David, get in touch with the NYSRPA and tell them about your experience with the dealer refusing to open because of New York State's decision not to declare gun stores "essential".
This is in direct contravention to the executive order (Revised 328) by President Trump which does declare gun stores "Essential".
When North Carolina and several lower level governments here were reminded of the Federal order's revision, they quietly dropped their opposition and allowed stores across the state to open.
I expect that not to do so is an unconstitutional infringement and would be found as such in Federal court. Your NYSRPA may be contemplating a lawsuit and you personally would have standing.
At GRNC, we engaged with GOA nationally to prepare for the lawsuits if needed. Contact me if you'd like background.
