Perfectly fine.
It would no longer be semi auto and therefore not be controlled by the AWB. But then you have a gun that looks cool but can't function as an actual weapon anymore. |

Well, it would function as a weapon, just as a straight pull bolt action.... Its a decent work around, and as it no longer semi auto, I would have a bayo lug, collapsible shoulder thing that goes up, flash hider, detachable 10/30 mag, every damned "evil" feature available, and never shoot it without the bayonet detached....its a nice big FU to Cuomo, and any pro SAFE LEO's who might hassle you... |

But you'll have to be arrested and have the police lab boys test the rifle in order to prove it's not semi auto.
Myself, I'd be worried about "Yes, at that moment the rifle was broken and not firing correctly, but with a simple fix it was made semi automatic again." Meaning to risk my freedom, I'd want something a bit more permanent than just a misaligned gas block or missing gas tube. |

If you remove the gas tube, and blank off the port by threading, putting in a screw, and adding some JB Weld or weld over it, I think you'd be beyond safe (if you'll pardon the pun...), or get a barrel with no port drilled. I have always said, you need someone with sparkly clean record, and set for money, and nothing better to do...make the above mods, troll for a JBT, get arrested, and then sue the living shit out of everyone. Yeah, they'd drag it out a long time, but ultimately that case has got to be a winner... |

Has anyone on here actually tried this?
I'm just wondering if the inertia or blowback alone would at least partially cycle or unlock the bolt??? If that's the case, then an unfriendly NYSP or ATF lab tech could just say it's still semi automatic, just a malfunctioning semi... Just wondering, since a lot of people have discussed this option, but no one has ever posted an AAR of doing it. |

I've seen someone shooting one with no operating issues.I believe he welded over the gasport as described

The rifle functions perfectly as a single shot side charging AR 15. I blocked the gas port with a solid piece of rod (same size as the gas tube) that is held in place with a roll pin, just like the gas tube. |
