While visiting my parents in the Hudson Valley (Kingston area) I stopped by a few places to find ammo. Gander mountain had nothing, so I went to Dicks. I know people on the forums don't like DSG, but they had plenty of ammo (I got 9, 40 and 45) all at reasonable prices.

I presented them with my DL and FID. And the guy had no idea how to process it. He said he needed a pistol permit. I explained that in Nj, a permit is only purchase a pistol while the FID allows is to buy long guns and pistol ammo.

Again, he said he needed a pistol permit.

 

I pulled out my Florida CCW, and then gives me the ammo.

 

What a circus. Good thing he allowed the transaction to go ahead.

Wait until next year when SAFE really gets to screw crap up.

Another worker approached me after and told me to tell him next time that I have a carbine that shoots whatever caliber I need.

Don't buy anything firearms related in NY. Screw them

12.99 for 9mm. Not passing on that

you're lucky that you got the ammo at all, even with a Florida CCW..  my father lives in Rochester and he said that the ONLY identification they accept is a NEW YORK permit (considering that NY does not recognize other CCW's, that makes sense).  SAFE act going into effect on 1/1 will make it even worse

It's going to be interesting to see how they enforce an ammo purchase background check, once that element of the SAFE act goes into effect. It's my understanding that NICS, by law, can only be used for firearms purchases, which means that NY is going to have to set-up their own infrastructure and software for ammo background checks - a costly and time consuming endeavor. If they are successful, maybe the federal government could hire NY's IT people to fix the Obamacare website

 

Adios,

Unless I'm mistaken, and the courts are successful, SAFE in NY will be there to stay. And it's April 15, 2014 to register your "assault weapon" or render it inoperable or sell it.

Not to hijack, what is the SAFE act going to do? Yes I know how have I not heard, but when googling I didn't see anything mentioned with guns.

Too much to go into - hard enough dealing with NJ's laws. This should answer any questions you may have...

Suck A$$ For Everyone

Even in NJ I never understood the differentiation in sales policies between "handgun ammo" and other ammo.  I'm having a hard time thinking of a traditionally handgun caliber that doesn't have some rifle out there that fires it.

The SAFE Act is going to make gun-owning New Yorker's miserable. Not to mention anyone passing through or trying to buy ammunition.

You probably should have passed.  The state SCREWED the NY gun owners; NY state will not get another cent of my tax money.  DSG screwed Troy and many gun owners after Sandy Hook; they too will not see another cent from me.

 

It would be great if gun owners(of NJ and NY at least) actually stuck together on boycotts.  But hey that's why these state will never become a pro-gun states, no unity.
