Legislation has been introduced in the state Legislature that would prohibit police officers from carrying or using a firearm unless they complete a training course.
Sen. Jamaal Bailey, D-Bronx, recently introduced S.6540A, which would amend the state General Municipal Law to require police officers receive firearms instruction before being able to carry a weapon on duty. Bailey wrote in his legislative justification that there is no current law or requirement in New York for police officers to complete annual training in the use of force until after they complete firearms training in the Basic Training Course for Police Officers.
A police officer may legally carry a firearm, on-duty, without training, during the first year of appointment
It is possible for a police officer, after initial training, to work his or her entire career without receiving additional training with firearms.”
