Actually NY State Required Background Checks...

...for ammunition purchases long before California thought of it. Then NY suspended that requirement - probably only until they can get their own BG system up and running. In all likelihood that would be because they discovered that the NICS system does not allow for checks to be run on purchases of ammunition and of course NY State almost undoubtedly expected the feds to bend over backwards and run the checks for them. NY's governor Cuomo attempted to make it look as if he was giving in some on this but my bet is that he realized the state had absolutely zero capability to run the checks. More info on the NY requirement here

Regardless of who was first, California politicians are now calling for background checks to be run for ammunition purchases. More info here.

Buy ammo now in bulk - it may soon become an endangered species!

All the best,
Glenn
