Here's an option, but you will have to have the Flash Hider removed prior to taking purchase:

Rock River Arms: AR1238X

Mid Length A2 Handguard – Black / Green
Standard Grip – Black/Green
A2 ButtStock – Black Green
Personally I would op for a folding front site, but it is more money.
Standard Safety Selector – I don’t believe you were a Lefty.
Chrome Moly 1:9 Standard Barrel. You could upgrade to the 1:8 Stainless Steel .223 Wylde if you were so inclined.
With this one, you would have to get the Flash Hider removed, most likely by the store that imports the weapon behind enemy lines to you.


The same would hold true for DPMS as they have a couple of models that are similar in configuration.

How would you be able to do that before purchse? The store I pick it up at?

I would assume the FFL's in your area are used to this procedure by now.

If you can only have so many criteria met on units to be sold in the State, they would have to either 1) Have the ability to order you a Conn Compliant version from their manufacturing connection or 2) Remove the offending product from the weapon when it hits their shop to legally be sold by them, to you....

Check with your local dealer -

YW JD - I didn't know about having to be AWB compliant either until RRA told me NY retained much of the pre-ban BS also. What I don't understand is how I was able to legally purchase my Yugo SKS with grenade launcher & bayonet?! I hope some day I don't find out the hard way that the gunshop that sold them was in violation of the law...that would REALLY suck! As far as Lupo goes, I feel sorry for him - I had a friend in Ct. that had to turn in his AR-15 in 1994. I don't know if I could do that - I think I would move first!

Or stage a break in...

Is it considered C&R? (The laws are mortally screwed up and make no sense....)

Lupo, I went through a company called Legal Transfers in New Hampshire to get my upper. NY requires the muzzle break is silver-soldered and pinned and the bayonet lug is ground down. I think Legal Transfers charged me $10 extra for that work. You might find they can provide you with some (or all) of what you need. No connection to them -- just a satisfied customer. Check out the EE on ar15.com for details.

Thanks man, I will give that a look into!

I don't think so - I always thought C&R guns were much older - the SKS is a mod.59/66 which I believe means 1959-1966 - too new to b considered C&R.

C&R is whatever the ATF decides it is. They can declare any firearm C&R.
