Medical marijuana question

[NY Chamorro]

Would it affect your 2nd ammedment rights, if you are prescribed medical marijuana?

 

[E the massive]

No. But you won't be able to legally posses/purchase a gun.

 

[Doc8404]

Haha. What an answer.

Well. I know people with a prescription.

They don’t bother buying a gun anymore.

They have a pistol permit.

I guess I would have to reread the NYSP recert to see what that asks.

@Doc8404 i believe the issue wouldn’t necessarily be with NY. Since marijuana is still illegal on a federal level, you wouldn’t be eligible when filling out the yellow form.

Medical marijuana users prevented from owning guns under federal law

 

[Depick]

It’s one or the other

Understood.

What’s a yellow form?
4473 is white isn’t it?

 

[Doc8404]

So if you get a script, that makes your pistol permit null and void and you technically can’t own the long guns you already have?

Never mind not purchasing new ones.

 

[Doc8404]

Interesting.

So in some states you can still purchase firearms.

So Cuomo wants to make it legal here.

Then he can identify them and therefore it is illegal since we need to use an FFL.

 

[Curmudgeon]

Wrong question for the gun forum.

 

[fnfalguy]

@Doc8404 yeah, it’s white now, but previously yellow. Apparently one of the changes in 2016 was the ATF made several changes to the form, including adding a warning statement that the use of marijuana is illegal under federal law, regardless of whether it has been legalized or decriminalized for medicinal or recreational purposes in the state where the transferee/buyer resides

 

[Doc8404]

Cool. Figured that was it.

But many states you don’t need to go through an FFL.

lucky them.

I was just asking for a friend

No weed if you want guns but feel free to drink yourself into oblivion or get your doc to prescribe you enough narcotics to kill a horse. But no evil plant.

If you are inclined to try 'medical marijuana' , but are worried about the legal ramifications, do some research on cannabidiols, the THC is removed from the product, so there is no "high". At this time, they are perfectly legal to use and possess. If you are tested for drugs, nothing will show up while using cannabidiols. The benefits can in some cases be life-changing. You don't have to 'register' to get a purchase card, and at the present time there are many local places throughout the state you can purchase CBD oils. Online searches may help you.

Tell "YOUR FRIEND" to just continue buying it on the street. It's much safer.
