NYC STILL PURCHASE AUTHORIZATION update

[Onegunnotenough]

Well, Our wonderful new C.O at Police plaza is bending a bit, few people yesterday got to add 1 gun after having only 1 or 2 on current permit. So far , we don't know what will happen if you apply and own over 5. Please, guys n gals, if any of you have a request out and get denied,let me know. We are putting together a list of how many denials are going out and if you belong to a club, it would be good to get on board. The president of Colonial in Staten island is trying to get a class action together if this doesn't stop. It is your right to buy as many as you want, every 90 days anyway. There is no number on any Nyc books on how many guns you can own. Not yet anyway. So if your denied, let me know the club you belong to and need copy of denial letter. Thanks and keep the faith. it would be great if you could get your club to enjoin if it goes the distance.

Not that it helps your present day case but if I search my paper work I can produce a denial letter over 20 yrs ago stating the same. DENIED due to insufficient requirement of a second firearm. So this is nothing new!

Thanks for the update. Please keep us posted. I'm currently at 4 and will probably stay there since i refuse to allow spot inspections, but i am very interested in this turn of events.

Wonder whats gonna happen the you renew with like 10-20 on there. I saw a guy once at 1pp looking at his serials on his license with like 200 guns on there.

Ok, as of this Monday I am hearing all those who have been refused and or denied will be getting another letter and a purchase auth will be issued at the request of the denied. I guess someone told the C.O that this is the United states of America and there is something called the 2nd amendment. Even that cant be fully subdued here in Nyc. So hopefully this is over. Please, anyone who gets a purchase auth,let us know here.....

Nice! Where'd you get that info if you don't mind me asking?

Really...... Im actually due to send in a PA today. Wonder if I should press my luck and send in the request.

Mailing mine in tomorrow. Figured I would get a Christmas/We Won gift for myself.
If they deny me I can't be paying for a lawyer so I will stay with my current set up

You will be fine. As far as I heard,he was told he couldn't deny anyone on that basis. All is back to normal. NYC normal anyway

SO much for the Shooting sports!
just shows you that some police and Most politicians know nothing about guns!

I had a huge discussion with a Know it all Lawyer (redundant) about guns, he didn't understand until i explained it as a set of golf clubs.

he understood, but still said nobody should have more than one pistol, rifle and shotgun.

I don't get why they care, the baddest ass drug lord still can only shoot one at a time. what do they think is going to happen if you've got "too many" ? What possible reason can they even think they have to say "no" to the second one ?

I'm guessing they have watched the Matrix movies (remember Keanu Reeves when he stormed the building) too many times, and they think that we are all going to run around with 10+ guns under our long coats while creating havoc and mayhem in the streets of Gotham!

Timely. I was just speaking to my new XO who was one pushed out during the "review" over the recent scandal. He said he was first told he could stay and was being considered to take over, but then the powers that be decided that he had approved too many new licenses so he didn't belong. He warned that the new CO is very anti-gun and was chosen specifically for that reason.

Of Course he's anti. Gun. Only he should be able to have and carry one..

Well just came back from 1PP and added a 1911 to my license. Not a bad experience at all this time.

 

[RobotMachine]

Any recent turnaround times? I mailed in a request on 1/10 and am still waiting, but it's within the expected time still.

 

[Automan21]

I think mine took about a month. You should get yours in a few days.

 

[RobotMachine]

It came in today's mail

 

[Automan21]

There you go. Have fun at 1 PP.

 

[Automan21]

For anyone who’s guessing how long it takes now. I mailed my request on Jan 8 2018, Still waiting.

I have not put in a purchase request since they started this electronic computer hurdle designed to frustrate us even more. Do we still mail it in first? Then pick it up, then buy the gun, then go for inspection?

Jeez idk. It’s computerized now????

I put my request via mail on 3/1/18, still waiting, ill update when I get mine so you have an idea how long it takes. From what i read online, applications and renewals are done online now but they didnt mention anything about the purchase form.

PA is still mailed in.

 

[Automan21]

I got mine and it took 2 months to get

 

[SeaOtter]

Just got mine today finally, I was getting ready to call them to make sure it was received. Sent the request in 3/1/18 received it today 5/22/18 but it was post marked 5/17/18. So about 2.5 month wait.

 

[RooftopKorean]

I mailed mine on 3/1/2019 and I'm still waiting.

 

[Deplorable Me]

Wonder what would happen if they treated voters like firearms owners?

 

[RooftopKorean]

I called on 3/26 to follow up and see if they received my form. The Senior Police Administrative Aide I spoke with refused to check if my request for the Purchase Authorization form arrived and told me that it can now take 4-6 weeks to be approved for a PA.

I questioned her as to why so long and she said that because NYPD cannot take people at their word when they ask if they have not commited a crime since their last purchase so they do an entire investigation again just for a PA.

I said if I already have my premise permit why do can't you just run a background check and then she hung up on me.

Good ole NYPD civilian fucksticks.
