What's the process for transferring a handgun permit across state lines?
I'm planning to get a handgun permit in CA where I live and hold state residency. However, I plan on moving back to NY soon, and I also hold state residency there (I know that's illegal, but I just never bothered to rescind one of the residencies. Made a bit complicated since I live in CA and go to university in NY). However, NY doesn't recognize out-of-sate permits, and won't issue them to non-state residents.
What's my best course of action here? Receive training in California, then apply for the handgun in New York?
I want you to get an answer, but holy christ. >California >New york >guns >permits >reciprocity >state residencies >moving back and forth
Fuck that man, this is a mess, I wouldnt even try. Just illegally carry. The red tape is probably worse than the reprecussions, if you're white.
Parker Nguyen
Get an 80 percent Glock, 1911, or SIG, and illegally conceal carry. If you look like someone who will get randomly stopped and frisked, you probably don't belong here desu.
Benjamin Russell
>guns >permits
What's so complicated about those?
Leo Moore
I'm not going to conceal carry, I only want to keep it in my apartment for home defense and maybe go to the range once in a while.
Justin Johnson
You shouldnt need a permit for anything gun related to begin with, but permits with these two states is even worse.
Jose Allen
You need to go to the county you reside in NY and apply for a pistol permit. You need to take a safety course, get 3-4 references send them to the county clerks office. They send you a letter saying you can now apply. You apply via the applications and write out all the information 3 times including getting your references to sign that paper, 3 times on each paper, 3 papers. One goes to the county, the judge and the cops. For some reason they won't let you make photocopies nor will they let you do it in blue ink, you write a letter to the judge begging for the privilege of owning a firearm. You pay the county fee of 110+ dollars and get fingerprinted and then you wait.
So if you're transferring your pistol from CA to NY you can travel with it because it belongs to you. You can drive, take an airplane, what ever but don't ever get caught with a pistol that isn't on your permit.
Henry Peterson
You've literally never applied for a pistol permit in NY, even in the most red counties its the biggest fucking hassle.
Nolan Lewis
imagine actually fucking following gun laws in 2019
Hudson Ortiz
You can't conceal carry in NY unless your county allows you to get your unrestricted permit.
William Garcia
good luck getting a pistol in NY by "not following the law"
itt: tough guys thinking they're so tough because they can type out the words "fuck felonies and shit I just carry anywhere"
Jacob Garcia
Well that is true, I just carry anyway.
Michael Allen
great, just don't get caught.
Evan Garcia
I think the last time I took my guns off was because I had to go get my homestead paperwork done for my new house. That's only because the courthouse has metal detectors. Otherwise, I've worn my pistol(s) everyday since I bought it.
Ian Campbell
I wouldn't carry in any of the states you don't have licenses or licenses that recognize your other state's license purely because if you actually use your conceal carry for the very reasons you're conceal carrying its likely a felony, especially all those orange states in
Kevin Russell
Well, at that point of not carrying in those specific states. Will you back that up by not going to those states for more than interstate travel? I will.
Ryan Smith
see If you carry in a state where you aren't allowed you'll get hit with a felony that is likely bigger than the perp who was trying to mug you. So congrats you're alive but you're also in jail and when you get out with a felony on your record, you'll never get a good job, you'll never get into a good apartment, you'll be homeless and you won't even be able to get federal aide to go to school because felons can't get public assistance.
Eli Flores
I live in NY, I can carry anywhere in NY because of this stupid permit except anywhere in NYC because NYC has its own laws like a separate state. This whole nuance of "fuck the police" doesn't work outside your keyboard when theres an entity whose whole purpose is to fuck you in the ass
Jace Thompson
I think that's a risk I'll take to not get possibly murdered by some wouldbe criminal, that you simply write off as "mugging."
Cooper Smith
Do you think all the criminals in New York got the pistols they shoot each other with it by "following the law", or "not following the law"?
OP already claims that he's breaking the law by claiming residency in two states, and doesn't seem to care. Why wouldn't he also be happy to break the law by buying a gun illegally? Or buying a gun out of state illegally? Or making his own gun (polymer80 or cartridge conversion cylinder)?
Levi Long
>transfer gun to CA FFL >CA FFL ships to NY FFL >you pay shipping/transfer fees/storage fees with NY FFL >Apply for NY permit via county you hold residence >Wait several months (year+ if you're in Albany, lol) >Get pickup letter/coupon >NY FFL transfers pistol to you
Kayden Gray
Pick what laws you break, if you wanna break carry laws. Don't break any else. Make sure you tags are in order. Talk nicely. Don't have a bunch of child porn on your computer. It's not hard, I don't have a problem because my state has not only constitional carry, but also reciprocity with all these other states. I simply dont go to those god awful states or give those god awful states any of my business.
There is no such thing as a handgun permit in California, if by that you mean a permit to buy/own. If you mean a concealed carry permit, that varies wildly by county.
New York requires a permit to even *touch* a handgun, much less buy or own one. If you're caught with one without a permit, it's a felony with serious prison time. The permit process is complicated, expensive, and time consuming, and you'll probably get turned down. As for concealed carrying, you can just forget about that. Not. Gonna. Happen.
The best solution you're going to find that's legal in both states is a KS7. It's the smallest, most compact, most discreet gun you're going to find that isn't a handgun (which you can't have in New York) and isn't a Shockwave (which you can't have in California). It's only 26" long, so it hides easily by a bedside, and 12 gauge will stop any home invader. It's a good solution - certainly the best you're going to do.
it could be anything really. Sure your "mugger" could get "attempted murder" because he tried to stab you when you shot him but in NY, attempted murder is 20 to life on paper but with a plea deal he'll get 10-15 all the while having an unlicensed, unregistered pistol in NY gets a minimum of 2 up to 15 but not like it matters, you're a felon and now you might as well be dead because you've been locked out of 75% of good jobs, good places to live and you have no tangible rights. You're likely poor af because you were in jail for so long and unless you have untapped savings you really aren't gonna go anywhere. Hell you can't even legally leave the country because you can't get a passport.
Leo Gray
>I'm planning to get a handgun permit in CA, one of the hardest states to get one >and I want to transfer to a somehow even harder state to get one in yeah i'm going to stop you right there, if life long new yorkers with a service record and viable reason can't even get one why do you think they would give one to an out of state college kid?
Luke Green
So why havent you moved?
Josiah Wright
>Do you think all the criminals in New York got the pistols they shoot each other with it by "following the law", or "not following the law"? You're right, the criminals don't care but if you're also admitting that you don't care about NY law thats the same philosophy of the criminal to start. Sure you could acquire and carry an illegal firearm without a permit in NY but the moment you run into nosy cops or use it you're pretty much forced to run and remove yourself from that situation or get fucked in the ass.
William Jones
Is this entire thread just a bait so you can keep telling people the government is going to fuck them in the ass if they even try to go to new york with a gun?
Because I'm not a reactionary to single issues and I'm not hyper reductive about my life choices. I have family here, my house, my career, my everything. To say "fuck all this shit" and move out because I want to have better guns would be absolutely stupid.
Ryder Walker
Then leave this board.
Isaiah Walker
I don’t think you can transfer a carry permit like you can a drivers license. You will have to go through the whole process for the state you are moving too.
Basically if you happen to be flying with your pistol and get transferred to La Guardia for any reason you've been pretty much sucked into a felony.
You're accepting the risk that by carrying an unlawful gun you aren't some "fuck the police rebel" or a "fighter for the 2nd" You're a criminal and if you get caught no one will see you as a hero fighting against the state for your rights, you're another statistic.
Owen Wood
Former NY resident here in Orange County which is "may issue" depending on how persuasive you are writing to the judge. If that sounds strange, get fucking ready.
First off, NY has reciprocity with no state. None. There is no transfer process. In my county, you needed: - fingerprints taken digitally at sheriff's - safety course at sheriff's - 4 notarized character references not related to you by blood or marriage - letter written to judge justifying permit - interview and background check with sheriff
And scheduling fucking prints and the interview took months. Total time to get permit was 13 months. They were booked 4+ months for prints let alone the interview and background check.
Then you need to actually buy a gun, file an amendment to the permit to carry it, get a receipt for it, and wait for the amended be permit to arrive, so add more time.
Good fucking luck.
Andrew Wood
Some guy just shot home intruders in upstate New York and all he got for an unlicensed handgun was a ticket.
Charles Edwards
>gett out of my sekrit club because unless you think like a room temperature IQ moron like me you can't be here hyuk
Evan Taylor
Can I have that source, sounds based.
Lincoln Bailey
Pretty sure he got charged with murder
Brody Reyes
>He got a ticket No, they arrested him because his dad's pistol wasn't on his license, they eventually dropped the charges.
There is no ticket for "unlawful possession of a firearm"
He got charged with felony possession of a pistol because it wasn't on his license. This was later dropped but they condemned his house instead.
Christian Richardson
>If you carry in a state where you aren't allowed you'll get hit with a felony Depends on the state, it's a felony in NY but in a lot it's a misdemeanor.
Also, if you're carrying somewhere it's a felony -- wouldn't you make some small effort not to get caught? If you get attacked and have to shoot, would you GTFO and leave this one of the many cases cops can't solve because they have no leads? or would you stand around waiting for the cops to show up just so you can confess to a felony? You only get hit with a felony if you're stupid (waiting for cops) or unlucky (get IDed by license plate + CCTV or some such). Even then it beats being dead.
Anthony Adams
If you're willing to accept such shitty conditions for a hobby you may enjoy, seeing as you're here. You mustn't be true to the hobby. You mustn't be true to the intentions of liberty. You mustn't be true to everyone else here. Since your sincerity to the contents of this board are held back by an intention to stay true to the nonsense regulations of a police state formed from a regional democracy of libtards. You're quite literally a troll to this entire board just by existing.
Jaxon Russell
Yea, I’m a faggot. He got charged with a felony. My bad.
Evan Russell
>Also, if you're carrying somewhere it's a felony -- wouldn't you make some small effort not to get caught? Well normally, a normal citizen who just lived through a life threatening altercation wouldn't run from the scene of a crime regardless. So basically once you defend yourself you have to run and ditch the gun.
David Harris
>accept shitty conditions You make it out that all I have here is shitty because the gun laws are shitty when in reality its just the gun laws in this case that are shitty.
>you aren't true to the hobby because you won't give up everything and move out of state for guns.
Yea and racing cars isn't my hobby because all I do is autocross and not on a real race track. >YOU GOTTA BE TRUE TO THE PEOPLE HERE eat my ass, take your fake patriotism and throw it in the trash.
Benjamin Harris
also pray you didn't get caught on a camera or get your face seen or any other stupid shit.
Joseph Gutierrez
You think the gun laws of New York arent shitty? That it's only the permit process of handguns that's shitty?
Ethan Richardson
>gun laws are the only shitty thing about NY
Hudson Brown
>You think the gun laws of New York arent shitty? Are you blind? >when in reality its just the gun laws in this case that are shitty.
>That it's only the permit process of handguns that's shitty? I didn't mention the process but yes thats really shitty.
Brody Diaz
Yeah! Just like the Minutemen at the Old North Bridge who went and hid their cannons in the woods! This is the problem with allowing niggers and spics in the country. White men have a natural respect for the law, even if they don't agree with it, because their forebrains are developed enough to understand the usefulness of the law, and thus they will seek to change the law when necessary. Non-whites are perfect anarchists because their animalistic brains lack such things.
If all you were able to race is a prius, that had to be registered with the government, and only used on private tracks. Where felonies were going to be in order if you used that prius in anything other than time trials. And then you defended those laws and regulations on /o/, then yeah. You'd still be a shadow of auto racing, that anyone who has felt the freedom of the entire auto racing world.
John Scott
Polymer 80s are really fun to make
Levi Cox
Oh please spare me your rhetoric about some analogy you wanna rip apart. Trying to gatekeep some hobby by calling others not nearly as fortunate in that regard is absolutely retarded. Trying to say that I'm not a REAL gun owner unless I just give up all my shit and move outta state is retarded.
>You defend those laws I'm not defending them, I'm pointing out that if you think conceal carrying in NY without a permit is smart or "the right thing to do" is hilariously retarded and I pointed that out earlier when you said fuck it but then said "well I just won't go to those states"
Michael Hill
I simply wont go to those states, but the right thing to do is conceal carry despite the laws. I dont even want to pay for sales tax for a sip in a state that doesnt let its citizens easily conceal carry.
Juan Scott
>The right thing to do The "right thing" isn't real because not a single person who decides your fate will give a shit what you think. No cop will say "man what a patriot I'm gonna let him out of these cuffs" No DA "wow what a hero I'm just gonna drop the charges" No judge "yea you know what this law is bullshit you're free to go". Not a single one of them will agree with you about what the right thing to do is because the "right thing to do" is some farce you wanna get behind because you think you have some kind of moral immunity when in reality thats just another term for "pighead retard" you're probably familiar with being called that often.
Benjamin Taylor
The risk of getting caught is so minute it doesnt even matter. How often are you getting pulled over nigger?
Brody Moore
>The risk of getting caught would be similar to the risk of getting involved in a life or death situation. If you never have a fire, you'll never use that fire extinguisher. At the same time if you do use it, the cops are pretty likely to catch you and despite what morons on Jow Forums say, cops are not based and don't give a fuck despite them posting vapid facebook posts "I'm not enforcing this law its gay"
Lucas Ross
who are you quoting
Josiah Ward
Just a misplaced > I really should have stayed on reddit hurr durr
I'd rather have it, and not need it, than need it and not have it. If you don't mind dying, then go out into the world without a gun. You're as likely to be attacked by someone, no matter if you've got a gun or not. If that initial threat is minute enough that you dont even think you need to carry a gun in the first place. Why would you ever carry one, New York or not? There are absolutely cases of justifiable self defense that have been met with the gun-toting, perpetrator in the state's eyes, getting away with it. Jury Nullification is literally a thing, just look how they're getting drug charges mistrialed. God forbid you actually convince reasonable people you deserved that firearm's use in defense of your life. God forbid you actually have something to live for, that the threat of some Felony is so bad you might as well just never even risk defending yourself.
Isaac Wood
>Jury Nullification is literally a thing, but it doesn't happen.
Brandon Stewart
>So if you're transferring your pistol from CA to NY you can travel with it because it belongs to you. You can drive, take an airplane, what ever but don't ever get caught with a pistol that isn't on your permit.
What? But if the TSA happens to search my suitcase and see my gun, and I don't have a New York permit, don't I get arrested?
Cameron Roberts
>What? But if the TSA happens to search my suitcase and see my gun, and I don't have a New York permit, don't I get arrested? TSA has guidelines for how to transit a gun on a plane. You check the gun as luggage.
Christopher Jenkins
I'm not interested in conceal carry, just keeping it in my apartment. Is my CA permit ok just for that?
Jace Sanchez
>What? But if the TSA happens to search my suitcase and see my gun, and I don't have a New York permit, don't I get arrested? Also yes you get arrested in NY if you don't have a NY pistol license when you take hold of your pistol
Josiah Cox
Jury Nullification happens all the time, are you daft? Open your eyes.
Grayson Moore
Not in NY, you can't even touch a pistol in NY without a permit
Tyler Hernandez
No it fucking doesn't. Good luck with jury nullifacation on shit like this.
Bentley Adams
You cant even document jury nullification, juries dont come out and yell "nullified." It happens by mistrials because unanimity is not met. It happens in "not guilties" on heavy charges that jurors dont find appropriate.
Daniel Clark
Once again, there is no permit to own a handgun in California. All you need is your license, FSC, and a secondary proof of residency like a car registration or utility bill. And once again, as others have said, you literally can’t even *touch* a handgun legally in NY state without a permit - doing so is a felony with serious prison time attached to it. Meaning that using one for home defense is useless, because if you do that and then the cops show up and find out you didn’t have a permit for the handgun you used to defend yourself, you’re headed to state prison for a long stretch.
If you want to defend yourself in NY state, just buy a shotgun.
