In addition to the laundry list of anti-gun bills introduced in the New York State Legislature last week, several more anti-gun bills have been introduced in Albany. 

 

  • Assembly Bill 2881, sponsored by State Assemblyman David Koon (D-135), bans the possession and use of "frangible" ammunition;
  • Assembly Bill 2884, sponsored by State Assemblyman David Koon (D-135), would outlaw gun shows on public property;
  • Assembly Bill 2885, sponsored by State Assemblyman David Koon (D-135), would allow the State Police to ban any firearm they deem "unsafe" at any time;
  • Assembly Bill 3211, sponsored by State Assemblywoman Patricia Eddington (D-3), would prohibit the sale use or possession of .50 caliber firearms;
  • Assembly Bill 3344, sponsored by State Assemblyman Clifford Crouch (R-107), provides for banning certain "dangerous" firearms;
  • Assembly Bill 3477, sponsored by State Assemblyman Karim Camara (D-43), expands the ballistic imaging program to include additional firearms;
  • Assembly Bill 3510, sponsored by State Assemblyman Michael Gianaris (D-36), would prohibit concealed vehicular compartments, barring SUV's or autos without trunks, from installing safes or compartments in which to secure firearms; and,
  • Assembly Bill 3561, sponsored by State Assemblyman N. Nick Perry (D-58), would require pistol licensees to obtain liability insurance.

"bans the possession and use of "frangible" ammunition;"

All of this is really a bunch of completely idiotic totalitarian bullshit, but this one is just stands out to me. Why ban "frangible" ammo(I'm assuming this is ammo that fragments)? That's literally the safest ammo there is. It doesn't pass through walls or even people, accidentally hitting third parties. It's even safe to use on airplanes. Yet another example of these power-mad airbrain politicians regulating something they haven't a clue about.

These idiots probably think it’s designed just for criminals to avoid an imaging match with the rifling.

Expect to see scores of these types of bills popping up all across the country now that the anti-gunners are running it. Just wait until the next school shooting and Congress will gladly join in the act.

No, frangible ammo doesn’t mean stuff that fragments.

Frangibles are basically metal dust glued together into a bullet. When it hits something solid it doesn’t fragment, it disintegrates.

It’s great for anything close range or where you don’t want overpenetration/ricochets like taking out door locks, and of course self-defense, which is the reason they want it outlawed. Ban any tool that makes it easier or safer to defend yourself from thugs on the street or your family from break-ins...

Cuomo played both sides against the middle, i.e. he pandered to ACORN, NACA, etc. as well as bankers, Wall Street, etc.

Leftist city boys want to impose their will on everyone else; they propose this cr*p and then preen for the TV and newspapers so their Leftist, urban constituents will vote for them again next time around.

Pure ambition, and to h*ll with honesty, justice, American tradition, and the the Constitution. Legislators of the “Me Generation.” Shameful.

Can anyone here untangle that “rebuttable presumption”paragraph starting at line 18?

It sounds like you are guilty until you can prove yourself innocent about hidden compartments with any evidence of contraband.

iirc, NY state (city?) law says weapons must be stored unloaded, in a locked container, separately from ammo.

So if you have a registered firearm, and if you own a vehicle without a trunk, if you bolt a gunvault or even a lockable toolbox to the interior of your vehicle, and if you get stopped on the way to the range, you have to go to court and stand trial to prove you were legally carrying in the locked, bolted down compartment?

The question is if the compartment is hidden or it is obvious. The cops have cameras. A defense lawyer can demand that the jury can inspect the vehicle. I'm not a lawyer, but it strikes me as a presumption of guilt for any hidden compartment with evidence of contraband.
