As far as I know, it is still ten rounds.

As far as I know, it is still ten rounds, unless it is a pre-ban magazine.

Any mag over 10 rounds is illegal pre ban or not. But it would be very hard for you to find some one who cares.

Thank you for that clarification. Since I do travel to NY from time to time, that will be helpful for me....

False. Pre-ban mags are legal.
From NYS Penal Code 265.00 section 23
23. "Large capacity ammunition feeding device" means a magazine, belt, drum, feed strip, or similar device, manufactured after September thirteenth, nineteen hundred ninety-four, that has a capacity of, or that can be readily restored or converted to accept, more than ten rounds of ammunition; provided, however, that such term does not include an attached tubular device designed to accept, and capable of operating only with, .22 caliber rimfire ammunition."
