On July 23, 2020, S7763A passed the NYS senate. There was almost no debate, the bill was presented and voted on. Many "Republican" state senators voted in support of this bill including the incumbent of my district who campaigned on 2A during their first campaign.

This bill targets "Ghost gun" building, making any fabrication of an 80% lower into a firearm a felony.

The kicker? Theres an add on to the bill making it illegal to purchase and assemble a legal, serialized lower, into a fully functioning rifle by anyone other than a licensed gunsmith. Class C felony.

"Section 6 adds a new subdivision 8 to section 265.10 of the penal law to provide that any person other than a licensed gunsmith who assembles, manufactures, fabricates, builds or fits together the component parts of a firearm, rifle, shotgun is guilty of a Class C felony."

Doesnt matter that you passed NICS to aquire your lower. Illegal.

Fuck everyone in this state for being so lazy in local elections. It's in the Assembly now as A9903A. If there's anyone in NY, or hell just anyone who feels like fighting for 2A when none of the "big guys" will, please call your local assemblyman as I have and highlight the egregious overreach of this bill.

If this bill passes, Cuomo will sign it without second thought, limiting NYS residents to expensive NY-compliant rifle purchases.

I'd love to move to the free world but NY is my home. I've lived here my entire life. My whole family is here. We cant just run in the face of opposition to our way of life. We must fight back.
