Foundation for a Safer NY Lawsuits

Under this lawsuit, we sued for the following:

  • Excessive Permitting Fees for NYC. Exercising your rights should be accessible to all people from all socioeconomic backgrounds. It currently costs $340 for the NYC application, which does not include the fingerprinting fees.

  • Purchase Authorization Challenge. Challenged the requirement of asking permission to purchase a handgun after we pass multiple (local and federal) background checks (across all of New York State). As it stands, it takes multiple trips to a FFL and repetitive bureaucratic steps that do not make anyone safer, but make it more cost prohibitive for the average person.

  • Purchase limitations. As collectors ourselves, we’re also fighting the limitation of one purchase every 90 days.

  • Firearm registration requirements (across all of New York State). As a person who passed all the background checks and can carry a firearm, why can’t I shoot my friends firearms? There are also security risks (domestic and international) associated with firearm registries.
