    New York Judge Issues Red Flag-Style Gun Confiscation a Full Month Before the Law Takes Effect

    This effect is VERY common (no I won't discuss what has led me to this conclusion). The fact that they went after the librarian near Buffalo for his prescription history, all of the erroneous 9.46 referrals, this case and all that are bound to follow when the red flag law takes effect... I would...

    Does anyone know what strain relief/hoods are used on the camera end of the ethernet line? I probably just don't know the right search term but I can't find anything that has that locking mechanism.

    New York Judge Issues Red Flag-Style Gun Confiscation a Full Month Before the Law Takes Effect

    The connection to the Red Flag law is that it will be a very similar process. Once the law goes into effect, it won't be just pissed of officials or good-ol-boys club members that can bring the state's wrath down upon you. Police, DAs, school administrators, teachers or coaches, family members...

    Fewer American Kids Die in States With Tougher Gun Laws, According to This New Study

    "In all, there were 21,241 deaths among children and young adults under the age of 21 during the five-year period. The majority of the deaths, 62%, were assaults, followed by suicides. Most occurred among males, and two-thirds were aged 18 to 21 years old." So basically they lumped young adult...

    Buttigieg: it's the INEFFECTIVE SIGNS at fault.

    YouTube Banned Me For “Hate Speech”

    Normally I'd agree Darth. The monkey wrench is that the internet has become the primary repository of public discourse.

    Very good points. I need to think about it a bit more but here's my initial reaction. Do they really need unfettered ban ability?

    Unless it's changed in the last ten years, fishing and small game are separate licenses (Sportsman is a package that cover fishing small and large game). So there's already a codified distinction between the two. They don't call them 80%s. The wording would cover 1% receivers. Here's the...

    Yep, subsonic is right. Theoretically, you could take your gun apart to clean it, but putting it back together would be a felony. ETA: It would also make possession of 80% guns that you completed prior to passage a felony unless you register AND serialize it. It's retroactive. In addition, it...

    So what's the deal with C&R Colt SP1s?

    From what I've seen, legislation is much more specific when defining static dates. Either they call them out specifically or the say things like '90th day after it shall have become a law.' On top of that, C&R eligibility is rolling from a federal perspective.

    Yeah, just drill it. Mag catches and buttons aren't very expensive and are very easy to install. Don't worry too much if you screw it up. Shouldn't be an issue unless you're really ham-fisted but you want to be careful not to get your receiver.
