Former resident with "valid" CCW license in NY. 3 Years since move to FL (where I am now) technically have CCW in both. Is the NY still valid? I would like to gift a beautiful 1911 handgun to my old man that I picked up without thinking about the x-fer. I still have my CCW in NY but obviously does not have this weapon on it. Is there a way to get this to him legally? TIA. Charlie |
| Do you own it legally in Florida? If you do have a Florida FFL send it to a NY FFL. Your father will have to have it put on his pistol license and can pick it up from the NY dealer. If he doesn't have a pistol license he needs to get one before he can legally own it. |
You moved out of NYS, per your post. I assume that means you no longer maintain a NYS residence. This means that you no longer have a valid NYS permit. Oh, you may have failed to surrender your old permit; that doesn't mean that your permit is still valid. As others have said, send the handgun to a NYS FFL. Due to the hassles the NYSP will give the dealer, it would behoove you to send through an FFL at your end. |
