    Misdemeanor in one state, felony in another...

    To answer the OP's original question -- if you were convicted of a misdemeanor in Arizona and move to California where the same crime would have been a felony, that does not mean you have a felony record.

    Should my wife have to do transfer to her name?

    One of the factors they look at to determine if a straw purchase has occurred is if the end recipient gave the buyer money to purchase the gun and/or directed the buyer on which gun to get. From the OP it doesn't sound like either of those is true, so it is likely not a straw purchase...

    Misdemeanor in one state, felony in another...

    Worse than that. Something that is perfectly legal in one state can be a 10-year felony in another.

    While maybe not a good idea, really arrested?

    How about the charge of possession of a dangerous weapon? Is his gun a violation of the SAFE act?

    Scottrade No Concealed Weapons Policy

    Do you really need to go to their office? I've had accounts with them and haven't been there in 15 years.

    NRA is for the 2A infringement of those on any 'terror watch list'. What? Really?

    All it takes is one executive order to put everyone on the watch list and BOOM -- guns are banned without Congressional approval.

    Win in SCOTUS today..

    It is encouraging that the left-leaning justices at least appear willing to hold to Heller as valid precedent.

    NJ and Guns (Visit)

    Short answer: No, you can't bring your gun legally. FOPA protects you if you're travelling through New Jersey. You are staying in New Jersey where possession of a handgun is illegal. You can go to jail for ten years. In other words, don't do it.

    Concealed carry at work

    The company certainly has the right to protect their image. They can tell you how to dress when you're not on company property. They can tell you not to have your tattoos showing. They can tell you not to wear your skull ring. They can tell you you must be clean shaven. They can certainly...

    Options to possess a gun when living in a gun-unfriendly apartment? (IA)

    I think the problem here is that you keep conflating "the law" (what is legal to do) with "the contract" (what is allowed in your rental agreement). There's a difference. Violations of the contract will get you evicted. Violations of the law will get you arrested. It's legal to own a dog...

    Can out of staters possess firearms or ammo in Illinois, without a carry license?

    I would wager that by now most cops are aware of the Illinois CCW, and if you are stopped with a gun they will ask to see your permit. They are probably aware of some of the prohibited zones but probably not all of them. They are probably not aware of the signage requirement. Most are...

    Have you done it yet?

    No point to it. One is a Democrat party leader who will vote for any leftist nominee. The other is a go-along-to-get-along RINO.

    Can out of staters possess firearms or ammo in Illinois, without a carry license?

    Actually it was a ruling from the 7th Circuit. It never got to SCOTUS because the state would have lost and established precedent.

    Can out of staters possess firearms or ammo in Illinois, without a carry license?

    As an Illinois resident I try to keep up on Illinois firearms law. As I understand it currently, an out of state resident may possess firearms and ammunition, if the firearm is unloaded and cased, etc. If an out of stater wishes to possess a loaded firearm, he may do so provided: 1) He and...

    Getting back a gun.

    This is stupid. It's not a stolen gun -- he sent it to the guy voluntarily. It is an entirely civil matter. The answer is you sue him in small claims court for the value of the gun. The difficulty you're going to have is that you have no proof it was a loan. He'll claim it was a gift and...

    With Scalia gone....

    Depends what the lower court ruled.

    Carrying concealed against Employer's Policy

    Think of it this way: Drinking is legal (if you're over 21). If you drink at work you can be fired. Same thing.

    Do you let people borrow guns?

    I have never lent a firearm, but I would loan one to a family member if they were in dire need of it and could not risk doing the waiting period to buy one of their own.

    Is it illegal to be in the presence of an illegal firearm

    In the presence of -- no, not that I know of. In possession of -- yes absolutely. Now, what constitutes possession? That's a question for very expensive lawyers. Sometimes being in the same car with contraband means everyone in the car is in possession of the item. You could argue that you...
