I'm with you on that mod. 7 acres to myself, high tension lines in mback, and one neighbor is second home. Ranges, we dont need no ranges.

Just registered today, live in the Rochester suburbs. Great forum for handgun information, especially for novices (like myself). Have had my permit to carry since 2004. Not sure how it works outside of Monroe county, but it took exactly 6 months to the day to get my permit. Just picked up a Smith and Wesson semiauto model 3919, very pleased with it so far.

i hate monroe county cheap green paper permits. down here in livingston they are almost like a drivers lic

Try comming to Buffalo.. Erie County is horable to get a permit in. Took me 18 months to get a permit here, and I work for the Fed. govt. Not to mention the pain in the butt it is to purchase a firearm and have it placed on your permit... And full carry, forgetabout it in Erie County, they've started switching people back to target/hunting only if you dont have a valid reason for carrying..

A few ranges here on LI. I go to LI Shooting on Freeman Ave Islip, NY.
No carry permits on LI unless you are retired LE. Best you can do is Target Permit or Business Carry.
I have a 6" Colt "Nickel" Python for sale in Mint condition.

Originally hail from faaaaaaaaaar upstate (Franklin County), and currently reside (when I'm not over here in the big sandbox) in Jefferson County. It took me about 4 1/2 months to get my permit in Franklin Co. about nine years ago, and the fact that it's good for life is probably the only reason I'll never give up my NY residency. As far as ranges, I wouldn't know... I'm part of the "open the back door and start shooting" crowd. I built a nice 50 yard range right behind the house (ok, brush-hawged and made target holders for... nothing fancy), and have a single-lane 300+ yard range as well for my long guns. It has been a PITA finding a quality gun shop near where I live now (I don't consider Gander Mountain quality, sorry), but I'm willing to make the couple-hour long drive back to where my family lives to do business with the same gun shop that both my grandfathers used.

Nassau county on Long Island here.

I'm in Orange County and am waiting for my permit.

You should check out Blue Mountain. They have a great outdoor range and it's inexpensive.

Hi, just applied for my ccp up here in dutchess county.
hope it dont take to long.

Suburbs of Rochester here. Hopefully making my first purchase soon.

I'm from Cortland County just south of Syracuse....... but I've never been to Hong Kong...... In the immortal words of The King of Queens "I don't leave America" ..........

Seriously though that is the hell of a commute......I know the job market in CNY is not the best but C'mon you couldn't find something closer? ....lol....

To anyone in the Rochester area...

Are there any decent ranges that do not require you to be a member? Membership isn't something that I'd be against, so any that don't cost an arm and a leg to join, I would entertain. I unfortunately don't live in the country, so my backyard is out of the question. Thanks

New member from Broome County. Binghamton, NY area. Applying soon for CCW although I hear in my county it can be difficult to get approved for CCW permit.

Hi all,
Just registered today and I wanted to say hi.
I used to have a permit in PA, however I since I bounce around so much I'm having trouble getting to know people long enough to act as "character" references. So I just go back to Erie sometimes on the weekend for fun.

GO4IT!
Will
