Idea to think about, use Nebraska state CCW permit for buyers card

(1/2) > >>

rich17z:
I made a call to Senator Brad Ashfords office and thought of the Idea of the Nebraska State CCW Permit to be used for along with the ccw,open carry,and firearms buyers card.  All in one for the state and Omaha.  The reason for me to do this is ,that I know about Omaha registration of handguns only that when some one from out of town that does not live in Omaha drives thru and possibility of getting pulled over is a little to worry about sometimes and ,so,I thought maybe since some states,I forget which ones have their ccw permits to buy and for ccw and opencarry.  3 things on one card along with your picture[mugshot] and all other important info that needs to be on it when you get stopped by a police officer.   Need some more thoughts from you so,this is for LB273.   Senator Ashford wants to raise the prices from $5.00 to $10.00 for the buyers card.  So,what are your thoughts on this?????  rich17z@cox.net,Omaha,Ne. 

Chris Z:
I testified at the Legislative hearing regarding the increase of sheriffs fees, I suggested that to take some burden off of Sheriff's offices issuing purchase permits, they should change the law to allow the CHP to act as a purchase permit as well. That suggestion fell on deaf ears.

 Senator Ashford actually got up there in his opening statements and said he wanted to leave the purchase permit fees at $5, and was amending the bill to reflect that.

Dark Helmet:
not a bad idea, since it is an "even more stringent" standard than the purchase permit... but the CHP should in absolutely NO WAY be connected to or construed with OC... I would run from that conflagration like pigs from swine-flu...

Mike M.:
I might be wrong if so somebody correct me. I believe the ccw permit allows us to oc in Omaha.Not sure that I want to.

Rifleman:
I agree with DH: It's a bad idea to connect Nebraska's open carry law with any kind of permit or government "permission slip." Isn't the mere existence of an "open carry law" a violation of the state constitution?

But I don't see the need for both a CCW and a purchase permit. Surely the CCW would be enough. But maybe the purchase permits represent an income source and this accounts for the reluctance to abandon them.
