Maddy summaryThis New York bill prohibits openly carrying a rifle or shotgun in a visible manner on public property. It defines "openly carries" as carrying the firearm in a way that makes it visible to others. The law includes 15 specific exemptions, such as for hunters with permits, law enforcement officers, military personnel on duty, individuals on private property with permission, and those participating in historical reenactments or biathlon events. These exemptions allow open carry under defined circumstances while banning it for the general public in most public settings.
