Where exceptions made for security personal and first responders for this 7 round magazine limit? I can't think of many modern carry pistols that hold only 7 rounds? Will all the police departments in NY have to go back to revolvers?

Those you mention are given a blanket exemption from all the offending sections. They are not granted permission to carry hi-caps, they are simply not prohibited from it:

1. Possession of any of the weapons, instruments, appliances or substances specified in sections 265.01, 265.02, 265.03, 265.04, 265.05 and 270.05 by the following:
(a) Persons in the military service of the state of New York when duly authorized by regulations issued by the adjutant general to possess the same.
(b) Police officers as defined in subdivision thirty-four of section 1.20 of the criminal procedure law.
(c) Peace officers as defined by section 2.10 of the criminal procedure law.
