I'm a licensed NYC handgun owner with a Residence-Premises permit which allows me to carry any of my 5 licensed pistols to a pistol range for target practice. However, NYC's law states that the pistol range must be in NYC.
However, several reliable sources have told me that once I leave NYC with my pistol(s) federal laws apply. So, if I am going to a pistol range in Bristol Pa (like I occasionally do) a federal law that says I can go from a place where I am legally allowed to to possess the gun (NYC) to another place where I am legally allowed to possess the gun (the pistol range in Pa) there are no laws broken.
I'm wondering if that same law would apply if I am transporting my gun from my place of residence in NYC to a pistol range on Long Island, NY where I am legally allowed to possess the gun? I assume it does, since I've fired my guns at a range on Long Island at Mitchell Field which I believe is currently owned (or previously owned) by the US Military.
