i live in Buffalo, and NY allows guns. what the problem is, is what you have to go through to get a permit. i am currently applying, and not only do you have to take 3 hour NRA safety course first, but you then have to fill out the application, complete with four character references (including their signatures and SS#), who have to live in your municipality, and are not related to you in any way. You must also state, in detail, why you want to own a pistol. After that, you send in the application, wait about 6 months, and then have two policemen come to your house to interview you. After that, THEN they decide whether you can own a gun.
No wonder so many people buy them illegally. Can you blame them?

You must also state, in detail, why you want to own a pistol. In the case of Mr. Carmack, that would be "because I've pissed off millions of people who would beat me up if they got the chance".
