What part of these ineffective infringements on the Second Amendment don't violate the constitution?
Technically, all of it except the 7-round restriction to the number loaded into a mag has so far withstood adjudication. The SAFE act initially conflicted with the laws allowing LEO's to load more, and use mags of higher than 10 capacity, but that was "fixed." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NY_SAF...gal_challenges

The SAFE Act https://safeact.ny.gov/

The 5-year validity of NC's setup is indeed ridiculous if it is assessed as to effectiveness. NY's required checks--place and time of sale/trandfer, every time--would be more up-to-date as far as containing someone's disqualifying aspects. But they've also concocted the situation of background checks for ammo sales, which is at the very least a bureaucratic nightmare and a huge expense for retailers. This provision remains unimplemented. We show our permits at purchase, and at this point, and since permits are not required for long guns, I don't know how long gun ammo is handled. Also currently, purchases from out-of-state suppliers and auctions needs to be picked up to a dealer you've had them ship to, after the copy of his FFL is forwarded to them. Ignorance abounds in this area, and several auction houses have subsequently shipped directly to me, nonetheless.
