Dumb question but is the sig 365 specter comp legal in NYS?

[Saltwater60]

The compensator is not on the list of safe act assault weapons BS but I see a lot of places listing shipping restrictions even with the 10 round mags. At that is it worth it? I do t care for the gay gold crap added like the battle and trigger but I think the compensator honestly and the grip looks really nice. Thoughts?

Sigs 365 Spector comp does not use a threaded barrel the compensator is machined in the slide. So it would be legal.

Top two barrels legal in the PRNY, bottom not legal in the PRNY.



If the barrel is threaded then no.

(c) a semiautomatic pistol that has an ability to accept a detachable
magazine and has at least one of the following characteristics:
(i) a folding or telescoping stock;
(ii) a thumbhole stock;
(iii) a second handgrip or a protruding grip that can be held by the
non-trigger hand;
(iv) capacity to accept an ammunition magazine that attaches to the
pistol outside of the pistol grip;
(v) a threaded barrel capable of accepting a barrel extender, flash
suppressor, forward handgrip, or silencer;
(vi) a shroud that is attached to, or partially or completely
encircles, the barrel and that permits the shooter to hold the firearm
with the non-trigger hand without being burned;
(vii) a manufactured weight of fifty ounces or more when the pistol is
unloaded;

Just buy a comped slide and barrel and swap it out on one of your existing 365 variants. Done. No BGC required.

That’s my understanding as well. Thanks for the confirmation.

I thought about this but my son still needs a pistol so a BC will need to be done. I may do this anyway because the soectre is $1100 and I’m not sure it’s worth it. I do t care about the gold painted crap.

Gold crap on guns is so stereotypically gawdy. It’s like a giant rear spoiler on a Geo Metro. I know TiN is functional, but it just looks sooooo bad to me.

It is and I don’t hate it but I’d preferred it all black, or even a blue. It certainly doesn’t draw me to the gun. What I need to figure out is if I’m better off buying a regular 365 and getting the comped slide or buying the spectre. I have to see what the dollars are on it but like I said my son needs a gun anyway so I’m buying a gun and a comped slide then. I don’t think the sprectre has any other upgrades so to speak of but I have to look into it. Been busy and sick so I haven’t.

I would be aware if you get it that you might be volunteering for a legal hassle. If it looks like it might have a device that usually requires or has a threaded barrel, you might be stopped for it if seen.

Good thoughts and thanks for this but the only time it would be coming out is in a self defense situation or on private property so that’s not likely to happen. Also it’s interested in the slide so I don’t think it will be a big issue.

That would give him standing. LoL

Standing for what . Stopped for reasonable suspicion because it looks like an illegal device? If he got arrested maybe it could be standing for …. It would be technically a legal device so it wouldn’t become a 2A case

I guess we never know in NYS but seemingly you’re correct.

You missed the sarcasm.
