    Gun Shop Sued by NY AG

    I have been into Bowman's a few times, I can tell everyone here that he has always had cameras in his shop. Heck when the 1st break in accrued they used camera footage of the thieves on the news from his cameras, the thieves also broke into 3 or 4 other FFL's in Jefferson and St.lawrence...

    Gun Shop Sued by NY AG

    Bowman has a place in Florida, I really wouldn't be that shocked if he said fuck it and moved everything to Florida.

    Folding pocket knives

    My grandfather created a jig to hold a knife at certain angles while using a stone, I can imagine that there are some companies out that have something similar now. Just a thought.

    Folding pocket knives

    I have the Work Sharp knife sharpener and like GTN, I don't like it. It is very easy to ruin a knife, I made the mistake of sharpening a knife too close to the tip of the blade and the WS grabbed it and put so many grinding gouges on it. I let my father borrow it once and he told me he thought...

    Need shirt recommendations for CCW.

    I also agree with this, it all depends on the person's shape, but there are also holsters out that sit low in the beltline that make printing almost non-existent.

    Need shirt recommendations for CCW.

    I found the perfect shirt at Tractor Supply of all places. I went back to get more, and they were sold out. It's a simple button up. I know that doesn't help at all really but maybe gives ideas to look there?? I'd 2nd Duluth Trading clothing, they're pricey but WELL worth it.

    Palmetto State Armory shipping uppers to NYS again, 2-5-2025

    Last year I wanted to get one of their 10mm's before I moved. But they wouldn't ship a 1911 to NY. I even called them and asked why. The lady's response " We are not able to send firearms to where they are not legal to own" I told her, but it's a 1911, with an 8 round mag, it is in fact legal...

    State Police investigate a death in the village a Massena

    Massena is a weird town The only reason it's not a ghost town yet is because of the reservation. A friend of mine is an EMT there, and hates it, the town is overrun by drugs.

    Article 926A of FOPA

    My advice, I am not a lawyer and never will claim to be. Tell your friend to not cheap out, skip flying into/out of a state that hates firearms. Yea it's more expensive to fly elsewhere but it's not worth cheaping out and potentially getting hassled over or worse.... arrested over.

    Legal to transfer guns for safe keeping?

    As others that have left NY have stated, what's stopping the OP from just taking them when the time is right? Also I agree with Cavalry, if something happened to the friend, is there anything set in place from stopping friend's family from taking your firearms to an FFL and selling them, as...

    S&W M&P Compact Carry Comp Range Report

    I think I am the odd one out, I have a newer ez9 and don't like it. I wish I had more hands on time with it before I bought it I would have found out that it doesn't really fit me. I absolutely love the idea of the reduced recoil, easy slide/mag but the firearm just feels weird in my hands.

    Hey, remember when I told ya that Tyler Technologies (a Third Party Contractor for the NYSP doing Background Checks) could be hacked and Data spilled?

    No reason to be sorry As I said, that is the way I read it, but then it states Capanna's criticism is grounded in legal concern under the SAFE act, so I don't know. Quote below is direct off the site, I didn't type each in capitalized letters " Last week, federally licensed firearms dealers...

    Hey, remember when I told ya that Tyler Technologies (a Third Party Contractor for the NYSP doing Background Checks) could be hacked and Data spilled?

    The way I read the article, SP is telling FFL's to do 2 sales with one BGC, which the way the BGC law was written, is not okay to do.

    Interpretation of the law ( carry conceal)

    My 2 cents Pay the 150 and talk to an actual person that knows the laws. Also, I believe that you can not conceal carry through out the state with just a premise/home permit, as that is only good on your premise( property) I could be wrong, Again, my 2 cents, pay the 150 and ask someone.

    Amazon Assisted Knife Restricted?

    I found this out a while ago when I wanted a knife I saw a review on, perfectly legal to have in NY, nothing about it was against NY standards but Amazon wouldn't ship it. They might be going with the " It's easier to just not ship things there" mindset
