\"N.Y.\u2019s
N.Y. Gov. Kathy Hochul (Photo: Hochul\/NY.gov<\/em>)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

By Matt Manda<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s only been two weeks since New York Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul\u2019s expanded gun restriction laws took effect. The impacts have been immediate. Concealed carry permit holders<\/strong><\/a>,<\/strong> recreational target shooters<\/strong><\/a>, hunters<\/a>,<\/strong> even historical battlefield reenactment groups<\/strong><\/a>,<\/strong> have all cried foul amidst the confusion and intrusion<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hochul administration is frantically responding to criticisms, trying to settle nerves from law-abiding New Yorkers but it isn\u2019t working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One impact may not be realized until next year. Conservation dollars could suffer a blow because of Gov. Hochul\u2019s gun control laws \u2013 specifically her new statewide ammunition registry scheme. Laws that chill Second Amendment rights have impacts beyond their gun control agenda. Those laws could have potential impacts on how conservation efforts are funded \u2013 even those in New York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From 100 to Zero<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Gov. Hochul\u2019s new gun law<\/strong><\/a> includes greatly expanding the list of \u201csensitive areas\u201d where concealed carry permit holders can carry guns. It mandates permit applicants\u2019 social media accounts to be \u201cexamined for suspicious activity.\u201d It creates a statewide registry to collect and maintain a database of who is buying ammunition. It\u2019s having a chilling effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s safe to say my ammunition sales are down 30 percent since the law started [on Sept. 1],\u201d explained Jane Havens, owner of Calamity Jane\u2019s Firearms in Hudson Falls, N.Y. \u201cOne of my distributor reps told me he\u2019s not shipping ammo to hardly any New York dealers. \u2018I won\u2019t be buying ammo in September. Call me in October,\u2019\u201d he told her. \u201cIn seven business days, we\u2019ve gone from 100 mph to zero. The agencies aren\u2019t up to speed and don\u2019t know what to tell us [about the law]. That\u2019s costs us sales.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New York state receives significant federal funds each year for wildlife management and conservation projects thanks to the Pittman-Robertson excise tax on firearms and ammunition \u2013 paid by the firearm and ammunition manufacturers. That has totaled more than $15 billion<\/strong><\/a> for conservation since 1937. For ammunition and long guns like shotguns and rifles, it\u2019s 11 percent. On handguns, the tax is 10 percent. In 2018, the Empire State received $28 million<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong> In Fiscal Year 2020, the total was $23.9 million<\/strong><\/a>,<\/strong> according to Department of the Interior (DOI) figures. Last year, funding back to New York totaled more than $30 million<\/strong><\/a> dollars. The upward trend makes sense due to more than 1 million New Yorkers purchasing firearms over the past two years \u2013 and all those new gunowners need ammunition for practice, training and recreational shooting. Given the outsized amount of ammunition needed by law-abiding gun owners, a reduction in ammunition purchases predicts declines in conservation dollars coming back to the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018My Store Should Be Packed\u2019<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Pittman-Robertson excise tax apportionments to the states are based on geography and the number of hunting licenses sold. Gov. Hochul\u2019s new gun control laws are already suppressing ammunition sales and appear to be withering away hunting licenses too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gov. Hochul\u2019s misguided gun law went into effect the first day of most of New York\u2019s hunting seasons; including black bear, deer, wild turkey, waterfowl and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One firearm retailer located in Saratoga County, N.Y., immediately felt the law\u2019s impact as hunting season officially started. \u201cIt\u2019s now hunting season and my store should be packed,\u201d the retailer told me, wishing to stay anonymous. \u201cI sold 10 guns on the Saturday before September 1st<\/sup>. Now I\u2019ve only sold two guns all week. No one\u2019s buying ammo because of the registry. It\u2019s dead in here as people don\u2019t know what to do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The retailer had one more reason for the lack of business. \u201cWe\u2019re one county away from Vermont. That\u2019s where they\u2019re going \u2013 our dollars are driving over to them instead.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the same chilling effect that\u2019s happening to gun and ammunition sales is to be repeated for hunting license sales, that would directly eat into conservation efforts funded by Pittman-Robertson excise taxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crickets from Environmentalists<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

New York is home to several state and national parks that benefit from the millions of dollars of conservation funding, supported by outdoorsmen and women. That includes the more than 6 million-acre Adirondack Park north of Albany, comprising almost one-third of New York\u2019s geography. Numerous environmental and conservation groups advocate for healthy wildlife and robust conservation efforts in the park, but few have said a word about the devastating effects Gov. Hochul\u2019s gun restrictions will have on them \u2013 specifically the ammunition registry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Adirondack Council is the largest of the groups. They praised the governor when she assumed office, saying only, \u201cLt. Gov. Hochul has shown a strong interest in Adirondack Park wilderness protection, clean water, and community development.\u201d It was total silence from the group on the impacts Gov. Hochul\u2019s gun law will have on their efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

State legislators are already trying to right Gov. Hochul\u2019s ammunition missteps. Republican state Sen. Dan Stec said, \u201cWe\u2019re already seeing an immediate, massive reduction in these ammo sales. Practice and trap ammunition purchases are a significant source of revenue for local retailers and play a large part in funding our environmental conservation efforts. A decrease in ammunition sales means a decrease in funds. By criminalizing and monitoring ammo purchases, Democratic legislators haven\u2019t only infringed on our Second Amendment rights; they\u2019ve put the health and well-being of our natural environment at risk.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Republican New York Assemblyman Matt Simpson criticized the ammunition registry too. \u201cGovernor Hochul\u2019s disastrous new gun law will accomplish little other than driving more business and much-needed revenue to neighboring states.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jane Havens summed up the contradictory silence from the New York environmental groups who have done nothing to oppose or correct Gov. Hochul\u2019s harmful law. \u201cThey don\u2019t realize it. They are going to see the consequences,\u201d Havens said. \u201cThese groups don\u2019t put their money where their mouth is. And the gun industry does.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Time will tell what the funding consequences will be for New York\u2019s conservation efforts. Gov. Hochul\u2019s ammunition registry won\u2019t solve crimes or hold criminals accountable, but it will hurt efforts to keep the state\u2019s wildlife and conservation projects growing and going strong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
