Oh, and by the way Scott, in case you haven't taken notice.....

If my scorecard is correct, I'm showing that you just got a new camera, and that Scott is owed a welder.

BOOM, HEADSHOT!!!




Good one, Al.

sweet,
then let me say I'll be happy to bring out my rifle anywhere we can legaly shoot with a decently long range (no point in shooting at 25-50 yards with a long gun) and I'll be happy to let anyone use it there who brings ammo for it.

You suck. For your information, Scott's Bday was Christmas Eve...and between that AND Xmas...he made out like a friggin bandit, as usual. I guess I could take his $300 cell phone back (only ONE of the toys he got) and get him a welder instead?  

Back to topic....

Guns Guns and more Guns.

Does a permit transfer to other states?

[albsvx]

some (but very few) states recognize some other states permits
however, usually having a permit in one state makes it easier to get one in another state

I've got a book called the traveler's guide to firearm laws in all 50 states.  My copy is a few years old now, but it's a good starting point.  Mostly focuses on handgun and concealed/open carry laws.  Let me know if you've got any specific example questions.

*groans* damn. I have no idea where we might be moving. PRD isn't until Aug 09, unless he makes LDO in Feb...who knows! This is why I always stall on getting a friggin permit    Kinda hard to plan for shit, unless you know where you are going. It takes so long to get the permit, that by the time you do, it's time to rotate, and who knows if you can xfer etc. Not to mention all the fees paid, you might lose!

Based on this list from the NRA website, I'm assuming Basic Pistol is what CT requires. Doesn't really make sense unless it incorporates basic firearms training.
Here's a list of all training held in CT registered with the NRA.

you can get the federal permits they are expensive but work everywhere. I'm sure someone else knows more about this than me

SHIT! *rifles through my wallet* Ummmm ok, I'll see what I can do....LOL...Thats all I got for now...

An FFL is $200 and is mainly for dealers.  If you own one or even 3 guns, you really don't need one.  An FFL only allows you to buy and sell guns, parts, and accessories.  Usually at cost instead of retail.  Unless you plan on having a large collection, you are barking up the wrong tree.  Plus, you have to be able to list a place of business, which can be your home, but it has to be approved by local law enforcement.  Which means no go, for us navy folk living in housing.

[albsvx]

yeah, as far as I'm aware, a FFL has nothing to do with "carry" ... that's still up to the localities

[albsvx]

looking at that list, ledyard is probably the best for you guys in groton, I think that's held at the ledyard sportsman club, which has their own range

This is so cool...but man do they make you work for it. Proof of residency, applications, application fees, training sessions and certifications, more fees for licensing, eeps! No wonder it's always mowed under on my "to-do" list!

And I won't know if it xfers until I know where WE will xfer! LOL

I'd be interested in both shooting my rifle and getting a permit.
