I see what you did there nowYeah, I know that. I quoted the post where SSBB said that rifles and shotguns have a 16 inch barrel minimum.
Not true.. the Remington tac-13 and shockwave both have barrels less than 16”Shotguns must have a minimum barrel length of 18”
I’m just trying to figure shit out to be able to own some cool shit. That’s all. But I did find out an interesting piece of information….Why would you even want to mess around even if there is a loop hole, get caught and the legal fees alone would sink you even if you are right.
What?If you have a pistol permit you can have a rifle caliber pistol as long as you owned it before unsafe act.
And those are no longer legal in NY under the newest laws passed. Ex-Trooper I know had his confiscated stemming from an issue with his tenant he was trying to evict and now NYS won’t give it back saying it falls under an AOW and is now illegal so he has to sign it over to the state or have an FFL transfer it out of stateNot true.. the Remington tac-13 and shockwave both have barrels less than 16”
There are other requirements….
So after talking more with the detective he did state that the rifle over 26” with a shorter barrel might be the gray area but that is a question left to someone with more knowledge about the law than him.
Lastly he left me with the peoples republic of New York’s newest law that I didn’t even know existed
It has to do with guns nothing being illegal in New York State unless they have issued you a license which comes with a shit ton of other requirements, laws and stipulation.
Time to move.. fuck this state
HAHA....Emailed my local (he’s a detective)c ontact and this is what I got in response
“
No, it is NOT legal.
Having ANY rifle with a barrel less than 16, would classify it as an SBR.
The answer can be found in the definition section of PL 265.00 sub 3
The NY firearms laws can often be confusing. One of the main reasons is because the NY Penal Law has its own unique definition of FIREARM.
Under NY Penal Law, a FIREARM should be thought of as something illegal to possess without a special permit.
Per NY Penal Law a FIREARM is:
a) Pistols and revolvers that are not on a permit.
b) Shotguns with a barrel less than 18”.
c) Rifles with a barrel less than 16”.
d) Rifle or shotguns with an overall length of less than 26”
e) Assault Rifles not registered under the Safe Act.
Therefore you may not possess a rifle with a barrel less than 16”. It should be noted that putting a stock on a legally registered pistol (such as a Thompson Contender, etc) makes the weapon illegal also.
It is also important to remember that a basic premise of the US constitution is that states may make laws that are MORE restrictive than federal law but NOT LESS restrictive than federal law. It is illegal, federally to possess any SBR without a federal permit (ie-tax stamp). “
So my take away is if one could build a rifle over 26” in length they could the possess a rifle with shorter barrel
Did you call the ATF yet ? Don't be afraid to find the real answer to your question .So after talking more with the detective he did state that the rifle over 26” with a shorter barrel might be the gray area but that is a question left to someone with more knowledge about the law than him.
