mp123 0 Posted February 19, 2013 So how does it work. I have two properties in NY state. Stinks that I can't bring my pistols there. How will it work with my "assault" rifles and 10 round magazines. I assume that I have to get 7 round magazines. Can I still bring in my "assault" rifle if I am a NJ resident? Does the 7 round apply to my "evil" .22? At this point I'm going to probably sell my seasonal home and another piece of property I own in NY state. Was seriously thinking of retiring in NY state but at this point I don't see that as an option. Stinks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greatgunstatenj 32 Posted February 19, 2013 Local people upstate probably wouldn't hassle you but if I was in your shoes I wouldn't travel into NY with anything other than a musket until the dust settles and we know what's what. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSD1026 48 Posted February 19, 2013 assault weapons now have one required "evil feature" instead of 2 to be considered an assault weapon.. if you have an "assault weapon" that has detachable 10 rd capacity, it can only be filled to 7 rounds (or any other weapon with detachable multiple round capacity) only .22 that is exempt is ".22 caliber tubular magazines".. if i were you, i wouldnt bring any of it there at this point http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NY_SAFE_Act Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was seriously thinking of retiring in NY state but at this point I don't see that as an option. Stinks. The provision for continued ownership of "assault" rifles is for residents to register them in order to legally possess and use them. (Remember, when a N.Y. resident dies now they cannot transfer the registered firearm to a legal heir. It needs to be sold out of state or turned in to police.) There is no provision for a non-resident to register a gun, and who would if there was such a thing? You cannot shoot your "fill-in-the-blank" rifle if it fits their description as defined in New York anymore. However: Your Ruger 10/22 in standard configuration loaded with 7-rounds in the magazine is fine. Your M1 Garand with the bayonet lug ground off with less than 8 rounds in the en-bloc clip is fine. (Those new seven-round clips will be coming out shortly. Grind the bayonet lug? That's sacrilegious.) Your M1A with flash suppressor removed, threads ground off the muzzle end with 7-rounds in the detachable magazine is fine. (How you affix a front sight after that exercise and keep it pretty is a chore for the kitchen-gunsmith.) Your AR is toast. The law is extremely onerous. I suggest you call 1-855-529-4867 where the NYSP will be happy to give you a detailed if not terse response of "no." (That's the story I got.) We can only hope that the lawsuits filed will rectify some of the issues. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Howard 538 Posted February 19, 2013 How is only allowing you to load 7 rounds in one that can hold 10 stop a criminal from loading 10. The law makes less than no sense. Are Democrats really this stupid? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nuclearheli 40 Posted February 19, 2013 This issue may be a little more complicated than you think. If your primary residence is NJ and your guns are here you may have a problem bringing them into NY legally. The law states that you cannot use a firearm that does not conform to the individual states laws. For example, a person from Colorado cannot take an fully automatic firearm into NJ and use it just because it's legal in Colorado. You can transport guns but those requirements are different. If you were a NY resident you are legally allowed to own and maintain unaltered 10 round magazines after April 15th but you are prohibited from loading more than 7 rounds in that magazine. How that is going to be enforced is way beyond anyone's imagination. The law also allows NY residents to purchase and own 10 round magazines up until April 15th when it will become illegal to purchase a 10 round or more magazine in the state. So probably every NY resident with a gun is buying every 10 round magazine they can find before April 15th. The big "BUT" is you are technically a NJ resident (I assume) and therefore did not purchase the magazine under NY law and are not subject to NY law exemptions. I am no lawyer but you may find that bringing a 10 round magazine into NY from another state is the same as bringing a restricted firearm into another state and therefore considered illegal.

Pizza Bob 1,488 Posted February 28, 2013 You can do this with 10 round mags until April 15th 2013 and then you have to have the mags pinned to 7. Incorrect. No need to pin the mags. The mags can stay at the ten round capacity, but you are prohibited from loading more than 7 rounds unless you are at an incorproated range or participating in competition recognized by the NRA or IHMSA, in which case you can load 10 rounds. (re: http://www.governor.ny.gov/2013/gun-reforms-faq) Not sure where this leaves USPSA or IDPA, although I would imagine most of those competitions take place on an incorporated range, thus are legally exempt from the 7 round limit. Adios, Pizza Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adios, Pizza Bob Correct. The April 15, 2013 date references magazines sold after that date in the state will only hold seven rounds. (Right now, 10-round mags. are as scarce as hen's teeth in N.Y. It will still be legal to possess them. However, those with grandfathered 15, 20 & 30 round magazines are awfully upset.) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
