NY legal AR-15's have done a 180degree turn

[Jfoster99 80]

 

While in NY yesterday I stopped into one of the local Gun stores I used to hang out at when I lived there. I look up at the Black Rifle Wall and I see one AR-15 after the next all with bayonet lugs, Flash hiders, adjustable stocks, ect. At first I thought they were all LE Only or something. Turns out they all had the Magazine permanently installed and were loaded from the top.

 

I personally rather go with the option below as would most people I assume but the owner said these stocks are hard to come by.

I noticed two new gunshops that opened in Rockland county this summer. The SAFE Act seems to has driven some away, but attracted others to take their place.

Windham Weaponry carries the NY AR but not sure if they would just sell the stock or not?  It’s a sad day when another state makes NJ "look like" a Free state, what a mess…

There is also another version that is called the "Spur" grip.

We have used these for AR's that go into NY so there is no pistol grip........

Im a bit confused, how do you grip that?

My guess is it's like sipping tea with three fingers extended.

Looks uncomfortable

It's not about comfort it's about freedom and giving the law a big fat finger.

you know, with a shorter (vertically) stock and a low round count mag, that'd make that thing have a really low profile. you could get flat to the ground with that.

One of our vendors sells these  MR2 lock

 

I'll be installing one on a dedicated lower for NY trips.

Yes, I get that, but from a practical standpoint, it still looks like I wouldn't want to shoot it all day.  Aw, hell, I probably would though, LOL.

The Spur, i got a few for each AR on sale just because.....Anyway I put one on to see how it felt and was a little weird having the 3 fingers "searching" for a purchase. i found a little spongerubber ball and let the fingers sqeeze onto that and it helped but still not the same but you'd get used to it if you had to  But I am worried having the ball around  as it may be called a constructive accessory....

So basically we now have break-back ARs? Are you going to neuter the screw and if so whats your perm. mag of choice?

This will serve as a defense gun on the boat when traveling into NYS.  I'm not even crazy enough to carry a handgun into NYS though on a Documented Vessel it may be perfectly legal.

 

No the screw will not be neutered and a 10rd mag holding 7 rounds will be used. stock will be pinned in shortest position and the upper will be NJ compliant. This lower will be used for NYS only using an existing NJ compliant upper.

 

My objective is to have the shortest legal AR legal in NY/NJ.

 

I'll be limited to 7 rounds but I can make it work.

What I love about all of this is the ingenuity of 'Mericans to circumvent while still complying with the law in any way, shape, or form.

I am wondering how this would work on a ak platform... my buddy in the city wants a ak bad... hmmm

"Load from the top" ?

If you are buying that I think the law is fingering you and comes first and last.

How do you load an AR from the top?

Push out the back pin with the bolt forward.

 

Personally, if I'm limited to seven rounds and a magazine that may not be detachable, I sure don't want a 5.56 AR. I would prefer an 870 or SKS. Seven rounds of 7.62 trumps seven rounds of 5.56 and loading is a lot quicker.

Shooting from the bench is fine. It's a bit unwieldy off hand. It's a lousy compromise but at least I can bring it to my other residence. 

[mipafox 438]

Seven rounds of 7.62 trumps seven rounds of 5.56

Not under 200 yards it doesn't. Every day 5.56 ball is far more deadly than any imported 7.62x39. Of course, past 200 yards it still has the advantage of hitting what you aim at

LOL ..wish we had a like button here.

NY seems like a good reason to get a mini 14
