New Yorkers want ‘em, and are violating all kinds of laws & paying high prices to get ‘em.
We don’t have a problem with ‘em in the South. Seems the problem isn’t the guns, it’s those _choosing_ to go to extraordinary lengths to _make_ ‘em a problem.
When I worked down in NYC years ago, virtually every shop owner I met had a “heater”. One guy pulled a .380 Walther right out of his jacket pocket to show me.
The laws are a joke down there and you are not going to prevent people from protecting themselves.
