Attached is a copy of a NYS pistol license. If I understand correctly every license is a carry permit but may have restrictions put on it which actually prevent it from being a CCW permit. Is that clear as mud?

 

Now every handgun owned is typed in on your permit.

 

So, how many of you would have a 52 card deck of cards?

It is electronic now and they are added and deleted in the PD database....you have a credit card type plastic license etc..

 

Or so the fellas at work tell me....

Yep. it's the size of an average credit card with picture and magnetic strip conceivably in order to record and electronically retrieve owner's firearms info .

Well that's a lot better. Can you imagine carrying your collection in your wallet?
