WaffG


Great Britain (GB)
Even though Nunchaku are not illegal in England, there are strict guide lines you have to follow. 1. You cannot carry them concealed anywhere on your body. If you do and you are stopped by the police YOU will be charged with having an offensive weapon, and you could end up getting a big fine / penalty or even imprisonment. 2. You are allowed to transport them but they have to be in a lockable bag, I’VE a sports bag with a zip. Something so you cant have quick access to the Nunchaku 3. If you wish to practice in public places with Nunchaku it is recommended you tell your local police station of your intentions, where you will be training, when and for how long. give them a try you maybe surprised how co-operative they are. what they don't like is members of the public phoning them and telling them there is someone using Nunchaku in a public place, as they have to respond to it as someone using an offensive weapon and you will be treated accordingly. It would also help if you had some public liability insurance to cover your self ( This is not a requirement ) as if you make a mistake and you hit a member of the public you will be covered in any civil matter. this also shows how serious you are in the art of Nunchaku and it does look better when you Tell the police about training in public places. (Info from David Casey, England)

Hungary (HU)
Nunchakus and any device, which is designed to increase the effect of a hit is prohibited to carry. Possession and training in a dojo is allowed (Info from Gabor Vass, Hungary)

Ireland (IRL)
No information yet! Mail legal state in this country

Israel (ISR)
Nunchakus are legal! (Information received by fnf-member wizzra!)

Italy (I)

But if you can tell that are on your way to your local dojo you won't have any problems. Similar situation for knives, baseball bats and so on. (info von period, Italy)

Lithuania (LIT)
Nuchakus are ilegal.

Netherlands (NL)
Nunchakus are illegal, but Softnunchakus are legal.

Poland (PL)

In August 2000, police came to my home after a telephone company employee claimed that I had pointed a rifle at him from within my home. (There was a telescope involved, but no rifle.) When police arrived, they had neither a search warrant nor an arrest warrant, so I refused them entry. As a result, the situation escalated, and a team of police surrounded my home, cut off my phone lines, and persisted for twelve hours in demanding that I exit my home and surrender. They never obtained a warrant during that entire time. Nevertheless, after twelve hours, myself and my family worn out, I stopped asserting my constitutional right under Payton v. New York, 445 U.S. 573 (1980), of which I was well aware at the time, and came outside peacefully. In my absence, the police searched my home, finding my nunchaku under a couch.

I was never charged with resisting arrest, nor indeed with any “intent” crime (other than the alleged “menacing” of the phone worker, which was ultimately dismissed separate and apart from any plea bargaining), but the nunchaku found in my home gave rise to a misdemeanor possession charge against me that was not resolved until January 2003, when I pled guilty to a violation (not a crime), upon which all charges were dismissed.

Less than a month later, in February 2003, I commenced the federal constitutional challenge that was originally titled Maloney v. Spitzer, was later renamed Maloney v. Cuomo, and is now known as Maloney v. Rice. In the case, I sought (and continue to seek) a declaration that the criminalization of the mere possession of nunchaku in one’s own home is unconstitutional.

As the District Court noted in its reported opinion, Maloney v. Cuomo, 470 F. Supp. 2d 205 (E.D.N.Y. 2007), “The criminal charge[] for possession of nunchaku was based solely on in-home possession, and not supported by any allegations that the plaintiff had used the nunchaku in the commission of a crime; that he carried the nunchaku in public; or engaged in any other prohibited conduct in connection with said nunchaku. Thus, the only criminal activity alleged against the plaintiff was his possession of the nunchaku in his home.” In that same opinion, the District Court ultimately decided that neither the Second Amendment nor any other federally guaranteed right prevented New York from defining the mere possession of nunchaku in one’s own home as a crime punishable by up to a year in prison. The Second Circuit affirmed that decision in January 2009. Supreme Court review has been sought in a petition for certiorari that counsel filed on my behalf on June 26, 2009. As I write this post on July 4, 2009, we remain hopeful that the United States Supreme Court will review the case. UPDATE: In late 2010, the Supreme Court granted certiorari, vacated the judgment of the Second Circuit, and remanded. The case is now once again before the District Court. Papers filed in Maloney v. Rice since its remand back to the District Court are now online here.

Federal court says NY ban on nunchucks unconstitutional

NEW YORK (AP) — A 1974 New York state ban on nunchucks that was put into place over fears that youth inspired by martial arts movies would create widespread mayhem is unconstitutional under the Second Amendment, a federal court has ruled.

Judge Pamela Chen issued her ruling Friday in a Brooklyn federal court on the martial arts weapon made famous by Bruce Lee.

The plaintiff, James Maloney, started his legal quest after being charged with possession of nunchucks in his home in 2000. He initially filed a complaint in 2003, and appealed all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court when the case went against him. The Supreme Court in 2010 remanded the case back down to be reconsidered in light of a Second Amendment decision it had made in another case, and Maloney filed an amended complaint later that year.

Maloney had been focused on getting the part of the law overturned that banned nunchucks, two rigid rods connected at one end by a chain or rope, even in private homes.

In her ruling, Chen said the court couldn’t simply take that part out, and ruled that the state’s law as it pertained to possessing nunchuks as well as to manufacturing, transporting or disposing of them was in violation of the Second Amendment.

The ruling went over the history of the ban, and said it “arose out of a concern that, as a result of the rising popularity ‘of ‘Kung Fu’ movies and shows,′ ‘various circles of the state’s youth’ — including ‘muggers and street gangs’ — were ‘widely’ using nunchaku to cause ‘many serious injuries.’”

In an email to The Associated Press, Maloney said “perhaps the most amazing thing” was getting more relief than he had asked for.

Maloney, a professor at the State University of New York’s Maritime College, said some of his motivation was outrage. “How could a state simply ban any and all possession of a weapon that had a long and proud history as a martial-arts weapon, with recreational, therapeutic and self-defense utility,” he said.

Maloney also wanted to teach a form of martial art using nunchucks that he created, which he calls “Shafan Ha Lavan” to his sons, the ruling said.

The suit names the Nassau County district attorney as a defendant. The county’s lawyer had no immediate comment.
