↑Expands gun accessmodel confidence 90%
Adds exceptions allowing active and retired federal law enforcement officers (qualified under LEOSA or with a state pistol license) to possess firearms in restricted and sensitive locations, so more ability to carry them in those places.
(i) consistent with federal law, law enforcement officers who qualify to carry under the federal law enforcement officers safety act, 18 U.S.C. 926c; or (j) retired federal law enforcement officers who obtain a license for a pistol or revolver through their local licensing authority.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill amends NY Penal Law §§ 265.01-d and 265.01-e by adding exceptions for certain active and retired federal law enforcement officers to possess and carry firearms in restricted/sensitive locations that are otherwise prohibited. It also defines 'federal law enforcement officer.' These changes expand the ability to carry firearms in restricted locations. No other covered topics are substantively addressed.
