. For the first 100 rounds I'd recommend standard to high velocity rounds, then give it a nice cleaning and lube and you'll be fine with lighter loads. Hope this helps.

Mr. Brandon, yes Sir it will cycle most 1145 plus loads. It is recommended to break it in with high power shells (50 or so) initially and then clean and re-lube. Some low cost full power loads in buck shot and slugs are here : budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/411559291/rio+royal+buck+12ga+2-3+4%22+00buck+9-pellet+5rds+1345fps -------------------------------------- budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/411559297/rio+royal+buck+12+ga+2-3+4%22+#4-buck+27+pellet+5rd+box
