Default Anyone here have a carry permit?

Hey guys anyone on LI have a carry permit? Ive been toying with the idea of getting a handgun and getting a carry permit...

I would be getting it for my business since i deal a lot in cash transactions so ive heard it isn't hard to get a carry permit. Anyone know how long it takes to get a carry permit?

Also any suggestions on what piece i should get that would be ideal to be able to be carried around?

It takes some time to get get it. Usually around 6-8 months. If your going to try and get it for the business reason your going to have to show bank statements to them. I forgot the amount you have to show but i remember it being a decent amount.

thx. I know the amount is $4000 in cash deposits per week. However, they say that they will waive that if you have a reason to beleive your business is dangerous; etc.

You do realize that its nearly impossible to get a CCW in NYC. NYS CCW permits apply to any other county in NY besides NYC. So if you did happen to get a CCW permit for NYS, you would need to get it validated in NYC in order for it to be valid. There are VERY few people outside of law enforcement that have a CCW in NYC.

The main reason i want it is because i do maybe $2-4k in cash business a week + my phone shipments + accessories that i pick up sometimes ranges anywhere from $10-$40k
Not going to happen. You would need to prove that you do things OUT OF THE ORDINARY, like make 250K deposits at 11pm. Doing 4000 in cash business is not enough to get a CCW in NY.

A friend of mine is in the diamond business, and transports (on himself) 3MM worth of diamonds on him, and was denied.

The above is

1)For LONG ISLAND ONLY. Manhattan/Queens/BK, etc is not going to happen, so don't bother.

2)For a CCW, not personal home/range use.

Doesn't it say in my OP that this is for Long Island?
