The what-we-know about the NYS Police ammunition background check system and SAR licensing. Schemes designed to evade judicial review is how we characterized it. Now, it’s finally in front of the Court.

Our case filed in November 2022, but it wasn’t until December 2025 that the NY Attorney General motioned to dismiss the Bruen claims in Gazzola v. Hochul. This is the Memorandum of Law that lays out what we know, alongside the questions the NYS Police should have to answer.

  • background check requests that never result in a response;

  • background checks being driven by NYSP into the 30-day Cuomo Era handgun hold statute, even for ammunition and long guns;

  • the lack of statutory basis to deny an ammunition background check;

  • the lack of historical basis for an ammunition background check;

  • the breadth of impact of an ammunition background check exceeding the Heller ban on handguns;

  • and more.
