Well, this is how you turn a law-abiding citizen into a criminal.
I wonder if he will go to trial or plead out. If he goes to trial and is convicted I wonder if he'll appeal it and how far it could go. Interesting how they called it 2 semi-automatic rifles, rather than go with the standard 2 "assault rifles".

Western NY man is 1st arrested under NY's SAFE Act
7:10 AM, Mar 15, 2013
HANOVER, N.Y. — Authorities say a western New York man apparently is the first person to be charged with violating the state’s gun-control law.
Local media outlets report that state Attorney General Eric Schneiderman says 32-year-old Benjamin Wassell of Silver Creek was charged Thursday with felonies related to the sale of illegal weapons.
Schneiderman says he twice sold weapons that are prohibited under the New York Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement Act, passed by the Legislature in mid-January. Officials say the violations occurred later that month and again in February in the Chautauqua County town of Hanover, 30 miles southwest of Buffalo.
Prosecutors say the sales involved two semi-automatic rifles and more than 300 rounds of ammunition.
