SAF FILES LAWSUIT CHALLENGING NEW YORK GLOCK BAN

Summary

The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF), joined by the NRA and FPC, has filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of New York. The suit challenges a new New York law that bans the sale and transfer of Glock and Glock-style handguns, defining them as "convertible pistols" due to their cruciform trigger bar design. Violations of the law, which takes effect for penalties on May 31, 2027, are punishable by up to seven years in prison and a $5,000 fine.
