Is this no longer legal to own in NY?

Yes I have realized that.
Thank you all for the input. I’ve learned my lesson and will now take my business elsewhere. It’s unfortunate because they are close to my house and have not given me problems in the past. I have found an FFL that not only will transfer the firearm to me but actually had it in stock. Thanks again!!

Yup. My local FFL said no threaded barrels, period, for a 'fixed-mag' AR-15.
They are all scared to death of being audited by the ATF, just maybe?

If you're in a relatively friendly municipality, it would be worth the $20 or $50 filing fee to take them to small claims court for what their bullshit is going to cost you.
Dark Stain is asshole!

DSI. Wow, what a poor excuse. Sorry for your bad experience MackM. I hope you find some good guys to shoot with on LI and a normal FFL (ie: helpful/the kind who knows what they are talking about or finds out and doesn't make crap up). It's not rocket science. Consider the extra hassle, shipping and transfer fee to be a cheap lesson in choosing and FFL and knowing what questions to ask. Thank goodness you now have a forum to ask questions before moving forward next time as well.

In their eyes thats pedophilia and people crossing the border without papers. Anything related to traditional American values, guns, the BOR and Constitution is out dated and should all be illegal.

Marijuana and commie riots. Those are the two.

After all is settled, you should let someone in authority at DSI know your decision not to trade with them any longer and why.

Yeah, that’s the problem. DS has a well deserved bad reputation.
You got that right. I’m glad I found this forum

Welcome to NYGF, not to chase you away but check out this forum it's a bit closer to home for you. I do myself as a former Long Islander Forums - Long Island Gun Club Might be helpful finding a place to shoot and such.

And what specific new law is that? I’m sure they have no problem referencing which specific new law it is since they are so well versed in the law.

Just build the next one (yes you will want more ) yourself and bypass all the bullshit.
Oh I plan on it. Not that they’ll care but I have have spent thousands of dollars there. Never again

And when they say to you, 'that's great, who'd you use?', tell them it's NOYFB.

Dark Stain are clowns. They tried to pull some bullshit after unSAFE was passed that they had official clearance from NYSP thst their product was the ONLY legal option of owning an AR in NY Yada, Yada, Yada. Dirtbags.

Nobody knows as the SAFE is totally arbitrary and full of holes.

Be careful with the rubber bands.
Don't forget, a wrist brace on that slingshot makes it illegal in NY.
Shit's so bad you can't even make up things stupider.

Can't dsi change the grip? They build firearms, I'm sure they have the proper licenses needed to swap a grip before transfer.
Probably just mad you didn't buy from them. After my first experience sending a stripped lower to a ffl I'll always call before hand now. Less of a headache.

Yes they could change the grip,they are just being cunts(it's kinda their thing)
Side note I have seen ar's for sale locally at a dealerwith fins installed so Darkstain was being double cunty.

Can and Will are very different things.
The extra skeezy part of this is that they won't own up to the fact that they are just unwilling.
They are trying to claim the law requires it, when in reality they're just dicks.

Then nearly all FFL’s in NYS would be arrested. DD’s ranch by me does this all the time. The only part registered or that’s a firearm is the receiver. They can do a lot of stuff.
The shark fin I could see them questioning, but why don’t they just pin the mag or swap the grip? As others have said find a new FFL. Unfortunately any costs will be on you and the return price won’t be cheap.
