GUNSMITH OR A DEALER IN FIREARMS pursuant to section 400.00 of this
chapter and, knowing it is a ghost gun, such person possesses a ghost
gun, provided that a person shall not be guilty under this subdivision
when he or she (a) voluntarily surrenders such ghost gun to any law
enforcement official designated pursuant to subparagraph (f) of para-
graph one of subdivision (a) of section 265.20 of this article; or (b)
for a period of six months after the effective date of this section
