This would make me wonder how they would know for sure if it was grandfathered or not since there is no date stamping on surplus mags like he is charged with. A tapco mag sure it would be pretty obvious but a surplus mag no way to tell since most of them were made before 1994.

That I can't answer. Google the Middletown Record, it is in it's archives, maybe 6-8 months ago, in the town of Monticello, NY.

Maybe the way to get around the 7 round law and carry "high capacity

MONTICELLO - Police recovered an assault rifle and illegal magazines and charged a Monticello man with two felonies after responding Tuesday to a shots fired call off Park Avenue in the village.
Elliot Hernandez, 35, was charged with two counts of felony possession of a weapon, after police found him and two other men around 5:45 p.m. in a fenced property belonging to the water department. People had reported hearing several shots fired in the area.
Police recovered a .30 caliber semi-automatic assault weapon with a pistol grip, collapsing stock and a 10-round detachable magazine. It met the criteria for an illegal assault weapon, Acting Chief Mark Johnstone said. Police also recovered a second rifle with two illegal 30-round large capacity magazines chambered for .308 caliber bullets. Hernandez, Tieri Gilmore, 30, and Miguel Custodio, 28, were all charged with misdemeanor criminal trespass.
Hernandez was also charged with a violation in the discharge of a weapon. He was taken to the Sullivan County Jail on $3,000 cash bail.

If all I could carry was 7+1 the choice would be easy. A full size or semi-compact 1911 (possible alloy frame) with 3 seven round magazines in .45 ACP.

The only real "advantage" to 9mm or 40 S&W is increased magazine capacity. When you remove that advantage it's time to go big (45) or go home. A glock single stack works too for those not wanting (or allowed) to carry cocked and locked.

A revolver is a little too slow to reload under stress but makes an excellent NY reload.

To be honest, I'm not 100% sure how it was left. I think the BATFE called it at first an SBS than left it as a AOW. Not sure...but I don't think it meets the requirements to be a SBS. Now I'm curious....

I've carried a Glock 30 for years. Now I'm thinking I may go to a S&W 620 or 625.


And yes I know a bunch of you will suggest moving....... Not an option for many of us......

That's easy. Seven rounds then a slow reload!

Its history fits our current political climate as well.

“Those now possessing weapons and ammunition are at once to turn them over to the local police authority. Firearms and ammunition found in a Jew’s possession will be forfeited to the government without compensation.

Just move out of that GD state...I did purposely(well one of the top 2 reasons) because of their crap laws and crap taxes. I moved 1 state down and its all good at least so far. Have open carry(its even open carry no permit needed), CC, Castle Doctrine/law, less taxes...if the same thing happened here in PA id also move OUT of this state and find one that actually is 2A friendly.. 2A does not "rule" my life but the ability to protect my family and myself IS way,way up on the list.

Once the law goes in to effect you will only be allowed more then 7 rounds in a mag at a shooting range that is holding an NRA sanctioned event.

This new law is equally stupid and ineffective as this.....In the interest of public safety you will be allowed to have 10 beers in your fridge but you are only allowed to drink 7 of them.

We have the same level of stupidity here in California. Fire all the politicians and start over!

You might not want to answer, and I probably misread your post to begin with, but how do you carry in NY if you no longer live in NY?

I would think (and i could very well be wrong) that revolvers might not be included in this mess because they do not have a magazine?

If so I wonder what company could produce a 10 round .357 or .38. I would bet S&W could come up with something.
