So no ss number needed when you apply?

[GunWebsites]

@machineguntongue

it is optional

[Mrcaffinebean]

Don't you think it a waste of taxpayer money to have a booth at SHOT show?

[GunWebsites]

@Mrcaffinebean

no way, they are there to answer questions about the process. Half of the people at SHOT (most ofthe people walking around) own gun shops and sell guns for a living.. It is great that they are there IMO

Better than never getting to meet them

Now if you want to talk cost of the fancy booth propaganda.. well thats another story, that stuff don't look cheap

Folding chairs and a card table would work IMO

[ALAPINO]

Hmmm, it's 10 now? I guess they added a new one.

Did he happen to mention if the FFL/Initiator was obliged to take further action if there is a denial, say fugitive situation?

[GunWebsites]

@ALAPINO

been these 10 since the 1968 GCAs

More dictatorial federal government regulations. I do not recall seeing an asterisk besides the second amendment when it comes to the right of the people to own weaponry. Everyone needs to research the long list of ridiculous felonies there are and how the federal government uses them to further subjugate people.

It seems if one choses to get a medical marijuana card, they'd throw away their right to own a firearm.

@DragonfyreWMVM how sad,

[DragonfyreWMVM]

@chitown1966 They could and i've seen vets get stripped of their gun rights before.

[DragonfyreWMVM]

FYI, they tend to make many mistakes! I've been delayed and denied before and it's been their mistake. If you ever get denied and you feel it was a wrongful denial, file your appeal. When I got denied, it confused the gun shop owner who was familiar with me knowing I wasn't a felon or had any of the other prohibiting factors on my record. File the appeal, get a set of your prints and file for the VAF UPIN if need be.

[SuperRip7]

This is interesting.

Glad I dont have to worry about this as for I just bought my ever first AR-15 my NICS background check's only take 5 mins and im out the door

[chitown1966]

how about veterans who have PTSD or depression? does the VA share that? i

[TheSOAK78]

Next time ask why it takes so damn long to process an appeal or VAF. 150+ days to update their stuff is ridiculous, especially it only takes them a couple of hours to deny you.

[metalhead2508]

Has anyone here ever been convicted of a felony, but pleaded under the First Offenders Act? You keep your right to vote, and after you complete probation, all civil liberties are restored. INCLUDING all firearm rights. I used this act back in 2006 just so I could keep my rights to a firearm afterwards. Has anyone had any problems buying a firearm after their rights have been restored?

[bubber25]

i was denied by this nics stuff. Tried to get a gun at a gunshow here in nashville. I have NEVER been in any trouble whatsoever and no misdemeanors or anything. Still trying to find out why i was denied and they arent responding at all. anyone else been through this?
