From what I read, the bolt and firing pin have to stamp the cartridge, not the chamber, so swapping a barrel wouldn't effect it.
They put a date to impose it, but then throw in "or until someone says they can manage to do it", just like CA.
Damn I hoped this would never see the light of day.... Time to make some phone calls!

shall we get the law passed, before we all panic?

It's amazing to me that the Legislature is more concerned with controlling law abiding citizens than even attempting to control criminals

That's exactly what gun control has always been about, controlling the people that follow the laws.

Has anyone read the bill enough to know if they addressed what would happened if you disabled the microstamping feature of your new future weapon

From the link above:

Section 4 of the bill amends subdivision 6 of section 265.10 of the
penal law to clarify that the existing class D felony offense of
defacing a firearm includes the defacement of a micros tamping
component or mechanism of a semiautomatic pistol. This section also
creates a new class A misdemeanor offense when a dealer in firearms
sells, offers for sale, exchanges, gives, transfers or delivers a
semiautomatic pistol knowing that the micros tamping component or
mechanism of such pistol has been defaced. Section 6 expressly
excludes from defacing a semiautomatic pistol (1) modifications made
to such pistol to render it microstamp-ready, or (2) replacing a
firing pin of a micro-stamp ready semiautomatic pistol when the pin is
damaged or in need of replacement for the safe use of the pistol, or
replacing such pin for a legitimate sporting purpose.

Same as if you grind the serial number off of the receiver.
I wonder how they are going to deal with it when the microstamp wears off from use... is that a felony also?
