If someone has bad intentions, they can buy a gun quickly. If they plan to commit rape or murder, a misdemeanor gun charge is nothing in comparison. Therefore, the long wait for a CHL doesn't slow down a BG and only hurts the good guys.Purplehood wrote:Having looked at this post again, I am wondering what the intent of it is.FireAtWill wrote:OK,
New to the forums but wanted to share my last experience and a little frustration.
For my CHL license:
Paid $250 total, Took a 10 hour class, went to go get fingerprinted, went to post office to mail packet, waited a month.
Went to buy a concealed gun last week (not yet approved for CHL):
Filled out one page
They called it in
30 seconds later was writing the check and walking out the door.
They even asked me if I wanted to buy ammo with it.
So a less honest individual could enter a store, buy a gun, ammo, and illegally carry 30 seconds later. But to be "legal" my background check took 2 weeks and over a month soup to nuts.
Just some levity about the process.
-I am not sure what the phrase, "buy a concealed gun" means.
-How would anyone be less honest by coming in the store and buying a gun and ammo? It sounds like the store owner complied with the law. Am I missing something here?
