i didnt know exactly where to post this, so dont be suprised if you happen to see this over in the guns forum

What is the process for getting a hand gun permit and or concealed weapons permit in New York? I know you have to be 21, but other than that i am clueless.
Is it hard to get? What are the requirements and process? Does it cost alot of money? Where do you go to apply for one?

I sitll have a few months before i turn 21, and who knows if I'll even get one after that, but any help would be appreciated.
thanks.

oh, and i am not referring to new york city.
