NYS FIREARMS LICENSE For Semi-Auto Rifles
After 2022 New York State requires a firearms license to purchase or take possession of a semi-auto Rifle. If you have a NYS Pistol Permit currently it can be amended and is sufficient to buy a semi-auto rifle but once you have your county clerk add "Semi-Auto rifle" amendment to your license.
USE this form to add "semi-auto rifle approved" to your current Pistol Permit: NYS PPB-5
NYSID is your permit number, check "amendment from" add your County name, complete your name, DOB, DL#, Address, and check "Semi-Automatic Rifle Licenses ADD" Submit this to your county clerks office to get a new permit with the endorsement added.
If you do not have NYS PIstol Permit as of now there is not a separate licensing process and class to get just a semi-auto rifle permit in the future but currently following the New Pistol license process is the only why to get this semi-auto rifle license.

NYS Firearms License/Permit Customer Feedback:
"Overall it was a great class. As much as I hated having to give up a weekend for a state requirement, it was informational, and entertaining and makes for a safer armed populace. I truly found the instruction on deadly force and the "legal" explanations very helpful. The class was great and I could truly tell that you put in a lot of time and effort into making this a high quality experience and not just a "check in the box" for a license." Luq
"I took my permit class somewhere else. I brought my wife to Iron Sight for her permit class and i realized these classes are not all the same! This class was no comparison to the course I got else-ware. I can't believe a class like this isn't required before you get a concealed carry permit. Train with professionals who know the law and understand firearms use and operation." Jim C
"Just wanted to say thank you! It was a very good class filled with a LOT of information in a just a few hours. Your presentation was very clear and you kept it at a good pace. I do realize that there is a lot more to learn and with time I will. Your help with the application was greatly appreciated. When I submitted my application this week I did so with confidence knowing it was filled out correctly thanks to your help. It felt good going into the County Pistol Permit office knowing what to expect step by step. All went smoothly thanks to the information provided at the class. The price of the class was more than reasonable and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to take this first step toward applying, Thank you!" -Amy N
"I took your class last January and had recommended it many others after having spoken to several people who took this course from other providers, none were as complete as yours." -Chuck M
"I was in your class last night and I must say you are an amazing teacher/trainer you explained things so they can be understood. This class is definitely needed and amazing and I'm thankful for all your knowledge." Brittany N
"Thank you once again for a great class. my wife and I really enjoyed it! As a former Army officer, I feel you did an outstanding job explaining gun safety especially reiterating the fact that you need to point the weapon downrange. From the perspective of an attorney, you were accurate and spot on with your explanation of the New York gun laws. You did a great job explaining that there are gray areas when it comes to self defense and Article 35. I am a member of the NRA and have about 15 years experience with gun and self defense cases." Frank
"I was required to re-take the course to apply for an another state permit. I have had my permit for many years now and have taken safety courses when I was young, I'm now 50 years old. You can't know enough about gun safety and if you learn one thing from that extra safety course it's a great thing and i learned numerous things.The instructor was great to listen and learn from so iI HIGHLY recommend this class to all. Thanks, Jim"
"I found the course to be very informative, very well planned out, and extremely helpful in providing answers to many questions that I had regarding the application process and gun safety. As mentioned, I have taken this course in the past. I have found your course to be superior to the previous course. What I enjoyed about the course was your organized presentation methods, the relevancy of the subject material, and the thorough explanation of the application and process. We stayed on course and didn't deviate much from the agenda (previous course allowed for distractions which lead to discussion of non relevant matter). I also enjoyed the fact that you kept the course very interesting. Not once did I feel bored or uninterested. The only minor negative aspect is that the course ran a little longer than I expected. But to be quite honest I didn't mind. I enjoyed all the information that was presented and I would definitely recommend your course to anyone. I will definitely consider Iron Sight for future courses and training."

"You have been extremely helpful and the class was great. You guys do an amazing job. I started shooting when i was 12, and gun my uncle made sure i knew gun safety before he even let me near a gun. I'm happy you guys bash that into people in the class, because some folks just don't get it. Thanks again for your help - Art"
