I believe it's only a few dollars and very little time so maybe it's not very important to you so why even bother Good luck anyway and a BIGHi there,
I live in Chautauqua County in NY State and I'm considering applying for a pistol permit. The only issue is that I have a reduced DUI (it's a DWAI which is a non-misdemeanor offense.) It occurred about 5 years ago in this county. I've got a good white collar job (not sure if that matters) and I am connected to some well known community figures who are willing to write me letters of reference.
Anyone have any idea whether I'd be likely to be able to get a permit? I just don't really want to invest the time and money if I'm just going to end up getting rejected.
I would do one or both of these things.
1. Contact the county clerk and ask. Most of the clerks are good people and will give you a straight answer on your odds.
2. Contact a Lawyer and see what he has to say.
There is usually a pistol permit clerk at the county clerk's office. It's probably a different number but the main office should be able to forward your call.Thank you for the help - to clarify, is the county clerk the same as the permit office? wizrd mentioned that I should call them.
Edit: seems like they're different. I imagine it would be a good idea to call both.

I got a full carry in Orange County after having a DUI in California 15 years prior.
I didn't call anyone to confirm if I should apply because every case is different. The County Clerk cannot tell you yes or no. It's a waste of time to do so because he or she cannot predict what the judge will do.
Every case is different and looked into. Your DWI may be tame and the result of a checkpoint at .08 while someone else's DWI may be different where damage to life and property occurred. Maybe someone did so with a .19 and a baby in the car.
I wouldn't bother asking anyone because the answer isn't black or white. Just apply, attach your dispositions, and hope for the best.
Male sure to disclose any "transgressions" that are on your record when you complete your application packet.
Permit in Maine is no longer needed.
Not needed in NH either.
Please explain re ME. Not seeing why one would be needed at any time.

I was surprised at the number of NYC residents with Maine permits, I wonder how many do not have a NYC or NYS pistol license. I have met a few that have Utah/Florida carry licenses but no NY permit.
