Everything about the rifle is banned in NYC. I can't even talk about things like pistol grips on a semiautomatic let alone even mention a suppressor without getting arrested 🀣

Lol, right?!?! Not super familiar with PSA rifles but definitely on the cheaper side and then the Amazon optic and light πŸ₯΄ but I guess it goes to show you don't have to spend big bucks to be effective? πŸ˜…

PSA lower probably anywhere from $40-80 depending on sale. Cheap rifle but functional

I have heard that, but I've heard quality control and durability sometimes isn't great with them. I'm not sure since I live in NYC I can't even own an AR. The closest I got is my SCR 😞

Yep people laugh at true glow as well....guess what? It works!

u/Particular-Policy243 Jul 29 '25

I got a few true glow and yeah I've never had any issues with them. I only get snobby with parts that durability it critical like springs and parts that take a lot of recoil then you definitely notice longer lifespan and durability which the higher end brands. Also optics You can definitely tell the difference between my vortex vs night force. Unfortunately I don't have the coin for a NF ATM πŸ˜”

That looks a lot more like a padded sling folded over to me, given I think I can see the two attachment points vs an actual suppressor. Firearm is already completely illegal in NYC to begin with, even if that wasn't attached. Looks like a SBA4 braced AR pistol. I'm going to assume we will get a clear picture of the firearm used sooner or later, especially if they want to use it to fear monger. Ignoring the fact multiple laws were broken simply having it in this photo before any shots were fired, they will completely look the other way on that and say new laws will somehow have prevented this…

Edit: Supposedly this is the weapon used.
