I've been thinking lately... NYC's restrictions aren't too much different than those that got shot down in Heller. Especially eg. forcing all weapons to be locked/rendered inoperable and separated from ammunition when not "in your immediate control".
If a case were brought against NYC in the supreme court for these things, couldn't references to Heller provide a massive advantage? How might this be approached and would it be worth the effort?
Thanks for reading and appreciate any input.
Edited to add - I guess I could start with contacting New York State Rifle and Pistol Association ... apparently according to : http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601103&sid=aYY3yDLLiMQg&refer=us

Jacob Rieper, an official with the New York State Rifle and Pistol Association, said his group may use the high court's decision to challenge the power of New York police to reject an applicant for any reason.
Also:
New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg told reporters the ruling leaves room for ``reasonable regulation'' to keep guns out of the hands of criminals. He said ``all of the laws on the books in New York State and New York City'' would pass that test.
