Quoted: Requires persons possessing any firearm to hold a firearms safety certificate. Will this be a add on charge to every unlicensed person that gets caught with a pistol doing their drug deals, drive by shootings or robbing a store? |

Ugh the Senate bill has a ton of sponosors...I'm going to be busy on the phone tomorrow.
What about people who have owned guns for their whole lives? They now need take a 2 day class every 2 years? Or they come and confiscate your guns? What if I can't afford the class? What if there are no ranges anywhere near my home? I'm going to drive 4 hours every 2 years to pay for a class and a hotel room? How is this not akin to a poll tax? |

I just read the whole thing.
Are they going to dispose of the section of PL that prohibits non licensees from possessing a gun? Because there is no way as the proposed law is worded, you need to have the certificate to possess a gun, but you also cannot touch a gun unless you have a permit. Instructor runs the course, provides an affidavit to the participant, who then goes to the sheriff for a written test? Retired cops are exempt? THOSE are the mother***ers who need a class and then a remedial class more than anyone else. PURPOSE: The purpose of this act is: (1) to reduce the number of unintentional shootings by ensuring that gun owners know how to safely use and store firearms; and (2) to increase compliance with existing firearms laws by requiring gun owners to demonstrate knowledge of those laws. What statistics back up their expressed need for this? Where are the slew of unintentional shootings by lawful gun owners? |

This bill is physically impossible to comply with.
I'm no mathematician, but I've been crunching some numbers. Assuming 1.2m permit holders in NYS ( found in article )  Attached File |

I called all the sponsors. Left messages and spoke to some of the usual legislative directors. Told them this was a terribly ridiculous and pointless bill, and really actually an impossible bill to comply with.
I mean I've owned guns and had a carry permit for almost 20 years. I'm not going to start paying hundreds of dollars for a 2 day bullshit safety class every 2 god damn years. Let them try and confiscate my guns for not taking the class.

So what's this going to cost? 5 hour classroom course, $100.00? 2 hours, instructed live fire at range, $100.00? Ammo $40? Fee from Sheriff's office to take test $45-$50?
±$300.00 every two years, over and over again, just to keep your second amendment rights? |

Maybe a bit more, especially for the range rental and live fire. Also, what if there are no ranges anywhere near me? Or any that are willing to rent their private range out for this course? Is the state going to force them? Or just tell people they have to travel hours and hours to find a course And think about NYC handgun owners. I used to be one. Almost $500 to apply for the handgun license...another $300 for the long gun loncesne...now add this safety class for another what? $500 for NYC prices? So $1000 just to apply to own a handgun...1300 if you want a long gun too...then $500 every 2 years for the safety class...and $300 every 3 years to renew. Fucking crazy assholes. |
