D.C. Court Ruling Could Affect Out-Of-State Gun Buying

[6birds]

Could be.

Want to chance it?

Well, I'm going to be at the Richfield, WI Cabelas (again) on Sunday to pick up two Parkers. The question will be asked, and guns probably purchased.

Indiana cannot stop me from buying a gun somewhere else.

Wait a minute.. What part of both states' law did he violate to constitute a violation of federal law? Indiana's law specifies that you as an adult, non-prohibited citizen of Indiana can purchase a long gun in any of five states. It does not say that you cannot anywhere else. This would be analogous to a police officer being allowed to wear a badge... It does not say he cannot have "POLICE" as a window sticker on his personal vehicle. It would also compare to a blind person using his red-tipped white cane and a hook-handled walking cane as well. He can use both, but one of the two is specifically permitted; the other is not prohibited.

Or am I missing something here?

Blessings,
Bill

Would it not be like carry law? Like Indiana recognizes Ohio's carry license, but Ohio doesn't recognize ours?

Wouldn't it be nice if we had one easy law to understand, something like the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed? Nothing about what state you can or cannot buy in, no barrel length, no parts count.

Unfortunately to get these rights back will take one of four things, either the slow piece by piece recovery, much like how we got here in the first place, or a dramatic shift in leadership that understands we are a nation of laws, with the constitution being the supreme law of the land, seccession from the union and forming Indiana as a republic, or finally the one I hope we don't need, is the forced return of this country to it's constitutional roots.

FTFY

Two parkers? I only have one.

I'm in kentucky right now, will be in nashville tomorrow, and then onto south corolina.

I might not have too much time to shop, but in the event I do find an irrisistable deal, I'd buy from a dealer the legal deal.

Wouldn't a NICS approve or disapprove an out of state resident with restrictions in his resident state?

You're supposed to buy them in pairs... state law!

No. They don't care about a state rule that does not affect the NICS process, kind of like OC in Broadripple for Kirk. Once you leave state lines, it carries no weight.

Then you win, nothing better than shooting a piece of familt history!
