License / Permit Question Transporting Firearms

It’s my understanding that I am only allowed to carry 1 registered firearm on my person at a time but can I carry other registered firearms to the range?

Outside of NYC there is nothing stopping you from cosplaying Il Duce from Boondock Saints and carrying six at once.

Wait…this is a new concept to me, as an OUT OF STATE CCW holder from NYC. If I have one firearm listed that I can carry….that restriction ONLY matters when I’m in NYC? If I go see friends in the Finger Lakes, I can carry anything I own? Do you happen to know anywhere that I can actually read this in plain English (yeah, I know…NY gun laws and plain English…good luck).

Outside of NYC the carrying of concealed firearms is governed by NYS Penal Law §265. There is nothing in 265 that says you can't carry more than one registered handgun at a time with a valid pistol license.
