I'm curious how they plan to do background checks on ammo purchases. Will they actually call the fbi like when calling in a 4473? I'm sure the criminals won't figure out they can just drive across state lines and buy ammo At least their crime rate will drop now. Right guise? guise?
Sweet, New York and Chicago can be fine examples of how gun control does not work.
Just like California shows how entitlements aren't affordable and Detroit a shining example of unions.
Sit back and let them rot.
Isn't it obvious? New York politicians can only count to seven.* ban on pre 1994 mags with cap of 11 or more
* ban on mags over 7 rounds
* background checks on all ammo purchases
* mental health reporting which is to be checked against the (new??) gun registry database
* 1 feature test for AW. Bushmaster AR banned by name
* 10 round mags to be grandfathered in but may only be loaded with 7 rounds (read elsewhere this will be a misdemeanor)
* all sales of ammo from registered ammo dealers to be reported to local police
* background check on all ammo purcahses
* ban of direct internet ammo purchases
* ammo purchases to go through FFL
* five year renewable registration for AW and handguns

Welcome to the Socialist Utopia of New York.
Kindly leave your firearms, common sense, and any shred of independence that you may have at the State line.
And to think cuomo might run for the next presidential election. I shudder at that thought.
The state of New York lost 3 pro gun republicans from upstate in the last election who voted for same sex marriage. Goes to show that the people of new york would rather have their 2A rights stomped on than have same sex marriages.
Where did you get "we?" The people of New York State are getting exactly what they deserve. If they don't like it, there will be an election soon.
That's exactly how the process should work.
So since New York is going to be so safe, does that mean that when Barack Obama isn't going to need secret service when he is in New York? We should save some money on secret service now!
