If I relied solely on my state issued license I would not be able to carry in NY or NJ at all.
The first time I knew we were going to NY I got myself qualified under LEOSA (10 years ago) and have qualified every year since b/c I did not want to take any chances. My EDC is a j frame so I should be OK w/the round limit thing, but I always swap out my carry ammo for lead round nose if going to NJ even though I’ve been told LEOSA certified people are exempt.
