If you lived in NYC you would probably leave them at your cabin to. I don’t live there but can you imagine bringing your guns home to the city and get pulled over? It would cost you your life’s savings in lawyers fees. At least from some of the stories I have read about NYC.

it’s NYPD. They would fire 100 rounds, hit you twice in the arm and hit about 30 bystanders and say “oops, our bad.”

I was born in NYC and finally left when I was 30.

You absolutely cannot believe, unless you are unusually well-informed, the scope of NYC gun laws.

As a condition of the merger of the five boroughs in 1898, Albany agreed that NYC could legislate on many subjects normally reserved to a State.

The Sullivan Act, passed in 1911, mandates one year in jail for illegal possession. And it’s routinely enforced (unless you are rich). And, virtually all possession is illegal. Even Plaxico Burris, AFTER catching the winning TD in the Super Bowl, went to prison (although for AD in a club, not simple possession).

NYC’s gun laws cannot possibly be constitutional. But there are so many of them that a legal attack is like climbing Everest.
