Second Amendment challenge to New York state stun gun ban

Second Amendment challenge to New York state stun gun ban


 

A law suit was filed that challenges New York's stun gun ban based on second amendment issues.

 

The filing is here:


 

The suit cites Heller, McDonald, and the more recent Caetano v. Massachusetts decision.

 

If NY falls then maybe NJ will be next.

I saw that but I thought that it was "only" the AG's statement which could change and had not been adopted by the NJSP. A court ruling would end the issue (at least for use in our homes). Has anyone tried to purchase one yet?

Until legislation is passed changing the current law, or case law is created following a trial, the law is in effect and enforceable.

 

An AGs opinion may carry weight when the state is deciding to prosecute, but it doesn't instantaneously rewrite laws.

 

I know Taser still will not sell to anyone in NJ except LE Agencies.

      My question is, can I travel with my hand gun, and ammo from NJ to Upstate NY where I want to shoot on my cousins 30 acres of private land?

      Judge Kavanaugh and the Second Amendment
      http://www.scotusblog.com/2018/07/judge-kavanaugh-and-the-second-amendment/
      "....Kennedy sided with his more conservative colleagues in finding a Second Amendment right to have a handgun in the home, and there is no reason to believe that Judge Brett Kavanaugh, if confirmed, is likely to disagree"
      "....We know from his recorded dissents from the denial of review that Thomas would vote to review and overturn some existing gun laws, and we know that Gorsuch – at least to some extent – agrees with him. But it takes four votes to grant review in a case, and we do not know whether Roberts and Alito also agree with Thomas but have opted not to say so publicly, or whether they instead are content to leave the court’s gun-rights jurisprudence as it is."
      ".... just this week, the 9th Circuit struck down Hawaii’s ban on carrying weapons openly outside of the home; even if the case goes to the full 9th Circuit, the losing party is almost certain to ask the Supreme Court to weigh in."

      Don Kates, the father of the modern Second Amendment revival, has died

      Hello Fellow Forum Members,
      This is my first posting. I just signed up this morning after being told that our March 28, 2015 meeting was being discussed in the forums.
      There is much to tell about what SAPPA is and what we are doing.  A visit to our web page which is being sponsored by www.tpath.org will give you much of what you need to know.  http://www.tpath.org/sappa-downloads.html
       
      Our staff has been working for almost two years on a new legal effort never before tried.  The legal members who have put this plan together are convinced that if the brief reaches the ultimate court, the unconstitutional gun laws not just here in NJ but across the country will be set to flame.
       
      We can't give you more information on the legal aspect, beyond what we have posted on the web page referenced above.  If you think after reading those documents that you or any of your friends  would like to participate and assist this effort please sign up here   http://www.tpath.org/sappa-sign-up-page.html   
       
      Please understand that there is no cost to joining our effort.  There will be no dues. We have thus far paid for all costs in preparing this SAPPA effort.  We intend to continue that.  All we need from those who wish to join is that your heart and soul is dedicated to the Bill of Rights in general and  specifically, the 2nd Amendment.  Your Party affiliation is of no concern to us. 
       
      We were told that our meeting of March 28, 2015 in central Jersey has been discussed in this forum.  We are pleased and proud to announce the meeting is set.  It will begin at 10:00AM and run about 2 hours (breakfast, brunch or lunch. Your choice).  The exact location is not being posted on the web pages, for obvious reasons.  If you are interested in attending you must sign up on the link above.  You will be contacted with an invitation via email with all the meeting information.
       
      Finally, if you do choose to come to the meeting, be prepared to be amazed at our game plan.  This plan has been broken into what we are calling the Three Phases of SAPPA.  The Phase I involved months of research and preparation of legal documents.  Phase II is comprised of 2 parts, the first of those two is complete, the upcoming meeting is the culmination of Part II of Phase II.  Phase III will be the legal action and the publicity effort.
       
      Remember that while you must be on our guest list to access the meeting you may bring other guests with you once you have been invited.  Please let us know how many.  The purpose for the guest list is two fold.  We need to know who those attending are, to the best we can, and also so we can have the proper amount of material prepared for the number of persons attending.
       
      Please feel free to contact me > [email protected]  or [email protected]
      Thanks
      Dwight (TPATH)

      Gun confiscation is one step closer in Connecticut. The mainstream media spins it as “one more chance” for non-compliant gun owners who failed to register their scary guns before the January 1 deadline.
       
      In reality, these letters - 106 to rifle owners, and 108 more to residents with standard capacity magazines – are the first step in the Connecticut State Police beginning to round up guns arbitrarily made illegal last year in that state. These guns include America’s favorite rifle, the AR-15 and magazines over 10 rounds, which include the standard capacity magazines made for that America’s favorite rifle.
       
      Failure to register is now a felony now in Connecticut.
       
      How long will it be before there is bloodshed over this law? We’re not sure, but we’re confident it is coming unless the law is rescinded or struck down by the courts.
       
      Mike Vanderboegh of the edgy Sipsey Street Irregulars released an open letter a couple of weeks ago, warning of what’s coming to Connecticut. The Connecticut State Police aren’t listening. Yet.
       
      We suspect attitudes may change after the first few rounds of bloodshed.
       
      As it stands right now, the best estimates are that 4% of newly-regulated guns and magazines in The Nutmeg State have been registered, leaving a hundred thousand or more newly classified potential felons looking over their shoulder.
       
      Editor’s note: We’re not going to link to the article because they are hiding most of the content behind a paywall and we won’t drive thousands of readers to their website.
       
      One more chance for gun owners
       
      Posted: Monday, February 24, 2014 3:35 pm | Updated: 3:36 pm, Mon Feb 24, 2014.
       
      Manchester, CT (Journal Inquirer) – When state officials decided to accept some gun registrations and magazine declarations that arrived after a Jan. 4 deadline, they also had to deal with those applications that didn’t make the cut.
       
      The state now holds signed and notarized letters saying those late applicants own rifles and magazines illegally.
       
      But rather than turn that information over to prosecutors, state officials are giving the gun owners a chance to get rid of the weapons and magazines.

      100 letters don't seem like much, but it might be their strategy to tackle a little at a time when it comes to the overall 100k non-compliant gun owners. I'm giving strong consideration to the idea of making future purchases outside state lines.

    • Boom! Today all Newton is in the high $3.60s. All hail Bidenomics! And all that Alaska land he just took off the list of oil prospects.
    • I have a like new (only zeroed) PSA Sabre KAC M110 Clone in 7.62x51mm. This is PSA's clone version of the infamous Knights Armament M110. Very high quality, excellent 2 stage trigger, 20" chrome lined barrel, adjustable gas block, and is NJ legal with a pinned Surefire SOCOM muzzle brake.  Radian Raptor charging handle and Radian ambi safety. Upper and lower are billet receivers compatible with all KAC SR-25 and LMT MWS/MARS-H pattern receivers.  Im no where close to being a long range shooter but ive been able to get 0.7 MOA out of it with 175gr federal gold medal match ammo and Im sure the rifle is capable of much better accuracy. Asking $1650 (which is a steal for what you get) at any FFL thats a reasonable distance from Jersey City. I can also ship but that would be on your dime.  Optic/bipod etc not included but can be purchased if interested. Vortex Razor Gen-II HD 3-18x50 FFP with the new EBR-7C MRAD illuminated reticle in a 1.54 reptilia mount. Id include the optic for another $1700. Happy to answer any questions or provide more pictures. Not interested in any trades. Thank you.
