I completely understand the ideology of concealed carry reciprocity, but if this bill passes, does this supercede State and local laws somehow? Will I be able to lawfully conceal carry a handgun with a 13 round magazine while in New York City as a result of this bill? Or would NY laws regarding magazine capacity still be in full effect? Any help to clarify would be great.

As written currently, reciprocity would apply to "any handgun" and "any magazine".
However, the bill sponsor made some contrary statements on Fox a few days ago... For me, the question is still unresolved.

I would love to have true sea to shining sea concealed carry ability, but am struggling with how this squares with 10th amendment. Sure would be nice to see the fine print so-to-speak.

2nd Amendment?

Not intending to be flippant.... Seriously... My 2A rights (and yours) are DENIED by NY and CA and other places.
This is a Constitutional issue, not a States Rights issue. YMMV

Good point, and well taken. I am not a Federalist. My ideology - right or wrong - is more aligned with the Articles of Confederation i.e. State's Rights. I am also a realist ... and it is state and local laws that prohibit a true sea to shining sea carry at present. There is nothing in the Constitution or any federal law that prevents one from carrying on the Interstate. I digress. Thanks for the thought provoking dialogue.
