No response from Probate court within 60 days, what can I do? (Firearm conceal license)?

I applied for the Georgia Firearms License on March 18. I have 60 days to recieve a response. If I remember correctly, the 60 days is somewhat of a right to a speedy service. After 60 days, then what? They tell me to shut up and they’ll get to it when they do? In jail you have the right to a speedy trial. I’m sure it’s not an overnight process(although the world would probably spin a bit faster), but you aren’t in jail for 3 years for spitting on a sidewalk waiting for a court date. (whatever)

In the military and trying to buy a firearm in the state I’m assigned to?

I’m trying to buy a firearm in Missouri, but federal law requires you to show a government issued ID that proves that you have resided in the state that you’re purchasing a firearm from for at least 30 days. My question is being in the military is there anyway around that because I have an Oklahoma driver’s license with an Oklahoma residence on it? According to law it looks as if I can’t even purchase one in Oklahoma either because I am currently residing here in Missouri. The only thing I can think of is bring some bills with me and maybe a copy of the lease which I’m having trouble finding at the moment. The bills I do have I noticed that it only has my address on the stub that you mail in which I already mailed in my last set of bills, so what do I do? Please help!

Thanks,

Justin
I can’t believe I didn’t think of my LES, but when I checked it just now it’s only showing the address on my most recent one and I think I need one from at least 30 days ago. As for my PCS orders I’ll have to look around for them, but I’m sure I have them some where.

By the way, for whoever asked, I’m a SrA in the USAF here at Whiteman. I don’t think you can check out firearms at our BX, outdoor rec, or our armory or I would of heard of it by now for the 3 years I’ve been here do to all the hunters in my section. Our range is for OFUO I believe some bases have rec ranges. Anyways, thanks everyone for all the good insight. I think I’ll go look for my orders so I can possibly get my handgun tomorrow.
I can’t find my orders, so I’m gonna print my LES from 30 days ago since I noticed it has the zip code that it’s based on at the bottom and hopefully that will work for me. If not, I’ll just go to my MPF this week and hopefully purchase an XDM next weekend if the store still has them.
I went to the store today and I asked them this same question and they said there is a new law that became in effect about a year ago stating that the only way I can buy a firearm here in Missouri is that I have to have a photo ID that matches my current address no matter if I’m military or not to purchase a firearm. But I believe it is only another stupid Missouri law, so I guess I’ll have to drive down to Oklahoma and buy it there.

Expungement of foreign offence in USA?

I’m convicted of committing a Civilian Offence which involves Domestic Violence in Norway. The Civilian Offence was however NOT defined as a crime by the court of law. I was senteced to serve 43 hours of Community Service. After 3 years the Civilian Offence has been expunged from my record where speeding tickets are usually registered. I’ve been to the United States, Japan, Russia, China and England after the incident and have had no problem obtaining tourist visas. But if I am to apply for American Citizenship after living in the United States as an law obiding, working Engineer, would I be disqualified or have my chances reduced to obtain an American Citizenship? And if I so did obtain it, would I have my Norwegian expunged offence be registered in the American registers as NON expunged? Does it mean that my offence would have to be expunged by the american court of law as well in order to be valid as expunged in the United States? As for applying for Federal Firearms License, enlisting the army and purchasing guns, would I be disqualified even though my Civilian Offence is expunged in Norway?
BLCOHEN5 is an instant winner, unless someone can convince me otherwise.

Felony Gun Control Act Waiver to Join Military?

It has been my boyfriend’s dream to join the Navy or Marines since he was young. He migrated to the US in 2005 when he was 18 years old but just three months later got in trouble with the law. He got caught with 0 dollars in counterfeit money and was charged with 1 count possession of counterfeit money and 2 counts of possession with intent to pass or use 0 in counterfeit money. One charge of intent to pass or use was dropped but the other along with the possession charge wasn’t. In the end, he was given 3 years of probation, 50 hours of community service and asked to pay 0 fine.

When he got arrested, he was already scheduled to take the ASVAB for the Navy. He really did not know that the money was counterfeit, it was given to him by some friends who were also arrested with him but somehow got off and were never charged with anything. He was new to the country, barely spoke the language and didn’t even have the money to get a lawyer.

He was recently released from probation and has tried to speak with recruiters from the Army and Marines, he knows that it’s impossible to join the Navy with a felony but that the Army and Marines might be possible with waivers. However, he has been quite unlucky as no one seems to want to go through the trouble of helping him.

Recently, he found a Marine recruiter who was willing to help but he said my boyfriend first needed to get a waiver of the gun control act which prevents all felons from possessing firearms but he didn’t tell us how that can be done.

If anyone could help us by giving some tips on how to go through with this, it would be great.
