so my sks had to go, s\a charles daly shotgun had to go, and bolt action .22 had to go too, since it uses detachable mags, and no 5 round mags are made for it.
the only rifle i have left is marlin 1894m which i had to take to a gunsmith to alter tubular mag to accept 4 rounds. even thou law n paper says 5 rounds, a lady on the phone in shotgun and rifle section said 5 rounds including one in the chamber. go figure.
so i had to sell 3 guns, but i,m not giving up, my plan is to get stoeger condor outback o\u, and a bolt action rifle in 3006, or 308. just have to make sure it takes only 4 rounds. i just have to go to rifle\shotgun section, and pick up special forms, without them i can't buy rifle or shotgun.
nyc is getting closer to australia, and uk in terms of firearm laws, too close. at this point i really question usefulness of nra, in nyc, so far i have not seen laws get any less restictive, it is quite the opposite.
