Agreed, the new normal... and too many don't mind being the frog.Give it a year, and it will become "normal".
Just like the semi-auto purchase requirement of having a permit.
When the semi-auto purchase requirement went into place, a few people were in an uproar. Now it's forgotten for the most part.
Then the current ammo registration information. People didn't like that.
But now it's "normal".
Don't worry, this is the new "normal" coming up in a few days....
I did.
I took another look at the legislation passed and the wording. I need to finish registering to see IF there is anything up on the site yet. I see some real potential issues, not sure if they will materialize. I will reitrate, I am impressed at how blatent the wording is as to the purpose. A database. In other words, a registry. I see that as a hill.
What I am seeing as to reactions is there are a number of:
totally clueless, no idea whatsoever of the newest changes
the ones that grouse a bit but, go along with "oh well"
the majority are pissed and do not know what to REALLY do
a large number that have dropped out and will never buy anything gun related in this state again
and a few misc.
I can almost laugh at those that still say, "They can't do that".
Actually, there is. We did it once. When men were men and cared more about future generations than themselves in the here and now
100%. Unfortunately, the reality is ( as @PA Guns & Ammo eloquently pointed out ) as long as this state is run by liberal democrats anything goes no matter what the Supreme Court says. And if you don't like it get the fuck out of NY or shut the hell up and bend over and take it because nothing will change - it's the immovable liberal agenda - object. As I have mentioned in the past, it's the incremental loss of our constitutional liberties ultimately until the "end game" is accomplished. It's like getting pecked to death by chickens.
Yeah, well I don't see the Gen Z's and the Millennials dropping their iPhones or turning off America's Got Talent or stopping their Tweets or stop monitoring which skimpy bathing suit Kim Kardashien is rocking in Turks and Cacaos long enough to give a shit. Distraction is a potent weapon.
That's what happens when all the legal means of relief are blocked, especially the justice (just-us) system.
....or he owns multiple bolt action .223's and shoots competitively / regularly.
A lot of gun owners have rifles using 223 that are bolt action and not semi-auto. Especially, varmint rifles. I get your point though - stay off the radar whenever possible.
Truly no offense to you but this hiding mentality doesn't do shit. Is that freedom? Buy what you need. Let them come and you raise holy hell. I'm not spending my days hiding from these shit bags. Come after us. Get that shit on video. Do whatever you can to get it out there. I'm gonna buy a gun after the 13th just to see what shit they try and pull. Hiding does absolutely nothing for our rights. I'm glad our forefathers didn't hide from the British. I fucking hate tea.
No offense taken. And Long Island Ice Tea isn't too bad - I had 5 of those one night in college and found myself the next morning with one contact lens and someone else's jacket on.
New York’s New Background Check SystemOn Friday, NSSF® had a call with the Deputy Secretary for Public Safety concerning New York state becoming a point of contact state and completely changing the process retailers have become accustomed to. This call follows a webinar put on by the New York State Police earlier in the month describing the transition to a point of contact state. While there are many questions still outstanding, NSSF is doing their best to act as an intermediary during these challenging times for retailers. Unfortunately, the process has been done without input from the firearm industry and will most likely cause severe impacts to your daily business. |

Sorry , I couldn’t get this to link from my email. I received this from NSSF this afternoon.
New York’s New Background Check System
On Friday, NSSF® had a call with the Deputy Secretary for Public Safety concerning New York state becoming a point of contact state and completely changing the process retailers have become accustomed to. This call follows a webinar put on by the New York State Police earlier in the month describing the transition to a point of contact state. While there are many questions still outstanding, NSSF is doing their best to act as an intermediary during these challenging times for retailers. Unfortunately, the process has been done without input from the firearm industry and will most likely cause severe impacts to your daily business.
NSSF Working to Get Answers
Our goal is to try to continue to educate retailers about the impending transition because at this point, we have learned that the communication from the state has not been the greatest. It has also come to our attention that FBI NICS has been sending emails to retailers to inform them of the changes and the steps that retailers need to take to register with the NYSP in order to run firearm and ammunition background checks.
The NYSP have explained to NSSF that there will be a more extensive document guiding you through the process that will be ready by the end of this week – we will send it along to members when we receive it.
Below is the text of New York’s Letter to Dealers concerning the registration process, which you should have hopefully already received. We would like to ask all retailers to take the time to follow the process and register your store and employees so that you will not experience any self-imposed delays on September 13th.
NSSF continues to encourage New York state to make sure they have contingency plans in place for the inevitable delays and impacts to your business that will most likely occur with the new changes. While the state police is your ultimate authority, please let NSSF know of any issues that go unanswered so that we may try to assist you. Please contact us with these issues.
NSSF will continue to monitor the situation and the impending roll out and will continue to keep our industry members informed.

I bought one last night. It will be here first part of next week. Just ahead of the NYSP cluster fuck.
Waiting for that guy in every thread who has everything and will remain unaffected for the next 100 years. They just don't get it.
You could buy any rifle before last year so…
At the point I’m at I have nearly everything I’ll ever need for as long as I’m in NYS but I get it. I’m not happy about it but I refuse to do a background check to buy ammo and I refuse to get the semi auto rifle permit. I have all the rifles I will ever need and I travel enough out of state so I will buy my ammo there. It’s sucks but that’s what I have to do.
Few months ago I moved from Oswego County to Onondaga County. I had my carry permit for Oswego Co. I swapped it in for the Onondaga County permit after moving here. Onondaga County included the auto rifle on my permit. Permit reads "pistol/semi-auto rifle license is hereby granted". I didn't have the auto-rifle on my Oswego County permit, and didn't ask for it when I got my Onondaga County permit. When the officer handed me my Onon Co permit, he pointed out the auto-rifle endorsement to me. I thought it odd that there was no request on my part or any discussion about it. I just said thank you and out the door I went.
According to some, no.
