Assault Weapons Ban

We hold that the core provisions of the New York and Connecticut laws prohibiting possession of semiautomatic assault weapons and large‐capacity magazines do not violate the Second Amendment, and that the challenged individual provisions are not void for vagueness. The particular provision of New York’s law regulating load limits, however, does not survive the requisite scrutiny. One further specific provision—Connecticut’s prohibition on the non‐semiautomatic Remington 7615—unconstitutionally infringes upon the Second Amendment right. Accordingly, we AFFIRM in part the judgment of the District Court for the District of Connecticut insofar as it upheld the prohibition of semiautomatic assault weapons and large‐capacity magazines, and REVERSE in part its holding with respect to the Remington 7615. With respect to Case 14-36, Document 330-1, 10/19/2015, 1621732, Page5 of 57 the judgment of the District Court for the Western District of New York, we REVERSE in part certain vagueness holdings, and we otherwise AFFIRM that judgment insofar as it upheld the prohibition of semiautomatic assault weapons and large‐capacity magazines and invalidated the load limit.

Revised assault weapon ban introduced

12 years ago Mainar15, assault weapons, assault weapons ban, awb, banned features, destroyed, detachable magazine, firearms, new york, registered, revised assault weapon ban introduced, turned in

On 2/27/09 Bill number A06294 was referred to codes.  This bill revises the current state assault weapon ban making it more strict.  Significant changes include making the list of banned features larger which includes a muzzle brake or a vertical front grip.  It defines assault weapons as having one of those features as opposed to one being allowed under the current ban.  Detachable magazine is defined as “…can be removed from the firearm without use of any tool including a bullet or ammunition cartridge.”  Any firearm classified as an assault weapon under the new law would require the gun to be rendered inoperable, turned in to law enforcement or registered in a database created by the law.

This bill is very similar to the ban that was introduced last year and died in the senate.  With the democratic control of the state government this one may pass.  Please write your representative and encorage them to oppose this bill.

Originally the intent was solely for a discussion forum, but it quickly developed into an extremely informative blog-based site, incorporating firearms news, reviews, and events.

4 years ago

On Monday, March 28, the Senate Codes Committee voted along party lines to defeat a mandatory storage bill that would have forced gun owners to lock up their firearms, thereby rendering those firearms useless in self-defense situations.  S.04291, sponsored by state Senator Liz Krueger (D-28), would have imposed felony penalties for failing to keep guns […]
