Sensitive locations are government buildings and properties which are off-limits to concealed carry licensees. A restricted location is private property and the property owner must give a licensee specific permission or post a sign allowing guns on the premises. It should be noted that as of the date of this response the constitutionality of the CCIA is being litigated and the laws governing concealed carry in New York may change in the future.

Some keywords to consider: Professional, knowledgeable, helpful, timely. Going with Advanced Protection Consultants LLC was worth the price for ΓÇ£peace of mindΓÇ¥ and clarity especially with the many changing laws that can discourage, hinder, or otherwise misguide proper submissions for the different services they offer. Greatly appreciate having the extra eyes to ensure everything needed was organized and addressed timely. Thank you.

Bottom line I would have failed and become frustrated with the process and the fluid situation of changes to the laws and the application process without Arnold's help at Pistol Licence Specialists of New York. What he says is spot on. I received my concealed carry and rifle shotgun permit approvals after a little over a year. Details matter and they are experts at the fine details regarding your submissions to the NYPD.
