Too late for NY State! New laws went into effect today that require a 16-hour safety class and two hours of live-fire classes, as well as a social media background check for new CCW applicants as of 9/1/2022.

From what I've read, no curriculum for the 16-hour safety class was ever approved, it is still illegal for anyone to even handle a pistol at a range unless they already have a CCW, and the state has not provided county CCW issuing authorities any information on how a social media background check should be performed. So, basically "no CCW for you" for the immediate future here in NY State.....

"social media background check" - yeah, not 1984-like at all...
what's next? Social credits ala China?

FFS, "shall not be infringed" is pretty self-explanatory... oh well, I don't live in NY state and never will.

Nice wins for the second amendment fight in California. Both SB 918 and AB 1227 failed. Sneaky politicians snuck failed AB 1223 language into the latter bill, and they were caught. Serves them right.

One of these days a case will be brought to the SCOTUS regarding violation of the 2nd by these many end arounds in liberal states. And they will make a ruling that liberals around the country will decry as much as they did RoevWade. They will lose their minds when that the 2nd A actually meant and says isn't about hunting. Or if some people don't like icky guns they don't have to respect it.

You can see why I bought our little ol' tree farm on the lake in South Carolina to build our retirement Garage Mahal. The school/property taxes are under nine bucks per YEAR, and the day that we finally leave New Yorkistan in the rearview mirror forever can't come soon enough.....

Yeah I've been looking to relocate. It's just a matter of when, not if. Places I'm considering are FL(family is there), SC, GA. I hear you, it really CAN'T come soon enough.

FN FDE Friday for fun! My FDE SCAR 17s with Geiselle Super Scar trigger, VLTOR stock to make it look less like an Ugg boot, upgraded pistol grip, charging handle etc. I still need to get an extended quad rail forend to cover the barrel and get a light on it. Currently has a knockoff ACOG a guy at the range traded me a box of .300 blackout for hah. Always wanted to try one of these things out and honestly, it’s pretty lousy but out to 100 yards it’s hard to miss anyway. Just put it on for giggles here. Sort of like a $200k car with $99 tires on it.

Then FDE 509 Compact tactical with the usual mods.

That's worse than Canada, we don't have CCW but I can take anyone to the range and let them shoot any of my guns.

A .308 that is lighter than a lot of ARs and has about the same recoil.

Yes you need one.

Great video on the platform if you're interested:
