maximum of either 6-25 years imprisonment, $30,000 in fines, or a combination of both.
If you own a handgun and do not have a New York state pistol permit, you should immediately bring it to the
Military Police Station to register the weapon and have it stored in the Fort Drum Directorate of Emergency Ser-
vices arms room until arrangements can be made to store them in your unit arms room.
