If the AR has a permanently affixed brake then that should be legal under NY state law

What can you permanently affix to a barrel in NY legally? Can you put a suppressor or flash hider. I know that ailencers are out of the question, obviously. I have a naked end on my barrel and I wonder what my options are.

If your gun is a post ban you cannot attach a flash suppressor to it in NY.
There are fake flash suppressors you can attach, Fulton Armory has one called "The look" it doesn't do anything, well except arguably protect the crown of the barrel if you drop the rifle. I guess Cavalry Arms' "CavComp" is supposed to have good reputation for looking okay and not being terribly loud for a compensator, however it is not a flash suppressor. |

Moronic NY laws.
 But if I replace the pistol grip with a PC stock it makes flash suppressors function differently and OK.

If you are going to attach a brake I would make sure it was approved by the ATF as a "postban compliant" brake. Is the Troy brake ATF approved? If it is covering a threaded barrel it must be welded or silver soldered on otherwise a brake can be pinned on.
ETA: I thought there was more then one model a Troy brake. The only one I could find is a flash suppressor and would be illegal to install it on a postban rifle. Bushmaster has ATF approved brakes. www.bushmaster.com/shopping/brakes/default.asp |

Troy make a couple different models and one is NY compliant it is clasified by the ATF as a compensator and does not hide flash. I have a rifle with one on it and looks good. They should be available soon.
