Not always, but it gives them something to check whenever you interact with one. And if you get caught with 8, you end up a felon and bye bye to your gun rights.

In other words, when someone has little to lose or reason to cooperate ....

And, by the way, will criminals be deterred from loading rounds 8, 9, and 10 into the magazine?

What it should read:

And, by the way, will criminals be created by loading rounds 8, 9, and 10 into the magazine?

the whole thing needs to go as does many things which this so called royal family has done whether immigration to lawsuits to social issues and especially to the military and the social experiment.

None of this really counts because it is all done with an eye to 2016 and cuomo’s presidential campaign, in which he will brag that he was the first in the nation to take on the gun culture with a sensible, reasonable law designed to protect our helpless children.

Wait and see. It was all about being first out of the chute.

cuomo worships at the altar of cuomo. Everything else is window dressing. What can you say about someone even the kennedys found to be an insufferable pr**k?

All future mass shooters and bank robbers will be required to check in with the local police station to have their bullets counted before being allowed to proceed with their plans.

“None of this really counts because it is all done with an eye to 2016”

If that was the case, he is as much of an idiot politically as around guns. Gun control is huge loser politically. All the politicians know it.

Obama thought his “magic” could change all that. He is has already lost a good deal, and will lose more, I believe.

Organized Crime requires political corruption to work.

Organized crime deals in vice,
Cuomo condones vice.

second amendment fundamental rights combat vice.

cumo hate the second amendment.

Yet another supid ass Dem who runs off on mission of inoculating himself as a full fledged leftie who will ram thru a law to rule over citizens. Seems to be a habit with them. No big picture or detailed understanding of what’s it really going to do visa vie cause and effect.
Frankly, they are far from as smart as they think they are, plus they’re lazy when it comes to detailed, comprehensive work and knowledge.

I predict this headline in the near future:

Barack Obama: That ObamaCare law I signed turned out to be utterly unworkable, huh?

If you bet on his being an idiot, most people would avoid the wager.

***expects the disarmed to rush the criminal rather than shoot back****

And if you count your shots you can drop the magazine with a live round in the chamber to take care of anyone that rushes you while you reload.

I learned that little trick from cops who used to use .45 Colt pistols and others without a magazine disconnect.

As for rifles, same goes since they don’t have magazine disconnects.

***Exactly how would one load only 7 rounds into an M-1 Garand?***

During WWII it was standard procedure among soldiers to eject a partially used clip and reload with a full 8 rounds.
Would not want to use five or six rounds, then later, during a firefight have to use the last two or three, then “ping” and have to reload under fire.
