I'm not worried about Obama at all.
« on: November 05, 2008, 03:36:02 AM »
I'm not worried about Obama being president at all,
because, I DON'T OWN ANY FiREARMS OR WEAPONS OF ANY KIND.
I only post on this site because I like hiking in the woods and looking at the pretty animals.

 ;D :D ;D

I got a great deal selling all mine at a gunshow at that one place, that one time.  The money I got from the sale will go to the new taxes.  :(

I'm in the process right now of selling all of mine.  Not worth the hassle down the road.
I'll keep a couple bolt actions for hunting but that's it.

Selling off all the ammo too.
Local guy will probably buy it all and then I can be done with it and whatever future laws come my way

I figured I didn't have time to sell mine so I went out last night and put them on the curb - this morning they were all gone....whew! that is a big relief off of my shoulders.

 Guns?  I had to sell them about the time of the election because I had a couple overdue bills that needed paid... ;)

What do you mean "walk to the mailbox". I'm not walking to the mailbox. I would have to bend over and put my shoes on to walk that far. Who do they think I am? They can bring that check to my front door or I will start a protest.

Had a big gun show weekend before last in Fairbanks.  I took all 57 of my long guns in and sold them for cash.  But then I got  selfish streak and took every penny and paid my son's tuition at UAF.  Well that is sort of distributing my wealth, I gave it to my son, he's worthy, he does not have a job.  Took all the pistols in also, but since no one was buying them I gave them to a homeless guy out on the street, sure he can make good use of them.

Now as for that Grizzly that hangs out in the back yard.  Since I have gotten rid of all the guns, him and I are just going to have to learn to get along.  I'll take a cue from Treadwell and pet that old Grizzly on the back and tell him how good we are together.  Once the Grizzly understands that, we will be a team.  Who knows maybe he can distribute some of his wealth around based on need.  Since my family will need a Moose next fall and I got rid of all my guns, maybe he will give me one of the Moose he kills next fall, so I can feed my family.  He can always go out and kill another one.

If Ole Grizz don't want to cooperate and play the game, I'll just have to write to Nancy Polosi and see about getting his Fangs and Claws reclassified as assault weapons.  Two can play this game.

You had better draw up some sanctions and set up talks with the grizzly.

Looks like at that point they would have at least shot back with the gun they didn't have.

Since in my life time I've probably owned 500 or more guns the vast majority of which have been gone for many years I'd sure be shot under that guide line. But in all truth if the day comes they come looking for our guns a whole lot of us are likely to be shot.

I made a major mistake once in my life and registered a handgun.  I was a young Staff Sargent, transfered to Las Vegas.  During my inbrefing we were told that if we owned a handgun we were required to register it with the city of Las Vegas.  So being a good NCO I followed the requirement and registered it with the city police department.  They also took my picture and finger printed me.   

Five years and one divorce later I was living on Luke AFB in Glendale Arizona.  Someone broke into my house and stole the gun.  I reported it to the OSI.  A couple of months later Glendale police showed up on my doorstep with AF Security Police in tow.  I was arrested and charged with murder.  I was taken to the police station, finger printed, stripped, searched, photographed, and locked up.  Around 10 AM the following day, they rousted me out to go before a judge.  When we got to the court house a public defender was appointed to defend me.  Up to that point they had refused to let me make a call or to notify anyone, saying it had already been taken care of.  There was my First Sargent and Commander (Not the administrative Commander but the BCE Full Bird Colonel) in the court room. 

Prosecution claimed that a handgun registered in my name had been used to kill a man in Las Vegas.  They found my finger prints all over the gun.  They claimed that I had driven to Las Vegas, shot this guy, and driven back to Glendale over the weekend.  They felt I had planned it because I had reported the gun stolen just weeks before I went to kill this guy as a cover.  They were asking the judge to process paperwork to extradite me back to Las Vegas, where I could stand trila for murder.  My public defender had not said anything.  At this point Col. Johnston stood identified himself and asked to address the court.  The judge recognized him so the Col asked when was this supposed to have happened.  Prosecution gave the time of the murder, 11:45 PM the previous Saturday Night.  And the location, parking lot North Town Grocery Store, North Las Vegas Blvd.  Col Johnston then told the judge that they had the wrong person, he personally could vouch for my whereabouts from 4 PM Saturday afternoon till 4 AM Sunday morning.  The Colonel and I had been working an emergency together, side by side, and that I worked weekends.  The judge released me to the Colonels custody.  A week later I was notified that all charges were dismissed.

Lesson Learned!  Never, Never, Never, Register a gun.  Period.    And thank God those two F-15s collided, and set off an incident that put the entire US Air Force on alert world wide to keep the Colonel there with me all night.

In Alabama there is no registration of firearms. BUT since GCA 68 ever gun bought at an FFL dealer's place of business has had a piece of paper filled out with all pertinet info on it. I'd guess I've signed a few hundred of those. Most guns have gone back to an FFL holder so if they took the time to go thru those records which will have been confiscated by the time they come for our guns they could find out what I did with them.

Some have gone to individuals tho altho these days even those mostly go thru an FFL to someone out of state as a CYA thing. Some few I do still have of course but the vast majority have been gone for years.

Everytime I've ever bought a gun the guy behind the counter has made his little phone call to do the background check.  The give all my info, and the serial number of the gun.  I think the government already has all the information they want.  Unless you buy a gun from a person with cash, they know what you have.

My dealer told me that it's just a background check.
In Oklahoma the only record is the paper at the gun shop
and they are not a registration.

You're right, it's not technically a "registration", but it may as well be when you think about it.  Who knows how much gets stored in some computer somewhere.

It's not technically a registration, but... when your information gets called in over the phone they would have to enter it into a computer to do your background check.  There's no way they can get a background check in minutes by flipping through folders.  Your information, my information, and everyone elses, is in the system.

I will not argue the point and suspect it might be correct BUT the law requires them to remove it within 24 hours and not ever store it. Do they? I dunno. The data from all those fed forms turned in by dealers going out of business sure enough is getting converted and stored in computers tho of that I have no doubt.

The law tho specifically says they cannot keep the instant check data more than 24 hours.
