NOTE: If you have questions, feel free to ask. If you don't have updated info, aka, taken a legalities class within the past 2 years, you probably have outdated info.

If you have an axe to grind with the NY State permit process or NY in general, this isn't the forum for that. If you want to argue or be disrespectful, you won't get any traction here. Be polite. I've already deleted and block a few people.

Big news for responsible gun owners outside New York: You can now apply for a New York State Pistol License—even if you're not a resident!

Thanks to the recent settlement in Shaffer v. Quattrone, New York State has confirmed that residency (or in-state employment) is not required to apply for a pistol permit. Non-residents are eligible, and licensing officers can process applications accordingly.

This change creates real opportunities for out-of-state individuals who visit, travel through, or have connections to NY to pursue legal carry under the right conditions.

At Rochester Personal Defense, LLC, we're the leading provider of NYS CCW license courses—helping students meet all New York standards with expert, hands-on training. Our 18-hour in-person classes include practical fi****ms instruction, legal insights, and personalized guidance to help you navigate the process efficiently—minimizing hassle while maximizing your chances of success.

Planning a trip to NY for one of our upcoming courses? We're ready to help out-of-state applicants get prepared the right way.

Want to host a NYS CCW License course at your location outside of NY? We can do that!

🚨 Gun Owner Alert: Kathy Hochul’s bill to mandate a deadly 10-day waiting period on all gun sales in New York could be voted on in the State Senate at any moment!

Criminals don’t wait 10 days, and we shouldn’t have to either. This bill will only get innocent women killed!
