New York now requires police to seize guns during domestic violence calls, even without charges, starting Oct. 16, 2025.
New York State has enacted a law requiring police to temporarily seize firearms during domestic violence calls, effective October 16, 2025, regardless of whether charges are filed.
Governor Kathy Hochul signed the measure, mandating officers confiscate guns if a victim fears for their safety or if officers assess a threat, with weapons held for at least five days unless court action occurs.
The law expands a 2020 provision and aims to prevent gun-related violence in domestic situations, aligning with recent federal rulings.
While advocates highlight its potential to save lives, gun rights groups warn of due process concerns and the risk of losing firearms without formal charges.
