    Legal non-NFA short barrel "other" or "firearm"

    And that is why Suffolk PD issued a letter saying that the shockwave wasn't a shotgun and was therefore legal. By every letter of the law, this is legal. Because NY doesn't define a pistol(thereby falling back to federal defition), and the NY definition of "firearm" says it must be a...

    Brooklyn Cops Arrest Man with Antique Firearm Replica - NYPD News

    I remember when I went to register a cap and ball pistol with the local pistol bureau. They looked at me like I had 3 heads and gently tried to talk me out of it. I knew the sad state of affairs and they did it. I had to call the online website that I got it from though twice, as the pistol...

    Australian Mass Murder

    Desert Eagle .44

    Yeah, at least at the time of me writing this, there's no mention of an L5 in .50 on Magnum Research's website. Only the L6 model which comes in at 55oz.

    Desert Eagle .44

    I just picked up one in .44 Magnum the other day. I've also got the .357 magnum one. I've watched probably 100 reviews of Desert Eagles and the majority of them conclude that the .44 is the best one. The 50 is too much, especially when you're dropping the weight from the high 70 ounce range to...

    Holy 357 loads!!!

    For fun in 10mm, I load 15 grains of Alliant 2400 under a 135 grain Rainier plated bullet. See pic.

    State Police Announce Assault Weapon Registration Recertification Process !

    Most of the people I know that registered are the ones going to competitions regularly. When cops are often the ones showing up to these things, you don't want to always be looking over your shoulder. I guess there's a lot of upstaters here, but re-registering every five years has been standard...

    Desert Eagle .44

    I've got the Coonan in 357 as well. Particularly for the hotter loads, the DE has WAY less felt recoil with all its muzzle porting and thicker grip. The magazine also holds 2 more rounds than the Coonan's 7 rounds.

    Desert Eagle .44

    Gotcha. The only upside is that if you already own these off list pistols outside of CA, you can sell to someone there or if you move there you can bring them as long as they're not AWs.

    Desert Eagle .44

    Quoting from that page about micro stamping now being a requirement for a “safe” gun: Due to a law that became effective January 1, 2010, new models of semiautomatic pistols sold in California are required to have microstamping technology integrated into the pistol design, or the handgun will...

    Desert Eagle .44

    It’s because they require micro stamping now which no gun company is going to do. The list gets smaller every year because of this. There’s at least one big lawsuit going on for this currently.

    Desert Eagle .44

    I know 50AE sounds cool and all, but the 44 still gives crazy amount of bang while still being comfortable to shoot. 50AE crosses into novelty territory with the amount of recoil it generates.

    Desert Eagle .44

    The NY compliant L5’s come with a letter stating they’re only 49.6 ounces.

    Desert Eagle .44

    You can own both the 357 and 44 mag Desert Eagle in NY. Just have to get the NY compliant L5 model. I've got both and they're great.

    New hand cannon coming

    Well, for 460 magnum (.452 caliber) which is a fast and flat shooting round considering it's large diameter, its drop at 200-250 yards is around 5 inches. Many people with good eyes and low blood pressure can pull off an accurate shot at that distance. I know I couldn't, so for me, an optic...

    New hand cannon coming

    For some reason Midway never showed me those Speer JHP bullets when searching for 452 rounds. Those are significantly cheaper than the Hornady bullets I've been using. 30% cheaper if you step down from 500 diameter to 452 though. :) I was using the Hornady XTP Mag bullets in 460 because they're...

    New hand cannon coming

    i had a 500 magnum and eventually sold it to get into a 460 magnum instead. It's a bit easier on the recoil but more importantly, it uses ver common .452 bullets which are used in many calibers so reloading it is FAR cheaper than 500 magnum. i also picked up the 454/45 Colt Alaskan. With hot rod...

    Unrestricted to Restricted!

    You guys can argue "shall not be infringed" all day long, but if you're caught carrying out of class, and the cop notifies the licensing bureau, you will have your license revoked and you will have to turn over your handguns. This has happened many, MANY times both in news articles and...

    Unrestricted to Restricted!

    What matters the most is that all of this is before Heller. I know that SCOTUS isn't willing to enforce that ruling at this time, but if a case ever reaches them, they're going to spike this type of thing like a volleyball.

    2018 shot show > 2017 shot show, Tac-14 / shockwave brace....

    It looks like a stock, it functions as a stock. The only reason all these companies are putting it on there is because they know their customers will use it as a stock. The purpose of the NFA of 1934 was to prevent nefarious people from being able to conceal short rifles and shotguns. This "not...

    2018 shot show > 2017 shot show, Tac-14 / shockwave brace....

    Look, we know that the ATF has said it's not, but it is. Everyone knows it is and everyone uses it as one. With what's happening with the bump stock bans, I can't help but see this brace thing going in the same direction eventually.

    2018 shot show > 2017 shot show, Tac-14 / shockwave brace....

    Has there been any hint from the NY law enforcement or courts on whether a brace is a stock or not? I know the ATF says it's not.

    NJ moves to only allow 5 round mags ...Introducing new legislation

    It's my understanding that the judge(s) said that loading 7 in a 10 round magazine was unconstitutional, not that 7 round magazines were bad. The 7 round magazine was increased back to 10 rounds when Cuomo/legislature basically saw that it would outlaw almost all handguns which wasn't their...

    FightLite SCR Pistol

    It’s an assault weapon because the magazine is outside the pistol grip, among other banned features.

    How is this legal?

    Yeah in the case of a DIAS, that module (which doesn't require the third pin to be drilled for it to work) is the registered machine gun. These are probably the most sought after as they'll turn any new AR into a full auto if you have the rest of the parts.
  35. H

    How is this legal?

    Having those parts don't make your gun capable of full auto unless you've got a lower with the auto sear pin hole. Having that third hole is what makes the lower a machine gun as far as the ATF is concerned. That said, there's a lot of people who have registered full auto lowers, so buying these...

    Legal non-NFA short barrel "other" or "firearm"

    Because pump actions can’t be assault weapons no matter what features they have. Not the case with semi-autos which are highly restricted.

    New Westchester county executive bans guns shows on first day in office

    Independent of the gun aspect of it, I’ve been to a few gun shows and the Nazi stuff bugged me too.

    Coonan .357 Magnum Semi-Auto 1911

    The upside of the Coonan is that you don't have to worry about light grain .357 projectiles in it unlike a revolver. 110gr pills like from Hornady are great through it. With a revolver you always have to worry about top strap fire cutting. All of this said, I ended up with a NY compliant Desert...

    Coonan .357 Magnum Semi-Auto 1911

    Yeah, the recommended loads are Magtech 125 grain FMJs which are awesome to shoot, big flash etc, but I can't go more than 5 or 6 shots before it hurting. I swapped out the spring for the 38 special +P spring and was able to shoot more mild (but still rather hot) rounds and the gun became fun...

    Coonan .357 Magnum Semi-Auto 1911

    Damn, I wish saw this thread earlier, I'd have sold you mine for a deal. I like it and it's reliable with full powered ammo, but shooting the good high flash H110 powder loaded rounds hurts my wrists. Anything that will cycle the 357 powered springs reliably will cause pain for me. In hindsight...

    County clerks want meeting with Cuomo over handgun laws

    That's my point. Wouldn't the state police follow state law? Nowhere in state law does it mention restricted carry licenses. There's been a court case where the judge said "I'll allow it" but there's nothing in state law that says the state police could do that.

    County clerks want meeting with Cuomo over handgun laws

    I'd think it would actually go the other way. Only local counties do that garbage like Nassau and Suffolk. I think we'd have a better chance of finally getting rid of that if it was a uniform standard for everyone. As for the judges, having the state police handle it all would eliminate the...

    County clerks want meeting with Cuomo over handgun laws

    I think all of this make the obvious case that the state police should handle all licenses, for every county outside of NYC. Everyone gets the same license and goes through the same process no matter where you live. It would probably be far easier to solidify funding as well.
