Yes, Constitutional Carry does fix a lot of BS that we have to go through.

I often see CCW & CCH, sometimes CWL, CHL, & CWP. I rarely see people actually call it a CHP.
Yep but if you negate the restriction with the c̶c̶w̶ CHP then you negate their argument.
You're right Dave it's like the damn alphabet. I know I'm a ass but if a person can't even call it by what it is I don't take the other stuff as being too correct.

I just tried calling the local ATF agent and tried to find out about getting a UPIN. They did not know what i was talking about and recommended me get an attorney to file the proper paperwork
Hey fellas. New poster here.Live in the BR area and i've just got finished reading this entire thread.
I was convicted in 1994 of Simple Burglary. It's been almost 20 years since the end of my parole and i've had a clean record. I know i fall under article 14:95.1 and actually own several weapons that i've bought from people.
I was at my local gunsmiths place the other day and was discussing with him about filling out the ATF form and specifically the part that asks if i've ever been convicted of a felony.
He recommended me to not lie,not ever buy a new firearm from a dealer because i'd be technically lying on the form and could get in serious trouble with the feds if i did.

Is this really how things go here in Louisiana? The state says you can own firearms but you can't buy one from a dealer or online because you risk the feds knocking on your door.
I'm really confused
Up until last year the feds and Louisiana agreed. As of mid last year the fed decided to change their interpretation of who in Louisiana is prohibited. Their position now is that since Louisiana will not let you have a CHP then that restriction is enough for the fed to not allow you to be able to possess a firearm at all.
So in a nutshell you cannot even possess the firearms that you have according to federal law.
Get with your local representatives and tell them to fix this by changing LARS 40:1379.3 (c)(10) . This is the Louisiana law that the fed is using to restrict.
I think....not sure, that it is the FBI that runs NICS, not ATF.
New poster here. I was just doing some research and joined because of this thread. I had an expungement about 20 years ago. I have bought guns for years afterwards.I was put on hold for a purchase yesterday, I guess I know why now. I will be looking for updates, good info here.
I thought that if you were delayed that they had three days to respond with a proceed or denial and if they did not then the dealer is allowed to proceed by default. Did they change the rules? Is there no longer a time limit on delays?
Update- I never received a "proceed" or a "denial" on the NICS check. The wait period ended and I gave it another week. There was still a "delay" on the background check a week later. I will update if I get a letter.
