Fixed mag AR: Does the comp have to be pinned/welded?

[WARFAB]

No. If it's a fixed magazine it can have any evil feature you want.

Does this mean you'll be looking to get some range time in the not so distant future?

Hopefully! Barrel is on, I just need to get the gas tube and block sorted out so I can get the free float buttoned up and I'll be ready. Oh, and find the glass I had planned to put on it.

[WARFAB]

Plenty of GCL members who could get you into the rifle range when you're ready.

Hey Camper, I have a brandy new Nikon M223 that I don't need. It's the 2-8x32 BDC 600 and comes with the Nikon mount. Let me know if it fits your requirements and I'll let it go at a right price

Thank you. I do have glass for it, I just don't remember what I did with it when I packed to try to sell our house/move. It's around somewhere! Lol

separate of safe act, i thought any comp needs to be permanent so that a suppressor couldn't be put on? same goes for hand guns, bolt actions, etc. am I not correct?

I can't remember what's SAFE and what's the federal/ATF/NFA anymore. It's an 18" barrel, so that part is ok.

I could be completely wrong on this, but I always thought that it only had to be permanently attached if the muzzle device was being used to bring total barrel length up to the required minimum of 16". So using a 14.5" barrel with a 1.5" comp would require pin and weld for NFA compliance, but a barrel that is 16" or up can be left as is.

yeah, you are right. my memory was incorrect. I looked it up again and couldn't find what I was thinking of.
it's just an evil feature in the safe act, which you don't need to concern yourself with when you are fixed mag camper.

also fyi, the safe act doesn't allow a threaded barrel on pistols . (per 265.00 22C.v)

[WARFAB]

It's a bit confusing. I was a little surprised when my father brought home his Ruger precision rifle with a threaded barrel because I thought that wasn't allowed in New Yorkistan.

[Meketrefe]

if the barrel is below 16" a permanent extension is needed unless one can legaly operate a SBR configuration or has a pistol license of it but then no stock allowed w/o SBR license.
The permanent method is not clear but normally it means pin and welded with threads or simply press fit with blind pins.
In any case is not something easily reversible by unscrewing or torqueing down that extension. I will require tools and/or machinery.

In NYS a compliant rifle must not have an open threaded muzzle or attachment if it is auto loading and has a detachable mag. In this case a thread cap or sleeve needs to be pinned
or welded. also muzzle device is not allowed even in the absence of threads like press fitted. Ported barrels seem to be ok.

Bolt actions, lever actions, pump actions, lever release, break open actions are all excluded from the threads or pistol grip cosmetic limitations since they are not classified by NYS as so called assault guns. Same with autoloaders that do not have a detachable magazine, they are excluded from the AW BS classification.
