Not to give these dumb fucks any ideas (not that they need it; they'll do what they'll do), but the text of this bill makes selling an "unfinished frame or receiver" (per its vague definition) an A misdemeanor in New York unless there is first a NICS check and it is serialized before it is sold...
Garbage, out of three I bought two would not even seat. Apparently it's not unusual to have to do work on them to get them to function. I don't consider this acceptable. I've never had an issue with Ruger factory mags. Maybe I was just unlucky but I don't think so.
Would you really want the government to open the NICS database to any identity thief that knows your name and date of birth? Careful what you wish for.
It sort of is. Even in New York you can get a NICS check done at an FFL and then complete the transfer/private sale yourself, which keeps the transfer off the FFL’s books and inventory; they’ll have no record of sale. In NY this is required if they aren’t qualifying immediate family, but you can...
Alright, good luck with that guys. So what if your customer is rambling to themselves, has spent a month in a mental hospital, and their shopping list is a pallet of Hi-Points, 40 pounds of black powder, a few bags of buckshot and a few pressure cookers, $20 is $20 and what he does is his...
Personally, while I don’t want mandated background checks on private sales, I do think there has to be some seller accountability, or those laws are going to become inevitable.
And not singling put guns here either. If someone sold this character a load of nitrate fertilizer into a U-haul truck...
If it’s reported correctly, then law enforcement did what they always do and traced the serial from the manufacturer to the dealer, pulled the dealers log, and then went and had a chat with the buyer, who presumably indicated that he sold it to this guy in 2014.
Well they are reporting now that he bought the AR in a private sale.
So question; what responsibility if any do you think the seller has?
Would you be okay with selling a gun (receiver) in a private sale to someone you knew nothing about and who hadn’t done any background check? (Assume you...
That’s usually not the case, the defense lawyers/experts normally only get access to inspect contraband evidence of that sort (in particular CP) on-site in a state-controlled facility, and cannot retain samples or copies.
Ok, so the security guard was an idiot, but the IRS office is a gun-free zone, so the idiot is right about that isn’t he?
Now, obviously uniformed ON-DUTY cops need to keep their gun on them while they go about their business. So if they’re buying their donuts or whatever that they need to get...
30 mostly glowing posts and no mention of her actual position on guns? Lets see, from her own campaign site:
"Tulsi has an F-rating from the NRA, a 0% rating by the Hawaii Rifle Association, and a 100% rating by the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence."
"Tulsi is a cosponsor of H.R. 5087...
Really? It's not like she had any special involvement, she was just at both of these huge events. People who go to huge festivals tend to like going to lots of different festivals; would you expect someone to hole up at home the rest of their life if there was a shooting at one of them?
Think...
It's not that weird. There were 22,000 people at the Route 91 festival the day of that shooting and there are over 100,000 folks at the garlic festival over the weekend. It doesn't surprise me that the media could find someone who was somewhere at both events when you have numbers that large...
That would certainly change the scenario and should absolve the gun shop (and the FBI) in that case. Looks like he had just rented it:
Gilroy shooter linked to home in Walker Lake
All the news is reporting that he bought this rifle legally in Nevada and brought it to California illegally, but also that this kid was a lifelong Gilroy resident. If so that's not true, it's was an illegal transfer, as an FFL can only legally transfer rifles to an out-of-state buyer if it is...
Did you read the law I quoted, which seems to be the source of the 6 round (including chamber) hunting restriction? It says it's also illegal to possess in the fields, forests, or waters of the state for any purpose. Not only hunting.
I'm not talking about carrying or hunting with a pistol. I'm...
Holy shit, Cuomo wants all of New York State to be Tompkins County.
Cuomo would probably be on board with that. Would fit in nicely with his GHG policy, infantilization of youth and destruction of rural communities.
So, I thought the 5 round center-fire magazine limit applied to hunting. The DEC website says as much:
Hunting Regulations - NYS Dept. of Environmental Conservation
But when I looked up the actual law ECL § 11-0931, I find:
"Possess in the fields or forests or on the waters of the state for...
Freeville is closer to Groton—where Democrats and liberals are rare as hen's teeth—than Ithaca, so it's a real mix.
Amy Dickinson is a lib with liberal blind spots and this column is a real stunner even coming from her. She's also a rank hypocrite; she's leading a brigade against a solar farm...
Do you not use proper ear protection at the range? That would explain both the "damn boom" and your hearing getting bad. I guess the damage is done, but you probably want to protect what you have left in your golden years.
Ok big guy, why are you bothering with maglocks at all?
Since the SAFE Act is obviously unconstitutional, why don't you parade down Main Street in Rochester slinging a properly-configured AR-15?
You first.
It's not just a push, it's been passed, and Cuomo will sign it.

I don't think it's out of hand. This was just a couple weeks ago; he runs an extremely tacticool training business "ASSAULT DYNAMICS - COMBAT TACTICS," holds himself out as a professional and takes money to train people to do things that are in his opinion the correct way.
There were several...
Two butthurt gun nuts really believed Trump was their personal savior, and when he did a couple things that didn't line up with the 2A agenda now he's the worst person in the world, because they'd rather have an enemy in office set to take away all our gun rights than feel betrayed by buddy...
Ah, lying with statistics, claiming that good old Massachusetts proves that guns are bad.
There's a few problems with this. New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, Idaho, and Utah all have lower murder rates, "despite" some of the highest gun ownership rates and lowest gun regulations. Apparently, there...
True, but,
Almost certainly untrue; the lawyers could argue to the judge before trial or outside the presence of the jury that other states law is pursuasive, but the judge would determine what NY law is and instruct the jury on that and instruct them to apply the facts to that law. The jury...
A bunch of people commenting on the video remark on him having all the students downrange of the muzzle in close quarters; a couple also mention the two hands on the gun. I also think the shooters downrange is unnecessary and a serious concern, but not as big of a one as him putting his hands on...
I think this so-called instructor is also playing fast and loose with safety by racking the slide of a loaded gun for that his student is aiming, coming within a fraction of an inch of muzzling at least his right hand while his student with poor trigger discipline is holding onto it.
Even if he...
Only if they find it violates the federal constitution (2A). It's a state constitutional amendment, so as long as the procedure is followed, it couldn't be struck down based on state law or state constitution.
And SCOTUS would have the final word if they wanted to weigh in on the federal...
I don't think it will pass, given that they need 60% if they do get on the ballot and it's so poorly written, but the prospect that it might, or even that it could get a majority vote in Florida, is frightening for the future.
Ha, I ended up buying the Patrick Henry trigger guard while this was out of stock. I don't see myself building another spur grip lower, tempting as this is.
So, this appears to be a new one in the ever-changing definition of "assault weapon."

If it takes a...
Yes, longer than you. :) Sorry for triggering you so badly with the phrase "tinfoil hat."

Nope, asymptomatic Ebola is not contagious. It spreads from fluids (primarily hemorrhaging blood) after you start showing symptoms. At that point you will be on your back in a matter of hours if that.

Untrue. The homeless could shit in any Starbucks in SF. Government handouts combined with nonenforcement of quality of life laws are exactly what draws homeless like flies to shitholes like San Francisco, Seattle, and Portland.
Free stuff + no standards = feral humans living like animals.
How about the right of a child to have a natural bond with the woman who gave birth to them, the right to have what we used to call a “mother.”
