like the article says, buy them from close friends and family. although that would be illegal in New Yorkistan
80% Lower bought with cash is the only legal way to stay entirely off the radar in NY. Also muzzle loaders and black powder revolvers.like the article says, buy them from close friends and family. although that would be illegal in New Yorkistan
If it comes to the point where an army of government goons (or their contractors) come for our guns, each gun owner will have to quickly decide if they wish to invoke the ethos of Thomas Jefferson and relive 1775, or self-castrate like in Australia.
and just how many were bought before the NICS ??? or passed on from from estates .. or even gun raffles back in the day ..

To legally shoot them, not to buy them. You can buy one and keep it on your wall, never shoot it, doesn't need to be on the permit. 95% sure that's the case (is what an FFL told me a couple weeks ago and I was of the impression prior as well).BP pistols still have to go on a permit
No problem. Then the policy changes to no active seizure of weapons through force, but it's now a Class A felony to own one along with a $5k award if information leads to the arrest and conviction of a gun owner. Additionally, any arrest by a person who previously owned a gun triggers an automatic warrant to search their premises for firearms.If they serve say the first 500 seizures and only 5 were met with resistance I doubt they would think twice about continuing on.

What if you have two of the same gun and one is on permit and one is cleaned and has never been fired?If you don't have the firing components in the house. Once you have BP and caps, you need it on the permit. That's what I've read on this forum, multiple times, anyway.
Only if you intend to shoot it, or have the components for loading it on the premises. So if you have no intent to shoot it but have a muzzleloading rifle, and components, that you hunt with, you have to register it. FUNY!BP pistols still have to go on a permit
How many have been bought at yard sales/ estate sales too!

When you do a NICS check, isn't the make, model, and serial number not given to the FBI? I was under the impression that all they got was that you bought a pistol, long gun, or other.
And from my understanding, the social security number is optional for you to give too. They tell you to put it down if your name is common like John Smith or Juan Garcia or Occasional Cortez.from what have made out listening to the call .. just your info is sent .. name . ssn/driver lic .. .. don't think they read off the serial # ..

It depends on the person doing the background checkWhen you do a NICS check, isn't the make, model, and serial number not given to the FBI? I was under the impression that all they got was that you bought a pistol, long gun, or other.
I can enter the firearm on the form or not before I electronically send the form
That being said, the firearm is added to the form after the background check
If you call in the background check they ask for handgun long gun or other
