Public indoor ranges exist; in New York even. Coyne Park Rifle and Pistol Range is part of a municipal park in Yonkers just over the border from the Bronx. Not expecting to see a huge immediate impact in NY but it’s good to see this bill finally pass.

I don’t expect a degenerate like you to feel shame, but quoting you is not slander. It’s not to shame you, just to highlight your admitted degeneracy to others who don’t know better. You literally said you defend child porn. So it’s zero surprise that you’re also proud to advertise your...

This must be the "fix" Cuomo is waiting for to sign the damn storage bill that passed the legislature already. :banghead: Nothing to like here.

I quoted and linked it in the other thread in my post. In his words, "Ehh, this is where I defend even child porn under the 1A."

You're a degenerate cuck who literally defends child pornography: And I'm all for shaming and ostracizing degenerates like you as long as you're openly advocating and defending this degeneracy. As for this bill, I don't see it passing in New York. I expect they might end up doing something...

Good deal; much better option than a shockwave imho. I’ve got one but without the laser and lots of practice (and ideally a brace) it’s not a great option for HD. The stock makes all the difference.

It's not retroactive in the ex post facto sense; it doesn't make you a criminal for having manufactured or possessed it before. It "just" makes possession of your previously lawful gun criminal going forward (no grandfathering). The "legal" options being to serialize and register, take it out of...

Oh they aren't? So what are? The Brown Bess and Kentucky long rifle, and that's it? Do you think suppressors have no purpose as "arms"? Please do explain. Be sure to also explain why if a suppressor isn't "covered" under the 2A, then why would flash hiders, muzzle brakes, grips, sights, etc...

While I don't take anything a prosecutor says at face value, it looks like there is good news/bad news for this guy: Deerfield double-fatal shooting challenges prosecutors So the DA is already saying he doesn't want him to do any jail time, and certainly doesn't sound like he's going to pursue...

Maybe Piers should explain to Trump how suppressors are completely unregulated in the UK. Unserialized and they sell them to tourists off the shelf. Silencers So Easy to Get in the UK that American Tourist Brings Some Home, Goes to Prison - AllOutdoor.com To the extent that they are regulated...

Section 28 is added to the definitions in 265.00. It's not referenced in this new crime of "assembling or manufacturing a firearm" in added created in 265.10 (8). There's no reference to "unfinished firearm frame or receiver" in 265.10 (8). That's only referenced in the new definition of "ghost...

And you're talking to a guy who defends child porn:

Holy crap this is bad: Note, this isn't "ghost gun." This is any gun. Not just manufacturing, but assembling. Building your own rifle from stripped receiver and parts? That might be covered.

So sharing a CAD file would be a class D violent felony. Great priorities.

What, like Colorado?

I think he’s uninformed, speaking off the cuff to a reporter shouting a question at him, and never seriously thought about suppressors. Clearly guns have never been an especially near and dear issue to Trump’s heart (despite him being a N.Y. pistol permit holder), but I predict nothing will...

Too bad I lost all my Hexmags in a tragic boating accident. Crazy how that happens.

Derp. My post sure didn’t age well. Wonder what prompted that. It’s bad news, but there are certainly a lot of the unriveted ones circulating.

Well, before this breaking news about fixing base plates all you needed was a standard spring.

I never understood that attitude... I’ve seen that said here and in Calguns forums where the attitude is all around (understandable) doom, gloom and paranoia, but when it comes to standard AR mags ppl say pmags and GI mags are cheap, just buy them when you need them. Yeah AR mags are cheap now...

Right, and I should have known about that “readily converted” bit. Sucks. There are a LOT of Hexmags out there though and I hope there are a LOT of them upstate. It’s a small thing in our shitty gun law state but at least that.

Yeah I guess this: “ 23. "Large capacity ammunition feeding device" means a magazine, belt, drum, feed strip, or similar device, that (a) has a capacity of, or that can be readily restored or converted to accept, more than ten rounds of ammunition,” Well, they sell them here. Has anyone ever...

Citation?

The Hexmag is sweet and it is compliant. Just taking out the riser isn’t sufficient to get a functional 30 round mag. You will get 30 in but not 30 out. You also have to replace the spring. So having standard springs does make them a nice route to having mags that you can convert when going to...

Do you mean "now"? Short answer is "yes" it is now. Just don't walk around with it showing outside your pocket in NYC (and no carrying knives > 4 inches in NYC either). And no switchblades (automatic or possibly assisted openers). Before this law, provided the knife locked open, what you are...

Ok, you got me, fellow pedant, but I what I really meant here was a summons, not an appearance ticket. Regardless, this local law was a violation, like a beer ticket, not a misdemeanor, and so while it would show up on your rap sheet it wouldn't be considered a "criminal" offense or record. I...

Probably not. That’s a city code violation which would probably be an appearance ticket. Small fine, no jail (probably; maximum under law is 15 days; like a speeding ticket). Versus gravity knives previously being a crime that could be a year in jail on first offense, felony with years in...

They do, and they always have a list of reasons why these “perps” got what’s coming to them. Even though they are taking them to Riker’s for nothing but having a flipping knife in their pocket.

Judging from history only the few truly clueless turn in anything worth buying. The rest is either trash or stolen. And an FFL can’t very well take a gun anonymously no questions asked like these operations.

Right, and how do you settle that dispute? “Well if you won’t take my illegal operable assault weapon I’ll take my patronage elsewhere.” Yeah, no.

Almost all of the knives people were getting charged for as "gravity knives" in NYC were sold openly at hardware and sporting goods chains in NYC. They didn't have to leave the city (you know how much NYC people hate to do that).

That would be one way to figure it out.

The thing is on forums like this people talk out of both sides of their mouth. How many people on this forum have commented on news stories saying if you see someone with a gun on them look at you sideways on the street you should shoot them instantly (seriously). In the seconds or minutes...

That was based on a court of appeals decision last year that upheld a conviction based on a knife found on a guy riding on the subway. The majority opinion had no explanation for why it met the statutory definition...

Makes no sense to me. Hacking the end off a old gun for $150 is perfect but $200 for a brand new, suitable pump off the shelf is no-go? For a gun she wants to protect her life with? I know you said you can't explain it, but if you can't negotiate a way for her to get a suitable working gun and...

Sorry if I offend any thin blue liners, but I know a lot of NYPD cops love getting an easy collar for gravity knives. Upstate cops never enforced "gravity knife" laws to begin with.

This happened last decade in Tunckhannock, Pa. DA there threatened to charge a bunch of 13 year old girls with child pornography for sending some racy photos if they didn't attend a reprogramming course!

This is so true. Andy said we "have no place in New York." It's lefty city folk who have no understanding or the least concern for our way of life, perfectly happy to drive us out of our homes and livelihoods. Once upon a time Connecticut and upstate NY were the historic strongholds of the gun...

I was told similar in a tactical shotgun class (in NY). I was there to learn shooting techniques, not to argue about the law though, so I kept my mouth shut.

Sure. New York had no law against butterfly knives/balisongs to begin with, so they were already legal. But some of them got swept up as "gravity knives". They aren't, because a gravity knife is defined to "lock into place" and a butterfly knife normally doesn't do that. There were still people...

Interesting idea. Insurance companies love flushing their policies down the toilet? Can you explain to me why I can't go 5 seconds without encountering a GEICO ad? Or do you honestly believe that gun owners make so many more claims that they are actually uninsurable? Capitalism and the free...

As many others have pointed out, there doesn't need to be any attack. Burglary is inherently a violent felony. It is a complete defense to homicide in New York if you are using deadly force to PREVENT or TERMINATE a burglary or attempted burglary, and if you reasonably believe it is necessary...

Well I'll be damned. When do we get wrist-braced slingshots?
