When I first moved to New York, I was shocked by how different the gun laws were. Getting a handgun permit meant background checks, references, and months of waiting. Even rifles had storage rules I didn’t expect. If you’re new here, check with your county sheriff early cause compliance isn’t optional, and every region does things a bit differently
 
The biggest compliance trap is magazine capacity. If you buy a new rifle, ensure it’s registered or compliant with the state's very specific NY Safe Act requirements
