If you're not subscribed to "The Truth About Guns" (TTAG) then you're missing out. Go there to read it all but a tidbit....
Under New York’s Orwellian-monikered SAFE Act, having a magazine with a capacity of more than a 10 rounds is now defined as criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree, a “Class D Violent Felony.” So soon, having a 13-round magazine stashed in the back of a drawer or a 10-rounder downloaded to only eight rounds rather than the legal limit of seven and you’re pinched. How does this grave offense against society compare with other crimes in the Empire State? Here’s a sample of similar hijinks that will also get you tagged with a class D violent felony wrap . . .
- Rape in the Second Degree – § 130.30
- Course of sexual conduct against a child in the second degree - § 130.80
- Reckless assault of a child – § 120.02
Which means that 13-round mag or a too-full ten-rounder in your possession will be a more serious offense than these simple Class D felonies (a step less serious that the Class D Violent variety):
- Aggravated sexual abuse in the third degree - § 130.66
- A.Promoting an obscene sexual performance by a child - § 263.10
- B. Promoting a sexual performance by a child - § 263.15
- C. Reckless endangerment in the first degree - § 120.25
- D. Vehicular manslaughter in the second degree - § 125.12
New York. Truly the land of insanity.
I am for gun control but this is Bullshit
