As the other comment points out, there are plenty. For example, you must be careful not to accidentally drive into New Jersey as this poor mother did awhile back:

Lawful gun owners in the Northeast must be extremely careful and aware of the nuances of transportation within and between these states.

MA and NY both require a license to possess any kind of smokeless powder firearm. MA allows black powder without a license and I am not going to guess what NY allows.

New York State does not require permits for long guns, NYC has more stringent licensing though.
