The Sheriff's deal was about him stating that you can not put your old plates on a privately purchased vehicle for the 30 day period and wanting to write me for factitious plates which is a phony charge.  In the state of NE you can do that.  Paper homemade intransit's are illegal and putting the old plate on is better than running around w/o plates entirely for up to 30 days.   

Bottom line is most LEO's have no idea what to look for when dealing with class 3 weapons because it isn't covered in training.

Now I am really confused ..... what do your license plate issues have to do with Class III weapons?  That being said, I agree with you to an extent on training.  It is covered, but like MOST laws, many LEOs are the last source you want to inquire to when it comes down to it  .....

LOL I'm not going to break it down long winded quote version like a lot do on here. 

Cliff notes:

The OP stated that even when you are following the law you can have problems. 


--- Quote ---Be aware that not all LEO's are well versed in what is legal and what is not. If you are transporting your evil looking AK pistols and SBR's, even with the Class III paper work required for the SBR, and are stopped you can have issues. In the cases I am referring to above things were eventually sorted out but at great time and inconvenience to the owner. And in a couple of cases a night in jail was involved.

My comment is a lot of LEO's at least 10 that I've spoke to have no idea about class 3 items or that you need to carry paperwork to prove you are legal.  My second comment simply agrees with the OP that even if you are following the law you can have problems. 

Clear as mud?  lol

Chris C.  Just to show that all cops are not out to get you.  Nebraska Revised Statute 60-369 allows you to operate a motor vehicle for 30 days without license plates or in-transit's as long as you have proof of ownership.

60-399(a) states it is illegal to operate any motor vehicle with plates not assigned to it.

Thank you for stating the obvious.  Running around without plates 1 is in an invitation to be pulled over and 2 wasting taxpayers money when you can easily just put the old plates on. 

EDIT:  Was just able to read the second portion of your comment.

Where I found out that you can put your old plates on a a privately purchased vehicle was from a OPD friend (one of many I might add for those who think I may be a cop basher) who was told face to face by Marty Conboy.  You CAN do this.  I will also add NSP also confirmed this is LEGAL.  If anyone knows what the true laws are it's NSP and Mr. Conboy.     

Now maybe WE can get back on topic!?
