In October, a federal district court judge ruled that New York's ban on carrying a concealed firearm on private property open to the public is unconstitutional.
New York prohibits the possession of a “loaded” handgun outside of the home or place of business without a license. While no law specifically bans open carry, a pistol license to carry is issued to carry concealed. Concealed carry is only legal with a New York Pistol License (NYPL).
To obtain a concealed carry permit in New York, including for NYC concealed carry, residents must: Be at least 21 years old. Have no felony convictions or serious offenses. Complete the required firearms safety courses.
An example of a proper cause would be someone whose life is in imminent danger — supported by a restraining order against another person — and needs self-protection. One general exception to open carry is for hunting and being on your own property.
