--- Quote ---Don't forget, Lincoln has a ridiculous ordinance that makes it illegal to store a firearm in a vehicle for more than 24 hours at a time.
--- End quote ---
This is incorrect. The ordinance forbids storing a firearm in an unattended vehicle for more than twenty-four hours. By the plain reading of the ordinance, if you drive your car more often than every twenty-four hours, you are not in violation. Also, if you park your car in a garage or some other locked enclosure/building, the ordinance does not apply to you.
--- Quote ---9.36.110 Firearms in Unattended Motor Vehicle; Unlawful.
It shall be unlawful for any person to keep a firearm in an unattended motor vehicle for a
period in excess of twenty-four hours.
The provisions of this section shall not apply to members of the Armed Forces of the United
States, active or reserve, the National Guard of this state, or Reserve Officers Training Corps, when
on duty or training, or peace officers or other duly authorized law enforcement officers, nor shall
it apply to vehicles containing firearms that are parked in locked enclosures or buildings, such as
garages or other storage facilities. (Ord. 18158 §2; April 7, 2003).

Also we have the law where it is unlawful to have a center fire rifle in your vehicle during the 10 day deer rifle season unless you have a deer permit...

Statute citation? I can't even find that on the Game and Parks site. (The only commentary I find about rifles during deer season relates to hunting OTHER things with the rifle.)

Wymore Wrangler, I can't find the prohibition on center fire rifle in your vehicle during the 10 day deer rifle season unless you have a deer permit...
Can you give me a link or where I can find this? Thank You. admins@handgunlaw.us
