The idea of spending $1400 on a Glock is nuts. Look at a CZ Tactical Sport Orange or CZ Shadow 2 or something. Or an EAA Witness Elite. All truly top of class guns for the same price range.

With appellate courts in NY and California already deciding the we have zero right to carry concealed weapons, even after murder attempts and death threats, I can't see this going anywhere.

Yep, the "one firearm only" part of the Nassau handbook is only for the non-unrestricted licensees. Unrestricted licenses in Nassau are like a unicorn though. Scuttlebutt is that there are less than 12 of them in the county.

And if we want to be anal about it, "secured for travel" means the following: APPROPRIATELY SECURED FOR TRAVEL: To have unloaded firearm(s) in a locked container with ammunition and firearms stored separately in locked containers.Storage should be in the trunk, however, if the vehicle does not...

Under definitions for Target/Hunting carry license: Section 1c: c. Firearms may only be transported between the licensee's residence and a lawful target shooting location and/or a lawful hunting area located within the State of New York (also see “Traveling Through New York City (Five...

In Nassau county, you'll get your license suspended/revoked if you're carrying more than one loaded gun on your person. It's in the handbook.

Rifles and shotguns can't be loaded while transporting via car. Pistols can be loaded, but although legal, it's a bad idea to have any guns with rounds in the chamber while they're not in your immediate control.

You're correct by the letter of the law, but not in our twisted reality. The Rossi Ranch Hand is completely legal by the letter of the law in NY to have as pistol on your pistol license. The NYSP however has told Rossi that they can't be sold here, although it seems some have made it through to...

The AOW (not the shockwave) goes on the NY permit because it's under 26" and meets the NY definition of a firearm. Realistically I don't think we'll know how NYSP thinks about this until a few FFLs start calling them about it.

I'm not understanding. The shockwave isn't an AOW in NY State or federally. They do have another model that has a forward grip though which IS an AOW if that's what you're talking about. You can have that in NY but you'd need the NFA tax stamp and it goes on your NY pistol license. A bunch of...

Supremacy Clause - Wikipedia The federal government guarantees a right or restricts a right. The states then have the ability to restrict it further as long as it doesn't conflict with federal law. In the absence of the state defining or restricting something, federal law is supreme.

It's not a firearm by New York's definition. It doesn't fit. If a state doesn't have their own definition of an object, then it defaults to the federal definition. The federal government DOES define a pistol and that definition doesn't fit the shockwave either. The ATF has said that guns that...

Good god you're still doing it. No barrel was ever "cut down" and then you equate it in the end to what would be making a short barreled shotgun when these 2 things are by the law, not the same thing. Laws have meaning and these laws have more than 70 years of federal NFA court cases...

You're still ignoring the definition of a shotgun, for the second time. This gun was never a shotgun because it never had a stock on it and therefore was never designed to be fired from the shoulder.

Please read code 265 of the NY law. It says a "firearm" is a pistol or revolver, a rifle with a barrel shorter than 16" and a shotgun with a barrel shorter than 18". Therefore, this gun doesn't meet the definition of NY's definition of a firearm. It does meet the federal definition of a firearm...

By both federal and state definitions, it's not a shotgun because it's not designed to be fired from the shoulder. It comes from the factory with a bird's head grip, not a stock and is over 26 inches. It doesn't meet the definition of a pistol either because it doesn't have a rifled barrel and...

I've got the M&P core ported 40. It's ok, but the recoil control isn't anywhere near what a threaded muzzle with a 3 chamber compensator will give you.

Yeah, tasers, but you know what's going to happen after we get tasers? Carrying tasers in NYC concealed or openly. When they go to fight that, SCOTUS ends up ruling that any arms (in this case tasers) must be allowed to be beared, not just kept in the home. BAM. Concealed carry of handguns and...

I don't think it mattered when you look at what the state put forth. Any court should have laughed out the evidence and they did the opposite. The fix was in from the very beginning. Our only hope was it making it to SCOTUS but Scalia just had to go out all James Gandolfini style after a large...

Well, we had them and we lost. We may win eventually, but another state will be carrying the torch.

I'm betting they force people to have a pistol permit to get one under the guide of "reasonable restrictions".

I forget which ones do it, but there's already a couple of states that have constitutional carry that will issue a permit specifically for the purpose of using it in a non-resident reciprocity role at this point, so it shouldn't be a sticking point.

I see the whole "If NYC's only choice was granting a CCW, or allowing you to open carry, they would grant a lot more CCW's" thing to not be correct. If the 2nd amendment is ruled that they can't outlaw open carry, then the government won't have a choice. They won't be able to say here, we allow...

MilesTeg, if you don't stop laughing so loud, they're going to get suspicious!

That's just like, your opinion man. But seriously did you forget what state's forum you're on? There's nobody here with 30 round magazines.

Sure. That said, open carrying in a nose to armpit sardine can that is your typical NY subway car would be a nightmare.

Before SAFE, I often used 30 round pre-ban mags in competitions. I could seat fully loaded 30 round mags and I could manually chamber the first round, but after it fired it, there was so much pressure on the remaining rounds that it defeated the buffer spring's ability to strip the next round...

Repub House and Senate pass National Reciprocity. Brady Bunch sues to stop it. Goes to SCOTUS. They confirm as Justice Scalia implied in Heller, that you have no right to carry concealed, only openly. National Reciprocity is repealed.
