Hunters or conceal-carry license holders should be exempt from additional ammunition background checks and fees, according to one Central New York state legislator.
Assemblyman Joseph Angelino, R-Norwich, has introduced A.8085 to amend the state Penal Law to allow licensed individuals to purchase or take possession of ammunition without requiring contacting the statewide license and record database for a background check. The check is called for in the Concealed Carry Improvement Act passed by the state Legislature in 2022 and which took effect in September.
The law has been challenged at least twice in federal court, including once by Sen. George Borrello, R-Sunset Bay, William Ortman of Stow and Assemblyman David DiPietro, R-Buffalo.
