    T&E Guns

    I would imagine that most professional gun T&E guys have an FFL, since they're engaged in the business. At least, the one I know does.

    Am I really going to have to wait 5 years? Maine Conceal Carry permit laws

    It's doubtful they would accept a renewal more than 60 or so days in advance of expiration.

    Am I really going to have to wait 5 years? Maine Conceal Carry permit laws

    If you've submitted your renewal, your permit remains in force until the issuing authority acts, even if the expiration date passes while they're still processing it. No worries. 25 MRSA 2003(12): Permit for a resident of 5 or more years to be issued or denied within 30 days; permit for a...

    Am I really going to have to wait 5 years? Maine Conceal Carry permit laws

    I think you're reading the law wrong. There is no 5-year wait. I believe the only place the 5-year-residency thing is mentioned is in the statutory time limit for the issuing authority to issue or deny the permit; for resident of 5 years or more, they have 30 days; for a resident of less than...

    In Maine, we have State preemption of firearms laws, for now anyway. Municipalities cannot enact local firearms ordinances. Good thought, though.

    Maine: Concealed Carry, Training & LD 1022

    Concealed Carry, Training & LD 1022 (www.gunownersofmaine.org) Laws prohibiting concealed carry are meant “to prevent people from having at hand dangerous weapons of which the public is not aware”, or so courts have said. They date from a time when openly-carried weapons were neither unusual...

    Shipping a Receiver via USPS

    Doesn't matter for Postal purposes. If it can be concealed on the person, it isn't mailable (except FFL to FFL and a couple of other exceptions which do not apply).

    Form 4473- Address Field

    The homeless, assuming they actually reside for any length of time in a state, as most probably do, should be able to purchase guns in private sales, sure. RVers, not quite so clear. Will a stay of just a day or a few days qualify them as a resident of a state? Maybe. I really don't know if...

    Form 4473- Address Field

    Yes, Navy, I am aware that the seller is under no obligation to check the ID or residency of the buyer. This does not change the fact that private interstate transfers are a crime. It's just a matter of who committed a crime: the buyer, or the buyer and the seller.

    Form 4473- Address Field

    And it still does. No one has passed such a law, so that's a hypothetical. For those who have no residence address, it is already an infringement that they cannot purchase a new firearm from a dealer. They don't really have access to the private market either, as even private...

    Form 4473- Address Field

    The law you're railing against was passed 45 years ago, in 1968. Your elected officials passed those laws a loooong time ago.
