The real answer is that it might....but that it hasn't yet been hashed out in the court system. A lot of the definitions weren't included in the original law so they're open to judicial interpretation. For instance, the wording in the law says that collapsible stocks are among the list of "evil" features. But what about the magpul PRS. This stock is adjustable via a threaded insert. Does that count as collapsible? Who knows for sure, it hasn't been decided by the courts.
Most people seem to agree that pinning the stock at a length and then epoxying over the pin is the safest way to be in compliance but even then who's to say the court won't decide that the stock is still technically collapsible? (thousands of NY gun owners would be in violation as well as dozens of gun shops if they made such a decision but that doesn't mean it wouldn't happen). Some people feel that pinning with a removable pin is acceptable as long as it requires a tool to do it. After all, any stock can be removed and replaced with a longer or shorter one if you have the right tool(s). I happen to fall into this category even though I have a fixed A2 stock on mine. Some people even pin with a wing nut so that it can be changed without tools. This option is not worth the risk in my opinion.
Bottom line, read the rules yourself and go with what you're comfortable with. Know the wording of the statute and be prepared to defend your choice with logic and a clear understanding of the law to a LEO if necessary (many of whom in fact don't know the law very well if at all) but don't draw attention to compliance issues if they don't come up on their own.
