Yes…APRIL FUCKING FOOLS… I wanted a dozen!

I only wish New York’s gun laws were an April Fool’s prank. None of this has anything to do with the function of the weapon, and how the hell is anything over ten rounds considered ‘large capacity’?:

It shall be unlawful to possess any “assault weapon” or “large capacity ammunition feeding device.” So called assault weapons lawfully possessed prior to September
14, 1994 and large capacity ammunition feeding devices manufactured prior to such date can continue to be
lawfully possessed.
“Assault weapon” is defined as:
