7 round magazines

[handejector]

Do we really want to prove and establish that federal law trumps state law in this matter?

How long you been down on the river?
I regret to inform you that all hope for states rights had vanished from the earth by the late afternoon of July 3, 1863 at a stone wall.......and from their graves, the Federalists smiled.

It gives me hope to hear from LEOs both on this forum and from their own lips in my state that they consider this 7 round capacity to be ridiculus and they will not enforce it. It would give me more hope if the estimated 1.1 million owners of the banned military style rifles would speak with one voice and just say NO!

Obvious solution

Like Jews escaping Nazi Germany, it is time to leave New York.

I was forced to live in Plattsburgh, NY from 1970 to 1973 by the air force. Just one more reaseon not to go back.

This whole mess reminds me of TSA and air travel safety, not effective but the government did something.

I'm surprised those idiots in NY didn't make you plug one of the barrels in your derringer.

I know what you mean but I always just use the year 1865. I am disgusted at the number of people that have no idea what we are talking about. There were no more states rights. Larry

If the magazine capacity laws are even more draconian is it possible to pin the magazines to not accept more than the 7 rounds. Drill them and insert a limiting pin?

Better yet, use a long screw. Then if they change their minds again, you just adjust the screw

How much you want to bet those shmucks in NY asked for 7 (not 8,9 or 10) rounds since so many single stack 9s use 8 round mags...I bet they wanted to make all the existing mags for those unusable.

This number (7) was not picked at random. They can say they are not taking away your 2nd A rights but at the same time add a clause to make it impossible to possess most pistols. And I doubt simply carrying 7 rounds in a magazine designed for more will cut it, nor will modifying the magazine. The magazines "capacity" must be no more than 7.
