It's interesting that a NYC premises permit allows hunting use. Under NYS law a permit that is restricted to hunting is a concealed carry permit as there is no provision for open carry even while hunting. Maybe they mean you can carry your pistol a field while hunting in a locked container with another locked container for the ammo. When you see a critter you quickly unlock both containers, lock and load, blast away, quickly unload and lock everything back up before they arrest you.
There are an estimated 1-2 million "illegal" handguns in NYC so it's pretty obvious the license restrictions only have an effect on law abiding citizens. As usual NYC can KMA.
These are the licenses that are currently being issued in NYC.
