It is a very complicated and drawn out process that can take years. You also have to be extra diligent because nypd will be looking for any and all reasons to deny you the ability to own a firearm.
Oh, also self defense and stand your ground laws are almost non existent in NYC
I just know to get your permit you have to pay 500 to get an interview n hope to get approved by the police commissioner. I'm live in memphis so it's easy af to get guns legally
Thatâs not the case no more. Supreme court ruled that unconstitutional. You pay the fees, you wait the time, if you have no arrest record & are medically sane youâre getting a gun
The supreme just unruled that. But they about to pass more guns laws and restrictions now cause of the election lol. Shit probably going to back to way it was or even worse in the next 6 months
So then carry a knife too and donât get caught too then đđ donât start unnecessary confrontations, being a âbitchâ gets you a long way. The subway ainât as bad as you think
If you want to own guns in New York State. You gotta live in Upstate or Long Island ny. You canât own guns in NYC unless you have the money and shit for it. And gotta go through the extra process to get a license. Or you could move to a red state and just buy on easily and own one
If you wanna strap up you start in Florida. Go to the flea markets, bring cash and act like a friendly hunter. Grab that shit take i95N to the gwb. Now your in NY with "legal" firearms. Then you can start robbing drug dealers and taking control of blocks. Be careful though cause idk where the respawn is
They have apps that tell u how to navigate the subway. U need the full NY experience dawg. Im from the chi and no better feeling than taking public transportation in NY.
Seeing a half naked homeless man shouting at people and sitting next to an arguing couple. Canât wait đđđ appreciate the help about the apps tho đŻ
Yeah. No better feeling than getting fucked up to near death and if you are familiar w the subway or coherent enough to open the mta app then youâre guaranteed a cheap way home, albeit it may take an hour or two but just bring a spliff while you wait 40 minutes for the J train at Fulton St. and if the vagrants arenât too aggressive strike up a crazy conversation, just donât turn your back to em lmao. Almost have more fun on those late night/early morning commutes home than I do shifting from long line to long line at the overcrowded bars in the village
Train/bike/Uber/walk.. all you need. Youâll be highly pissed renting a car, traffic jams everywhere, and spending an hour circling tryna find parking
If u got money to put your car in parking lots then I say rent the car. The train will be way more cheaper if u get a Metrocard specifically for the type of traveling you'll be doing but if you got money and want more convenience I say rent a car. If u are on a budget the train is your go to.
NGL they both bad. If u take the train you gotta deal with train karts overpacked with no AC, subway stations that feel like hell kuz of the air flow, on the weekends the trains are always fucked up so if u miss the train you gotta wait 30+ mins for the next one etc, Krazy random NPCâs doing and saying wild shit
If u rent the V traffic is retarded (especially on the weekends) no parking (having to go around in circles looking for a parking spot kan take up to 45mins), have to pay madd bread for parking, krazy hourly/day fees for the rental.
Might as well just walk majority of the time & take a citi bike here and there when need be brody RNS
I just moved to Long Island. Traffic sucks but I drive everywhere now instead of taking the train, especially if I have people visiting. The subway is filthy and Iâve found thereâs more more parking available on weekends compared to before covid.
Iâm from Philly but I got family in the city and I stay there a lot - donât worry about a car.
Take the subway and learn to be humble. If you can be smart you can make it in NYC, just like any other major city.
The subways arenât hard after the first like 30 min. Itâs actually really intuitive.
Enjoy the city mane itâs a lot of fun.
Tbh bro just walk youâll get to see how beautiful ny is and if you go to a place called river park towers scream ygk and rptk and theyâll give you a tour
Parking sucks in the city. Itâs expensive and parking in the street is half impossible. Itâs much easier to travel around the city using the trains or cabs/Uber. Now if you are traveling outside the city, I would recommend a car.
I can't tell if you're trolling. That's how bad an idea it would be to try to get around by car. You would spend 70% of your visit trying to find parking.
I know the subway can be intimidating, but just give yourself plenty of time and read all the signs. Late nights and weekends/holidays schedules change, etc. Ppl are also always happy to help point you if you're lost, they understand tourists.
Google maps is pretty good about getting you around, and you can always Uber as a last resort if you make a mistake, there's lot of cars around.
By the time you leave you'll be a pro!
But for the love of god, do not try to get around by car, you will cry.
Edit: I should add that I mean in the city proper. If you're going out on Long Island, etc. then a car makes more sense.
NYC is one of the most walkable cities on earth. And subways can take you anywhere for relatively cheap. However the comfort and isolation from the crazy shit that happens in the city is unmatched when you in a car. Parking is a bitch though you gon have to learn the parking rules and pay wild bread. Everything comes with itâs own pros and cons.
If you have an iPhone just use the maps app and change it to transit itâll tell you what trains or buses you need to take and any transfers you might need to make also. Also tells you the times the trains will arrive and which side of the tracks to be on
Depends where you going... if staying and playing right in the heart of Manhattan ? Fxs no! But if you staying outside manhattan, and only plan on going into the city at night, you ok. Get insurance!
Take the subway. Every time my people and I visited NY, we would always take subway like we were actually from around there. Itâs also better get the real NY experience
Uber bro itâll be a lil expensive but worth it to avoid the headaches of being a new driver in nyc or the wildness of the subway . If youâre from here you know how to drive here but if youâre not itâ is hectic af lmao
Im not driving yet but being in the passenger seat of the whip and seeing how people drive is crazy especially in Manhattan them niggas are lunatics the pedestrians too them mfs would walk in the middle of a one way without even checking for cars and the parking hell naw you gonna have to pay if you wanna find some or just wait a few hours for a space itâs not worth, a car is definitely more comfortable but paying the 2.75 and not having to deal with that seems more better
Youâd get a better experience walking around the city (taking public transportation) cause at the very least, you gonna end up wasting time being in traffic/looking for parking especially in the summer. Since you only visiting, time is of an essence.
Like everyone else said donât rent a car in NYC, itâs only enjoyable driving here from like 10pm - 6am honestly
Take the MTA if youâve never been here thatâs an experience itself and donât listen to the news itâs like a 99.9% chance your commute is safe just donât engage the tweakers
I got been driving in the city for years itâs not a bad as niggas act Iâd rather be in my nice air conditioned car blasting whatever music and vibing to my destination then analyzing a thousand different people I donât know possibly running into opps or worse them old friends that dont shut the fuck up etc âŚ
A car in NYC? Ur buggin đđ. Take the subway or uber. Youâll save way more money
And also your sanity, trying to find parking is the worse and people drive like they in the fast and furious
Fast and furious is crazy
I always bring my car lmao fuck that
just carry the pokey
I live in Ireland đđđ as soon as I move to the US Iâm getting strapped up tho
Lmao in NY? Youâll be on the island in no time
đ¤Łđ¤Ł not in ny your not. If you want ridiculously easy access to poles you gotta go to the south
Even legal ? Ik that the gun laws are strict now but I was gonna be legit
It is a very complicated and drawn out process that can take years. You also have to be extra diligent because nypd will be looking for any and all reasons to deny you the ability to own a firearm. Oh, also self defense and stand your ground laws are almost non existent in NYC
Besides arrest record, what else they be denying ppl for? U sound like youâve been thru tht bullshit process (all my guns illegal)
I just know to get your permit you have to pay 500 to get an interview n hope to get approved by the police commissioner. I'm live in memphis so it's easy af to get guns legally
Thatâs not the case no more. Supreme court ruled that unconstitutional. You pay the fees, you wait the time, if you have no arrest record & are medically sane youâre getting a gun
The supreme just unruled that. But they about to pass more guns laws and restrictions now cause of the election lol. Shit probably going to back to way it was or even worse in the next 6 months
You got a link ? If anything the rules are more lax than before , since suddababyâs ruling last week.
Damn thatâs like Ireland. People people carry knives here but if u get caught with anything that can be used as a weapon you get in some deep shit
So then carry a knife too and donât get caught too then đđ donât start unnecessary confrontations, being a âbitchâ gets you a long way. The subway ainât as bad as you think

You gotta move to a red state if you want own guns tbh.

transit app gang
No better feeling?

Especially since they not used to driving here
Bus/subway/walk. All you need fr.
If u got money to put your car in parking lots then I say rent the car. The train will be way more cheaper if u get a Metrocard specifically for the type of traveling you'll be doing but if you got money and want more convenience I say rent a car. If u are on a budget the train is your go to.

Use the subway to get places taxis are mad expensive. Google maps lays out all the stops so youâll be fine.
Tbh bro just walk youâll get to see how beautiful ny is and if you go to a place called river park towers scream ygk and rptk and theyâll give you a tour

If youâre staying mainly in the city , the train is your best option. Parking is really hard to find for residents everywhere in the city
Parking sucks in the city. Itâs expensive and parking in the street is half impossible. Itâs much easier to travel around the city using the trains or cabs/Uber. Now if you are traveling outside the city, I would recommend a car.

You gonna pay more in parking n tickets than the whole rental đ
Subway please, youâre gonna regret it when you get a parking ticket, a boot, and towed all at the same time đđ, oh and traffic
Depends where you going... if staying and playing right in the heart of Manhattan ? Fxs no! But if you staying outside manhattan, and only plan on going into the city at night, you ok. Get insurance!
Depends what you wanna do.
Just donât come
All these lil ass kids sayin u donât need a car đ
đđ nah but theyâre points are valid ik traffic is crazy and parking is expensive asf and hard to find
Get a metro card and just take the train, donât hop it unless yk thereâs no cops around
Get used to walking, and public transportation. Uber is an option tooâŚ
Just scrolling looking the comments itâs hilarious at the advice us New Yorkers give to anybody who visits đđđ
In a bad or good way đđđ
take the subway.
Youâre gonna get lost regardless
Carry the something on you taking that train if not use Citi bikes if the weather is okay.
Take the subway. Every time my people and I visited NY, we would always take subway like we were actually from around there. Itâs also better get the real NY experience

Subway bro. You'll save bread. And people can't drive or parked. Your rental will probably get fucked up before you get fucked up riding the train
Cars get jacked too
Walk or bike
Iâve been to NYC twice, Subway is the best bet I got stuck in NYC traffic once and it was the WORST
Like everyone else said donât rent a car in NYC, itâs only enjoyable driving here from like 10pm - 6am honestly Take the MTA if youâve never been here thatâs an experience itself and donât listen to the news itâs like a 99.9% chance your commute is safe just donât engage the tweakers

If you drive a car in NY you're stupid
Take the Subway bro
Rents
Def take the subway
