NY State banned many firearms some time ago and even required they be turned in (as I recall). Haven't heard a word about that since. What's going on there?
you just are not allowed to load them with more than 7 rounds. this was changed shortly after the law went into effect as being totally unreasonable.
And of course, if they can mandate a 7 round limit on ammo carried in magazines, they can mandate 6, or 5, or 4, or 3, or 2...
Does that mean that my 33-round stick-mag for my Glock wouldn’t be welcome in NY? Bummer! Guess I’ll have to strike a tourist visit to NY off my bucket list...
I am stuck do to my wife’s elderly and sick and ‘not going to move’ parents.
I would leave here in a NY minute if it was not for family.
you be right....nothing stopping them.
if they wish to have a handgun.
The "logic" is that a flintlock is what was available when the Constitution was ratified, so any subsequent technological developments aren't protected. Mind you, they're exercising their 1st Amendment rights to say that on the Internet...
Magazine?
don’t bring your Glock, into new York period, it be a felony....unless you are just driving through(and not stopping, cept for gas or lunch). or have a document from an NRA sanctioned shooting match from a club in NY state that you are going to shoot in. I use to shoot with a SASS club and we had all our matches sanctioned so our Connecticut/Jersey/PA friends could come for the matches. Had they not had the flyer from the match and got caught with the gun at a hotel, etc, they could have been arrested on a felony rap.
So far, I can honestly state that I don't miss the cold, taxes, or loss of freedom that exists in NYS...
DU has nothing but leftists posting. except when some brave souls trolls them.
BTW NY law says you can buy flint and/or cap and ball handguns without a permit in NY (even cap and ball revolvers)....
...you just cannot own all the supplies(cap or flint, ball, powder) necessary to fire it.
Piers is a sore loser, his boys lost to the guys with the “muskets.”
I had permits to own handguns when I lived in NY, but no CCW (not a LEO or “special” like the pols there...). All in my family have CCW’s now. There is no way, shape, or form that I would consider bringing a handgun back into NY. I have no desire to become a charge of the NYS Prison System (biggest employer in some areas of the state). It seems that half the NYS population works for the state watching the other half, and the watched half is getting tired of it and moving to greener pastures...
You can’t buy black powder or percussion caps in NY? Seriously?
There goes my plan to arm myself with a LeMat revolver in the absurdly unlikely event that I move to New York...!
I’m not a big fan of netspeak, but...pwnd!
How does one go about outlawing flint? It's a piece of rock.
Rush calls Dad, Mario the Pious... I suppose sonny could be Andrew the jackass....(Curtiss Sliwa calls him Andrew ‘evil eye’ Cuomo)
Nothing worse than a liberal American of Italian heritage (I do not hyphenate)
the Cuomo family has shamed all Americans of Italian descent and I take that personally.
yes you can.
but if you own a cap and ball revolver, you cannot keep the powder, ball/shot and cap in the same residence that you have the gun....
....well you can have some of the items as long as one of the necessary item, needed to fire it, is missing.
Your LeMat of course is a shotgun with a revolver wrapped around it...and neither you, nor General Beauregard could fire one in NY State without special dispensation from Pope Andrew the first...
I dunno...all the items can be possessed except one...with your unregistered muzzle loading pistol....in NY State.
if you keep the flint in a relatives house you are golden...
NY bites the big one.
pwnd
isn’t that a typo legitimized as netspeak..
I use very little netspeak(an occasional LOL)...and I do not do social networking....it is trouble waiting to happen...
