I don't got a clue? the law doesn't seem to mention "body Armour", so I really think this is a waste of time and money

and what if your chest rig has ballistic plates in it? Is that a "body vest"

It's NYS, you expected better?

Looks like the dipshit AssemblyDouche doesn't know about plates. Current definition in NY law relates only to soft vests:

S 70.02 while possessing a
firearm, rifle or shotgun and in the course of and in furtherance of
such crime he wears a body vest.
2. For the purposes of this section a "body vest" means a
bullet-resistant soft body armor providing, as a minimum standard, the
level of protection known as threat level I which shall mean at least
seven layers of bullet-resistant material providing protection from
three shots of one hundred fifty-eight grain lead ammunition fired from
a .38 caliber handgun at a velocity of eight hundred fifty feet per
second.
The unlawful wearing of a body vest is a class E felony.

So three- piece suits are going to be illegal?

"BODY VEST, AS SUCH TERM IS DEFINED IN SUBDIVISION TWO OF SECTION 270.20,"


I can't find 270.20 to read the definition.

seven layers of bullet-resistant material providing protection from
three shots of one hundred fifty-eight grain lead ammunition fired from

now there copper jackets on them .. not the same LOL ..


FUAC FUNY

Just reading the law and definitions.

“Rifle “ plates ( ie hard plates) would still be legal under this proposed law

We need to get this “ dangerous firearm accessory “ off the streets.
WTF ! It’s as clear as day that our current politicians are the Mentally ill.

So a lot of people here own carriers or vests with steel plates inside them which are legal to own. This proposal was written so poorly and should have zero effect on the legality and ownership of them in particular.

Mine are ceramic.

Apparently Albany Swamp Rats claim the proposed bill and existing bill lists the minimum level of prohibited protection and ANYTHING providing a greater level of protection is prohibited by the proposed legislation. The existing bill prohibits use during a crime and the proposed bill criminalizes the posession or purchase.

Are vests with ball bearings / nails & C4 a "Go"?

Even under the current environment and an anti gun judge, it won’t pass muster.

Not sure what a "body vest" is but as a horny teenager I remember well my first encounter with a girl wearing a body suit! It was quite frustrating!

If your even remotely interested in body armor or plates get them while you can. You don't know what the future holds
