Under NY's new laws...
- Thread starter E.J.W.

From what I have read of the law I can find nothing relating to reloading components. There may be a definition buried in the Penal Code that defines ammunition though that may include components. I have been looking but as of yet have been unable to find anything. Online merchants will not ship anything to NY if it's illegal here as they would be criminally responsible if they did. I ran into this with high cap magazines that I am allowed to possess due to my peace officer status, no one will ship them here though so I have to go through a local dealer and pay their price which is generally a lot higher. Good luck finding powder or primers though, everyone is out of stock.

@ kgs New York City has banned reloading components for years now
in regard to the original post here is the entire bill, I did a cursory search but could not find any references to powder and primers. However if I lived in NY State I would take the time to read every line

I am seeing on a few online stores that sell reloading components they are "No longer able to ship to New York State".
Sorry to say that I think that those that sell these items seem to think they can no longer sell them to those that live in NY.
Here is a quote from one of the sites.
"WE CAN NO LONGER SHIP AMMUNITION, POWDER, OR PRIMERS TO THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR CUSTOMERS THERE & WE HOPE THINGS WILL WORK OUT WITH YOUR SUPPLIES."

I don't think components got affected by the law. I read through the whole thing.
Well someone needs to let places like Midway know this because it seems like people are being effected by this?
Based on comment seen at reason.com (reason magazine), NY cops are complaining at the legislated limits on magazine capacity, 7 rounds if what I saw is correct, amazing isn't it.
In the great rush to "do something", to "pass a law", seemingly any form of stupidity would serve, did the gutless wonders in Albany N.Y., forget to make a "L.E. Exception"? Like I said, amazing.

7 rounds vs 10 is like putting a 55 mph governor on all sports cars because somebody is running down school children at bus stops while doing 70 mph with their sports car. Not going to have a significant effect on the results when the next bad guy tries it.
What difference does it really make if it takes some nut 3 magazines instead of 2 to shoot 20 children? Even 7 children shot is 7 too many.

Some online retailer probably just don't wanna ... risk any problems.
This is why. Who wants to risk prosecution while everything is up in the air.
You can bet most of those retailers have an FFL to protect. The NY Attorney General's office could get that yanked in "a New York second" just by being belligerent with felony charges against them, even if they were baseless.

If Coumo had his way you will only be able to re-load 7 rounds at a time.
Midway would not ship to me in upstate NY. But I tried a different online site and got stuff no problem at all.
Instead of posting the name of the outlet that won't ship to your State, you should post the name of the one that does...
Perhaps all the suppliers of anything to do with firearms should stop shipping to New York...
Maybe then gun owners there would stand up and fight for their rights. I only know what I see in the liberal media...but I've read nothing about any opposition to the new legislation. How in the world can any constituency allow such sweeping and controversial legislation to be passed in a matter of days? I'm dumbfounded by what has happened there. NY City I can understand- but NY state? Wow...
Not that the thought would ever cross his mind...but Rick Scott would be drawn and quartered if he ever so much as suggested what Cuomo's doing to New York, down here...
