My brother and I are not the same. We have different opinions, experiences, educations, hobbies, friends...etc. So I can not say if he "had a problem" with it in the same regard that I do. I do know that he did not say god, he just said "so help me.", which I believe it should be, regardless if we have the same objections or not. Your religious beliefs should have no bearing on your civic duty, you are a solider of the constitution, not a solider of the church you belong to and you must not blur the two. You should only need to be backed by your word as a decent person, not by who you gave it to.

First of all grats! I doubt most Americans could even pass the test for citizenship, myself included!

As for your religious beliefs, I believe you fall under agnostic. (dont know, dont care)

For the gun license, in NJ you can go to a range without a license and rent a gun to shoot. if you dont plan to own or carry, this might be an option, unless NY is different.


What was your path to getting a green card? H1B visa?

My wife is a dual citizen AU/US so I got a green card when we came here.

Generally, in NY you cannot shoot a handgun without a handgun permit and I am unaware of any shop that would rent a handgun since TNT Guns in Floral Park, NY relocated to another shop without a range in the basement.
If you need information on local shooting, drop me a PM and I can fill you in about the NY ranges. I also live in Queens.

From what I've been told you can't even pass through NY with a handgun in your car unless you have it registered there...or something like that. I know when I use to live in NJ and we would head out to a range in PA we would have to travel around this one NY town (even though it was quicker to go through) because of it. Again, that is what I was told by a guy I was with that was like deathly afraid of it, but I couldn't find the law and didn't want to find out the hard way.

http://www.handgunlaw.us/

The best way to travel through NY or any state that has restrict ion is to carry a copy of Title 19­Part 1­
Chapter 44 926A pf the federal code with you. Some law enforcement may not know the law. DO
keep the firearm in a locked box. Keep ammo in another locked box. No ammo in Magazines or speed
loaders. In the t runk or if no trunk as far back in the vehicle as possible in a locked box. This covers all
bases. All of this may not be necessary but it may save you some gr ief.

Thanks Ken.

I've heard the separate locked box theory somewhere. I think that's what's required when taking a handgun to a range with just a simple handgun license (there are several levels).
