What I’m asking /saying is having getting my ltc restored after an oui charge 30 years ago , I am under the impression that making gun purchases could cause me a problem. So I’m simply asking if anyone else in my shoes has bought anything without getting a visit or hate mail from anyone making legal threats. Just a simple question. I don’t want to get jammed up
So, I know someone who lost their DL for a OUI charge. Here's how it worked out in mass:
Step 1: Revocation of LTC
Step 2: CWOF after loss of license and refusing a field sobriety test.
Step 3: Went through all the fallout (breathalyzer in car, mandatory classes, etc.).
Step 4: Reapplied for LTC, was denied because of OUI, suggest FID instead.
Step 6: Denied FID, grabbed lawyer.
Step 7: FID Granted, held FID for 10 years with no legal issues of any kind.
Step 8: Re-applied for LTC, denied because of OUI.
Step 9: Moved to RI, applied for LTC- Denied because "nobody gets LTC out of the gate."
Step 10: Get pistol purchase card, have pistol for some time.
Step 11: Apply for LTC, still pending.
If you live in MA, that OUI is going to haunt you forever, luckly, you won't be stuck with "hunting and target only" anymore, but on the flip of the coin you'll be in a pass/fail loop and mostly fail. If you live in NH, nobody gives a shit about your OUI. I don't know why you think the police are going to pound at your door unless you own firearms illegally under state law, or conversely federal law if you trigger the felon clause on the 4473 for your OUI, people will give a shit about that.
This post kind of reads that you know what you're doing is probably not legal, but you're looking for some sort of reinforcement that you're not wrong. The law isn't hard to follow, so ask yourself- are you following the law?
