Most ranges in NYS do not allow Browning 50 cals to be fired, as they are destructive of the backstops, and very loud.

I used to fire a friends Barrett 50 cal Semi at Camden...big boom, lots of muzzle brake back blast.
He moved out of state, as the range banned them.

Not much practical use; heavy, one shot reveals you location. Fun, but the bill is not likely to pass. Youtube videos of hits in the sandbox, were spectacular on humans.

Doesn’t matter if they have a practical use or not. The second amendment doesn’t say anything about practically of guns.
people use them in long range shooting contests and for fun. They should be able to do that. I will likely never own one but if others want to I have no issue with that. Blow up a dead tree with one for all I care.

Anybody can get most destructive devices in NYS. Grenade launchers and rocket launchers are legal. There is no section of NYS penal code that outlaws them.

Interesting, Really? Hmm. I guess I had just assumed they had that buttoned up tight already.

The 12,000 lbs of muzzle energy pretty much negates a 12 gage shotgun, with rifled barrel,(72 caliber), from being banned.

Someone is very afraid of any guns in the hands of MAGA............very few dems own Barrett .50 cals.

A .458 Lott and 500 nitro express, only have maybe 6000 ft energy, tops.
Enough for Elephants and Buffalos.

The old 45-70 had a max range of 3500 yards. Hard to believe.

That means even a .270 Winchester or 30-06, can accurately hit a target at 1000 yards and more and do regularly with enough energy................ to kill at that distance.

Yet only a democrat sniped someone that I’m aware of. President trump and Kirk were shot long distance.

A hundred yards is "long distance" ?

For your average killing yes it’s very long distance relatively speaking. Also think like someone that knows nothing about guns and they’d say the same. It’s all a matter of prospective.
