Thats
Yeah, must be a monroe county thing they want barrel length on the ammendment form. Although a note on barrel length, if you go long enough to reach an oal of more then 26 inches, the atf no longer considers it a handgun, and you can put a vertical grip on it, without running afoul of the aow laws

So what would it be under nys law, this ar with 26" OAL and 16 inch barrel but no buttstock? A prohibited firearm? Just a firearm like a spade gripped set up? Do the feature bans apply?

That is the million dollar question. Given that it isn't a rifle, isn't a shotgun, and according to the atf isn't a pistol, it seems like it couldn't qualify as an assault weapon in ny regardless of its features. Having said that, I don't have a legal defense fund, so I put a mag lock on mine.

I would certainly be interested in a lawyers opinion, but haven't spent the time or money to get it yet.

Would be nice if we could get somebody exempt, leo or manufacturer or something, to make this and force the state to rule what it is.
