Bill,
Im not looking to start an argument, but i have had this conversation with 2 different people at NY gov just recently, and they both asserted that "antique" can only be applied to a gun that you cannot readily buy current production ammumitiin and shoot it. I neglected to put quotes, because i forget the exact language.
In fact, on BOTH occasions they pointed out that NY's law is stricter than the BATF's, and that this is widely not known.
All i can say is to repeat what I have been told. Half-wits in Albany...
If you can show written proof to the contrary, i will make several phone calls on Monday and i wont be polite about it. But on both occasions they sent me to a link where the exact legal text is written, and as I said, antique onlt pertained to handguns. Whixh they then explained.
I WANT you to be right here. My two experiences went another way.
