Lol, is there any point in even applying in NY without a valid reason?
I haven't done it yet, but I plan on getting a license and gun.
And what constitutes a good reason?
Why?Your first answer should answer this.
Depends on where. NYC has crazy liberal government and so gun control laws are extremely strict. You need to provide reasons etc. However leave the city and already in Rockland county it's a different world. NY is a "may issue" state which means that the local gov has discretion with whether or not to give a license but usually they grant it to someone even "just for" home defense. Besides needing signatures from everyone living with you (don't lie on that if you know what's good for you) it's actually quite easy.

Is a hassle and expensive to get a license to own in NYC. The real challenge is a carry permit
Right. I read that only current/former law enforcement can get. Is that true?
I love this. Here we have people who figure out every "khap" in the book when it comes to airlines and credit card companies and they can't figure out how to deal with strict NY gun laws? Where there's a will, there's a way. Use your "gemara kop" the same way you figured out how to get 5 Sapphires in a year.
Location?
Signatures from everyone living with you?
Out of trouble-state area. In a "shall issue" state.
For those that answered that they plan on getting one eventually, what factors are preventing you from getting now instead of eventually?
FL or TX?
42/50 states are shall issue.
What are good substantial reasons in NYC? What if you work in Harlem?
