You know how the Supremes say gun laws have to be "rooted in our nation's history"?

3. Not impossible or all that difficult anymore.

The Bruen decision overturned NY's laws, as well as all other states with "may issue" permitting schemes for concealed carry. They now have to issue carry permits to all applicants who meet the statutory requirements. No special need is required. For New York, you need to complete a training course, provide character references and social media accounts, list spouse or domestic partner and all other adults who live with the applicant, and complete a in person interview with the licensing authority. Do that, plus pass the background check and pay the related fees and they must issue you a permit to carry.

Parts of the new law is being challenged in court, so currently NY probably still has the most strict laws, it remains to be seen if they will survive the additional court challenges.
