“Once the magazine is removed from the firearm, the firearm cannot fire."

Not unless the gun has a magazine disconnect. Even so, I wouldn't bet my life on it.

Federal District Court Judge William M. Skretny has found that most provisions of NY’s SAFE Act–passed only one month after the Sandy Hook elementary school shooting–do not infringe the Second Amendment.

He did, however, find that the provision that limits magazine capacity to only seven rounds was unconstitutional under the Second Amendment.

““Once the magazine is removed from the firearm, the firearm cannot fire.”

1. I’m sure the meaning behind that statement was that the police had a legitimate interest in making sure that the citizen was thoroughly disarmed and dominated before they proceeded to oppress him but that inspecting the magazine to see how many rounds were in it was not a legitimate part of that action an therefore constituted an illegal search.

2. I hope that Cuomo’s thugs know that most guns will fire without a magazine present.

3. I think California and other police states have done the world a huge disservice in requiring magazine disconnects because their existence in some but not all guns gives credence to the misconception that guns won’t fire without a magazine.
