The governor, who has already proposed several measures strengthening the state’s gun law in the wake of the mass shooting in Buffalo that left 10 dead earlier this month, said she sees no reason why 18-year-olds should have access to the AR-15 assault-style rifles used in both tragedies.
Hochul said she would like to see the state raise the age of purchase for AR-15 rifles, “at minimum,” but that other guns could be included as well.
