    Need NYC Lawyer ASAP

    Do you have a citation for this assertion? I just checked the NYC Administrative Code online and Sec. 10-133(b) still lists a four inch blade length limit. I also searched the NYC City Council site for local law changes pertaining to 10-133 for the past two years or so and didn't see the...

    Need NYC Lawyer ASAP

    New York City has had for some time an aggressive enforcement posture with regards to knives, in particular folding pocket knives. Stories of NYC (via NYPD) arresting and charging individuals for violating the "gravity knife" statute, N.Y. Penal Law Sec. 265.01, for carrying ordinary...

    X-ray photography...since when?

    In 2001, the United States Supreme Court held, in Kyllo v. U.S., 533 U.S. 27 (2001), a 5-4 decision, that use of thermal imaging equipment by government agents to detect heat sources emanating from a private home constituted a "search" within the meaning of the Fourth Amendment, and hence was...

    Romney endorses Manchester GOP fundraiser with automatic weapons

    Did a search and didn't see this posted yet. You would think with all the money Mr. Romney has raised he could afford to hire someone with at least a passing familiarity of the laws concerning NFA weapons. From the article: With such "support" for the Second Amendment, his support for...

    Bill O'Reilly and Chuck Shumer on Gun Control Tonight

    Just caught the tail end of the discussion on gun control with Bill O'Reilly and Senator Schumer. Did anyone see the entire interview? Will have to try and catch the replay at 11 PM ET. From the small part that I did see, the good Senator was all aglow with how big a supporter of the Second...

    U of Utah Drops Federal Gun Lawsuit

    Let me see if my feeble mind can follow Mr. Buhler's argument. He is saying that the University's gun policy only applies to those with permits, i.e., the only people state law allows to carry concealed guns on a college campus, according to the article. Now, the article also states: So...

    More from Roanoke times - will not relist list

    The cynic in me suspects that this was more a business decision on the paper's part, rather than the paper's editors and/or publisher having a good social conscience or realizing the potential for harm to law-abiding gun owners resulting from the publication of their personal information. I...

    Wilderness protection ideas when hiking?

    I don't know if Glock did anything special with the G20 chamber, although the barrel seems quite beefy, to use a technical term. :) Some folks replace the factory Glock barrel with an aftermarket barrel with traditional lands and grooves rifling and a "fully" supported chamber in order to shoot...

    Wilderness protection ideas when hiking?

    ShooterMcGavin, I believe Glock warns against non-jacketed ammo in their guns, due to the potential for excessive (unsafe) pressures as the soft lead scrapes off and builds up in Glock barrels, which use polygonal rifling and do not have a fully supported chamber (see the many threads and...

    H.R. 861: To amend title 18, United States Code, to provide a national CCW

    Taurusowner and others, I likewise share your concern about getting the feds involved in setting standards for CCW matters. The bill as written and presented in the original post, however, would appear to simply require states to recognize out-of-state permits, subject to the same...

    real life survival story?

    A sad ending. I really feel for the wife and young kids, who will grow up without their dad. I am somewhat surprised that someone like Mr. Kim, who, given his job as an editor at a technology news website was probably a "geek head" (and I mean that in a good way), would not have had a GPS...
