On a slight tangent: There's a safety issue with using these fixed magazines in Rifles we've been trained to clear in a completely different manner.
We taught to put the safety on, drop the mag, and rack the slide/bolt; well it just doesn't happen that way with fixed mags and there have been and will be unintended discharges as a result. I'm not saying they cannot be cleared, only that it's just not the way it was engineered.

You can, I wrongly compared the NY10 against the "fixed" bullet-button design: the BB works, but IMHO is an accident waiting to happen because it doesn't lend itself to be cleared as easily as dropping the mag and ejecting a round. The NY10 is a better option; not as good as a regular drop-mag receiver, but the point is to keep an otherwise "illegal" rifle legal in NY as well as the obligatory FUAC.
I don't have a problem, issue, or bitch about the NY10, in fact I'm happy somebody is willing to build it.
I have a rifle with a Bullet-Button: I think it works, but there's a danger factor in that you have to take extra, deliberate steps to clear the rifle, and the possibility exists to inadvertently chamber a round, which may or may not be an issue ESPECIALLY during a stressful event.
