I thought Glock discontinued all Gen 5 production and shifted to the Gen V series to be "compliant" with states that didn't want slides compatible with a "switch?"
They have the option to replace the OEM trigger at GLOCK with a NYS legal trigger. They have been installing it for NYS Probation and Court Officers already. It’s been available and they are postured to provide while we wait for this new law to be rescinded. I’ll get the info for that.
That is certainly interesting. Why exactly would probation or a court officer need a NY legal trigger though? Are they not both sworn officers with dept issued firearms and do not have to abide by State restrictions?
Some departments want the NYS legal trigger at 8.5-10 lbs if I remember correctly because they want their officers to be less accurate and shoot bystanders, not really but the want to be able to say look we have heavier triggers as a way to stop negligent shootings.
Oh you’re looking for specifics and clarity in a NYS legislature written law? Yes VERY unclear for FFLs to comply, Zero guidance on State Police resource page. In the quotes I’ve been given before “You’ll need to retain a lawyer to get an answer to that question. But what ever you do you have full liability. Thank you for calling the Safe Act Desk.”
Should be good by any of the interpretations.
Glock 48 has this style trigger so…
The NYPD trigger was 12lb but I believe they discontinued its use a couple years ago. Is there an "inbetween" trigger?
Owned prior is the important part of the words. If PURCHASED prior you own it, it can be transferred to your permit.
Call NYS Gun-Laws or email them. I did and the answer given was May 31, 2027.
I haven’t read the law so I wasn’t sure if there was a pre a clause and he’s not sure when the date goes into effect or when he will get it added to his permit.
May 27 is the start date. The way its written a previously possessed pistol can be transferred once after that
How would they ever track that? This is stupid and worse than I thought.
PREACH!!!! Take part in conservative dialogues! Let Them know your opinion!!
That’s how I ended up with some of my guns. The safe act woke me up and got me involved.
That's great but try finding a new or even used "banned" model as Glock has stopped making them a while ago. Even the new V model uses the same transfer bar with the exception that they are not accessible like the old ones. That is until someone figures out how to circumvent that, then they will be banned too. I personally don't like Glock but it just another steppingstone for more idiotic gun laws and that is what has me pissed.
It was passed attach to the budget for a reason. They don’t want your opinion and they don’t take it under advisement anyway. I have emailed my representatives and those in nearby districts and I do not get a response. Not a word outside of we received your email.
There will be a work around for it soon as more states are doing this. There shouldn’t have to be a work around though.
I wholeheartedly agree but how many gun owners are in this state that are simply too damn lazy to try. 10,000, half a million how many of us are there? Seems like every other weird ass group greases the squeaky wheel and gets things done. All we can do is face the fact that most gun owners like to bitch or simply can't or won't be bothered to act. If we all did as you and I do it "may" be possible to be heard and taken seriously. I got permission to hang a sign in my FFL's shop that gives names and phone numbers along with email addresses so that when the inevitable bitching starts, we can just point to the sign. Tired of hearing it!
Yea, we always have to play defense because most just grin and bear it when we shouldn't have to in the first place. Just more ways of banning certain firearms without actually banning them.
Your reps both probably support this as mine do as well. Most of our elected elite class support this. Probably even half of the ones with an R in front of their names.I've reached out to both my NY legislation rep and senator. I'll let you know if either bothers to reply
