13BVET Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Is a background check still required on guns as old as the Springfields? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apoallo Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 you need to do a background check for all private sales for any firearm. below is a link to NYS government website for any FAQ on private sales and background checks http://www.governor.ny.gov/2013/private-sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkln Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Starting today you need check for any sale, NY SAFE act kicks in today with some provisions....I know it sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13BVET Posted March 16, 2013 Author Share Posted March 16, 2013 It seems like the damned thing just contradicts itself. Just called the Dutchess County Sheriff-they think it's total nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunter49 Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 If I want to give my 10 yr old grandson my 50 yr old Red Rider BB gun do we both need a background check? I do know he was caught with his hand in the cookie jar & taking money out of his piggy bank a few times! He cannot be trusted!

apoallo Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 (edited) read the link posted above. the only people exempt from background checks are spouse, children and step children. basically family members. its all in the link Edited March 16, 2013 by apoallo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Early Posted March 16, 2013 Share Posted March 16, 2013 Read with interest the comment about Dutchess Co. Sheriff......I suspect most county sherriffs will react the same way. It is the State Police, Andy' lackeys, that we must worry about. They have already pulled off one sting operation in the Buffalo area.
