Newly-signed NY law says toy weapons must be white, bright colors, or ‘translucent’

When it comes to toy guns, Gov. Kathy Hochul wants nothing like the real thing.

A new law enacted Tuesday bars New York retailers from selling replica firearms that are black, blue, silver or aluminum-colored.

“Restricting these realistic-looking devices will ensure misleading and potentially dangerous devices are off our streets, keeping kids, law enforcement and all New Yorkers safe,” Hochul said in a statement.

The new law, which passed the legislature with bipartisan support, clarifies that all toy weapons must be “white, bright red, bright orange, bright yellow, bright green, bright blue, bright pink, bright purple, or be made entirely of transparent or translucent materials.”

Exceptions to the ban on guns of other colors are allowed for situations like theatrical productions.
