Which of the following is a legal place to fire a firearm in New Jersey?

  1. State forests during hunting season with the appropriate license

  2. Within city limits for self-defense

  3. At any public park

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: State forests during hunting season with the appropriate license

State forests in New Jersey allow for the legal use of firearms during hunting season with the appropriate license. This is because hunting is a regulated activity in state forests and requires the necessary permit and license. Option B, within city limits for self-defense, is incorrect because firing a firearm within city limits is generally prohibited and only allowed in designated shooting ranges. Option C, at any public park, is also incorrect because firing a firearm in a public park is considered a violation of public safety and is strictly prohibited. Lastly, option D, "none of the above," is incorrect because state forests during hunting season with proper licensing is an accepted and legal location to fire a firearm in New Jersey.
