  1. Pistol Permits
    Well, I tried the search function prior to posting this and nothing came up. I just recently took the plunge and filed an amendment application to have my restrictions removed in Herkimer County. Anybody have an idea how long its currently taking Judge Crandall to turn these around? I am not in...
  2. Pistol Permits
    Just wanted celebrate a little, and say I am now the proud holder of an Unrestricted permit in Rensselaer County. I also wanted to share few things: I had been working under the impression that if you were issued a "Hunting and Target" restricted permit, as I was, that you were required to wait...

    And the carrying with restrictions debate continues........... Notice the criminal possession of a weapon charge? I am assuming "not endorsed for concealed carry" part means he has a permit with administrative restrictions? Aren't all NYS pistol permits concealed carry permits rendering that...

    So I was looking through some papers and I found the memo that was sent with my pistol permit stating what my restrictions were, and how I would be in compliance. I thought it might be handy to have a thread with as much documentation as possible on the restrictions would be beneficial to all...
  5. Pistol Permits
    Hi everyone- this is my first post here at NYF, and it is with great joy I can say I just received my pistol permit from Joyce in Rensselaer County this afternoon! I'll be looking to purchase a handgun, probably a S&W 40 in the next week or two. Any feedback on how long it usually takes to get...
  6. Pistol Permits
    I was just curious as to which case laws are used to establish the local jurisdictions to place restrictions on pistol permits. I have looked a little bit but have found nothing, any legal eagles out there that know the cases? :confused:
  7. Pistol Permits
    First post here, been a lurker for a while. Went today to OCSD to get a new style pistol permit card, I still had a paper license with the stapled on picture. Anyway, while there I applied to have my restrictions removed. About a year ago I had taken the RPD unrestricted class. I had Judge Aloi...

    Of Arms and the Law: Injunction against Corps of Engineers gun restrictions I don't think this helps us with safe in any way. But it's still an interesting data point in what level of scrutiny is applied when.

    Anyone have their restrictions lifted by Bivona in Orange County recently?
  10. Carry/Conceal
    Hey folks im located in sullivan county and i have some questions regarding what exactly is considered branshing or what the consequences are to my gun being exposed. The reason i ask is becuase i ride a motorcycle as my daily vehicle (when we arent getting a ton of snow) so i was wondering what...
  11. Pistol Permits
    How would I go about removing restrictions on my permit? I heard in my county that the judge would like you to have your permit for at least a year and take an advanced pistol safety course which I have. What do I have to do to set something up with the judge? Is there another application or do...

    More disabled people oppose assault-weapon restrictions - latimes.com "Disabled people who may have trouble with traditional firearms have a right to easier-to-use weapons often targeted by bans, activists say."
  13. Pistol Permits
    So one of the things that has stopped me from CC daily is the red print on the back of my permit. Technically I could be going to or from my range on a daily basis. It's further away and I'd have to bring the gun to work with me so I wouldn't have to go back to my house just to go to the...
  14. Pistol Permits
    What would be a valid argument for having my restrictions removed in Genesee county? I have heard they will remove them if you have had a crime committed against you or if you have had your CCP for five years incident free. Why should you have to wait until a crime is committed against you? I...

    Does anyone think it would be effective to have some of our 2nd amendment groups put full page ads in the newspapers telling people how the SAFE Act means you won't be able to buy ammo in NY next year? Would it wake up the fudds and help use or would there be some crazy liberal hippy backlash? I...
  16. Pistol Permits
    So Darthgamer138 has a good thread on the Montgomery County Pistol Permit process. That's from 2011. I'm currently going through the process now and though it would be good to post on how it's going now here in Montgomery County. So here goes. I called in the beginning of September and...
  17. Pistol Permits
    I received my letter today that my restrictions were removed just have to make an appointment to pick up the permit. Colin at Target Sports made the process very easy, he does all the paperwork with the clerks office. Took about 4 weeks to receive the letter from the clerk.
  18. Pistol Permits
    I have been reading as many of the posts as I can regarding what you can and can't do with an Ulster County pistol permit. Mine was issued in 1986, and is still on the original paper. Never had an occasion to change to the plastic card. My permit only says at the top, "license to carry is...
  19. Pistol Permits
    I've received the application paperwork from Connecticut and skimming over the requirements I see one of them is to include a copy of my existing carry license (from NY). My license has the not uncommon administrative restrictions ("Target, Hunting, Fishing, Camping & Hiking") listed on them...
