Mark Kelly Commits a Felony at New York Gun Show
A TTAG reader writes: "Mark 'I wasn't really buying that AR-15' Kelly is committing a felony right in front of New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman. It's against New York State (NYS) law for someone to be in possession (i.e. holding) a handgun without a valid NYS Pistol license. Mark Kelly can't have a NYS pistol license because he's not a legal resident of New York." An Empire State firearms attorney told TTAG that there's an exception for firearms training but, as far as he can tell, not gun shows. Unless we hear otherwise, underArticle 265 of New York State penal law, Mr. Kelly's committing a Class E felony. But wait! There's more! Well, there would have been if Kelly hadn't been pressed for time. "Kelly bought a book on Colt revolvers," washingtontimes.com reports, "and said later he probably would have bought a gun if he had had more time."
