A New and More Sinister Way for New York to Disarm Its Citizens
William Kirk of Washington Gun Law analyzes New York's Concealed Carry Improvement Act (CCIA), focusing on the shift of background checks for firearms and ammunition from the federal NICS system to the New York State Police. He highlights concerns about processing delays, data security, and the potential for a state-run gun registry, which he argues violates federal law (18 U.S.C. Sec 926). The analysis suggests these measures are intended to hinder lawful firearm acquisition.
