I Should Have Registered My AR

I wrote out an entire post about and decided it would sound wrong; I deleted it.

I said for home defense. And I always had an AR mag nearby. With a 10 Rd limit, couplers work. You can also have them in pouches on your butt stock or stash them around the house.

Look what happened at Texas with that home invasion that was covered up. Ten rounds fixed wouldn't cut the mustard.

I remember at the other place I got told that if I needed more than 10rds to defend myself at home that I was doing things wrong guess home intruders follow a code of Honor

Well while you're thinking. The registration process was supposed to get rid of all assault weapons in a generations time by making it illegal to sell, transfer or gift them inside the state. Massive non-compliance with registration has totally eliminated that possibility.

It's mostly all common knowledge at this point in time. It was very easy to predict all of that well before there was even a deadline to register in fact. At the end of the day, there were more advantages to registering than previously thought by many, and going on 5+ years now.

And if the law ever went away, we could have just bought new lowers. But sadly, I don't think it'll ever go away and a Federal Ban will come within the next 20 years anyway.

Now you're being optimistic. I can almost guarantee a new awb the next time we have a democrat president and it'll be a lot sooner than 20 years.

You should register......yourself....to vote...in another state. It will buy you SOME time.

So far, I see gun owners going silently into the night, despite all the brave talk.

Also you seem to be forgetting that some had ar's before 2013 and could register or not, but what about those who wanted an ar after that date? There are only a couple options for them. Featureless or fixed mag or nothing.

I’m in that group, and chose featureless builds to have fully functional rifles. I doubt that I would have registered regardless, as I believe there will eventually be confiscation.

Willjr75 said:

Yes you read it correctly. I didn't register and instead modified it to tow the line. That's bad you say eh?

Well what about all the people on this forum registering AR pistols? Or the new Sig or Glock something or other? Are they towing the line? Nope. Why is it okay to register a gimped short barreled rifle with a brace and not a rifle?

I was bamboozled. Had I registered it, I would have a fully featured legal AR for defense until they took it just like the AR pistols and the Smith & Wesson revolvers.

You get my point? I fucked myself. I could have had a working AR and gimped ones that they didn't know about.

This is true. Smart people will have registered an AR before the deadline so that they have a full featured one, and then have unregistered/compliant ones. The gov clearly knows who is and who isn't a gun owner, so the only risk with the aforementioned approach is that you potentially have to ultimately lose the registered AR. But in the meantime you don't have a gimped one, like all the post-safe ones are.

You fuckers really will argue about absolutely anything.

Don't Forget to double tap

The plan is , every single registered rifle will be confiscated. There is no other reason to register other than confiscation and government control over your property. Legal and illegal will become irrelevant once they are outlawed. They will all be illegal.

I am one of the few due to my NYS license that registered my "assault rifles". I already have my pistols "registered" on my permit as well. Did I want to register? Absolutely not however I feared that the administration likes to make an example out of "Professionals" in this state so I could not take the chance. I had 100% complied previously with "preban" mags, "preban" rifles and whatever laws previous to the safe act. I was stuck between a rock and a hard place. I love my guns and have been shooting for over 51 years...I however love my ability to provide for my family more...and I could not risk it....I plan on moving in 10 years as well

Or just realize that if you can get it, you don’t have to register it. Take that as you will.

In not so secret code this translates to-

You can get these over the counter almost all over the country, Cuomo can and should suck a bag of dicks. The end.

See post above. Having in floorboards is one thing. Using it for home defense is another.

Ever heard of metal detectors? When they come for your registered AR they will be leaving with all of them.
