Apex, North Carolina –-(Ammoland.com)- New York State has recently passed the NY SAFE Act, which prohibits law-abiding New York citizens from purchasing and using many of the most common rifles, handguns, and shotguns in the United States, along with most standard magazines made for these firearms.
The law, rammed through the New York legislature in roughly 30 hours before the legislators themselves or the general public could respond, is a blatant violation of the New York State Constitution.
A plain, common-sense reading of the recent Heller decision also shows that the NY SAFE Act is also a blatant and purposefully affront to the Second Amendment of the United States, and is clearly not a constitutional law.
We cannot legally sell rifles to New Yorkers as private citizens.
We will not sell arms to agents of the state of New York that hold themselves to be “more equal” than their citizens.
As long as the legislators of New York think they have the power to limit the rights of their citizens, in defiance of the Constitution, we at Templar will not sell them firearms to enforce their edicts.
Templar Custom is announcing that the State of New York, any Law Enforcement Departments, Law Enforcement Officers, First Responders within the State of New York, or any New York State government entity or employee will no longer be served as customers.
We hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal. Before the law and before their creator, all people are equal. When the political class attempts to set itself above the people, we at Templar Custom will always side with the people.
We will also be reviewing the laws of the various states to determine if others will be joining New York on our “Do Not Sell” list.
Templar Custom invites all firearms manufacturers, distributors and firearms dealers to join us in this action to refuse to do business with the State of New York. We must stand together, or we shall surely fall divided.
Sincerely,Bob Reynolds

You are setting an excellent example for the rest of the firearms community to follow. I will be sure to spread the word about your exemplary ethics, & I will be giving you the business I previously gave to manufacturers with less cojones than yourselves.
Thank you for putting the people first!
Spot on, Templar
Guys as a Life Member of the NRA, a owner of many rifles, shotguns, pistols and High/Cap Magazines I can on one side of the coin understand what most of you folks post. But as one who likes to step back and look at all sides…Don’t ship Guns and Mags to NY? Why not take thier money. This/these laws will be shot-down as Un-Const. Meanwhile who are you hurting but yourselves. Ship the stuff, make more, ship that too, make a profit, make more etc…
RIGHT ON!!!

About time! Get the ball rolling! We need bcm, h&k and sig on board. Can I dream for glock. Nypd carries glock 17′s with 17rd mags.
Im an NYPD officer, we carry Glock 19’s with 15rnd mags, if your going to talk have your info correct. Contrary to what everyone seems to think, most of the NYPD does not support these new laws, like all of you i support the second amendment and i am first n foremost a gun advocate.
Steve Shattuck you are clearly an idiot. It says right inthe statement you just read they cannot legally do so, but they can refuse to help arm the police, the politicians, and thier security. It is the best move they can make.
