I live just across the border from NY State, and have hunted there a few times but not in about 5 years.  I'm looking into a hunt there next year and have come across the issue of pistol grips.  I've read what I can find an it seems our Rem 870 with fixed stock pistol grip is OK, but I'm not clear on whether a fixed stock pistol grip SA-20 is legal or not.  Can anyone confirm if a typical semi-auto "turkey gun" is legal in NY?

Bud that law is so confusing I know gun shops that won't answer that question. I would HIGHLY suggest calling the DEC and asking them. Thumbhole stocks are another confusing one.

All of those features are ok if the gun is a pump gun. Go figure.
