I recently wrote to a friend who works in Law enforcement in NY City here is his answer about air gun laws in NY.

1) They are prohibited in NY City (Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens, Manhattan, etc..) unless you have secured a license from the Police Commissioner.

2) In the rest of the State, they are prohibited by anyone under the age of 16 AND they are prohibited on school grounds UNLESS "permission has been granted by the educational facility for use on their property yada yada yada....."

I have found nothing that says anything regarding possession by an adult as long as its propellant in "spring loaded or CO2".....

I suggest you contact your local Police dept and request a license

You must have watch the news about the kid who was shot for holding a BB gun in public, You are allowed to purchase and fire a BB/Pellet gun, but can ONLY in private such as your backyard, inside of your home, or in Airsoft events. You cannot fire or show to the public, however you are permitted to carry it in public, ONLY if it is concealed somewhere and not seen by others.
