But, I can tell you this, the only colts you can have in NY are one made Pre-ban. if they are not, I wouldn't take the chance on buying one. God forbid the ATF shows up at your door and want to see your armory. next thing you know you're in the federal pound you in the ass penitentiary. also, if it is pre-ban colt, you can't change anything on it, like if it had a A2 stock and you added a nice new Magpul ACS, it would be in violation. trust me, my lawyer & I really looked into this. the sad thing is, the law only hurts the people who follow it. I'm sure the gang bangers aren't concerned if they got a pre-ban version or not. I bought my SR-15 and had to have it made NY compliant before it shipped to my uncle, and that was told to me right from the police departments mouth.
