You applied at the perfect time, don’t let nobody tell you you wasted your money.

I just moved to New York so I didn’t really have a choice when to apply but I think it’s good timing as well, we shall see

Keep us Updated & if they deny you make Sure you Appeal. By the way, if you just moved to NY did you use out of state references or ?

My grandfather owned a huge farm in Saugerties, I would have thought that Ulster being rather rural would be a county that issues easily. I realize that is not the only determining factor but I'm Saratoga county and 3 miles away is Schenectady (urban) the process was 4 times longer.

I hear it’s all dependent on what judge you get , hopefully I get a good one

Should’ve Atleast waited after Supreme Court case lol

It’ll be months before they even look at mine , might as well get ahead of the line

This is the way.
The amount of people who will rush to apply after SCOTUS strikes down May-issue (hopefully) will be nothing short of mind-boggling.

I’m not so sure. There’s going to be an uptick but I think anybody who was already interested in carrying for defense would have submitted the permit. Although who knows if it’s all over the news might get a bunch of people who never really thought about it interested.

And alternatively, there is the possibility that they strike down the permitting/licensing scheme as a whole which would default it to the rifle/shotgun ownership in NY where you only need to pass a background check to own a firearm and there is no differentiation between shotgun/rifle/pistol. This is assuming that they see concealed carry as a right in accordance with the constitution.

I just moved to New York so I didn’t have a choice when I got to submit it lol

Oh I thought you were upgrading your pistol permit lol my bad

Actually him putting in before the decision may work out better if NY’s law gets knocked down. They may push it thru faster.

Lol they won’t. It’ll just improve his chances of getting one

Ulster county is my old hometown (Rosendale) and it was a unrealized dream to carry there until I moved away. Glad to see you will be able to!

Unless you’re a felon there should be no concern you wasted time and money. It may be a good idea to apply now. NYS will most probably play games if we get the desired outcome. You may need 6 references as opposed to 4. They may adopt NYC stupidity like sending an inquiry letter to your employer, landlord, etc.
Thanks for the reassurance, just know how the state is and a big reason I never returned after the military.
Unless you got a dishonorable discharge I’m sure things will be fine. I will say this; there are many people in this group who know of or heard of attorneys that specialize in permit denials. If that is your outcome it may seem like wasted money, but it’s a fight worth having. Additionally, I would suggest writing to groups like GOA, and FPC as well as setting up a Give, Send, Go to help offset the legal fees. That’s far into the future and most probably unnecessary, but you have to play chess with these people. The important thing is that you don’t say fuck it. That’s what they want.
Pay no mind to u/DonDeveral The governor said today on tv they know they are gonna lose the SCOTUS decision and are preparing for it. That means vile tactics.
Can only imagine what they plan on trying to do. We shall see

u/psychologicaloffer41 & what extra tactics can they use ? On tv The mayor said, it will be a “legal battle” & they’re looking for ways to combat the ruling correct but That means they have non. Also NYC doesn’t make laws.
Shall issue doesn’t mean fees can’t be manipulated, red flag laws, denying people on no fly lists, etc. Those are TACTICS of power hungry people.
They won’t & he applied At the perfect time
