that and other stuff also. A seven shot limit basically bans all semi auto handguns which includes relic handguns that are 50 to 100 years old like a Luger or Czech .32 CZ pocket pistol. These guns were made to hold 8 shots. THERE NO SUCH THING AS MAGAZINES FOR THEM HOLDING LESS.

So basically the only handgun you'll be able to buy or own is a revolver.


Yeah, "we aren't going to trample the 2nd amendment for citizens" my azz. Glad I don't live there or I'd be getting ready to move out. Hope gun manufactures in NY move out so the anti's in NY can pay for the unemployment checks.

Meanwhile all the criminals and gangs will have the semi/full autos with giant clips and Liberals will jump up and down at any attempt to get them off the streets.

What a complete joke, I really feel for the law abiding citizens of NY.

It still wouldn't have prevented what happened. Nothing in that law addressed how the Newtown shooting came about.

3 less bullets and that will fix everything ?

The funny thing is, I don't think it's actually a Ban. I believe it simply prohibits the sale of such firearms from this point forward.

Anyone who already owns these firearms in NY would be excluded right?

Here's the real problem with this thinking out there that new laws will help. I asked this before and never got a reply. When was the last time someone wanted to shoot someone and decided not to because they didn't want to get caught with an illegal weapon? Has it EVER happened?

Something good and "for the people" isn't passed in the middle of the night.

Might as well limit magazines to 7 rounds in all video games.
