Frequently Asked Questions

What is the new felony charge regarding gun carry in New York?

In New York, it is now a felony to carry a firearm on private property, whether it's posted or not, unless the property owner explicitly grants permission with a posted sign. This represents a significant shift in firearm regulations.

How does New York's interpretation of 'sensitive locations' affect gun owners?

New York designates numerous 'sensitive locations' where firearms are prohibited, including courthouses, post offices, jails, and even areas where constitutional rights are being protested, severely limiting carry options for law-abiding citizens.

What was the impact of the NYSRPA v. Bruen Supreme Court ruling?

The Bruen ruling abolished 'may issue' concealed carry permits, requiring 'shall issue' for qualified individuals in non-sensitive areas. It also introduced a 'historical tradition' test for evaluating all Second Amendment laws.

How are New York's gun laws challenging the Bruen decision?

New York is creating new barriers and restrictions on concealed carry, such as the felony charge for private property carry and broad definitions of 'sensitive locations,' despite the Bruen ruling affirming carry rights.
