New York A05734 allows police officers to apply for a firearms license valid throughout the state.
New York A05734 amends the penal law to streamline the process for police officers to obtain a license to carry and possess firearms. The bill mandates that police officers can apply for a license that is valid in every county and city in the state. It requires licensing officers to process applications within six months, with delays only permissible for good cause. A police officer's certification of good standing from their law enforcement agency serves as presumptive evidence of fitness.
