Can you get a permit to purchase from the county law?

I hold a CCW permit. In the state I live in, all I have to do to purchase any firearm is produce my Drivers License and CCW permit. No phone calls, as I've already been approved by all law enforcement. Check out your states regs. This is as simple as going to a gun shop and asking the clerk behind the counter.

As it would happen, today in the mail is my"Voluntary Appeal File" (VAF) and it reads that "you (I) are (am) eligible to be placed in the VAF". It goes on to read that I will still have to go through a background check for each transaction of a gun. If I become a bad boy, someone who would yell at kids and/or kick cats, I could be placed in denied status, if prohibitive information is discovered. I have been issued a "Unique Personal Identification Number" (UPIN) (I don't think I am supposed to print that here) (I give you 2 faces here Blume) It goes on about what an FFL must give the "Call Center" when processing my background check.
So from July 9th till today Aug. 27 I have gone from being an outcast to being able to now become a gun toten brother. Fells good to be back in the pack, but then I now have to carry the "Red Letter L" on my chest as being another one on the government list. But that's ok, I can submit a written notice to the AST and be removed from the list if I chose. I can also be removed from the list if the NICS Section discovers disqualifying information. If they do discover disqualifiying information they may delete me from the list. The good news is, I do not have to give my SSN when I fill out an application to purchase a gun. So I guess all in all the system worked pretty fast, but now I'll have to go out and purchase a gun to see if I still can. I am just one of ten's, thousands, or more who still have to jump through the hoops or go out and try and curcumvent the law. Anyway I'm leagal now, or have I always been leagal and just been wasting my time? |

Off topic, but I tend to bleed more Orange and Black. But Narmund is closer but I never go there.

Well let us know how it works out at the gun shop
I suspect and hope it will be a fast call in now that you have a number.
As a side note, there is nothing wrong with your alternative method of purchasing a gun... at a gun show. As I've said, here in my state I can go into a gun shop and buy what ever they have without the background check...because our CWP is recognized as the back ground check.. This does not stop me from still going to gun shows and looking and if I have a few extra hundred dollars in my pocket doing a private transaction. At the gun shows here... it depends on the private seller as to what they ask for... some want proof of state residency and such... some just ask for the money. keep in mind, in most cases.. my experience at gun shows is you will pay 50-100 bucks more for a handgun in a private sale than if that same gun was at your local 'retail' shop. |

Fish_Scientist,
I don't know where you copied that quote from but the paragraph numbers are incorrect. There is no "12.c." on the current Form 4473 (in use since 2008) The information regarding exceptions is correct. I posted this back on page 2.
