It requires owners to register an estimated 1 million guns previously not classified as assault weapons by April 15, 2014, though law enforcement officials acknowledge they don't know exactly how many such guns New Yorkers have.

The assault weapon definition also applies to some shotguns and handguns .....

Devils like Cuomo do not consider ‘banning and regulating’ to be infringing? ... No, they know what they’re doing is unConstitutional but they also know why the pirate Roberts was placed ont he court with Kagan and Sotomayor.

Gee are the criminals, illegal aliens, terrorists and mentally ill people having these weapons registering them or is it just law abiding citizens who legally purchased these firearms?

Message to New Yorkers getting ready to register theri guns

DON'T DO IT

NY has a history of using registration lists for confiscation lists later.

Makes me glad I live in a free state, but it makes me sad that this is happening in America.

I heard John Lott on local radio here in MI the other day....

He noted in Mass, gun ownership has fallen to 1/8th of what it was via all the laws in the Peoples Socialist Republik, because people got tired of the hassle and gave-up.

I'd love to see the real numbers on that, i.e. did people go underground with their ownership, or did they leave the State

It could be one reason Mass is so Blue, any Conservative with a brain left...

I could be coming to NY as well, this could be the last straw for many, to sell and get the Hell out of that Socialist Cesspool..

Lots of unfortunate boating accidents happening right now around Lake George, I suppose.

I would bury mine in cosmoline before I registered it.

I have lost all my guns anyway in a boating accident, the boat turned turtle and I lost every gun I have in 100 feet of murky swamp water.

Its awful.

Read the new definition of ‘assault weapon’. It is so broad.

If I am any more cynical, I'd say Cuomo wanted to drive a lot of regular law abiding New Yorkers to not comply.

One notes that the Ruger line of 10/22 .22LR rifles has a telescopic sight and a detachable magazine, making it an Assault Weapon. Sorry, kids.

Message to Democrats/Socialists/Marxists and other goverment boot lickers:

JUST DO IT!

Become a part of NY history by registering your guns and have them confiscated later.

I would never live in NY, but if I did, I would move out of the state before the required registration date.

Bye, Bye, Bye. Fascists.

Hello Freedom. Before they restrict crossing the border to the remaining Free America.

Interesting, I hadn’t heard that.

Very few Mass residents ‘hunt deer’, I guess ......

Any news source covering the long lines of gun owners flocking to register their weapons, in order to comply with the new law?
