Im trying to get more people i know involved with firearms and shooting. Anyhow, one of the requirements listed on the pamphlet that was picked up at the sheriff station states:
"No record of mental health"
Well, someone close to me voluntarily made regular visits to a psychiotrist earlier in their life, and is now not willing to go get a permit because of potential rejection.
As it stands today, arent they checking for a criminal record of that nature?
Just wanted to be able to be clear so i could keep pushing my cause, and hopefully sooner than later have close friends to go shoot with.

The only mental issues that will show up in a background check are those that are court ordered.
However, as I understand it, there are provisions in Obamacare that would seriously expand on that...

On both points, that was my understanding.
Thanks for confiming for me.
