A side effect / intentional effect of the "others" ban...they are banning anything that's not a rifle or shotgun...meaning no more stripped recievers.

Correct me if I'm wrong...but anything that's not a rifle or shotgun is now a firearm and hence illegal.

Wow the hits just keep on coming.

You're connecting state and federal laws by the words firearm and other.
That's not valid.
NYS law defines a rifle as not a firearm, that's a stupid  definition, different than anywhere else

A stripped lower is a firearm by federal law because it is the serialized piece of the potential firearm.

It's not a firearm by state law because it does not expel a projectile.

A lower is an other firearm by fed law because it's not a rifle or pistol yet.

It's not an other firearm by state law because it's not a firearm.

Yeah I'm confused then.

I guess I'm reading the part where it says any housing that holds the fire control group is now a firearm in New York hence illegal without an exemption.

ANY OTHER WEAPON THAT IS NOT OTHERWISE  DEFINED  IN  THIS
SECTION  CONTAINING  ANY  COMPONENT THAT PROVIDES HOUSING OR A STRUCTURE
DESIGNED TO HOLD  OR  INTEGRATE  ANY  FIRE  CONTROL  COMPONENT  THAT  IS
DESIGNED  TO OR MAY READILY BE CONVERTED TO EXPEL A PROJECTILE BY ACTION
OF EXPLOSIVE.

Doesn't that sound like they are defining a stripped lower receiver?

I know the lower does not expel the projectile but I'm not sure about the fire control group part...

It's being lumped into the firearm category of state law which includes handguns, SBS, SBR and assault weapons.
The way I'm reading the language, it ends transfers of stripped lowers, barreled actions and frames.
Tie this in with the bill they pulled that was going to prohibit any gunsmithing by anyone other than a licensed gunsmith and I believe that their end game is to prohibit the transfer of anything that is not a finished firearm. It was too easy for people to buy parts and assemble them into an otherwise prohibited configuration.

Haha so people will just buy a finished lower with a stock which is a rifle and then configure it however the hell they want it.

"weapon ... containing "
The first requirement is that we're talking about a  weapon.
A lower is not a weapon. It's a piece of metal that may become part of a weapon.
We're used to thinking of a lower as a firearm/weapon because of the ATF arbitrary definition.
That definition does not apply to ny law.

You guys could be right but  I'd bet a lot it doesn't go your way.
At least for now. 20 years from now is a different story.

I think what really pissed 'them' off was ARs configured as others and non-safe-compliant.

Shockwaves might not have been worth action on their own but got caught up.

An attack on lowers may well come but I don't think this is it.

One just needs to look at Kalifornia. As soon as people figured out a workaround for their a$$inine laws (ex. bullet button), the legislature stepped up and outlawed the workaround as well. New York is now on that path of playing whack-a-mole. Problem is it gets expensive for us to play and we win stupid prizes when the legislature passes more restrictions.

this seems to target the 80% lowers eg glocks etc.

something that is not yet acknowledged as a firearm.

id imagine whatever you have may be grandfathered anything new would be licensed.

or, is it more encompassing?

80% are being attacked in a different law.

This is for tac14s, shockwaves, ARs configured as other, etc

I strongly disagree with some others that this will affect stripped lowers.
Anything is possible with tyrants, though.

The overriding criteria is  "a weapon".
A stripped lower is not a weapon by common usage or existing NYS law.

Good luck with that interpretation
265.00 (3) provides the definition of "firearm" under state law.
Paragraph (f) adds the language I cut and pasted to the state definition of "firearm".
Considering that everything else under the "firearm" paragraph is stuff they're restricting...handguns, SBS, SBR, "assault weapons"....I dont see (f) as helping out the argument that lowers, barreled actions etc are not covered.

Interesting but wrong in my opinion. They've banned 80% frames which aren't even able to add fire control units and the like without work and are unregulated by the fed. Finished lowers are regulated by the fed and must be sold through an FFL. No way the state is going to say they aren't a firearm, and since they don't fall into the category of a handgun, rifle with at least a 16 inch barrel or a shotgun with an 18 inch barrel, the state is going to treat them as an "other."

Your interpretation leads to absurd consequences like I'm a criminal for changing stocks on a 22 rifle.

I'm not paranoid enough to believe that they deviously wrote vague language on purpose in order to enforce absurdities.

They intended to ban shockwaves and AR 'others' and that's what they'll enforce.

When they want to ban lowers they'll do it, not slide it through on crazy interpretations of something semi-related.

The currently proposed federal AWB has a line item to ban all AR receivers, period.

Did you read my edit?
Its pretty clear that a lower receiver fits that language:

"CONTAINING  ANY  COMPONENT THAT PROVIDES HOUSING OR A STRUCTURE
DESIGNED TO HOLD  OR  INTEGRATE  ANY  FIRE  CONTROL  COMPONENT"

We already know that the state wants to ban home builds.
They tried to ban any weapon builds by anyone other than a licensed gunsmith last year; it failed only because the language was too vague.
Hoping that those in Albany somehow are OK with people doing home builds that dont meet their SAFE Act limits is pure fantasy

It's not at all clear because you dropped out the most important word.
"A WEAPON containing"
That clearly indicates that the component in itself does not satisfy the definition.
If they started the definition at "Any component" you'd be right.

Previously they tried to ban finishing 80%ers, some people CHOSE TO INTERPRET their vagaries as banning all home gun work.

NY choosing to define a stripped lower as a semiautomatic rifle that can only be purchased with a license is fairly likely.

Regarding all gun receivers as criminal to possess in themselves but legal AFTER being completed into a rifle or shotgun is absurd , not what was intended and not what's going to happen.

They were not ok with people building ARs the fell through the holes in their law. They plugged the hole.

Your interpretation is not likely, because a stripped lower by itself is not semiautomatic. It has to be built up into that configuration. Whereas the stripped lower meets the language I cut and pasted. You hanging your hat on the use of the word "weapon" isn't going to fly in my opinion.

80% frames was a separate law. Not changing criminal possession of a firearm like this other definition does.

265 is about possessing dangerous weapons.
It's not about regulating acquisition of guns. Apparently they left that to the feds.

The state has always said that a compliant AR rifle or licensed AR pistol  is not a firearm.
That's not changing.
If I start with a legal rifle and pull it apart until I have an inert piece of metal with no moving parts, NOW I'm possessing a dangerous firearm?
If possession of a stripped lower is illegal then I'm still possessing it when it's attached to other stuff.
That would make all guns illegal because they have receivers that are defined as illegal items.

Unlike the feds NY never had an official category for 'other'.
A 14" shotgun was never accepted as intended to be legal.
An AR that escaped regulation by safe was clearly never intended to be legal.
Only an]unintentional, implicit hole in the specifics of the categories made prosecution of 'others' problematic.

So why has a stripped lower been very commonly accepted as legal to possess in the past?
Because it fell into other? No, because they never even acknowledged other existed.
Because it was a rifle? No, because that is in-determinant.

Because it;s not a weapon yet.
Take the same lower. put on a rifle upper and it's fine.
Put on a pistol upper and it's an illegal firearm.
Yes, ATF says the lower is a firearm/weapon but that's separate law.

The technical argument is only 49%.

We probably agree we're dealing with rotten incompetents who will interpret what they want how they want anyway.

However, their MO lately has been to pass whatever they want and brag about it.

This bill eliminated others that fell through the illegal possession and safe laws.
They did that and they're bragging about it.

The idea that they ALSO deviously included a vague ban on all lowers and are pretending they didn't seems very weak.

If they were ready to ban lowers they'd do it and brag about it.

I definitely don't argue it's not on the agenda.

The semi auto rifle ban? That's just new sales.

This "others" ban - Nope...no grandfathering. If you have an other, it's a felony soon. Nice right?

Don't worry...unless Thomas writes an absolute scathing decision in the NYSRPA case, NY will ban all semi auto guns without grandfathering soon too. I'd give it 5 years. Unless SCOTUS gives NY an absolute smacking. Which is very unlikely as they don't like to make waves.
