I got some info from the state police today. From what they told me the reason this has all come about was because HB1066. What I was told is that while they were figuring out what all it would take to make this law work the ATF and nics were examining Louisiana law. Once they saw 40:1379.3(c)(10) they decided that it was the most restrictive law that LA had so that would be what they used for NICS background checks. From what the state police told me until then they used 14:95.1 ,but from now on the ATF (NICS) would use 40:1379.3 as a guideline for who is prohibited. The Sargent at the state police said they were not given a heads up as to when this would take effect, but knew it was coming. They figured it would possibly effect 10's of thousands of people. All they would say on what or when it may change was that probably nothing would happen until next session if then. They said barring any thing that might happen with constitutionality issues, doesnt seem likely with the new supreme court ruling, that Louisiana law changing would be the only relief that possibly might come.
Thank you. I thought it must have had something to do with HB1066.
