Bill summary
Official digest is not on this card.
Now vs if chaptered
NOW: referred to Codes; 2013 one-feature test still live. IF chaptered: rifle AWB requires pistol grip plus another feature; muzzle brake and barrel shroud drop as standalone features.
Defender utility
NY PDs on SAFE Act feature-test calendars: live law still uses the one-feature test including pistol grip, muzzle brake, and shroud. If this chapters, a pistol-grip-only rifle and a brake/shroud-only pistol drop out. Until then, plead the live 2013 definition. Portable AWB analogue — not a California charge.
Who this is for. NY PDs on assault-weapon feature-test calendars — pending definition rewrite, not present law; not a California charge.
