Did this change? We have a guy that does it on occasion and he just calls up the Sheriff’s office in case they get any calls County clerk was telling me it’s legal in nys if done in a safe manner. Don’t remember how that conversation started, but remember them saying it was legal.

See my response above.

I was told by someone in NY that he had the police at his home many times when neighbors complained about him firing his cannon on a Sunday afternoon. He said is was illegal to BLANK fire a cannon, which is why he loaded the barrel up with sawdust, and kept a log of when and how he fired it. Eventually the police gave up trying to charge him, and told anyone to complained from then on that he was doing it legally. Of course, there may be more or fewer restrictions based on local regs, amount of property, etc. but his assertion was that blank firing is illegal as it is in the same class as aerial fireworks which are illegal.

Cops do not always know the law.
