Check this one out guys, especially fellow New York residents. I've been buying gunparts from Numrich for years. I found a rifle I wanted to buy on Gunbroker (I didn't know it was Numrich selling) they were located in N.Y but wouldn't sell to N.Y FFL's.

When I sent a message to them why they won't sell to a N.Y resident this was thier response:

Dear Sir,

We are aware that firearms can be shipped to NY. However, it is our
company policy not to transfer any FFL items to NY. This policy is not
based on any particular State regs; it is strictly our company policy.
We apologize for any inconvenience. If you have any questions, you can
call us at any of the numbers listed below between 8am to 4pm EST,
Monday to Friday.

My reply:

Dear Sirs,
Thank you for your quick reply. I didn't realize that you were connected with
Gunparts Corp. that I've been dealing with for over 25 years. I'm going to make
sure to let all my friends and gunsmithing colleauges know your position on
selling firearms to N.Y residents. I will also post my e-mails on every gun
forum possible.
Thanks again for your time and quick reply.
 
Just a theory , but perhaps the NY Bloomberg anti-gun gestapo demands info or records on any sales to NY residents , and that is the best way to fight such stupid laws. Sarco did the same thing prior to moving gun sales to their new store across the river in PA and Ammoman won't ship or sell to NJ residents , even though they are in NJ.
 
It's been my experience that there is little problem buying or selling guns in NY. I can't say the same for CA. One of our forumers, it may have been ROBBT, told me not to confuse NY state with the city. I cannot understand why Numerich has the policy. It may have something to do with some regs in NYC that I don't know about.

Never had a problem with buying a gun from Sarco...FWIW
 
FYI as per my local dealer. Any dealer in NY or out of NY selling to someone in NY has to agree in writting to supply the state a complete copy of their bound book and 4473 if requested. My dealer did not like the idea of telling one state everything and they could then give the information away.

BUYING PARTS FROM NUMRICH IS LIKE BUYING A BOX OF CHOCOLATE, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL GET!

Maybe challenge on the commerce clause or on the 2nd as a defacto infirmgement on interstate commere/2nd amendment rights. (disclaimer-it's 10:22 Friday night, I'm on my third scotch and at present am the smartest man on the planet.)
 
I'd suggest buying parts somewhere else.

However, if it's the same parts for antiques that I'm buying, there isn't any other places other than Gun Parts Corp. :p

All joking aside, I started dealing with Jack First, and haven't looked back. :) Now, they don't have a website, but they are top notch and you aren't treated like a number, and they do make new parts and don't charge overcharge for them.

I wanted to get several of the new receiver extensions made for 1897 Winchesters, and Gun Parts Corp (numerich) was far too high. I found them somewhere else where I saved enough to buy three get one free.
 
Just a look at it from a different perspective, but it is a free country and companies that don't take federal subsidies can still make many of their own dicisions on how to conduct business. As part of that free market society, customers are free to shop where they like.

I have a business and there are certain areas in the country that I don't like doing business with. I prefer those customers go someplace else.
 
And thank God for that.

Especially during the summer

I suspect they are doing this in protest, same as Barret refusing to sell any rifles to California Law Enforcement. If that is the case IMO they should just pack up and move to a firearms friendly state.

Wish that S&W would do the same and would suggest Michigan as a new home. Fact is that lower Michigan currently has a huge surplus of very talented machinists looking for work and I have no doubt at all that Michigan would offer lots of incentives for them to make the move.

BTW, Union Machinists are now a thing of the past, people want work and don't care squat about whether a job is union or not.
