"have been shipping ammunition directly to New York residents in violation of New York’s SAFE Act, which prohibits direct online sales of ammunition to New York residents. "
LIE!
The unSAFE Act does no such thing UNTIL an ammunition background check system is running.

Correct, elections have consequences and since 2A groups, with limited exceptions, did not even pretend to care about local elections this is what we get.

I rather like this part
”In addition, Attorney General James demanded that the sellers take every necessary step to preserve all physical and electronic records related to these sales. “

“Shipping bullets to New Yorkers’ doorsteps is illegal and ammunition sellers that ignore the law will face the full force of my office,” said Attorney General James.
Looks like either James is an idiot, or reloaders will have start buying factory rounds for doorstep delivery instead of bullets.

This release is shocking. "An investigation by the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) found that 39 ammunition sellers have been shipping ammunition directly to New York residents in violation of New York’s SAFE Act, which prohibits direct online sales of ammunition to New York residents."
There are 39 places to shop? I had no idea. Who are they?

Luckily I still get bullets shipped no problem! I hope they stay away from reloading supplies.

this is literally the funnest thing I read all day. Meanwhile, in the rest of free America, everyone, everywhere is buying ammo as fast as they can, probably to protect themselves from asshole like james.
And, anyone can go to Vermont, Pennsylvania or Ohio and have a field day buying ammo. LITERALLY the stupidest statement ever.
so glad I left that shit hole

If anyone with deep pockets wants to invest in an ammo retail store in Matamoras PA, drop me a note. We can squeeze it in between the fireworks and tobacco stores that NY chased away.

I see a chain of stores from Matamoras to Erie working out well. I’m down for one in the Hallstead/Great Bend area. Hey! Maybe the Seneca could pick up on that too, since they love to kick sand at NYS from time to time.

She has no jurisdiction in other states. If it's not illegal in their state, she can't enforce an unconstitutional law from NY in Texas. If she tries, that's basically declaring war on another state since she's trying to govern citizens of another state.

Right now, anyone who sells ammo to NY is getting calls from their lawyers and accounts telling them what their defense will cost if NY decides to sue them civilly.

I will gladly ship your ammo to you once I get to TN. No personal information will be saved, or shared, EVER.
Every one of those 39 businesses, as well as every New York citizen who intends on purchasing ammo, should be suing FULJ for violation of civil rights under color of law, interference in interstate commerce, and out-right lying through her teeth.
Unless they got an ammo database up and running since last Tuesday she is wrong.
It's time she paid for her incompetence.

4 years of her bullshit, for a mere 300k votes. NY is hosed.

It doesn't even do it then.
If you could figure out how to run the background check while selling online, it would *still* be legal.
If they can arraign someone by video, you should be able to run a background check via zoom too

The reason for the face-to-face purchase of ammunition was to conduct the supposed background check.It doesn't even do it then.

As long as there was no such background check system in place, then there was also no reason for an in-person purchase. Ergo, until such a background check system is available, online purchases are legal.

This is all designed to bully and intimidate companies into not selling to us

I was just saying, if they could get a ruling that zoom meetings are "face to face", then even with background checks, online sales would be good to go.
Good for her. Apparently, this is the kind of swift action that many in NY want to see happen.
Glad she is taking good care of the voting public.
