    sadly other than the date of manufacture, nothing... Unlike the Federal AWB, the NYS AWB did not have an expiration. So we have to have preban receivers if we want things like collapsible stocks, flash hiders and bayonet lugs. We also have to have preban magazines if we want greater than 10 rounds. Speaking of magazines, you are allowed to have a pre-ban magazine in a post ban gun. Some people may not think that is true but it is...

    The things that may or may not be true are the things a man needs to believe in the most. People are good; honor, courage, virtue mean everything; power and money mean nothing; good always triumphs over evil; true love never dies. A man should believe in those things, because worth they believing in.

    What I meant was, to the OP what part of NYS are you in. The AWB does apply to all of NYS with the exception of NYC which has its own set of rules (stricter)

    Pretty messed up huh. Don't even get me started on price gouging for preban stuff. Gun shops around here try to sell preban magazines for $25-$35... I understand capitalism but outside of NY brand new mags go for what, $12-$15?
