City of Lincoln Law
KGillen:
Yes indeed Dan, I was denied a purchase permit as a result of 2 misdemeanors shortly after I turned 21. I finally moved back to Bellevue, and the first thing I did after getting my updated drivers license was to go apply in Sarpy county, where of course I was approved. The thing that is scary about the law down there is most people don't know about it. I didn't find out until I had been "illegally" in possession of firearms for over 3 years (I immediatly removed them from my home and placed them with my grandfather for safe keeping). I shudder to think what could've happened.
Rob B:
My son was denied a PP under that ordinance also. Took the course and is qualified for ccw now(hasn'tcome up with $100 yet), will get CCW and tell Lincoln to stuff
DaveB:
Since being denied purchase permits in Lincoln and getting them elsewhere, would that make it illegal to have a gun in Lincoln should you ever just happen to pass through?
Seems stupid to me to be denied a purchase permit and then pass the concealed check. There needs to be some changes made.
Bill:
To the best of my knowledge you only need the purchase permit to *buy* the gun. Once you own it the permit no longer matters. An odd situation where you could get your ccw, live in Lincoln and be able to buy guns, yet not be eligible to get a purchase permit (if you didn't have a ccw license) because of the City ordinance. Definitely a conflict that the city needs to fix.
KGillen:
Dave: The same reasons for denial of a purchase permit in Lincoln are also the same for exclusion of owning firearms there, very lame.
