Just wondering how often do we have to renew our pistol permits?
I did it online once awhile ago (when they first began requiring it) but I cannot remember exactly when.
I am meeting some friends in and about Poughkeepsie NY this weekend. I am driving from the Syracuse/CNY area across to Albany then south into the Hudson Valley. Any recommendations for stores that sell ammo at a reasonable price?
Welcome to the forums.
Don't mind Bustedknees. He is just being cautious about trolls whose first post is asking people to divulge personal info about themselves or their firearm habits without supplying any info about themselves. I am sure you understand how suspicious this is given the...
Belated Welcome to the forums.
Went to college in Newburgh ( don't hold it against me ;)) and spent many summers work at the Mid-Hudson Valley Camp, now known as the Marist Brothers Center at Esopus. Beautiful area!
Now living in Central NY but Esopus always a special place in my heart.
With everything going on here in NY regarding defending our 2A rights and the current attempts by Hochal/politicians to circumvent our rights, I was wondering which Pro-2A organizations seem to be doing the most to defend these rights?
I belonged to the NRA years ago but did not renew my...
This. This is what it is important to know. It is still a NY state law. The 2nd circuit in Western NY may have struck down the ruling and some western NY cops and DAs might not arrest or try to prosecute but they could try.
And, yeah, it might not go anywhere for them but do want that hassle. Do...
Wow! I'm just impressed that the Walmart near you is still selling firearms and/or ammo.
The Walmarts I normally would go to in Oneida and Dewitt stopped selling both a couple years ago.
I might have to take the short trip from Chittenango to Central Square sometime soon.
Thanks for letting...
I went with a Marlin 795 when I decided to pick up a .22LR rifle. It's the same barrel and action as the Marlin model 60 except it has 10 round box magazines instead of a tube magazine. It was lighter and less expensive than a 10/22. It's been very reliable and accurate. A plus is that it...
I am sure someone else has already posted about this but I was just at Gander Outdoors in Cicero, NY and their gun and ammo shelves were completely stripped. There was no sign or explanation. annoyed because I drove quite a bit only to find out that there is no more ammo. I'm at a loss as to...

It still amazes me that NYPD brass took decades to figure out that a heavy trigger pull affects...
Was I accidentally shooting your target every other session?
Was I accidentally shooting your target every other session?
If so, sorry again about that. :rolleyes:
I really liked it and would definitely do another there.
I went to Palmerton last October for my first Appleseed Event. There were people from PA, NJ and all over NY: NYC, Hudson Valley and Central NY (me).
The people there were great. Definitely bring a mat. I would also recommend elbow pads.
If you are looking for a 9mm pocket gun the Kahr CM9 is about as big as I would go. Although the SIG P365 is only slightly bigger in size and weight, those matter a lot in pocket carry. I have had my CM9 for almost a decade and it has been very good to me. For a pocket carry 9mm its about as...
Welcome, from a Central NY member (near Syracuse) but went to college in the Hudson Valley and spent many a summer working at a camp in Esopus. Beautiful region.
In fact, most of the state is beautiful, its the politicians who force high taxes and unconstitutional laws that make NY undesirable...
I am for eliminating qualified immunity, in it's current form, for police officers, as well as for judges, prosecutors and politicians.
I am against the establishment of a separate sets of laws and rules for different classes of person, no matter who they maybe.
No one, not cops, judges...
I believe that part of prepping for the worst should include having the name and phone number of a Pro-2A attorney handy should the terrible event occur that one would have to defend themselves and/or their loved ones from grave and bodily harm using deadly force. I hope and pray that I would...
According to the video the first victim, who tried to draw his gun and got killed, had about 3 seconds from the appearance of the shotgun to killer pulling the trigger. Fishing around for his gun in the small of his back seems to be what took up the most time.
Talking about 7 or 10 rounds, in regards how many rounds you can have in the mag when you carry, it's not quite so simple as some portray.
The law is still on the books, a cop can still arrest you for (and probably will), a DA can still try to prosecute you (and probably will). Now you may not...
I was suprised to see a Leatherman Leap in the photo as I was sure I am one of only a handful of adults that carry and use one. They are marketed as a kids first or beginner Leatherman multitool. The knife blade comes unattached for minors but is easily attached when they are mature enough for...
I used to like to get winter gear for my kids there. They did free alterations on pants bought there which my father in law liked ( he's a little in the shorter side.)
I also bought ammo there occasionally, mostly self defense hollow points while picking up FMJ at Walmart.
But mostly will miss...
If your wife is teacher she shouldn't have any problem getting hired in a southern state. Most of those school districts fall over themselves to hire teachers who were trained in northern states, particularly the northeast.
My wife and I have strongly considered moving to a southern state for...
ND increased when LA sheriff's department switched from Beretta 92s to M&Ps:
Rise In Negligent Discharges Accompanies LASD Transition To Striker-Fired Pistol - Bearing Arms - Beretta, Negligent Discharge, Police, Smith & Wesson M&P, Training
Can we even carry a firearm on parkland here in NY?
Nevertheless, I think either .40 cal, the .40S&W or the 10mm, would do fairly well against the four legged creatures that's possible to find in this state: black bears, coyotes, cougars. Honestly, I am more worried about the unleashed...
#1 For sure! My wife can't tell any of pistols apart as she has only seen in their holsters and they are all black.
Some other useful tips, pay the LGS in cash so there isn't a credit card trail that your spouse may discover. If ordering online, such as via GunBroker, to be delivered to your...
I am in, too. As others have said, it is really nice of you to do this.
I have an Aero Precision lower and haven't picked an upper yet so I can easily make this handguard work.
I am kind of surprised that the Walther PPQ has not been mentioned more. The Q4 and Q5 come optic ready and the trigger is considered on of the best, straight out of the box.
When animals are protected more than people.:mad:
"Prohibits tethering, restraining, caging or penning of dogs or animals between the hours of 7 p.m. to 6 a.m; may be tethered to a stationary object or a pen or cage in a sized pen or cage four times the height and length of said dog or animal."...
I thought this was a ridiculous law when I first heard about it 10 or so years ago. Nunchaku are were banned in the NY in 1974, citing I believe that it was a "gang weapon." When I looked into it I came across this website: FightingArts.com - Nunchaku: Illegal in New York & California -

I copy that. That's why I try to pay in cash at the local gun store, use a postal money (which you can also buy in cash), or use a business credit card when buying parts or items online (which my partners frown upon). What she doesn't know won't hurt her! Besides, their the only things I buy...
I have only had a P99C since the beginning of summer but so far I love it. Although the trigger is unique, it is the best thing about it. It even makes me look like a good shooter.
As Darth has already said, that is a good price.
If you don't pick it up, could you PM me the name and address...
