1.20 of the criminal procedure law and section 2.10, respectively) to
possess and carry large capacity ammunition feeding devices with more
than seven rounds of bullets.
EFFECTS OF THE PRESENT LAW WHICH THIS BILL WOULD ALTER:

that might adversely impact the rights of off-duty and retired police
and peace officers to carry high capacity ammunition feeding devices
with more than seven rounds of ammunition.
