In NY you are illegal if you have two of these, which means you can only have one.  A pistol grip on a AR 15 is all you can have.  No folding stock or no bayonet lug.  Take a look at the regulations below.

NYS "Assault Rifle" law

BUY PREBAN.  IVE GOT BOTH.  ONE GOOD THING ABOUT NY IS WE CAN HAVE PREBAN HIGH CAP MAGS AND USE THEM IN BOTH.

NO FLASH HIDER IN NY, NO LUG.  NO FOLDING STOCK ON POST BAN.  ALL THESE THINGS CAN BE ON A PREBAN.

That's funny.  One of the guys at the Rochester Gander Mountain told me that the GSG-5 was completely illegal in New York state. I didn't bother to argue with him.

My read on the assault weapons laws in NYS is that rimfire weapons are NOT exempt.

They are, however, treated differently under Rochester's dumbass ban.

You don't care about the grenade launcher or bayonet lug for a GSG.

There's a threaded barrel, which I don't believe the GSG comes with, so again, you're okay.

That leaves a pistol grip and a telescoping stock.  The GSG does have a pistol grip.  As it's based on an airsoft MP-5, I guess, you could add a telescoping stock to it.  At that point, it would be illegal.  With a fixed stock (of any length, provided the OAL and barrel length are sufficient), you're fine.

IANAL, YMMV, contact the state police for more reliable data.

Nothing in the law will let you use a magazine that can hold 11 or more rounds on the GSG, since there are no pre-94 mags available for it, to my knowledge.

There is a provision in the law that permits greater than 10 rimfire rounds in an attached tubular magazine, but that's not what the GSG uses.

So, ten round mags, don't put a telescoping stock on, and don't shorten or thread the barrel.

He probably meant illegal to buy from an online retailer and have it shipped, as it comes with a 'hicap' mag. I think the mag has to be absent or disassembled to have one shipped to the state.

Basicly bone stock is about it.You can't add anything else evil to it.You can mount a bipod as they don't count as an evil feature.

Or do what I did and order a GSG-5 with a 10 round mag.  No, he meant it was illegal period.  Than he tried to sell me one of his .22LR's.

Call (dont email) look up the non emergency number and call the state police, and ask the question there.  They should be able to help you.  If you don't believe your local gun dealer, your not going to beleve us!

The GSG-5 comes with  (1) a pistol grip and (2)the ability to accept High capacity detachable magazines...this is the only two "evil" features you are allowed in NYS.
22cal semi auto rifles that accept detachable magazines fall under the NYS AWB.
