Yes, I was referring to any type of NYC issued permit. In NYC, obtaining a Premises permit which allows a person to own a handgun and keep it in his residence or transport it to a range unloaded in a locked box is more difficult to get than most states full concealed carry permits.
The whole point of this thread was to simply find out if anyone had any insight as to whether it would be easier or more difficult for me to obtain a PREMISES PERMIT since I have already gone through an extensive background check and my fingerprints are already on file with the NYPD.
Really, I'm not trying to be a jerk, but considering that you can't do the job you wanted to do, and can't exercise your 2A rights without going to great expense and/or time-consuming hassles, why do you stay there? There's even a state fairly close to you (Vermont) that has always been 100% 2A-compliant (no permits required for open or concealed carry, no permissions to own or acquire weapons, no training requirements, no storage ((trigger locks etc.) requirements, no notification to LEOs requirements). Weather's not that much different. Jobs might be tough to find, but I don't know. I just wonder why people volunteer to be so thoroughly oppressed by both their state, and uniquely in your case, city governments. I am not trying to insult, but it is a baffling question to me.
