NY sending out confiscation letters

From an article in The Truth About Guns I read this morning, they are starting to send out confiscation letters.

Are you sure on this? A lot of stuff went around last April that they were confiscating. I'm not finding anything current other than the truthaboutguns link.

edit - it wouldn't surprise me if it's true.
 
I googled the listed address on the example letter. It comes back to the NYC City Clerks office.

Perhaps members in the city can shed some light.
 
If I lived in NYC, I'd probably have a SWAT team kicking my door in. But this makes me want to go out on the porch and run full mag of buck and slugs just because I can, and nobody will even blink. :D Country folks can survive. ;)
 
NYC has completely different laws with regards to firearms. This is strictly NYC and not a state wide confiscation thing.

Laws past back in the 1960s requiring all firearm registration and then in the 1990s they began confiscation of "certain" firearms.

I'm not condoning it. Just shedding a little more light on it.
 
I wonder if these gun club members got their letters???? :lol: :lol: :lol:

It's a joke. This is gonna turn people into criminals.

Lived in Harlem and the Bronx for 2 years.... NYC can ESAD for all I'm concerned.

"...And that's all I'm gonna say about that" :lol:
 
Wtf? I wonder when CT will start sending out letters. Monkey see Malloy do.
 
This is wrong in so many ways, even for New York city. Everything I have seen so far is in regards to letters. It makes me wonder what they plan to do for those that don't comply. I'm sure visits to take them will be next. It's only a matter of time before a visit like that goes very badly.

I have also found some examples of people in NY getting letters to surrender their weapons and gun owning permit (permit???) due to the state illegally receiving medical information about them. They don't seem to have a right to innocent until proven guilty. It seems like it's give them to us and then fight it if you want.

From earlier this year:
A legal gun owner in upstate New York reportedly received an official notice from the state ordering him to surrender any and all weapons to his local police department. The note said that the person’s permit to own a gun in New York was being suspended as well. The gun owner contacted attorney Jim Tresmond (a specialist in gun laws in New York) and the two visited the local police precinct.

Mr. Tresmond reportedly went into the precinct and informed the officers that his client, waiting in the parking lot, was coming in to voluntarily surrender his weapons as requested. The local police were aware of the letter because they had already been contacted by the State Police. Apparently, if people do not respond to the initial mailing, local law enforcement is authorized to visit the gun owner at their home and demand the surrender of the firearms. In this case, the gun owner followed the request as written. The guns and permits were handed over and a receipt given to the client.

After the guns were turned over, a request for a local hearing was filed and the gun owner is expecting to have his Second Amendment rights restored. But there is more to this story.

In our conversation with lawyer Jim Tresmond, we learned that this client, who has never had a problem with the law — no criminal record and or violent incidents on record — did have a temporary, short term health issue that required medication. But how were his client’s private medical information accessed by the government? This appears to be a violation of HIPAA and Health Information Privacy policies at HHS.gov. If it is declared a violation, this becomes a civil rights issue.
 
Ah yes...the start of a dictatorship is fully en bloom. Who's next on czarbamas list?
 
thing that sucks is that a thing like that really needs to be nipped at the bud......before it becomes kinda normal and not that big a deal to other states in the years to come.
Its not like a group of people can go tar and feather them and get things changed but that's what needs to happen.....cancer starts with one cell

Great point Oli about nipping it in the bud. If it isn't, it will become the new normal and easier for those on the fence to submit. People seem to forget that our only power comes in our shear numbers. Most seem to have forgotten what freedom means and what it can cost.
 
its how they get a foot in the door, no one squawks too much they come on in. But they have to start in an easy place
