There is no provision in NY State law at this time for someone that has residency outside of NY State to have a NY Permit. I wish there would be, but that is not the case. Whomever you talked to is either unaware of this fact (which would get the guy in trouble) or ignorant of the laws.
If you live outside the state 51% of the time, then that state is your residence and you are no longer a NY resident. Don't risk it
Update------my co-worker who lived in Ulster county with a NYS permit now is a resident of SC. He turned in paperwork to Ulster county upon moving and now has a NYS non-resident permit with his new SC address, belive it or not!
This is what it says on the Dutchess county Sheriff's webiste:
[*] If you move out of New York State, your handguns should be shipped from a FFL Dealer in New York State to a FFL Dealer in your new State.* A receipt should be brought to the Pistol Permit Office to remove the guns from your New York State Permit. You should check the licensing requirements in your new state
[/LIST]
7. License: form. Any license issued pursuant to this section shall,
except in the city of New York, be approved as to form by the
superintendent of state police. A license to carry or possess a pistol
or revolver shall have attached the licensee`s photograph, and a coupon
which shall be removed and retained by any person disposing of a firearm
to the licensee. Such license shall specify the weapon covered by

by any other distinguishing number or identification mark, and shall

or to a person not a citizen of and usually a resident in the state, the

This is not that remarkable. You can obtain a pistol license in the county where you live OR WORK. He got a pistol license based on his place of work. That pistol license lists his home address. His home address changed. Big deal.
But I'm a little surprised no one thought to ask whether he's still working in Ulster...
I don't believe it for a minute, I still have my life time full carry and when I left that was the end of my permit. no I did not turn in my weapons to them either, still have my permit as a keep sake. got my sc and fla. and don't need ny anymore and will never go back there. too much bs.
people get so use to being bullied arround and don't know any other way, GET OUT OF NY.
THERE IS LIFE AFTER NY
you can live in nys your whole life, carry, be a honest citizen, never be arrested and then move out ??? stop paying taxes etc..
now we move to adiff. state, optain our permits there, try and come back into nys with your ccw and now your the criminal, doesn't make any sense to me and others that left for a better way way to live..
I can't find any law that say's even tho we left that our permits are no good there. as for the clerk giving him a non res. , she broke the law cause it will never stand up when he gets stopped with a sc D.L...
