Frank, as far as I know long guns, unloaded, in a case, outside of the reach of the passengers is not an issue in NY unless they are of the "assault rifle" genre (which can mean anything, like having a pistol grip). That does not apply to New York City. Do not bring any gun into the city. Do not even think about bring a handgun into NY unless you are a NY resident with a permit. NY does not recognize any out of state permits.

It almost impossible not to break the law in NY. Here is my understanding. Long guns can be in a soft case in a vehicle unless you leave the vehicle unattended then the long gun must be in a hard case locked. If you stop to make a bathroom visit in NY and you leave your vehicle unattended and your gun is in a soft case you're in violation. If the establishment you stop at does not have a sign posted allowing guns on the premises you are in violation. Just nuts!

Frank and others,
There are many new laws for 2023 that should likely only impact lightly.
Most importantly:
NYS does not recognize any other state CCL.
All guns if left unattended must be cased in a locked fire resistant hard case.
These are the regs that most could be affected by.
I could post a full summary of everything new or attach a link.

And that my friends, is why I choose to stay in PA instead of NYS.:nono:

Daryl: Maryland doesn't seem any better than NY from what I read recently.

The requirement to be locked inside a fire resistant case could be a costly issue for gents/gals with multiple guns. I presume the common and reasonably priced Kolpin and similar plastic cases will not meet that fire resistant consideration.

Harry - That's their 2022 schedule.

I talked to Ernie Hausmann this morning and he apologized his website hasn't been updated with the 2023 dates..... It is June 1, 2, 3 this year.





.

A) Effective September 1, 2022, if you leave your gun unattended in a vehicle, it must
be unloaded and locked in a fire, impact, and tamper resistant storage depository that is
hidden from view. Glove compartments and glove boxes are not appropriate safe
storage depositories. A plastic or aluminum, lockable, hard-sided, gun case or safe will
suffice for this purpose.

Plastic is ok!

Good reasons to camp out at Ernies.
Dean, disapointed to hear you wont be camping out with us.
Just think, most of us were in violation bringing our prize Parkers to the banquet last year.
I, for one, wont cross the border now.
