turkeyfeathers Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Someone said there was something in the paper the other day and I missed it. I remember something about this when the wonderful (sarcasm) SAFE ACT was brought on. I know with my non resident Utah that I have to renew it every 5 years. Does anybody know if NY is trying to do this ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ants Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Yes..It was part of the SAFE ACT. NY Permit holders are now required to re certify every 5 years. But no one seems to know what that will involve or whether or not it will cost anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadKill44 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I got a permit renewal post Safe Act shortly after moving to Ontario County. No expiration date on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I thought but wanted to make sure. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbuff Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Has anyone done it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turkeyfeathers Posted January 11, 2016 Author Share Posted January 11, 2016 I've not received anything in the mail. Only heard a mentioning of it when SAFE ACT came around and recently someone mentioned seeing something in paper. As ants said I don't think they have any idea what they are doing with it yet. Roadkill; you got a renewal in the mail ? Maybe because you changed counties perhaps ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hock3y24 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Yeah Broome county still isn't doing it or putting any expiration a on there permits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 call up your pistol clerk. they would know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadKill44 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 No. The renewal wasn't by mail. I went to the county clerks office. I just knew it was required as you move from one county to another. I don't think there is anyway county officials are tracking the movement of pistol permit holders. I don't know what would have happened if they checked me and discovered I lived in a different county. I didn't take a chance to find out with Safe Act issues in the news.

thphtm Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 The only time I had to renew is when the went to laminated lic. In our county. Sent from my SM-T817V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjb4900 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I also recall something saying if you fail to renew it's considered revoked and all those lovely new laws will apply to you.......I don't have a pistol license so am not up on that part, but might be something a license holder should keep up on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubba Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 So another law put into effect that nobody knows anything about ?! That's what I thought but wanted to make sure. Thank you I am sure I have mentioned it at least a dozen times on hetre since the safe act was passed. However, most complained about all the political posts. Anyway the state police are going to be doing the checks. Then the information will be passed onto the county judge. You will receive a letter telling you when it needs to be done. There is basically 3 years left to do so. As usual, they are putting the finishing touches on the data to do so. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anything would happen. It is a state wide permit. As long as you go through the issuing county, when ever you add or remove a handgun, I think you're good.

ants Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 You don't "renew" you "Re certify". There is no expiration date on NYS permits so there is nothing to renew. From what I have heard, you will have to re certify that certain information on you permit is correct. Mainly are these handguns and serial #'s still on your permit. But again the SAFE SCAM was pushed through so fast that the state probably isn't too sure on how to implement any off this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubba Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Well if you think they will not do a criminal and other background check, you are mistaken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ants Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Well if you think they will not do a criminal and other background check, you are mistaken I think that at the 5 year mark (from the time the SAFE ACT ,second amendment violation took effect) the state will be overwhelmed. Then what? Is everyones permit suspended until they can figure out what to do or until they run new background checks on everyone?? I doubt it. I can see it being a simple online "yes-no" re-up or it being S-canned like the ammo background check was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critter4321 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 It will no doubt take NYS at least six years to get it figured out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trial153 Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 . I'll have to look into this. PA is listed and Utah's no longer good there. Easy application, you must have a resident license in your home state. Fee is 100 upfront for four years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also never said it would be up and running. I also never said everyone would be suspended if the state does not have it going. Again I simply stated what the law says. After that you can let your imagination run wild. That is up to you, not me. I could explain in more detail, but, I believe you were one of the main complainers about all the political posts if I recall correctly , so I will leave it at that.
