Please Contact the Members of the Law Committee!
On Monday, July 27 at 6:00 p.m., the Albany County Law Committee will consider Local Law “A,” which would require a valid firearms license to be shown when purchasing ammunition in
Local Law “A” would also create a secondary method of gun registration for both long guns and handguns. Congress has experimented with ammunition registration in the past, only to discover that it was not only ineffective for law enforcement, but completely unmanageable due to the sheer volume of transactions. Ammunition registration creates huge and cumbersome record-keeping requirements and provides no useful benefits for law enforcement. That’s why it was repealed at the federal level by the Firearm Owners Protection Act of 1986.
The meeting is open to the public, unfortunately you will not be afforded the opportunity to speak, so it is critical that you contact the members of the Law Committee IMMEDIATELY and voice your opposition to Local Law “A.” Contact information for the members of the Law Committee can be found below.
