This issue is very specific to my location and am hoping there are a few of you who could help me out.
I currently live in Albany county and in the town of Colonie. I submitted my paperwork to the police department for my pistol permit in mid July and noted on the application that I will be going right for my unrestricted carry. I just received a letter from the New York state Supreme Court informing me of an appointment to show up in court to explain "proper cause" - that is "a special need for self protection distinguishable from that of the general community or of persons engaged in the same profession."
I still haven't received a letter saying my basic permit was approved and hopefully me not having a pistol permit for a certain time period will hurt my chances of getting my unrestricted.
I currently work night shift at a fabrication plant and during my off days I keep the night shift schedule and run errands usually at night at 24 hour stores. The parking lot alone is a very sketchy environment at 2 am when I would do some light grocery shopping. This and the fact that I want to be able to protect myself whenever and wherever I am is my argument as of now
If anyone has any experience in this process and can shed some light on it is greatly appreciate it, thanks!
PS there is a thread already on this site pertaining to this exact situation, but it's from a few years ago and was hoping to get more recent experiences.
