hunter49 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Has any one tried to use the online Safe Act recertification site with any luck? I have tried & I get almost to the end & the dam page expires! Then I try again & the same thing happens, what's up with that? I have also tried to print the form & that has not worked. Also has any one let them that they are recertifying under protest of the NY Safe Act? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmon_Run Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Major frustration from recertification site. First attempt: page expired before completion Second: after complete listing all my handguns it wouldn’t save Third: saved and then was “pending” for four months before “accepted” . Unable to print the confirmation however. Very typical New York State. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckmaster7600 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 I'm not much of a conspiracy guy but it certainly seems to me that they are trying to make it so hard and frustrating that many just give up.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyantler Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 I didn't have any problem, but I did it last January when it was first announced. I didn't want to get caught up in the mass rush to get on the site last minute like most permit holders are doing... which is probably causing the problems.

Dinsdale Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 So I haven't done mine so I went to the site..... Entered data for 3 handguns, started at 5:13 and was done in 10 minutes by the clock and printed a receipt. One suggestion is they have a "save for later" feature; may want to do that and then re enter the system to continue, that should give a fresh clock to start with for the next entry period. I'll say I'm glad its not for rifles or I'd be there for a spell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ADK Native Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 I would not recertify on the internet. Who knows who is spying on all that personal information with your address and list of handguns? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The entire database is essentially available on-line for anyone who knows how to access it. Just sayin'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hunter49 Posted December 27, 2017 Author Share Posted December 27, 2017 (edited) Here is another stupid thing they do. They send out a letter telling you to recertify, Why don't they just send out the 1 page form, let us fill it out & send it back? I also saw that the county clerks want to meet with the governor before the January 31 dead line because they have no idea what or how to keep track of the recertification info. 4 hours ago, bugsNbows said: Stupid law.

I'm not a hacker, and I would have no knowledge at all of how to access that information. A close friend of mine is a retired NYSP Captain who mentioned the vulnerability to me while we were discussing the SAFE act when it was passed. Their IT system is so broad that security in the gun registration part was not generally a top priority. I hope it's seriously on their radar after nearly five years, though, considering the information they're collecting. I'm making no accusations here, just relaying information. That said, it probably wouldn't be a good idea try to re-certify on a Wi-Fi connection at the local coffee shop either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlammerhirt Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Just did mine online....took maybe 15 minutes max. Was a pretty straight forward and seamless process.Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fasteddie Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 I mailed mine out today . Took it up to the Post Office and paid $6.59 to have it sent CERTIFIED . According to the local news , only about 50% of Wayne County permit holders have sent in paperwork or via computer so far . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five Seasons Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Got my letter last week. Will wait till November-ish when I near the 5 years to do it. As I understand that’s how it works?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
