Non-resident + firearms + NYC

[Marcus99]

I was hoping to gather some information regarding non-resident possession of firearms in NYC. I'm considering going to school in the city for a number of reasons and am trying to figure out if I could continue at least one of my two hobbies (cars is the other but I already ruled that out). How do I go about legally possessing and target shooting in NYC? (I know CCW isn't happening). The complicated licensing procedure doesn't necessarily deter me, but I would really like to remain a NH resident, yet I've read that NY has no provision for non-residents to bring handguns into the state. But even if I became a NY resident every pistol I would want to bring into the city would need to be registered, and then it could not leave the city per NYPD regulations, and on top of that I am restricted to 200rds...correct? Any other restrictions I missed? I'm just trying to wrap my head around this.

How about rifles; what are the licensing provisions for something like my 1899 Krag? I noticed a range (Richmond Boro Gun Club) on the southwest end of Staten Island that actually looks pretty respectable. Is there a limit to how many times I can visit a range per month? And how am I supposed to transport something like a Krag on the subway for an hour, just in a rifle case?

ANY input would be appreciated.

i do not know much about their laws, but a non-resident would be at

real risk.

Don't overlook the possibility of residence in Westchester or Nassau Counties, or New Jersey. (up)Chuck Schumer used to belong to a gun club - in Roslyn, I think.

I probably should have mentioned that living outside the city isn't an option; a generous family member has an apartment that I can use rent-free.

New York does not even issue non-res permits (city or state). You may as well forget this idea. I'm sure if you go on this forum and ask you'll get the same response.

Exposure to liberals will rot your brain.

Stay there long enough and you'll be carryin' a murse, wearing crocs, and talking about your shoes on the internet.

There is no opportunity good enough to lure me to that shithole

I get that you guys don't like NYC because it's liberal blah blah. But you should know that once you get out of the city (by city I refer to Manhattan) there are a lot of hard working conservative folks in the outer boroughs who probably feel a lot like you do about the way the city is run.

But back on topic. How about my 10/22 with a 10rd mag? Is there any way to for a non-resident to legally bring even that into the city?
