Excuse my ignorance please. Are revolvers subject to the seven round limitation? Would an eight shot revolver be no good in our wonderful state? Thanks in advance.

1st, there is no 7 round limit on guns in this state it is 10 round magazine limit (shotguns have a different limit, and rimfire tube fed rifles also have a different limit) but for simplicity we will talk about magazine capacity limits of NY and that limit is 10 rounds.
2nd revolvers are not semiautomatic and therefore don't fall under the assaulty thing, just the good ol Sullivan act of 1911 and so on

Shotguns don't have a different limit.
Shotguns are 7 not 10

Citation?
(And it's the magazines that are limited in this respect, not the firearms.)
He is talking about the 265 definition of an “AW“ shotgun
b) a semiautomatic shotgun that has at least one of the following
characteristics:
(i) a folding or telescoping stock;
(ii) a thumbhole stock;
(iii) a second handgrip or a protruding grip that can be held by the
non-trigger hand;
(iv) a fixed magazine capacity in excess of seven rounds;
(v) an ability to accept a detachable magazine;
I said Shotguns were limited not a magazine
***edit*** and to be technical, still is considered a magazine since the actual term is tubular magazine ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sorry- should have specified New York City. I googled for an hour this morning and couldn't figure out a damn thing.

This indicates 10 (but only loading 7 for some reason). However, I have also seen that 7 is the new limit for capacity unless grandfathered at 10. Anything above 10 is illegal.

A semi auto sg that can accept more than 7 rounds is considered an AW by governor stinky finger.
The is no limit of 7 for shotgun magazines however. This is an important distinction.

The 7 thing was thrown out.
Weird I never said Shotgun magazines.. just Shotguns,
Wow would you look at that it's almost as if
Hahaha I'm starting to understand why they called it the PENAL code!
Because with every discussion it comes UP, people whip out their members to measure them...
Come on!
Shall we talk about how you're NEVER EVER going to be stopped and searched for magazine capacity in your handgun! How it would be impossible with a handgun to provide probable cause for such a search!
So let's stop talking capacity BS! Lmao!
Now that said... If you're capacity exceeds State limits and you get into a jam, it's just something they'll tack on... That's it, nothing more!
So move on... Carry on, lol

And if this was a thread about the AWB, you'd be correct.
As it is about the LCAFD round limit, you are not.
For the reason shown above. You can have a shotgun with a 10 round magazine.
How back to confusing the AWB again.
The LCAFD says nothing of "shotgun magazines limited to 7."
No, it doesn't say it. You have to look at it.
And when you do, you'll see what makes something an AW. What you won't see is "there are different limits for shotguns", because there is no distinction between shotgun magazines and other magazines. A fixed magazine capacity over 7 is an evil feature on a semi auto shotgun. It's not a feature on a pump action, and the limit is 10 as with any other magazine.
So I can go to the local gun store and pick up a Mossberg 930 JM Pro Series here in NY
I have no idea. Is it an AW?
It's a shotgun
