U. S. Patriot Armory is based in Apple Valley, CA.  They produce unfinished AR-15 receivers.  Under current law these are considered gun parts and not guns.  They can be sold to anybody with no record keeping.  They are not serialized.  They can be turned into a functional receiver by drilling a few holes in the right places.  
New Jersey does not like that.  They have sued the company under consumer fraud laws for selling an unfinished AR-15 receiver to an A. G. investigator.  
It is illegal under state law for a New Jersey resident to buy or possess an unfinished receiver.  It is not illegal for a CA company to sell them.  Many other sellers have stopped shipping these items to New Jersey.  U. S. Patriot Armory has not.
