\"\"<\/a>New York State’s new concealed weapons carry law<\/strong> goes into effect today along with other new gun control<\/strong> measures.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, a U.S. District judge<\/strong> in Syracuse rejected a request by Gun Owners of America Inc.<\/strong> and others for an order to halt the roll-out of the state\u2019s Concealed Carry Improvement Act<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The judge did say the group could amend and refile their request for a preliminary injunction.<\/p>\n

New York lawmakers passed the new law this summer after the U.S. Supreme Court<\/strong> invalidated the state\u2019s previous restrictions on concealed weapons permits.<\/p>\n

The new law contains strengthened background checks and firearm safety and live-fire training for individuals seeking to obtain concealed carry permits; prohibits concealed carry permit holders from bringing their firearms into sensitive locations, including Times Square, bars, libraries, schools, government buildings and hospitals, among others; and requires renewal or recertification of permits every three years.<\/p>\n

New permitting and minimum age requirements for semi-automatic rifles takes effect this Sunday, September 4. After that date, an individual must be at least 21 years old and have a permit prior to purchasing or taking possession of a semiautomatic rifle. These new requirements were included in a package of legislation in response to the racially motivated mass shooting in Buffalo this spring. Licenses are not required for individuals who possessed semiautomatic rifles before September 4, 2022.<\/p>\n

Governor Kathy Hochul<\/strong> announced a new Gun Safety Website to provide the public, gun owners, and gun dealers with comprehensive information about all of the new requirements under state law.
