Of course, I am not a lawyer, I'm some random idiot on the internet. <br /><br />I'll bet you that the (1) the people who wrote this couldn't tell a moon clip from a Moon Pie - if you told them one was dessert, and (2) some idiot would arrest you and make you demonstrate to a judge that a moon clip isn't an ammunition feeding device, it's more like a custom box for dumping ammo into the gun. <br /><br />The only mentions of revolvers I saw in the law (using text search) was revolver-operated shotguns. Which I have to admit I've never heard of. <br /><br />SiGraybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00280583031339062059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-30039585447132679592013-01-16T10:00:22.472-05:002013-01-16T10:00:22.472-05:00A fun argument maybe but totally misses the point....A fun argument maybe but totally misses the point. <br /><br />ANY gun law is unconstitutional.<br /><br />We need to stay focused on the goal.

Don't know about the 608, but the 327/627 S&Ws can be loaded with either individual cartridges <i>or</i> use 8-round moon clips. <br /><br />So, here's the question: I do not expect the New York Brain Trust to have considered, or even be aware of, any of these firearms; that said, is it now illegal in NY state to load 8 rounds into your Model 627 revolver, and is an 8-round moon clip legally considered an "ammunition feeding device"?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-89028701417474124992013-01-15T23:53:32.485-05:002013-01-15T23:53:32.485-05:00Well, at least belt fed weapons are OK - the "...Well, at least belt fed weapons are OK - the "clip" only holds a single round.<br /><br />itorAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-25608311835186040402013-01-15T23:20:08.311-05:002013-01-15T23:20:08.311-05:00I'm not so sure.

Liberals always seem to be more violent and hot headed than most conservatives. <br /><br />It very well could be there are enough that will get their toes stepped on and get their eyes opened like they did when they got their first paycheck this year. Liberals are more likely to act first and think later so we could see things start unraveling there first.<br /><br />I know, wishful thinking but it could happen.<br /><br />Either way, the beginning of the end, one way or another, has begun.LordChamphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12666617513908734386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-42343364634311240982013-01-15T22:42:47.551-05:002013-01-15T22:42:47.551-05:00Unfortunately, I doubt much will come of this in a...Unfortunately, I doubt much will come of this in a state controlled and overly-populated by la-la progressives seeking "true social justice in Utopia." There will be a lot of screams of anguish and righteous betrayal, but civil disobedience will be minimal. Lawsuits will be filed and life will go on under the authoritarian rule of the governor who wants to be president, and a New York City Mayor who believes he is Emperor.David Forwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15838876992410760867noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-3295568893004921422013-01-15T22:09:21.391-05:002013-01-15T22:09:21.391-05:00Don't forget that owning three or more firearm...Don't forget that owning three or more firearms is a felony under this new law.
