Re: SCOTUS to Hear Straw Purchase Case

I agree that he MAY have broken the letter of the law, but not the spirit of the law.... SCOTUS will now make the decision, and possibly clarify the limits of the law. Unfortunately, the case may be clouded by the fact that the accused was the subject of arrest for bank robbery. The straw purchase ...

Re: SCOTUS to Hear Straw Purchase Case

Without reading up on the letter of the law, my first impression is that it WAS a straw purchase. He bought it (at a discount) because his relative couldn't buy it (at a discount). He didn't gift it to the relative, he sold it to the relative, and that was his plan from the beginning. Aside from tha...

Re: Legal ? Detachable Mag on SKS

Actually, I think you can add the detachable magazine, but you just can't stop there. You'll need to change a few more things. It has to do with the 992 (r) regulation. Essentially, what you have to do is turn your import gun into a US made gun by replacing the original imported components with US m...

Re: Approval/Registration Process for 30.06 Sign???

I suppose that is possible, we are in Dallas, actually Richardson. I'll ask them if that might be what the instructor was referring to.

Re: Approval/Registration Process for 30.06 Sign???

Thanks for the responses, you all confirmed what I already thought, but I just wanted to be sure I wasn't sleeping during that portion of the class or something changed since I took it.

Thanks again!

Approval/Registration Process for 30.06 Sign???

Hi, Two colleagues of mine just took their renewal class this past weekend and asked me about something they were told. First, our building is properly posted so this is why they brought it up. They were told that there is some sort of approval process or registration that a business needs to go thr...

Re: Criminal background question for CHL.....

Apostate's right in posting the reference. The 10 years starts from the date that the deferred adjudication is entered - not the arrest date. You don't say what the felony was for, if it was for one of those in A, B, C, or D, then deferred adjudication doesn't matter, they still consider it a convic...

Re: Strange Vibrations

Too funny, I thought it was only me. I get it several times a week, usually while in the car driving home from work. Sometimes I feel it in my shirt pocket since I stick the phone there sometimes, but normally it's on my waist.

Is this considered a "School" ?

Quick and short question: My daughter takes swimming lessons on Saturday mornings. The facility is called "Blah Blah Blah Swim School." For purposes of concealed carry, does this fall under the category of "Schools"? She also takes karate lessons and that place is called some sor...

Re: Delay: "Disposition information"

FerretRay, I'll second or third what others have said. Having gone through quite a hassle myself, I can sympathize with what you are going through. I would first call the county clerks office and talk to them. Depending on the size of the county, they might give you some information over the phone. ...
