what reasons did you list on the new "proper cause" form?Apparently it IS possible to get a full CARRY license in Onondaga County
I submitted a new "proper cause" form (along with copies of a stack of training certificates attached) to the Pistol License Office last week, Judge Aloi promptly approved it, and I picked up my new license Friday.
The pistol permit office did say that it is somewhat rare to get approved for full CARRY and that Judge Aloi is probably more likely to approve it than the other 2 current Judges, but that he just doesn't approve them "willy nilly."
So if you are stuck in Onondaga County with a Sportsman or Target permit, there is hope.
A little late but, here's 'one' sample outline for you.
Write a well thought out letter to the judge answering each question he may ask.
It doesn't have to be more than one page. Check spelling and grammar closely. Write it, then think about it for a few days. Then reread what you wrote.
If you know of additional questions the judge has asked other applicants, answer those questions also.
i.e.
The Honorable Judge xxxx xxxx
Dear Judge xxxx
My name is John Xxxxx. I have resided in Xxxxxxx County since xxxx.
I write in regards to my New York State Pistol License #xxxxxxx issued by Xxxxxxxx County in xxxx.
1. Tell him who you are
2. What is your experience/training
3. Do you have prior experience carrying - (do you carry 'legally' in other states etc.)
4. Do you understand the law
5. Will you obey the law
6. Do you understand the (tremendous) responsibility
7. What are some of the reasons you want to carry - (List some activities)
8. How do/will you protect your firearm from theft out of your vehicle - (There may be times you have to leave it in the vehicle, even if you think not, answer this question)
....One answer is something like this: In Car Gun Safe
9. How do you protect your firearm from theft out of your home.
I respectfully request that my Pistol Permit be amended to remove the (Sportsman etc.) restriction.
Thank you for considering this request.
I have twice tried to get my carry conceal in Onondaga County, I have attached my military cert's, Rochester Personnel Defense Certs and membership to different clubs plus additional references that indicate I carry cash for late night bank deposits and have been turned down twice from Judge Brunetti. It is really a shame that the County Leg has tied the courts hands in this regard. Surrounding counties allow their folks to carry and there is no issue. Here in Onondaga in order to carry concealed you either had to get a license twenty years ago or be part of one of the gangs in Syracuse and surrounding areas.
