Waxahachie Kid #17017 L Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Was watching an interview, last night. It seems that in New York City, if you are not a resident, it is a felony to even touch a firearm, in a gun shop/sporting goods store. The gun shop owner said he has to check your I.D., and if you are not a resident, he cannot allow you to even touch a firearm, much less pick one up to look it over. I had no earthy idea. There just aren't any adequate words to describe such idiocy. Certainly no words that don't involve a lot of profanity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Sounds like California. And they have done SO MUCH to curb crime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas Joker Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Look up Illinois firearm owner ID card. Can't even buy ammo without one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Gauntlet , SASS 60619 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 If I was a visitor to NY, I wouldn't bother to look for a gun store, so it'd be a really theoretical problem. I have been to NY a few times, and I never thought to look for a gun store... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Rich Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 SC was that way years ago. Could not handle handguns unless you were a resident. kR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I am planning to move to the United States in 621 days. Hopefully there won’t be a border fence up and the gestapo hasn’t been fully formed yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may have to sneak out and declare refugee status. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compared too NYC, it's as if there are vending machines on every corner dispensing arms...... now if only there were ones that had primers!

A local FFL was working on that for ammo years ago. It would scan your id and take a thumb print to match against an on file print. Now that the 4473 can be efiled, is it possible to do with arms?

You will be asked whether you prefer a real meal or a vegetarian meal. You will be asked "What does the "AR" stand for in AR-15"? You will be asked how to achieve gun control. And maybe some other pertinent questions. ----- ANSWER WISELY!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
