Re: Advice for a "Green Card" Holder

>I didn't know that once I have the card I won't need to provide the 3 months proof of residency

I missed that part - when did this rule change?

Re: Advice for a "Green Card" Holder

In another roundabout way, the memo from ATF on firearms purchases for non-resident aliens used a CHL holder as an example of 'insufficient' eligibility to allow the purchase. ie. a non-resident alien with a valid state hunting license was fine, but a CHL was not. see? no logic.

logically, that is probably correct. However, I'm not sure logic applies to federal laws (any maybe this is an ATF rule rather than a law ?). The bottom line is, if a non-citizen purchases a firearm from an FFL, I'm pretty sure they'll be required to show proof of 90 days "continuous" residence in the state independent of the TX DL and CHL.

>No longer need to be a TX resident for >90 days

That is true for a CHL, but it still applies for firearms purchases through an FFL.
