OK to share? Safe act Question


Recommended Posts

The law would have made any firearm "transfer" without an FFL and a NICS check a felony.  Giving your gun to anyone else would've been considered a "transfer" not matter what the situation involved.

 

Give it time.  It will become law sooner or later.  The anti's never give up on any gun law.

Unfortunately, only a lawyer well versed in the SAFE Act should be trusted to tell you for sure.  Too much of it is subject to interpretation.  Fortunately, most county Sheriffs have said they won't enforce it.  The State Police seem to be going after people though.

If all parts of the NY Safe Act ever get up and running you have not seen anything yet. Just wait till the background check for ammo goes into effect and there is up to a $10 background check fee on a box of ammo.So if you lose ammo or it get stolen you have to file a police report. All I can say is every hunter needs to get out and vote in Nov and vote Cuomo out. If he gets re-elected I bet the back ground check for Ammo mysteriously gets up and running, and more anti-gun laws will be passed.

police report? how would they know that you just didn't go to the range and shoot it? I don't believe there are any provisions for serial numbered rounds.

Culvercreek, I am not joking, there is no serial number of rounds, but if they back ground check goes into effect, they will have a list of type,caliber and amount of ammo you have bought.I have printed and read the NY Safe Act over a lot. Go to this link and then to S51 1a & 1b.

Quick note.  Don't know how good a friend yours is but keep in the back of your mind a person with a Felony on his record can't legally own or even possess (hold) a firearm unless they obtained a relief from disabilities certificate from the Judge.

 

Sounds like a silly concern, but you put yourself at risk if you don't know and let someone use your guns.  And a Felony on a record can come from a few non violent convictions, dwi, other driving offenses that you may not know about.

 

Just something I run into occasionally when people ask to see or use my guns.
