When is Obama going to start banning guns like the NRA told me he would?

admin — Fri, 11 Feb 2011 23:41:07 +0000

During the 2008 campaign, I received numerous letters and emails from the NRA stating that Obama had the following 10 point plan -

1.) Ban use of firearms for home defense
2.) Pass Federal laws eliminating your Right-to-Carry
3.) Ban the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns
4.) Close down 90% of the gun shops in America
5.) Ban rifle ammunition commonly used for hunting and sport shooting
6.) Increase federal taxed on guns and ammunition by 500 percent
7.) Restore voting rights for five million criminals including those who have been convicted of using a gun to commit a violent crime
8.) Expand the Clinton semi-auto ban to include millions more firearms
9.) Mandate a government issued license to purchase a firearm
10.) Appoint judges to the U.S. Supreme Court and Federal judiciary who share his views on the Second Amendment

I’m sure many of you remember receiving the same letter. His first term is over halfway done now, when will he begin to enact these laws?

Surely the NRA couldn’t have misled me in attempt to scare people into voting Republican, could they?

Do you need a background check for gun purchases?

admin — Wed, 09 Feb 2011 00:01:44 +0000

Concealed and open carry laws I’m informed of, and I know that a state can, if it chooses to, require gun dealers to perform background checks (the National Instant Background Check System, or something along those lines), but I recall reading somewhere that it was ruled unconstitutional for the federal government to require states to mandate these checks. Is that true? If so, in which states do people NOT need to pass a background check to buy at a dealership? Or does other firearms legislation (1934 and 1968, et al) bypass this by making Federal Firearms licenses mandatory and, therefore, enabling back-door blanket background check requirements in all states? Such confusion. x_x

Help with handgun laws.?

admin — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 00:00:31 +0000

I go to college in Arizona and am a legal resident of Kansas. My apartment got broken into for the 3rd time a day or so ago and I really sick and tired of this. I am looking to exercise my right to bear arms now for protection. Arizona law says you have to be a legal resident to buy a handgun from this state. I was wondering if I purchased a handgun online from a dealer in Kansas could it be shipped down here(Arizona) to a licensed dealer with a FFL (Federal Firearms License) to be handed off to me?

Do you have to have a FFL to sell ammunition?

admin — Wed, 18 Aug 2010 14:08:51 +0000

I am helping out a business for an outdoors site and I need to know if you need a Federal Firearms license to sell ammunition Related posts: Does www.fastfire.biz actually sell bullet-firing automatic guns? What is the process to legally sell an AR15 in Arizona? Starting an online guns and ammo store? Related posts:

Does the Federal Loophole still exist? I believe it does… but I am not certain…?

admin — Wed, 04 Aug 2010 14:03:47 +0000

I am wondering if the Federal Firearms Law(s, there are many) Loophole which states (and this may be pieced together from different laws, but I believe this is true:)

"Sales or Transfers of Firearms between Private Individuals that are not Licensed FFL Holders, namely those that are not Actively Engaged in the Business of selling or dealing firearms, may transfer or sell a firearm to a Private Individual that is not an FFL holder that is also not Actively Engaged in the Business with no provision of a record check required."

This, I believe, is what got a lot of people in an uproar because the idea was that "Anyone can go to a Gun Show and buy whatever they want." The reality is, however, that 95% of the people at a Gun Show are licensed FFL holders, and ATF and Police are there to enforce those sales, and process Form 4437 for those sales from FFLs….

… However, gun people also pointed out that making laws for Gun Shows was silly, since the above "Cash-and-carry Private Non-FFL Citizen to Private Non-FFL Citizen" sales were legal in the parking lot.

I want to know if this loophole is still in effect. If it is, I have a ray of light for my situation, and have a way to (as legally as possible) achieve my goal of my 2nd Amendment Right, without breaking (one of the) Federal laws. There are many, but as far as I know, this clause has not yet been closed.

I also wondered at one point if it only applied to sales of Long guns… I know someone knows the answer to that too.

Thanks, I surely do appreciate the info.

PS: I am asking so that I can be as informed as possible, some of you know my previous posts. I am not the type to give up. Thanks.
* Added info, 2 minutes ago: This info is directed to John T. Mr. John T, I tried to mail you but you do not allow that…

I thank you for reading my other posts. I am glad you understand what I am getting that. I even tried to allude to it in my posts that there are different Federal laws, and that this one I have questioned is how I will have to obtain my weapon. I do also know that getting caught with it is my butt. I thank you for seing this, and I wanted you to know I appreciate your, the first poster’s, and all the other person’s info.

I must wrap it up with this: NJ is trying to remove the rights of people -nationwide- to own firearms. I can not let my rights be stramrolled. I have joined the NRA today, and will be pursuing expungement, rights restored, and a possible Constitutional challenge to the gun laws of NJ. As far as me possessing a Firearm, I am about to go to a Gun Show in Texas. It appears I do not even need ID for the private sales.

& No Loophole. I am pro-gun. JC

CHO SEUNG-HUI "If not for me, for my children……"?

admin — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 09:16:55 +0000

This was unfortunately a horrible tragedy that could have been prevented if his medical condition had been properly reported to federal firearms licensing… even though it’s required to do so.

But.. one thing that struck me me odd was in his ramblings CHO siad … "I will no longer run, , if not for me or my children…. for my brothers and sisters …. *****"

What do you think he means by children?

He was not known to even have a real girlfriend… his roommate said he had an imaginary girlfriend. The news media has not picked up his reference to his children. Nor have they even mentioned if he had a brother or sister. But he certainly did not have children. If you believe he was speaking metaphorically… to what end

what is the difference between a firearm's license and a permit to carry?

Question about the legal process of buying/owning a rifle?

admin — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 04:31:58 +0000

I’m interested in purchasing a rifle from Armalite that requires a Federal Firearms License – I am not a current gun owner (nor have I ever been, despite spending over 6 years in the Army), and looking over the FFL categories (dealer, manufacturer, importer and collector), I don’t technically fit into any of those, except collector, but the gun I want to purchase does not meet the criteria for being classified as a collectible weapon. (The weapon in question is an M15A4 carbine in .223/5.56mm.) Can anybody detail the process I would have to go through to be able to purchase this weapon from Amralite? Or would it be easier (or cheaper/sensible) to try to procure one from a gun shop? Any help at all in trying to figure this out would be appreciated.

is this a good ak buy and is classic arms reliable?

Expungement of foreign offence in USA?

admin — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 23:42:57 +0000

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.
