‘Rebecca Fischer, the executive director of New Yorkers Against Gun Violence, a gun reform advocacy group, said that while New York has some of the nation’s strictest gun laws, those laws are undermined when other states have lax regulations. “There’s really only so much our state and local officials and residents can do to strengthen our gun laws if states like Nevada and our federal government just enable, allow, encourage, and promote this kind of violent behavior,” she said.’

Because Nevada has its head up its ass, New Yorkers die.

“New York has some of the strongest gun laws in the nation. We banned assault weapons. We strengthened our Red Flag Law. We closed dangerous loopholes. But our laws only go so far when an AR-15 can be obtained in a state with weak gun laws and brought into New York to commit mass murder,” [Gov. Kathy] Hochul said in a statement on Tuesday morning. “Congress must summon the courage to stand up to the gun lobby and finally pass a national assault weapons ban before more innocent lives are stolen.”

Nevada permits open carry, whereas New York does not.

Additionally, assault weapons are banned in New York but allowed in Nevada; there are some exceptions to this rule.

Another notable difference is that in New York, local jurisdictions such as cities and counties can enact stricter gun laws than the state.

In Nevada, jurisdictions cannot impose stricter regulations than those established by the state.
