The loophole allows license-free ownership of "antique firearms" - defined as rifles that require the bullet and gunpowder to be loaded separately.



Littlejohn's rifle appears to fit the bill.

The NYPD learned about Littlejohn's $825 rifle when he left a receipt inside a Staples copy center, prompting a call to the cops.

First, the guy's an idiot for leaving the receipt behind.  Second, Bloomberg's on a witch hunt here and it will be amusing to watch him lose as the law is clearly against him.

People!  This is a MILITARY STYLE weapon!  How can you say that anyone should have a MILITARY weapon?  This rifle clearly belongs on the battlefield in the hands of the continental army, not in the hands of civilians!  Ban assault muskets now for the children!

Purchase and possession of "antique" long guns, revolvers and pistols are not regulated in NYS including NYC. If you posess all the components to fire an  "antique" pistol or revolver than you must register it on your NYS carry concealed pistol license.

It is not against the law to possess antique long guns in NYC. If there was the NYPD would have arrested him and seized the gun.

To investigate the iron pipeline of black powder rifles to NYC.  After all they are the 'preferred' weapon of gangbangers, yo.

The real kicker is this guy doesn't own powder, or bullets.  So Bloomturd is making a mountain of Title 18 abuses out of a club...

Some ratty little "raised in the Burbs Pussy" must have seen the receipt & called 911.
NYC is now full of little ratty assholes, I have never been as embarrassed as I am now to be a NYer.
As an example, Last night I was speaking on the phone Hands free in my Blue tooth equipped car & some little Pussy riding a bike next to me (Running lights & breaking all sorts of laws himself) told me to stop speaking on the cell phone while I drive, It is against the law in NYC, I Pointed out to him the fact that It was legal because it was hands free,
He said OH YEAH I do not believe you!!! I am going to call the police on you!, I told him to FUCK OFF.
The city is suddenly (The last 10 years or so their numbers have been growing) full of ratty little bastards!

I have to add they will all suck Barry the Kenyans dick on command & Love that scumbag Bloomburg!
Sickening

NY is great in some ways and terrible in other ways.

Good things? Very tolerant speeding laws, tolerant drug laws, good public schools, very good hospitals, uhhh, very sheltered economy as compared to the rest of the country, well paved roads, land that rapidly gains value ...

The bad things? Everything else.  Laws suck.  Outlook sucks.  Liberals suck.   1203129312321 state workers suck.  $80 court surcharges suck.  Obnoxious Obama voting hybrid driving douchebags.  Bent to the will of NYC constantly.  10000 other things.

This story is ridiculous, and truly representative of NYC.
