NY hunters are people too.

I sold to a home-based FFL in NY once. Shipped the rifle USPS, insured, signature required.

He called to inform me that the rifle had been dropped off at a random house three streets away from him. By some unbelievable stroke of luck, the homeowner there knew him personally and dropped off the rifle.

Alls well that ends well, but I could certainly see wanting to avoid that possible scenario…

Dont judge people by their address. Bad politics happen everywhere. Also dont blame others for not wanting to engage in yours.

You can’t even sell certain clothes in New York, depending on what they are made from, and you’re surprised someone won’t sell you a gun?

The difference is the issue. Some materials or products are outright illegal. So ny and ca are a no-fly zone in the case of some things, like the photo above. No one can blame a business for that. And theres plenty of cases where a small business just doesnt know and has to err on the side of caution. And I get it, I have to navigate paying sales tax to 20-odd different states already, its a whole ‘nother kettle of fish to also navigate different state regs on the product itself. Thats all understandable, but its not what the OP is talking about.
The OP is talking about when a business is simply trying to make a statement, and is willfully refusing to go an inch out of their way in order to send that message. The problem is the statement they’re making is telling their friends to F off, and doing exactly what the anti-gunners want. It has exactly the opposite effect the business wants it to have, it helps no one except the anti-gun people, and it’s exactly the opposite of “the 2a community has to stick together”.

It seems to me that it would be in the best interest of everyone— and would actually send the right message—if some of the national gun organizations could provide some assistance (maybe even insurance?) to small business owners to help them navigate the regs to do business in Ca, NY, MA (and the other blueish states like Oregon, Colorado, etc who will be in the same predicament soon if we aren’t careful).

You mean standard capacity mags.
