here in the peoples republic of NY, this has been mandated for years....you can buy a trigger lock or you can bring one so that you show that you have one when you leave the store and that's it. I own 1 trigger lock that I bring to gun stores with me....and when I get the gun home I throw the lock in the draw until the next trip to the gun store. I don't know if bringing a gun lock to the store is acceptable to buy a gun under the new law, but if the law does not mandate its use nor does it mandate built in gun locks, (like on my sons new Remington shotgun,we unlocked it the day he got it and he probably doesn't know where the key is at this point in time). I hate the add on to this bill, but it was not a pound of flesh by any stretch of the imagination. It was a save face add on for those cretins in the senate that needed to tell their anti-gun constituents that they passed an anti gun bill. playing both sides of the fence as is their want.

It shouldn't be in there; there is no reason for it to be there. The language should be removed.

That's OK until you have to kill an intruder in your home and then your senators and others will try to make YOU the bad guy, and they might very well succeed.

Note: I wouldn't use the lock either.
