Assault weapon means:
http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=8&f=9&t=307707 Any of the weapons, or functioning frames or receivers of such weapons, or copies or duplicates of such weapons, in any caliber, known as: Norinco, Polytech, and Mitchell Avtomat Kalashnikovs (AK-47’s); Action Arms IMI (Israeli Military Industries) Uzi and Galil; Beretta AR-70 (SC-70); Colt AR-15; Fabrique Nationale FAL, LAR, and FNC; SWD M-10, M-11, M 11/9, M-12; Steyr AUG; INTRATEC TEC-9, TEC-DC9 and TEC-22; Revolving cylinder shotguns such as (or similar to) the Street Sweeper or Striker 12 What this list means is post-ban Colt rifles with an “AR-15” roll mark are not legal. Note: If the rifle is marked “Sporter” instead of “AR-15,” it is legal despite the fact it is the same machine. Again, pre-bans are exempt. |

Colt LE6920 Law Enforcement OK. I think the 6940 has the same lower.

Pre-Bans are OK to have the evil features though. I would just say get a Match Target...I have one and it's awesome...same as a 6920 but ban compliant. Or get a 6920 and have it neutered. |

The NY BAN is based on the now DEFUNCT Federal AWB. If I am wrong someone please correct me, but I believe that since the passage of the NY Ban Law , there has been No NY Court Decision on any issues arising from the Ban nor has there been any Legal Opinion issued by the NY Attorney Generals office. So the true answer would be No one knows. |

We are relying on the fact that the NY AWB exactly mirrors the Federal AWB...which allows post-ban weapons...so we are good to go...otherwise, every gun store, FFL, and arfcommer from NY has been a felon since 1994 for transferring illegal AWs or posessing illegal AWs. But that is not the case. |

Quoted: So, basically the Sporter and Match Target? AFAIK all Colt "Sporter" "Sporter II" marked rifles are preban and exempt from the NYS AWB in any configuration. All post ban civilian rifles from Colt are legal to possess in NYS. http://biggerhammer.net/ar15/ http://www.coltsmfg.com/products-c6-q9-Colt_Rifles.aspx Unless you have to have a Colt there are many other choices for a NY postban compliant rifle. Pete in NH who is a ARFCOM dealer can fix you up with a RRA or Stag rifle. http://www.ar15sales.com/ |

I am pretty sure if it says "Colt AR-15" it is BANNED unless it is pre-ban. In actuality, all "Colt AR-15" guns are pre-ban though right? They changed the rollmarks after the ban was implimented right? But hypothetically, if it has a banned roll mark, it is no good, unless it is pre-ban. |

I believe the 6721 and 6520 are both roll marked AR-15, and as such would still be illegal even if neutered. If you want the AR-15 roll mark, it must be a pre-ban.

I have the Colt MT6400C. It is basically a 6920 with a pinned comp, no bayo lug, and fixed stock. The rollmark IMHO is one of the best out there, "M4 CARBINE". There are a few versions on this page...

The LEO Colt 6721 is not mine and the pics were found on the Internet by googling "Colt 6721". http://www.ar15.com/archive/topic.html?b=8&f=9&t=343902 Quoted: It says AR-15A3 not AR-15, the rollmark bullshit has been interpreted by NYSP as a STRICT INTERPRETATION which means the rollmark must be exact. That being said there are anti DA's and Administrators who see blood in the water and are not above telling the NYSP to fuck off. |

You'll beat the rap but I guarantte you you won't beat the ride. Ask the RIT student that was arrested, held on 15K bail and spent the W/E in the MC county jail for two NYS compliant rifles. When all was said and done he probably spent $10K-$15K in legal fees and was expelled from RIT a few weeks prior to graduation where he was to receive a degree in engineering. He also has a lifetime arrest record in NYS for 2 violent felonies and 1 misdemeanor count. AFAIK the MCSD and prosecutor pursued the charges even after the NYSP GIU told them the rifles complied with current state law were legal to possess in NYS. When 762DM says something you'd be wise to listen to him. YMMV |

I think my best bet will be to just avoid a Colt altogether.
I'm just going to buy a BCM lower for my BCM upper and call it a day... |

Quoted: Was this for LE6920s? I ask because these rifles do say LE only, but do not have an AR-15 rollmark. Nope. The RIT student was a NJ resident when he purchased both rifles (The NJ AWB is stricter than NY). Both rifles were postban compliant, no LE markings or AR-15 roll marks and the only AW feature was the pistol grip. The MC grand jury returned a no bill on the two felony counts and one misdemeanor count and all charges were dropped. |

Like you said the LE/MIL markings are meaningless since the Federal AWB expired in 2004. It shouldn't be a problem as long as the rifle is postban compliant based on features. The rifle could be marked "Restricted to Easter Bunny's" and have the same meaning. |
