Is there any way to apply for a NY State Pistol Permit without physically living in NY?

My home of record is NY. My family lives in NY and I take leave to NY when I can. With that being said, NY doesn't accept ANY of the 49 other states' pistol permits. From what I am told, getting a NY State pistol permit can take upwards of a year. Is there anyway to get a pistol permit for military who are rarely in the state? Without a pistol permit, having a pistol in NY is federally illegal.

Don't forget that NYS Pistol permits are invalid in New York City. Another example of how government is NOT supposed to work.

Here is a link to NYS handgun laws:

One of the reasons I moved out of Upstate New York when I graduated High School and never went back.
