Omaha Handgun Registration Denial?

--- Quote from: OTownPyro on November 11, 2017, 10:00:22 PM ---That is part of the plan. Unfortunately, I come from Chicago originally, so I have very limited experience. Finances are also a little tough for us. I'll be honest, after renting a gun at OGC 2x, I am the first to admit I am far from ready to be carrying a firearm in public. We're still looking to get a CCW, but it will be some time before I can. In the meantime I am picking up a shotgun on Black Friday so my wife can at least have something in the house while I'm at work at night.

Understood.
Best of luck to you. Keep your eye open on this forum and Facebook. You can probably find a CHP class in the $85 range if you keep an eye out.
The cost is, obviously, a liberal attempt to keep people from obtaining the permit. I've always wondered why, if you don't pass the background check, the state patrol refunds $85 (if that number isn't correct, please let me know)...shouldn't the permit cost around $15 then?

Otownpyro- I moved here from NY and was denied ownership by OPD when they denied my registration. I appealed and at the appeal, OPD rep said they couldn't confirm I wasn't a felon because I wasn't from Omaha. At the appeal, I showed the 5 member panel my Permit to Purchase and was approved. You don't have a ton of time to appeal, better hurry. RJ btw I live in Florence, kinda North-North Omaha.

Good to know. I got a refund the same day from OGC and will be going back on Black Friday per a managers advice. That way I can get my wife a shotgun for when I'm at work then go through it all again for the appeal. How long was the appeal process for you?

Both Omaha and Lincoln city governments are asinine at best. I'm a retired police officer and I wouldn't allow most city officials to mow my lawn, let alone decide if I can own a firearm or not... it is a "fact-based" decision... if you pass all federal background requirements as written in law, then you can own a firearm... these reprobates in Lincoln and Omaha leave it up to how they personally "feel" about it. SMH. :angry:
Sorry for the rant. I agree with others, get a CCW permit and avoid all the foolishness.
