Heller vs DC would like a word,,,,if only SCOTUS had the stones to stand behind their rulings.

Virtually the same law was passed in Maryland and was immediately challenged in court.

I doubt it.
Nothing appears capable of making SCOTUS do their damned job.

And the second that crap was signed the governor, and all legislators who voted for it, should have been arrested for infringement of rights under color of law. But they weren't since this administration is useless and only really pays lip service to the idea of "supporting the 2nd". Kind of like the old joke about England's police: "Stop! or I'll say 'Stop!' again!"

What would you suggest the court does? There is a reason Hamiliton (paraphrasing) said "the Court has judgment, not the sword."

Each day that passes, the father from the Founders we get.

One by one every gun will eventually be banned in this state. They will find some BS problem with just about any firearm so they can ban it.

The budget should be about the budget. Not ANYTHING else.

 

[Zerex]

Well she also banned plastic guns and Glock switches.

Most urban factories are out of state in China, and production would seem to accelerate. Thugs do not care....no licensing hassles.

Purchasing a used Glock should still be legal, maybe, as well as selling those already in inventory.

Talk about closing the door after the prisoners have escaped.

The state legislature, after issuing multiple ‘ extenders ‘ was desperate and determined to finally pass a fucking budget so when the slimeballs included the‘Glock ban’ in it , it slid through!
More costly legal action for 2A defenders against unconstitutional government acts .
Tyrannical governance front and center for the world to see.
SCOTUS and the Department of Justice where are you?

Nothing will happen until legislators start getting prosecuted for this stuff.

They have immunity to lawsuits, but not criminal charges for violating civil rights.

She banned any gun that is easily convertible to a machine gun. Good luck determining what that means.

Democrats are the enemy of freedom.

Democrats are the enemy of all things good.

NY Democrats are the party of over-taxation and ban monsters.

My neighbors (07FFL) "hobby" is converting guns to FA for research and development purposes. From what I have seen, a lot of guns can become FA.

Agreed, and imagine the domino effect if that precedent were to be set?

With a few servos and some high school level robotics I could turn a musket into full auto.

The rate of fire might be abysmal, but it would be full auto.

"If you hold down that button it will keep firing until the power and shot hoppers are empty...".

It is seriously tempting to design and build some sort of universal bolt action full auto converter.

But, I have too many projects already.

Still, that would be cool as hell.

Yes, MOST auto loading handguns can be converted to full auto. There are a few like Glock which are much easier, but the vast majority can be converted with enough modifications.
And this will become a thing eventually. The new law will be worded to cover ALL handguns that can be converted.

Anything that is easily converted to full auto is *already* considered a machine gun under federal law.

These state laws are just arbitrarily second guessing the ATF.

Instead of just rolling over Glock should be suing for being explicitly targeted by the states.

 

[Cooolone]

Been discussed here before...

SCOTUS can rule all they want, they have NO TEETH!!! What did they do to NY post Bruen when NY passed laws to basically thumb their legislative noses at the Nation's highest court! And NY will continue with its malfeasance towards 2A supporters and infringe upon their ability to exercise their right freely!!!

One of, but not the only reasons why I vacated NY!

Fuck NY!!!

 

[S&W Fan]

F U NY

 

[Zerex]

I do not see the many Glocks, already on NYS PP's--- for the last 25 years, being confiscated as MG's.

 

[camper4lyfe]

This shit pisses me off to no end. They know full well this wouldn’t fly on its own so they force it through on the budget. Same bullshit games every year. Laws should NEVER be attached to the budget. If they can’t stand on their own, they don’t belong in the books.

This is my point. It’s glocks today, Ar’s tomorrow, sig’s and all other striker fired pistols comes soon after.

Add any semi auto rifle to your list and you’re right on. Bolt action rifles and shotguns will be all that’s allowed. Pistols you can have revolvers and that’s all.

So you think all lowers and many other things for long guns is a no go, but now they will ignore pistols?

 

[Grimscale]

Bolt action rifles and shotguns will be all that’s allowed.

And probably damn few of them, also.
They're already trying to ban the dreaded .50 cal. When was the last time ANY crime was performed with a .50 Barrett? They know there are people out there who can use it the way it is supposed to be used and they are scared to death of that. So, instead of changing their anti-American behavior, they try to double down and ban the tools we have a right to.

Let them keep going. History has already shown what eventually happens to tyrants.

We're living through tomorrow's history book right now.

Its ambiguous enough where it means whatever they say it means.

Just like the unsafe act. “These things are illegal but we won’t tell you what they are until we arrest you”

That’s my fear, especially with who they are and their history.
