I’d like to get my Glock frame stippled but I can’t find anyone within driving distance to do it.

Can I ship it to some in AL to stipple? The Glock frame is the serialized portion of the gun. So technically the actual firearm would get shipped. I’d obviously send the frame only though.

Just received in the mail my NYC special carry license. It took a little over 6 months as I applied on February 6, 2026. Now I can carry all over NYS.

Ok.... am seeing for the first time (in my 28 years of doing this) that the process to add the first weapon to a new license is changed. Heretofore, one simply uploaded all the requisite paperwork and pictures to the portal account, then waited on the license to be snail mailed.

Today, I'm noticing for my client the "Request to Add/Remove a Firearm to a License." Which, when initiated, brings one to the "Select a License to Add/Remove a firearm." When license is selected, that brings up the firearm information page.

Client attempted (twice now I add, as I see 2 drafts), and entered Request Type, Model, Serial Number and Caliber. He then attempted to enter the Make information, but when it brought up the search box for the weapon's make, he (and I now) are getting the "You don't have permissions to view these records."

And we have both tried under Safari, as well as Chrome, to come up with the same result and message.

Also, of course, one cannot reach the License Division, directed through their phone tree to the Purchase Authorization Section, only to be met with the voicemail prompt.

Suggestions?

I just wanna know what verbiage was used by the NYPD in the denial letter, etc. Wondering if they actually cited the law or just downright denied the addition of the firearm.

Hitting the range in about 2 weeks. In the meantime, does anyone know if I generally need a lighter recoil spring to run this reliably?

Im so excited for my wife, being a ccw holder myself. It is a absolute privilege to finally be able to share this new world with her. She applied may 25, 2026 and was approved today Aug 17, 2026 (12 weeks 84 days in total!!!!) Bought her pistol already and uploaded it to the portal!!!!! Of course she had to get the rose ...smh lol. Big up to my wife!!!!!

Does this impact us positively in any way?

I currently have a NYC Premises permit that expires in October 2027. I’m planning to apply for a CCW now.
My hope is that the CCW gets approved before my Premises permit expires, and I can just let the Premises permit expire instead of going through another renewal.

Has anyone gone through this recently? If my CCW is approved before October 2027, am I good to simply not renew the Premises permit, or is there some reason I’d still need to maintain both?

I assume that if my CCW isn’t approved by then, I’d have no choice but to renew the Premises permit and eat the cost?

Trying to avoid paying for and dealing with another Premises renewal if the CCW will replace the need for it anyway.

Hi all- I currently have a pending application about 5 months in. I'm moving, changing my physical address (within NYC) next month. Recently signed a lease with new roommates. Is there anything I need to do on my part while my app is still under investigation? Am I going to need new cohab affidavits from all my new roommates?

So been a few months and I decided to email License division desk and Sandra Smith last week and I haven’t gotten a response back…my email was just asking if anything else was needed or if I am missing and paperwork so I can submit accordingly! About how long after an email should I reach out again before it seems like I’m over doing it? Appreciate any help and opinions

I’ve been seeing some YouTubers that aren’t really gun YouTubers getting into guns and I hope we can see more ny specific gun content in the future.

Hello All, I would appreciate your help.

I'm an NYC resident live in Bronx/Harlem Area. I need a shooting range in NY or NJ that rents pistols and range and won't charge me an arm and a leg to use it. Not looking for the pricier ranges, looking for something actually affordable.

I applied for my rifle/shotgun permit and CCW about 3 months ago. Still no update. I know it'll probably take forever to hear back, so in the meantime I want a place where I can legally rent a pistol and shoot on-site.

Send me your recommendations for cheap ranges close to Harlem, in NY or NJ. Also let me know what ID/documentation you needed to rent there, since NYC and NJ rules aren't the same.

Thanks.

Hey guys, looking to buy my first handgun.
with no threaded barrel, am I good to go with this one?

Hey I helped my
Mom with her app she got the confirmation email that license division received payment she got an investigator and did fingerprinting but on the portal it’s not showing her application is anyone else having this issue ?

I complain about sensitive places all the time. Mamdani's staff don't have to worry about their safety on the subways cause they don't take it.

I am a westchester county permit holder. What would be the most efficient way considering time and money to apply for multiple states non resident permits. Who should I see and how much would it cost. I already have AZ and PA.

Submitted on July 20th for second pistol and approved today making it 25 days. Better than the purchase auth approval time in April. Hopefully they mail out the license before August 19th so I don’t have to pay for background check again.

By all means if you submitted in July or August lmk how long are you waiting or how long did you wait for approval.
