For discussion purposes, how would anyone know if your AR is registered?
I suspect the NRA and NYSRPA will go into a federal court and ask for an injunction preventing the law’s enforcement while the court reviews challenges to it. Give the absolutely stupid way it is written, they are likely to get it.
Obviously there is not a guide book that tells one which battles should be fought and which should be avoided - everyone makes their own choices. So let me ask you this...if this is not one of those worth fighting, what would be an example of one that is?I wish them well, but it is not so simple.
Don't obey the registration law and you are asking for a world of hurt.
1) You will never be able to own a legal AR-15 type weapon in New York
2) You will not be able to shoot it in New York.
3) If possession of an unregistered gun is a felony, you could lose your 2nd Amendment rights in the entire USA forever.
4) If someone has a beef with you and knows what you are hiding under your bed or in your safe, they can ruin your life by ratting you out to the authorities. Persons in the middle of a nasty divorce or ex-spouses can get real nasty. Just ask the NJ cop whose wife knew he had an illegal Marlin 60 Assault Weapon. Yes, a Marlin 60. Conviction upheld on appeal.
It's all well and good to fight for freedom,
But sometimes it pays to pick your battles.
Guess we should've let George III oppress us?I wish them well, but it is not so simple.

What is a worthy battle? Taking up arms in defense of PETA and Starbucks?
Eww!Hey, that Starbucks iced green tea is some pretty good stuff.
I am a fan of the Mocha Frappuchino.

Not a coffee fan? Then Starbucks is just for you! I don't think coffee is even on the menu!
YIKES!
What board did I log on to by mistake???

"The price is too high;" and that is the story of how your inherent rights are stolen away.IMHO, this is not one of the battles worth fighting.
We are not talking a slap on the wrist for misdemeanor civil disobedience.
The people promulgating these laws would think nothing of throwing you in prison for 5 years, branding you a felon (thereby extinguishing your RTKBA), keeping you from your kids, and blacklisting you from any profession that requires a clean record.
I know I am not answering your question about what is worth fighting for, but that is not what is on the table.

Just like we did to Clinton in 1994?pistolero guy said:We may be seeing the start of a nation wide rebellion if Obama does something similar
