New York's attorney general is suing a gun accessory manufacturer for selling a magazine lock that can be easily removed to attach high-capacity magazines.
New York Attorney General Letitia James speaks during a ceremony where Gov. Kathy Hochul signed a package of bills to strengthen gun laws, June 6, 2022, in New York. James filed a lawsuit Thursday, May 11, 2023 against a gun accessory manufacturer for selling an easily removable magazine lock that can convert a legal weapon into an illegal assault weapon capable of holding high-capacity magazines.
Terry Connors, a lawyer who represents several families of the Buffalo massacre victims, as well as two people severely injured, said he welcomes the litigation. Removing the lock enables shooters to fire rounds without having to pause to reload as often. According to James’ office, the manufacturer provides on its product packaging step-by-step instructions on how to easily remove the lock.
