It’s getting real. A lot of progress made this last month.

07/26/2026

A major federal appeals court recently ruled that New Jersey’s restrictions on covered semiautomatic rifles and magazines violated the Second Amendment.

That is an important national development—but it did not automatically change New York law.

New York’s current firearm and magazine restrictions remain in effect while related cases continue moving through the courts. The United States Supreme Court is expected to address similar semiautomatic-rifle restrictions during its upcoming term.

Stay tuned, certainly more to come on this topic!!!

A lot of people have been asking me, Why are you opening a gun shop in NYS? Good question…….why am I?

New York firearm laws can feel overwhelming—but the conversation should not always begin with what you cannot own.
There are still excellent lawful options available for hunting, target shooting, home protection, training and collecting.

At Shilling Tactical, our job is to help you understand those options, identify what fits your mission and guide you toward a responsible, New York-compliant choice.

No pressure. No guesswork. Just honest guidance.
