Bill summary
Official digest is not on this card.
Now vs if chaptered
NOW: not law; no GBL Art. 39-DDDDD private right of action. IF CHAPTERED: civil PRA against specified AWB / machine-gun / ghost-gun / unfinished-frame violations; still not a Penal Law street count.
Defender utility
NY PDs: this is a pending manufacturer/seller civil PRA, not a new Penal Law possessory charge. Do not plead it as a client count. Makers and dealers tracking AWB / PMF / unfinished-frame exposure if chaptered. Assembly twin A 07810. Portable analogue to federal HB 544 ghost-gun PRA already on the landscape. Not a California charge.
Who this is for. Makers/dealers and NY PDs tracking a pending AWB/PMF civil PRA — not a client possessory charge; not present law.
Exemptions (draft)
If chaptered: as drafted in GBL Art. 39-DDDDD; confirm defendant class (manufacturer/seller vs possessor) before treating a client as a target.
Penalties (if chaptered)
Pending civil PRA, not a criminal count on the face of the print. Not present law.
