Can’t see it for some reason damn iPad

lol sent it via picture to your phone sir

:slight_smile:

Is this as enraging to anyone else as it is to me?

the laws? Um, yeah…just a tad Wayne. I’ve slept maybe 10 hours this week at best.

Yep it is Wayne all jokes aside, it’s pretty scary to be honest, what else is coming?

Dude I was freaking out the past couple nights. Only way to sleep was to drink heavily. I’m legitimately scared we’re going to have to do something drastic in order to get our point across.

You and me both man.

Like I’ve said before, don’t comply with their stupid laws. You’d need 75% of the state to band together in order for it to make an impact as they’d see no one registering firearms. No way in hell would I ever throw my 75-round drum away, fuck, I don’t own anything that holds less than 7 rounds.

The only thing I plan on registering if it happens are two guns I leave the house with.

Not one part of this law that was passed in NY has an effect on preventing a tragic event from happening again. No research was done. It was pushed through as quick as possible so NY could be in the spotlight for bragging rights. “Look how safe we are/Look what we did all by ourselves”. You can have a 10 round mag, just don’t fully load it. Oh, ok. WTF?!

Analogy of the gun law

Hey guys, I was speaking with a non gun owner the other day, and it struck me how she just didn’t get why an assault weapons ban is such a big deal. Thought about it for a bit, and typed this up. Please tell me what you think, and feel free to spread it around if you think it will make a difference. Thanks.

Imagine that you’re a law abiding, sensible, responsible citizen (as I’m sure you are anyway). You own a nice car that you take care of, and have a significant amount of money invested in. You use your vehicle every day for lawful purposes, and you could not imagine life without it. You try to never break traffic laws, and you never drive while intoxicated. In fact, you’ve gone out of your way to ensure that if you’re going to be at a party or a bar where you may be drinking, you get a ride, carpool, or even take a cab ( at additional expense to yourself) to comply with the law. In every way you are a model citizen, and you have never made the mistake of drinking and getting behind the wheel.
One day, a man who is having marriage problems goes to a bar, drinks too much, and tries to drive himself home. On the way, he runs a red light and hits a minivan with a young family of five inside, on the way to their vacation home not too far away. No one survives the accident, including the drunk driver. The accident is highly publicized, with political leaders and the media calling for stricter laws to prevent this sort of thing in the future. The debate rages on for weeks, with each side becoming more and more vocal.
A few weeks later after you drive home from work, you turn on the news. The headline of the day is that the state legislature has passed a comprehensive new ban on drunk driving, even though it has already been banned for twenty years. The new law is much more restrictive, and according to the media, will save lives at only the cost of a few inconveniences.
The new law requires all cars manufactured to come with a built in blood alcohol content interlock, to ensure that the operator is sober before starting the car. In addition, all newly manufactured vehicles may not have fuel tanks over five gallons in size, and may not be capable of exceeding 55 miles per hour. This of course is to both reduce the severity of potential future incidents, and to reduce the ability of intoxicated drivers to flee from the police. The police and government of course do not have to abide by these arbitrary limits, and the politicians who passed this ban have specially licensed chauffeurs allowed to own performance vehicles with high capacity fuel tanks. The last portion of the ban on vehicles specifies a list of features that a vehicle may not have. These include traction control, spoilers, air scoops, dual exhausts, and eight cylinder engines.

“Well” you think, “This won’t affect me. I already own my vehicle, and I’m not planning on buying one for at least a couple of years.” You’re wrong. The lawmakers have thought of that too. All cars built before the law was enacted are required to have an interlock installed, at owner expense. The interlock must be inspected and registered with the state, and recertified every five years, with a fee each time. This applies to all vehicles, regardless of the owner’s driving history, and the fact that you’ve gone out of your way and spent extra money in the past to comply with the existing laws. Vehicles currently owned are also not allowed to be sold within the state. When you decide to dispose of your current vehicle, you must sell to an out of state buyer, or surrender it to state police to be destroyed, without compensation. You also may not give it to your child for their first vehicle. Your high capacity fuel tank is now banned. Even though the tank was the standard capacity when the vehicle was manufactured, if it now holds more than five gallons you must register it with the state. High capacity fuel tanks may no longer be filled with more than five gallons. If you are caught with more than five gallons of fuel in your tank, you face a misdemeanor charge. Fuel is also highly controlled under the new law. You no longer may go down to your local station and fill up anonymously. You now have to go to a government controlled fuel station, submit to a blood alcohol content test, and pay a fee every time you fuel your vehicle. In addition, every fuel sale is reported to the government. Any fuel purchases over five gallons are considered unusual, and may be investigated by the state government. Also, because this law went into effect today while you were at work, you were unknowingly in violation, because you had a full tank at the beginning of the day.
After you hear all this on the news, you think that they must have made a mistake. You, a responsible, taxpaying, law abiding driver, are being treated like a common criminal. You’ve gone out of your way to comply with the former DWI laws, but now they’re treating you as a scapegoat.

Welcome to the world of being a gun owner.

good post Adam.

So does anybody know what the deal with with buying stripped lowers and uppers right now??? Is it still like before where they are just considered parts or are we shit out of luck?

/\ I think you need to look at the section about resale. I am sure it uses verbiage such as “The sale of a (Gun) can not be …”

Then if Gun is not defined in this bill it is somewhere else in the law.

I assume the definition of a Gun, would be something along the lines of “A mechanical device capable of firing a bullet, that consists of a barrel to which the projectile will leave the device, consist of a triggering device,…”

Therefore, since the parts you are selling/buying are NOT capable of firing a round in their current condition at the time of sale, I would not define that as a Gun so it wont fall under the can not sell nonsense.

Great analogy.

Might have a m11 all tricked out with a bunch of 30 or 20 round clips too :wink: just throwing it out there if anyone is interested

May want to get rid of my beretta storm cx4 .45 with some goodies… Debating it if anyone is interested.

Lowers it seems you can’t buy, uppers i believe you can.

Speaking of which… I’d still like to buy an upper or lower or pretty much and god damn AR parts FFS.

Is it illegal to buy “parts” out of state? It may be illegal to bring them in this state??? but can you buy them out of state?

u would need a licence from that state… just my interpretation of the state laws around here
