I shoot from the house all the time, the only person I have to deal with is the wife. She hates it when I knock down pictures.

I grew up in homes where we had indoor shooting traps in the basement (augmented ventilation too), self supervised minors shot inside the house thousands of different days. How times have changed.
Extremely vague article. Does the dude have a range in his house? Is this guy a convicted felon? Did the guy negligently shoot in his house and the rounds went through a wall, posing a threat for people or property outside?…

Maybe the dude was using his ramset to install some shelves?

They saying I can't shoot chucks and coyotes out my bedroom window? The bed isn't such a bad rest.
I grew up with a 70 foot range in the basement. I shot bows and BB / pellet guns all the time down there. Occasionally Dad would load wax bullets into shells with magnum primers in the .45 Colt and we would shoot that revolver down there. I have a bullet trap and archery targets in my basement now, but I only have a 36 foot range. Any time I shoot the .22 in the basement, I turn the stereo up a little to cover the sound just so some of my neighbors don't figure out what's going on.
The article didn't specify what he was doing. If he had a safe range in his basemeny, the authorities had no reason to mess with him.

Discharging a firearm within town limits? Who the fuck knows......what passes as "journalism" these days is severely lacking in the classic 5 W's.
Which law is that?
I believe its a DEC law.

Not a lot of info there. But if it was a case of a basement range, he better get his doorbell cam fixed. Nothing like the cops showing up hearing gunfire from within a house.

"
7. During any open season for deer, a person afield shall not possess
shotgun shells loaded with a slug or ball unless he holds a valid
license or permit to take deer or bear. "

There ya go, now you’re on the right track. I know the one you’re referencing now, but I was wondering where you were finding a law with a 300ft limit.NYS Open Legislation | NYSenate.gov

Which law states 300 feet as being the distance? And you’re also missing an important factor…it’s only illegal if you don’t have consent of the other dwelling owner to discharge a firearm within the proximity of their dwelling. So again, what law states 300ft from another dwelling?

That doesn't say you can't hunt with a rifle.
It basically just says if you are out in the field with a shotgun full of slugs it is prima facia evidence that you are hunting deer.
It's bullshit, but that's what it says.

Will 56 - Oh, I'm definitely waiting for a link to the law with the 300 ft rule as well. I think we will be waiting a while though.
SPAT - Many many laws written that way, especially in NYS. It's legal until a cop decides you are doing something they don't like, then it becomes illegal.

Yep, you can carry a shotgun full of 00 buckshot too, which would also be suitable for hunting deer, if it weren't illegal.what im saying is per that law you can carry a loaded rife afield with out a hunting license .. rifle is not listed .. just shotgun
Only slugs are forbidden.
