State police looking to get accurate records of pistol permit holders

(Erie County January 2019)

Erie County Clerk Michael Kearns says fewer than one-third of permit holders are in compliance with the SAFE Act.

BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE DON'T TRUST THE GOVERNMENT?

Maybe I'm dense or need more coffee today but why/how does the SP already know the recert compliance rate for specific counties?
I thought they were buried with mail-in recerts?

Yeah, all are saying FUAC and all, but when they all lose their permits, do not come out of the woodwork crying about it.

I think all these laws suck, but having your permit pulled does nothing but give FUAC a win. He is going to get exactly what he wants.

Hmmm. if they say it will take a year or more to catch up with the recerts that are currently in the system (per the article) , how are they going to be able to trace all the cat videos I've watched on youtube to deem that I'm stable enough to keep my permit ?

FUAC!

I highly doubt the majority of folks that haven't complied did it as an FU to the tyrant. They didn't do it because they have no idea it's required.
Ask 100 gun owners around the state what the Safe act means and you'll get plenty that have no idea what you're talking about.

I call bullshit on them being buried in paperwork. I submitted paper on the due date, three months later they sent it back and told me to try again. I blew it off until they sent another notice two months after that. I resubmitted and 2 weeks later checked the status online to find out the recertification process was complete.

I also smell fish on the behind in paperwork. Im sure they are behind somewhere's else and Im sure they allocated resources to keep up on this as this like xmas for them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As for not knowing this needed to be done, I call full bullshit. It was on the news for months. Every politician was talking about. It was the talk of gun stores and gun shows. Multiple mailings were sent out.

I can't see 66% but I do know some EC old farts who own 1 handgun on their ancient yellow paper permits who cancelled the Buffalo News years ago and never got a digital TV, have landlines..................... Probably half a box of ammo through their 50 year old .38 S&W snubbies. Still have the old paper box.

There are a lot of gun owners (not enthusiasts) who still don't know they have to recertify.

Its amazing how much advertising the state buys to push welfare to the free shit army, but nothing comparable letting people know they were about to become felons.

My wife just applied for her license about 2 months ago. She doesn't know yet. I'm sure of it. She doesn't read newspapers and she fast forwards through all DVR commercials and doesn't watch live TV.

I only knew because of this forum.

Some people truly have their head up their ass though. I agree with him that some percentage of these pistol holders really just do not know; they don't read the news, don't stay abreast of things in general. Some people really know so little it's downright impressive.

There are a lot of gun owners and even enthusiasts that are confused and only think the safe act banned internet ammo sales and that if they bought it online tomorrow, the gestapo will be at their door to arrest them.
Then there's the folks who wonder why AR's now look like space guns. What's a fixed magazine?
What do you mean I can't buy my buddy's hunting rifle? Background check? For what?
I've known old old timers that thought they could just go buy a handgun if/when they wanted to. Whaddya mean I need a pistol permit?

I never received a letter. I only knew because I waste my life surfing the internet. If I was living life, I wouldn't have known.

We'll gladly waste your time every chance we get.

I disagree GOP, lots of people don't participate in the things you cited, or may have moved from the address on their permit and not notified them, which in and of itself is a revokable no no, and some guys I know, when they retired, it was from everything.
