AR pistols on permits..

Hilarity ends at the PP office................I suspect AR pistols will get nuked soon.
SP are apparently calling PP clerks regarding AR pistols listed, and calibers.

Are AR-15 pistols legal in New York? | [March Updated]

Are AR-15 Pistols Legal in New York? No, AR-15 pistols are generally illegal in New York State.

"Other"s are banned now.........ammo purchases controlled.........AR pistols legality........ is counter intuitive, like "others" were.

A 24 inch rifle with a 17" barrel and a shoulder stock is an SBR.

You mean SBS?

You mean SBS?

If the barrel has rifling then it's an SBR.

It's only a shotgun if it has a smooth barrel.

The 17" barrel would make a normal shotgun an SBS, since the limit is 18" for them.

But a rifle with a 17" barrel is still an SBR if the overall length is less than 26", even though the barrel itself is long enough.

Hmm. So something like the ps90 is just squeaking by. Hopefully the butt of the rifle doesn't wear down.

Yes.

There are actually more rifles out there skirting the 26" than there are the 16" barrel.

And it's much easier for someone to unknowingly shorten the stock too much than to cut down a barrel.

That website is giving the most wrong uninformed information I have seen in a long time. AR pistols are legal same as any other fixed magazine pistol.

First AR pistols are legal in in NY have been for years. I currently have one on my permit and have had it on permits with 3 different counties(Niagara, Monroe, and Erie).

The uppers don't get listed but a back around safe act time the state cracked down and said putting "multi" for a caliber was no longer acceptable. Told counties a caliber must be listed. The solution per most counties was that you should list all the calibers for which you have or plan to have an upper.

Then during covid the state or possibly Monroe county started interpreting an AR lower by itself to not be a pistol. A completed AR pistols was acceptable but you could no longer add a lower and build it out after. Many blue controlled counties have jumped on this since though from what I have seen not all counties hold to this. As an aside when I asked Monroe county at the time about adding a caliber they told me they wanted a purchase receipt for the upper to add it and expected an FFL to hold the upper until the caliber was added.

Given what I have seen so far its my belief that the state is trying to look for a ways to further make it harder or impossible to have an AR pistol.

I’d love to see where in nys law a pistol is defined, and thus how a fixed magazine AR pistol fails to meet that definition

Well if it’s not a pistol and it’s not a rifle then it’s an other and they are banned so I’m not sure I want the state looking at that. Maybe that’s their plan and where this is headed.

Well nys law does not define what a pistol is. So how can you say something that meets the federal definition of a pistol is somehow not a pistol, unless you define what a pistol is. Like if nys wanted to make flamethrowers illegal, they would have to pass a law defining what a flame thrower is and stating that what they defined is now illegal

Fixed mag pistol?

Glock? 1911? S&W semi autos?Taurus, Ruger, etc etc ..all have detachable mags.

AR Pistols have detachable mags.............even with Mag Locks...Letita james.

AR Revolver would have to be invented.

The cylinder in a revolver can be removed. Quite easily, in many models. Does a DA revolver therefore become a semi-auto with a removable magazine outside of the grip in your sage opinion?

Ugh. Pseudointellectualism is so outdated.

An AR pistol with a detachable mag is verboten twice in NY.

Once for having the mag attach outside the grip.

And a second time for being over 50oz.

Semi-auto definition requires the firing of a cartridge to provide the energy load the next one.

So a revolver doesn't qualify, since the mechanism doesn't extract energy from the firing to do anything else.

Yeah, I know. ZeroX was being himself and rambling about all mags being removable, AR pistols, blah blah, blah, so I was mocking him by being extra pedantic and obtuse, suggesting that a double action revolver is a semi-auto with a removable msg. Ah, never mind.

He’s saying that AR pistols with mag locks still have removable mags. I asked him if he thinks a revolver cylinder counts as a removable mag since it can be disassembled, hinting further that a double action revolver = one shot with one trigger pull, no other action required by the shooter. I fully know and understand that SA and DA revolvers are not semi-automatics.

 

[Acer-m14]

Full Auto Revolver .. and Bump Stock are banned and in the SCOTUS now LOL . .

 

[spat]

Full Auto Revolver ..

Also a full auto revolver...



And it *doesn't* use energy from the firing of a round to load the next one, so even if it was made to fire only one shot per trigger pull, it wouldn't be a semi-auto.

Would it then be a fixed magazine as well if you welded the ammo can that holds the belt to it ?

Hell, I'd love to have the ammo they went through in that video LOL.

[Zerex]

Clint Eastwood changed cylinders in Pale Rider...to keep shooting C&B pistols.

The point is.some Counties have allowed them..............others no.
I don't want one.

An AW registered AK, with underfolding stock fills the bill.....can even sling it from your shoulder with a cord..........like in Terminator 1.

I simply love the noise of the miniguns spinning and the casings hitting the ground. It’s like music to my ears.

Danyela posted a "story" on FB last week shooting a mini gun at night with tracers ..

that was fking awesome to see

she needs to make that vid public to share ..

 

[FP1201]

They had that same hissy fit yrs ago with the T/C Contenders , Assholes .

They'd loose their mind if they knew what I know about caliber conversions...or other things they don't want serfs to know.
When I amended my Licenses to reflect a MSR "Pistol" Lower I didn't list a caliber because at that point it was simply a new lower receiver....They told me "just let us know what caliber you make it into"....OK, sure I'll get right on it.

There was a guy at Knob Creek every show that ran a min-gun....I couldn't walk for an hour from the hard-on from watching it run.

 

[Acer-m14]

i remember Knobs Creek ..

that video was used in the news as a war video LOL

I even get excited to hear them run in fake Hollywood crap. My wife and kids think I’m nuts. I’m like Homer Simpson dreaming about pork and donuts.

 

[dsdmmat]

I still have 3 AR Pistols on my license, just in case I want to bring them back into the state.

WORDS, especially those written into Law have specific meaning, and the capricious and arbitrary use, or rather bastardization of them is the road to tyranny. As pointed out, the "mini-gun" doesn't rely on the black and white definitions yet is (unless a crafty shyster can make a case of it) a "Machinegun" that said, if you can figure a way around the ownership restrictions, please add me to your waiting list for one!
