Legal Concerns for NY Female Pistol Shooters

Hey all, just thought this may be of some concern to my female counterparts. I know from my own personal experiences that my girlfriend is unable to use some of my rifles and handguns due to the size of her hands/arms etc. I think this bill is either unintentionally or accidentally going to affect the freedoms of NY women who like to shoot or use a pistol for self-defense.

Bills

Let this assemblyman know what you think, I already gave him an earful and then some.

Matt

It affects anyone who likes a light trigger on their firearms, especially bullseye shooters. This bill comes under the heading of a 'Give me a bleepin' break!' bill.

Definitely have to write to my Assemblyman and tell him this has to be pigeonholed. The only safety on any firearm that's worth anything is the one between your ears. This includes storing and securing your firearms properly when not in use.

That's the First Amendment, not the Second.
