TL;DR

New York Attorney General Letitia James has filed a lawsuit against Mean Arms, a Georgia-based company, for selling a device that allowed the Buffalo killer to replace magazines in his AR-15 with ease. The device, called an MA lock, is marketed as locking a magazine onto a firearm, making it compliant with New York law.
