While browsing a search on *gun control* I found a a referance to [View all]

NYC sending out a letter to registered gun owners demanding that they surrender any rifle or shotgun that accepts more than 5 rounds. It's on every right wing site: The Blaze, Breitbart, Ammo land, Truthaboutguns and a host of others. Most of them citing each other for the source of the item. I did a google for news on *new york letter surrender guns* and found nothing from main stream media but a repeat of all the RW gun sites. It appears they feed off themselves, like a snake eating its own tail.

Anybody out there see anything about this? NYC did pass the SAFE act that I think limits magazines to 5 rounds but I thought the existing stuff was grandfathered.

The paranoia of gun nuts is amazing. The UN passes an arms treaty to regulate sales of military gear across national borders and they all immediately think "They're coming to take my guns!"
