It's not clear if this means NYC lost a lawsuit, or simply changed their policies based on the threat of losing a lawsuit.
 
Does this mean cross country travel with our rights intact is legal now, providing we apply and pay the fees permitting said rights…
 

Who Can Apply?​

Under the new rules, non-residents who fall into the following categories may be eligible to apply for a New York concealed carry permit:

  1. Part-time New York residents
  2. Individuals principally employed in New York
  3. Those with their principal place of business in New York
