Atlpresa Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 (edited) Can you ship a Benelli M4 butt stock with a pistol grip to New York? Edited February 14, 2013 by Atlpresa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsn124 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 I'm sure you're looking for a concise yes or no which I can't give but you might check out http://www.governor.ny.gov/2013/gun-reforms-faq. If you look up information on banned weapons and features it explicitly mentions the M2-tactical as an assault weapon requiring registration. Yet no mention of the M4. Further, "banned features" for shotguns include those that are semi-automatic and one or more of the following: Folding or Telescoping Stock Thumbhole Stock Second handgrip or protruding grip that can be held by a non-shooting hand Fixed magazine capacity in excess of seven (7) rounds An ability to accept a detachable magazine From the list of features it would appear that a fixed stock with a pistol grip is not a feature that would categorize it as an assault weapon. But then again the M2 is categorized as an assault weapon? I didn't read into the details of the SAFE act but I'm guessing the act gives NY law enforcement the latitude to include whatever firearms they want to include at any point in time even if it is not explicitly listed as long as it looks "military" enough. If it were me I wouldn't ship it to NY state but that's me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadDad Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Better idea may be to have the person you are selling the stock to move out of the state of NY... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTrooper Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 There's not a damn thing the Governor and/or State of NY can do about an individual selling and shipping a perfectly-legal-where-you-live pistol grip stock, magazine, etc to someone in their state. The responsibility lies entirely with the buyer. That said, I probably wouldn't do it because I wouldn't want to feel any responsibility for someone else's possible arrest.

daniel333 Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 The pistol rip is no longer an evil feature with the new law. It is now classified as having a sporting purpose, not evil. It is 100% legal in NY. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
