NY Assault weapon question........

Phonetech.007

Copper BB
Hey guys! New to the forum and new to Mossbergs. I have a 590A1 and was wondering if it is considered an assault weapon. It is the 8 shot model, no pistol grip. Completely stock w/ speedfeed. I was trying to read the bill online and could not decipher all the B.S in it. It was obvious whoever wrote it did not ever handle a firearm. ( Just my 2 cents!) Thanks for any info!
 
Firstly, welcome to MO!

Secondly, and to your point.
I agree, they seem to have no firearm experience at all, however, I don't believe its relevant for the talking points they spew. Control is at the root of their efforts, not the reduction of violent crime where firearms are concerned.

If I understand correctly, "a shotgun with a fixed magazine capacity of more than 5 rounds" means your traditional stock 590 is considered an assault weapon.
 
Give em hell, they deserve nothing less

We're all in it together

The text said something about no magazine that could easily or readily converted or reverted back to a larger capacity.
 
As much as we vary, becoming criminals overnight will surely bind us. You know, cuz we can't all be Irish.

I am having insomnia tonight. Check this out......Does this mean pumps/ bolts/ single shots are exempt? (Paragraph 18 ) Link: http://www.assembly.state.ny.us/leg/?de ... o=Y&Text=Y
