In the Civil Rights law of NY State Code CVR, Article 2 Section 4 it says :...Right to keep and bear arms. A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms CANNOT be infringed. NY State has just violated our Civil Rights.

I'm waiting to hear them say they where wrong .

The National Rifle Association and our New York members are outraged at the draconian gun control bill that was rushed through the process late Monday evening, and we will be considering all possible legal challenges in the near future.

Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature orchestrated a secretive end-run around the legislative and democratic process and passed sweeping anti-gun measures with no committee hearings and no public input.

Hammered out in a backroom in Albany, S. 2230 was quickly drafted and released 20 minutes prior to the Senate vote. It passed as the clock ticked toward midnight.

This legislation lowers New York's arbitrary magazine capacity limit from ten rounds to seven. It also greatly expands the state's existing ban on commonly owned semi-automatic firearms, and will require New York gun owners to undergo background checks on ammunition purchases.

These gun control schemes have failed in the past and will have no impact on public safety and crime. Sadly, the New York Legislature gave no consideration to that reality. While lawmakers could have taken a step toward strengthening mental health reporting and focusing on criminals, they opted for trampling the rights of law-abiding gun owners in New York, and they did it under a veil of secrecy in the dark of night.

The legislature caved to the political demands of a Governor and helped fuel his personal political aspirations. New York lawmakers have ignored and excluded gun owners throughout this legislative process, but the NRA and our New York members remain committed to having a meaningful conversation about protecting our children and will speak frankly about the lawmakers who have failed to do so.

-NRA-

250K new members for the NRA during the past month, alone.

In 10 years New York will be the crime ridden cesspool that Chicago is now. This will come back to bite them in the butt if it's allowed to stand. kwg

what we're into is a culture clash, little doubt on that one.

the mega-city side of the equation generally sees guns as a negative.

we rural, country-side people see guns as an important Tradition.

the Mayors and their Police Chiefs are aligned one way, the Counties and the Sheriffs are aligned according to Traditions.

now that we have that peice of the puzzle settled, what should we do next?

Everyone from all the other states take note of what has happened here. Coumo is coming to town near you ------- he will be running for president in 2016. I did my part and contacted all the representatives and of course it made no difference.

I hope every gun and ammo manufacturer cancels all open orders they have for all of the NY Law Enforcement and refuse future purchases. Manufacturers should also require that their distributors do the same if they want to remain a distributor. Let the NY Law enforcement practice and defend the state with rocks.

Absofrickinlutely.

So is something like a 15 or 17 round 9mm pistol now illegal?

It should be Illegal just to live in New York

I keep hearing from the LEFT that 7 rounds is plenty to protect myself. Fine, let the cops, Secret Service, FBI, etc all go to 7 rounds as well. Magazine caps and Obama Care is all fine for us citizens, but not one politician has to adhere to these rules. They can go to hell.

Indeed. Enough rounds should be enough rounds, regardless of WHO is being shot at. Way too logical.

Don't bring logic into it!!

NY may officially be worse than CA now.

When the laws become oppressive, the law-abiding will break them.
