Put a BSA 4x30 scope on my SKS. And while this is up i might as well ask, What do i have to do to make this NYS compliant ? I also have the 20rd tapco Mag. Im pretty sure that has to be pinned to only hold 5 rounds though. ![http://i42.tinypic.com/qn4p3p.jpg](http://i42.tinypic.com/qn4p3p.jpg) ---

And while this is up i might as well ask, What do i have to do to make this NYS compliant ? I also have the 20rd tapco Mag. Im pretty sure that has to be pinned to only hold 5 rounds though. Mag needs to be pinned to hold 10rds. Stock has to be pinned. Bayonet lug must be ground off. I am not 100% sure, but I believe converting to the Tapco stock means the whole rifle needs to be 922r compliant (which is a federal law, not just NYS). For 922r compliance, there needs to be 10 or less imported parts on the rifle out of a list of 14 that the SKS has on the list. Because you added a pistol grip, but it is US made, it kinda just cancels that one out. Here’s a list of the other 14 parts: 1. ``` Receiver ``` 2. ``` Barrel ``` 3. ``` Bolt ``` 4. ``` Bolt carrier ``` 5. ``` Gas piston ``` 6. ``` Trigger housing ``` 7. ``` Trigger ``` 8. ``` Hammer ``` 9. ``` Sear ``` 10. Disconnector 11. Stock - You have this, so mark that off the list. 12. Handguard - You have this, so mark that off the list. 13. Magazine body - You have this, so mark that off the list. 14. Follower - You have this, so mark that off the list. So as long as your mag is pinned to 10 rds, and your stock pinned in w/e position you want, and a bayo lug ground off if you have one, you are 100% good to go. The Tapco stock/mag set included all the 922r compliance stuff you needed, so no worries there. Just be careful because the second you put a magazine that’ll work but is not 100% made in the USA, the rifle is in violation of 922r. Blame Clinton for that one. ---

As soon as i get home in May i have to get the stock pinned and the Mag pinned and the bayo lug ground off. To be perfectly safe, I’d have the rifle disassembled before you make the trip so the stock and receiver are separate, and most definitely get the mag pinned to 10rds before you leave. It’d effing suck if for some reason you got pulled over shortly after crossing into NY and they search your car and find the mag, then proceed to whip out their night sticks and fuck you with the long dick of the law. ---
