Can I buy a gun?
Got my greencard ( 2 year conditional ) in December. Question is can I purchase a firearm from a store lawfully?
Thanks. |
Re: Can I buy a gun?
Yes, unless you're a convicted felon, alcoholic, drug abuser, mentally unstable or under 18.

Thanks. I have no idea other than to tell you this -- you violate and are convicted of ANY firearm law, you are removable. If you are still married to a US citizen, the only remedy will be to apply for new green card via a new I-130 and adjustment of status. As you can tell, the gun laws of this country are quite convoluted. |

With a GC you are not excluded from owning a firearm, though there are exceptions for non-immigrants who are in possesion of a valid state hunting permit.
Learn the law, get lots of training and practice, join the NRA! You'll be fine!! |

You might have to take 90 days worth (take 120) of bills proving 3 months residency, along with every other piece of ID you own Passport, Driving Licence, GC (of course) take it all. What sort of Gun are you looking for. |

Thanks. I also hope that you've thought through the consequences of owning a firearm, regardless of whether you have children in your home or not. I speak as someone who shoots and has firearms in the home. |

Re: Can I buy a gun?
My advice is get your carry permit first.. can save a few problems.
There is a course held at the Tampa gun show at the show grounds next one is 28 feb/Ist Mar... I will probably be there.. Of course you can buy privately with an ID and a non felon declaration without any checks http://licgweb.doacs.state.fl.us/weapons/index.html |

Re: Can I buy a gun?
So what was the purpose of your question?
Do you want to get a permit for your illegal gun or do you just want to buy a bigger one legally? |
