Thanks that is what I was hoping. I live in Western Douglas Co. and don't particularly want to let Omaha know what I own, or give them any of my money.

LB430 Sec. 5. Cities and villages shall not have the power to regulate the ownership, possession, or transportation of a concealed handgun, as such ownership, possession, or transportation is authorized under the Concealed Handgun Permit Act, except as expressly provided by state law.
Any existing city or village ordinance, permit, or regulation regulating the ownership, possession, or transportation of a concealed handgun, as such ownership, possession, or transportation is authorized under the act, is declared to be null and void as against any permit holder possessing a valid permit under the act.
Reminder that this law makes changes to the Concealed Handgun Permit Act only and does not affect current NE firearm laws in any other way.
Only Concealed Handgun Permit holders when the Bill LB430 goes into affect
September 5th, 2009.
Omaha's requirement for any handgun purchased in Omaha must be registered with OPD will still stand as law.
I would really like to be wrong on this but Omaha and Lincoln just let this go through to easily after it was amended.
Individuals not living in Omaha or purchasing a handgun in Omaha are not required to register the handgun for concealed carry permit purposes formally required for Non-Omaha permit holders. Non resident handgun purchased in Omaha guess what must register with OPD.

Here's a question.. The law mentions "loaded firearms" what is the legislative definition of loaded? A round in the chamber, a magazine with rounds in it placed into the grip of a pistol or rounds in the cylinder of a revolver?

Good point Randy. That is definitely a point I should have included.

I can't site any documentation, but I think you will find the generally accepted interpretation of "loaded" to include rounds in a magazine even if it is not inserted in the pistol. I have no doubt that rounds in the cylinder of a revolver would be considered loaded.
