BILL NUMBER:S2505 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the penal law, in relation to exemptions pertaining to large capacity ammunition feeding devices and retired police officers PURPOSE: This bill exempts retired police officers from provisions pertaining to large capacity ammunition feeding devices. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section 1: Amend subdivision of section 265.20 of the penal law by adding a new paragraph 11-a, to exempt retired police officers, as defined in subdivision thirty-four of section 1.20 of the Criminal Procedure Law. JUSTIFICATION: This legislation addresses the newly enacted gun legislation and changes it so as to not restrict retired law enforcement officers from protecting themselves and the public, by limiting them to only seven rounds.
