It looks like outside of NYC, no permit or license or registration is required to carry a rifle or shotgun in the state of New York. The handgun "pistol license" requirements have recently been revised after the previous version were slapped down by the courts -- license applicants can no longer be required to provide a "proper cause" for why you need a permit. So you can walk down the same block this guy did carrying a shotgun, but not a knife.
