Here’s The States That Recognize NY Pistol Permits

There is a new bill that is pending to become law that would allow those with concealed carry permits to travel to other states that allow for individuals to carry concealed. If you have a New York issued permit, where can you currently travel to with your gun on you?

I found this helpful map that shows what states recognize a New York permit.

Here is how the pending bill/law looks on Congress' website:

Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017

This bill amends the federal criminal code to allow a qualified individual to carry a concealed handgun into or possess a concealed handgun in another state that allows individuals to carry concealed firearms.

A qualified individual must: (1) be eligible to possess, transport, or receive a firearm under federal law; (2) carry a valid photo identification document; and (3) carry a valid concealed carry permit issued by, or be eligible to carry a concealed firearm in, his or her state of residence.

Additionally, the bill specifies that a qualified individual who lawfully carries or possesses a concealed handgun in another state: (1) is not subject to the federal prohibition on possessing a firearm in a school zone, and (2) may carry or possess the concealed handgun in federally owned lands that are open to the public.
