Governor Andrew Cuomo’s seven-round limit on magazines sold in New York will be suspended “indefinitely” by a measure in his $136.5 billion budget set to be passed this week, Dean Skelos, a Senate majority leader said.
The ban on magazines holding more than seven bullets was set to start April 15. Cuomo has said the law needs to be rolled back because manufacturers don’t make seven-round holders. The measure was a center piece to a gun law the 55-year-old Democratic governor pushed through the legislature in January, making New York the first state to respond with tougher gun regulations to the Newtown, Connecticut school massacre.

Because it was less than ten. After this all settles down and there is another shooting, it will become five. I mean like how many rounds do you need to kill Bambi?

Does this qualify as an "Infringement?" This is a case of zealots (commies) trying to out do New York and have the top position on the manifesto. Commiecticut is a small state and may not get the attention of Colorado but it is in the "cradle of communisim." The framers are rolling over in their graves. I hope Colt and Stag pull out but Colt is so far up the govt's ass with it's contracts I doubt they will move.

No. It's to force manufacturers to re-tool at a higher capital expenditure.

COLORADO CBI DENIED MY TRANSFER
I was just down at the tanner gun show, and was trying to do a trade of one of my pistols for another pistol that a FFL dealer had. Long story short my background check failed. LOL
Now I have to send in the appeal form.
I had two forms of ID and my military orders with me, my record is clean as far as I know. ( I just bought a pistol 4 months ago and another ruger 10/22)
If they keep this up I wont be retiring in this state.

More on the national side of the legislative agenda than the state side but interesting and timely, nonetheless. Some thoughts and observations on the subject of the proposed Manchin-Toomey amendment at link below - by someone well versed in the gun control arena
The “Pro-Gun” Provisions of Manchin-Toomey are Actually a Bonanza of Gun Control
David Kopel • April 15, 2013 2:20 am
The Toomey-Manchin Amendment which may be offered as soon as Tuesday to Senator Reid’s gun control bill are billed as a “compromise” which contain a variety of provisions for gun control, and other provisions to enhance gun rights. Some of the latter, however, are not what they seem. They are badly miswritten, and are in fact major advancements for gun control. In particular:
1. The provision which claims to outlaw national gun registration in fact authorizes a national gun registry.
2. The provision which is supposed to strengthen existing federal law protecting the interstate transportation of personal firearms in fact cripples that protection.
