New York S00399 makes it illegal for certain persons to possess or sell a pistol converter or a converted pistol.

New York S00399 amends the penal law to make it illegal for certain persons to possess or sell a pistol converter or a converted pistol. The bill defines a "convertible pistol" as any semi-automatic pistol with a cruciform trigger bar that can be readily altered by hand or with common household tools to be converted into a machine-gun by the installation or attachment of a pistol converter. The superintendent of the state police is directed to publish a list of pistols that the superintendent has determined to be convertible pistols.
