NSSF is pleased to announce that a joint New York state budget committee today voted on a revised budget (AB 9055D) that repeals the ballistics-imaging (COBIS) requirement from state law.
Anti-gun legislators had also tried to include a provision in the bill that would have mandated microstamping throughout the state.
Remington Arms Co. and Kimber Manufacturing, both New York-based manufacturers, voiced strong opposition to microstamping in Albany.
This is a tremendous victory for law-abiding firearm owners, retailers and manufacturers.
NSSF encourages all New Yorkers to contact members of the Joint Budget – Public Protection/Criminal Justice/Judiciary Committee and thank them for their votes today.
Glad to hear that strong opposition was able to convince the committee that these ill-advised proposals don’t work, they cost everyone a lot (including the taxpayers), and most importantly, victimize the law-abiding gunowner. Unfortunately, these legislators will attempt junk-science over and over again. Be vigilant against it!!
The LIb NY reps are like zombies…….this is microstampings 4th year proposed.
Its a useless idea, but thats why it keeps coming. anything to infringe our rights NYC libtards will try to do.
Good work to all that sent in letters, called, and went to Albany to explain our side.
