Hey, Im a soon to be AR-15 owner. I'd just like to say Hi to all the AR-15 owners from Long Island. I will be purchasing most likely a Bushmaster AR-15, unless I think otherwise. However, I was talking with a friend he said he could get me a pre-ban AR relatively around the same price as a post-ban Bushmaster, is he correct about this? Im not really sure, im very new to guns. I usually go and shoot my friends guns in calverton once a month. We go to T&T Gunnery a lot and there great people. If you know of any good ranges around Long Island let me know, I haven't really heard of any other ranges besides Calverton. Regards, TheZ |

What's the legality of that though? If you purchase a complete rifle (or just the receiver) in PA and drive through NJ then NY (or worse NYC) just to get back to the Island. If you get pulled over you may get jammed. Interstate transportation of firearms or some crap like that... Just a thought |

The rifle would have to be purchased legally in Pa. then transported to Long Island. I travel with my Preban all the time. Check with the legal experts on this board but I believe the rule is basically, if you are legally permitted to own the firearm, and you have it secured properly in your vehicle, locked in a seperate compartment etc. You are then permitted to transport said firearm to a location that it is also legal to own it. Or you could just have it shipped. I picked up my first preban in Pa. drove up to do the paperwork and bring it back to L.I. Im sure someone will check in if I missed any pertinent info. |
