The Coastie that became case law was arrested in Orange County NY. Guy didn't have creds, license suspended, was traveling with wanted criminals and was still cleared.
YMMV From Wiki: A number of other courts have held that Coast Guard boarding officers are qualified under LEOSA. In People against Benjamin L. Booth, Jr., Indictment No. 2007-940 (2007), a county court in Orange County, New York, dismissed a criminal charge against Booth, an off-duty member of the Coast Guard, who had been arrested for carrying a loaded handgun in a vehicle. The court held that Booth was authorized to carry a firearm while acting as a Coast Guard boarding officer, adding, "Although the proof at the hearing indicates that the defendant engaged in a violation of rules, regulations and policies of the United States Coast Guard by possessing a handgun for which he had no license, these violations do not act to lessen the scope of LEOSA as it is applied in this instance." |

A PA Constable was also arrested. He was later found to be covered under LEOSA.

Uninformed cops making uninformed arrests. NYC cops that know the law will not arrest you. Problem is finding one.

The additional problem in NYS is SAFE
Out of state LEOs travelling off duty in NYS run the risk of running afoul of SAFEs magazine limits for officers who are not in NYS on official duties |

It's a simple decision for me; avoid states like NY, CA, CT, et al.

NYC is actually pretty good for Police Officers. Having a shield is the same as the key to the city. That's one thing I give NYPD credit for, they honor just about any shield as if it was there own. I've never had anything but respect and professionalism when I show my shield in the city. Also let's you ride the train for free..

Heading to upstate NY to do some fly fishing next week and was wondering about this. Is it capacity or the number of rounds in the mag? If I carry my 10+2 round G26 mags dropped down to 7 rounds would I be OK?
Dont really want to carry my Snubby as my drive takes me through some shit on the way to/from home. I dont want to be made an example of or be the "test case" on this, I just wanta fish, LMAO J- |

I remember hearing a while ago that even though you only had 10 rounds in the mag, it could hold more and that was an issue? |

Any mag with a capacity of over 10 rounds is illegal, including pre-bans. The only exception is if you are in state on official business as a police officer. |

I flew up to Plattsburgh 2 weeks ago, didn't know what capacity restrictions there were so I just brought my .357 mag to carry. There's no silly rule about bullet types is there, ie. hollow points?

Doesn't matter, the 2010 amendment to LEOSA "legalized" hollowpoint ammo for those covered by LEOSA. |
