New Mag capacity limits in New York

[saintnick81]

New York is trying to limit magazine capacity to 7.

Here's the Link. Sorry.

Would that also apply to police? I'm only curious for the next time the decide to hold an annual NYPD range-day parade.

Sure glad I don't live in NY. Screw that nonsense.

Ten to 7, how laughable is that. That'll stop that gun violence! Just something to anger the gun owners and make their dumb voters think they're doing something. Oh boy...

7? They have a year to sell them out of state?

If any New Yorkers want to unload some Sig P220 or 1911 magazines, I'll be happy to goug...err...offer you a post-ban adjusted price for them.

You just cannot make this stuff up!

 

[MrSmitty]

Can't someone just ban Bloomberg, and Cuomo????and all the other Libtards from the US

It's brilliant! The subcompact conceal carry segment of the market is the one that's selling like hotcakes.

Most guns in that category have magazines that hold about 5 to 7 rounds.

So a la peanut butter sandwich! A new law that won't hurt the sales of the best selling pistol niche market!

I'll say it again. I hate politics.

That's dumb.

Just remember - New Yorkers voted these dumbasses into office so they reap what they sow.

The problem of course is if other areas of the country follow their precedent. I really hope someone in that city finally wakes up to what is going on

It's to increase 1911 sales I heard.

Just to update this parallel thread, the NY senate just passed the measure. Tomorrow their state assembly gets it.

This is getting ridiculous.

 

[xoregonian]

Thank God I live here. Does that mean an 8rd enbloc is out? What about my 10rd Enfield mag. The Garand and Enfield have bayonets and are military rifles. The horror!

Maybe removable mags only? What are all those rappers and celebs gonna do? Get special dispensation?

 

[mk2ja]

Geez. Yeah, because the current limit of 10 rounds is clearly not working. All those crimes with 10-round magazines could have been averted if only the guns hadn't loaded themselves with 3 fewer rounds bullets!


:eyeroll:

 

[STEEL CORE]

So anyone outside of NYC will have to get rid of standard capacity magazines which held over 7 rds or become a miscreant. Think it cannot happen here, executive order................?
