FFL-NY Compliance Primer
This is the 3-ring binder produced for the FFL seminars presented 12.05.2024 (Kingston) and 12.09.2024 (Lake Placid) to launch the statewide FFL conversation around the 2022 new NYS compliance mandates housed in NY General Business Law section 875. It remains THE working compliance primer as of 10.2025.
Section I: where are we and how did we get here? A section about NY S.4970-A, passage, lack of stakeholder input, and non-existent NYS Police regulations.
Section II: where can I go to find resources? A section on where I go to find resources, where I’ve put resources to help you, and where I’m going in 2025 to try to help to stabilize our industry in New York.
Section III: the structure of NY Gen Bus 875 and 9 of its selected details. This section covers, one at a time:
1 - “Periodic premises inspections”
2 - “Annual certification of compliance”
3 - “Security plan”
4 - After hours storage of firearms
5 - Ammunition out-of-reach of customers
6 - Security alarm system with central monitoring
7 - Video recording devices…
8 - …with 2-year storage
9 - Employee training with recordkeeping.
Section IV: what we’re up against. This directs you to the NYSP “Annual Gun Dealer Inspection Report 2023” and the decline in FFL Type-01/02 in NY since the new laws were signed. Updated with the (delinquent) 2024 report.
Section V: practical application techniques. This section gives you pro-tips and strategies for finding your pathway towards compliance for NY Gen Bus Law 875, from the “cheap and easy” through to “complex/expensive.”
The notebook also includes a 10-document appendix, from the bill, to a 6-page chart from Gazzola v. Hochul of the NYSP responsibilities, to example pages from the NYSP website, two examples of the NYSP “checklists,” the NYSP “Gun Dealer Inspection Criteria,” and documents from two new FFL state court cases against the NY Attorney General over extra-judicial subpoenas, plus the NYS DEC website pages that give different answers than does the NYSP.
These materials are prepared for FFLs Type-01/02 with business premises in New York. The materials are also suitable for any interested FFL, attorney in the field of representation of FFLs, and legislators/staff.
Shipping via USPS media mail will be added at check-out.
