Mike Bloomberg-affiliated Everytown for Gun Safety ranks New York as the No. 2 state in the Union for gun control laws, describing the state as an “innovator” on gun control.
The gun controls include universal background checks, an “assault weapons” ban, a red flag law, and a “high-capacity” magazine ban, among other things.
