YES! It is fully legal. Here is a direct quote from the NYPD’s website:
“Working with Handgun License Consulting Firms
Consulting companies are not required to be used to apply for New York City handgun licenses or rifle/shotgun permits. These firms cannot obtain a handgun license or rifle/shotgun permit for you if you do not qualify, nor can they expedite your application. As an applicant, you should be aware that such services are not required or endorsed by the New York City Police Department and that only an attorney licensed by the State of New York can represent you before the License Division. You should also understand that any fees you pay to a consulting firm are in addition to those required by law and collected by the License Division. Neither the License Division nor consulting companies can guarantee the issuance of a handgun license or rifle/shotgun permit to any person. Each application is reviewed on its merits and under the qualifying criteria set forth by law.”
-
With each permit you are allowed to register 2 firearms. That includes 2 for a concealed carry permit, 2 for a premise permit, and 2 for a rifle / shotgun permit.
Each permit allows you to purchase one firearm every 3 months.
