New York .50 ban being heard today

New Yorkers, contact your legislators immediately and instruct them to oppose A4471, legislation that sounds truly horrid:

Legislation is expected to be heard today (Tuesday May 17) in the New York State Assembly Codes Committee that will ban the .50 caliber rifle. The legislation (A4471), does allow for compensation by the state to current owners, but only at a "fair market value" (translated: whatever they feel like paying you and not to exceed $8,500). In addition, the law gives you only 30 days to dispose of your rifle and you must turn your rifle into the state police PERSONALLY.

Remember, .50 caliber ammunition has been around since the Revolutionary War. Our founding fathers would have fought this ban with everything they had. I know that because when King George tried it, that's exactly what they did! Can we do any less?
