=No change to gun accessmodel confidence 80%
Requires expedited (60-day) processing of pistol permit applications for active military members who hold an out-of-state permit, with no change to background check requirements themselves.
An application for a license pursuant to this section for any active member of the armed forces of the United States shall be acted upon by the licensing officer within sixty days of the date of submission of such an application to the appropriate authority provided such active member of the armed forces is duly licensed to carry a pistol or firearm by another jurisdiction within the United States.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill expands the ability to carry firearms in NY for active military members with valid out-of-state permits (temporary reciprocity and during pending applications) and speeds up their NY permit processing without altering substantive eligibility or background check rules.
