Questions on Lincoln ordinance
GreggL:
I have only recently heard of this ordinance. Can some one post a link to it? Does it only affect FFL's in the city of Lincoln?
Thanks, Gregg
NE Bull:
Which Lincoln ordinance are you referring to, GreggL?
There is an ordinance that goes above and beyond state and federal law on who can own/purchase a gun in the city of Lincoln, based on prior non felony convictions.
There is also the "backdoor" registration on handguns.
Both should be within these pages:

GreggL:
NE Bull, thank you for the link. I was referring to this one:
9.36.030 Report of Sale of Firearms.
Any person, firm, association, or corporation dealing in firearms of any type shall, on the
same day of the sale of any firearm, except a shotgun or a rifle of a type commonly used for hunting,
report the sale to the Police Department on forms as prescribed and furnished by the Police
Department. The report shall contain all the information requested thereon. (Ord. 15625 §3; July
9, 1990: P.C. §9.28.025: Ord. 15443 §1; February20, 1990: prior Ord. 7936 §1; December 26, 196
I will need to contact the local store I recently purchased a shotgun set up for 3 gun competition
and see if they report that as a sale that falls under this ordinance.
Does the city expect individuals that do a private sale to comply with this?

Yes you have to report private sales of handguns if it takes place in the city limits.
Be aware if you get caught with a rifle or shotgun inside the city limits, you will be charged with possession of a firearm by a prohibited person, which is a felony. Your CHP isn't going to save you. And they may charge you for the handgun with CHP just to run you through the ringer. It's happened before.

I must have missed something. Why would he be charged as a prohibited person?
