NY State Matches Rules question

[Dennis (CT)]

Are ALL NY matches still stuck with the 10-round maximum per mag rule/law?

Don't wish to drive 5 hours each way (& hotel exp.) to shoot 10-round mags.

Predominantly OPEN & LIMITED shooter.

Here in CT I can only Carry 10+1, but at the Ranges FILL IT.

Thanks.

I'm a bit out of date, but two years ago I got a memo from

three different NY ranges NOT to show up with an 11 shot mag.

I lived in NY 2 years ago, and not sure if anything has changed

in the past two years, but I doubt it.

Is it even legal for an out of stater to legally possess a handgun in NYS? Many years ago I was told by a NYS police officer that one couldn't be under any circumstances. He also told me that it was 2 years mandatory sentence. That was in the early '70s.

NY is 10rds even at the range.

Out of state people can bring legal handguns into into the state to shoot a SANCTIONED match. Mags can only hold 10rds there is no grandfathering of older mags.

If I was from out of state I'd personally avoid flying out of NYC area airports with a handgun even though it's legal. Drive in/out only.

This is why everyone avoids New York. It's a shame too there are some good clubs within an hour or so of me and I refuse to step foot in New York for a match

Oh my word! I'm SO glad I got out of that BS area when I did! Unbelievable! And folks still continue to live there; just amazing to me. Thanx L3324.

Be happy, for a while it was only 7 in a mag and they forgot to exempt active LE and military.

Thank You all for your responses.

Just miss the good old days & a lot of great NY matches.
