I can't believe the insanity in Washington.......everyone that protects Obama, carries an assault weapon! He wants you to NOT have one......so you can call 911 when someone is breaking into your home......then wait for the police to finish their coffee break, they arrive, you are dead, they write the report, call the medical examiner...process the scene....then leave....next call!!

They tried to regulate moonshining, drugs, and prostitution....none of it worked.....if guns go underground.....anyone wanting one will just pay a bigger price......nuff said!

Next thing they will ban motorcycles because they cause too many injuries.......then maybe toothbrushes and razors so you can't shave unless in the company of a police officer.

It doesn't matter what we think. Debate all you want. Talk all you want. Have forums and town meetings all you want. Better strap in its going to be a bumpy ride like you've never seen before. Thought the dark years of the Clinton second term were bad? You ain't seen nothin.

We can only hope that many states and their counties will uphold the Constitution. There are MANY former and current military and law enforcement that will in fact do all they can to uphold and protect the Constitution, and the oaths they took.

Coincidental that the NY law was signed today, by a Republican controlled house and a Democratic controlled Senate, one day before the President announces 19 possible Executive Orders concerning firearms. Well, it is NY after all. But I find this telling in the argument by them to come as to how much support they'll say there is out there for sweeping changes, "common sense" changes. Now, theres that phrase again.

Whatever laws they pass will be impotent if the 100's of millions of gun owners simply ignore them. Obama chooses what federal laws he will enforce and respects, well so can the American people. What has he done to enforce the federal law against illegal drugs in Colorado, Washington and California?

You know, there ARE other types of firearms besides 'assault weapons'?

Yes, true. I don't have any "assault" weapons so no dog in the fight but - You can see that NY limited total mag capacity to 7 rounds. Supposedly no new semi-auto pistols can be purchased, so CC'ers in NY will have to buy revolvers. This is just another step to infringe on your ability for self defense.

Look at it this way - back in the 70's and early 80's when uzi's and tec9's were getting attention, the police made a sweeping push to move AWAY from revolvers to large cap semi's because they were 'outgunned" by the criminals. Now that large cap semi's are the norm and available to all criminals, ordinary law-abiding people are pushed back to revolver capacity. How much sense does that make? This is just another way to disarm the law abiding citizen, all the while saying "we're not infringing on your rights".  BS. Steve

Even my little KelTec P11 would be illegal with 10 rounds.

Hahahah...and I'm laughing at NY stupidos...   Like this is gonna work....O me...I don't understand how they can be so near sighted

several revolvers now available with 8 and 9 shots...S&W, Ruger

If the law sticks, I would expect to see more....

I would also expect to see a magazine exchange set up

Please don't tell these idiots that a double-action revolver is functionally the same as an auto-loading pistol, they'll want to ban them, too.  Then we'll be back to Colt SAA's.  It just proves that this whole thing is a form of mass hysteria brought on by the media blitz.  The only thing the average non-gun-owning American hears is "9mm SEMI-AUTOMATIC....SEMI-AUTOMATIC ASSAULT RIFLE....etc."  People will want to ban what they hear about, since that is all they know.  While I routinely carry an auto-loading pistol, I don't consider myself all that much "under-defended" with my S&W 4" 629 .44 Mag, or the Ruger 4" GP-100 .357, or my .38 Colt Dick Special, and a couple of speedloaders. 

Which brings up this question:  What is the legality of a speedloader for one of the .22 revolvers that has a 10 round cylinder?  Do these fools consider a speedloader to be a removable magazine?  (Sshhhhh...don't tell them it even exists.)

I don't know about a speedloader, but I'd guess that moon clips for larger capacity revolvers might be problematic.

It seems the solution has already been made to answer these (informed?) election driven lawmakers.

I want one!  I'm sure I can find a good holster to hide that under my T-shirt. ;D

Hhmmm...two firing pins, one rotating cylinder, looks like the bottom barrel (inner circle of the cylinder) will run out of ammo before the top barrel.  I bet it kicks like a summ-bitch when both are firing together.  (Or maybe not with all that weight of steel in the frame/cylinder.)

Is it one cylinder, or two?  Looks like it might be one inside the other.

I'm in Canada where we do have gun control laws and I am happy about that. We are allowed guns for hunting and for collecting under tightly controlled conditions. Yes, we have criminals with guns that don't have licences, but we also have police with automatic weapons that seem to keep that under control. If the general population underwent the same screening, training and qualification that the police do then I would be OK with them carrying, but not, as it appears in the US, when any jackass with a extra $200 can buy a gun and carry it in public just waiting for someone to **** him off.

I think that US gun laws are basically non-existent and many innocent people are dying that don't need to. Our gun laws aren't perfect, but everyone that wants to still gets to hunt and target shoot without taking pot shots at random citizens.

As an aside; why do you need assault rifles? Deer don't shoot back.
