If Congress passes a federal right-to-carry law, it’s “certainly possible” that within a year or two, New York tourists might be able to carry a concealed weapon as they tour the city, said Robert Spitzer, a gun politics expert at SUNY Cortland.

Does that mean that I, as holder of a New York State pistol permit, would also be able to carry in New York City? It's about time.

Why do New Yorkers get so high-and-mighty about other states' licensing procedures? New York State currently has no training requirement for CCW. Texans have to pass a proficiency test for theirs.
