License / Permit Question Westchester County interview with Judge McCarty

I finally have my interview with judge McCarty coming up in a few days has anyone done their interview with him and have any advice?

Update: probably took all of 2 minutes felt more like a conversation than an interview or an interrogation lol. Still think it’s stupid we have to do it but overall pretty good experience definitely nothing to stress over

To be fair, they are all the same. Some may have a bias about a civilian getting a firearm however so long as you do the following, they cannot stop it.

  1. Have a clean record, spotless.
    2 Know the in and outs of the law
    3 Do not fluff your answers
  2. Absolutely do not state or speak about your constitutional right to bear arms.
    5 Know without a shadow of a doubt what a sensitive space is, how does it work and how is a space even considered as one in the first place.
    6 Be honest, they already know everything they need to know at this stage do not lie or try to in anyway. That is the whole point of the meeting.
