I would expect place of birth would be a degree of confirmation of the identity of the person being investigated

mk4, ...if a person is proscribed for transfer by atf4473, how does the person even have the firearm legally, for which he/she is requesting the ccw privilege? One may have a previously owned firearm or acquire one from other than an FFL. Feds lifetime disqualify for DV conviction, but VA does not. ...

This was a great Constitutional ruling, but there are many layers of infringing gun restrictions left in DC. Just like any state, you may be allowed to carry there, but it still has to be according to all of their rules peculiar to that jurisdiction, and there are even many jurisdictions within DC. ...

I thought I read somewhere at some time about the applicability of https://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?000+cod+18.2-308.2C1 § 15.2-915. Control of firearms; applicability to authorities and local governmental agencies A. No locality shall adopt or enforce any ordinance, resolution or motion...

If we are forced to retreat I will retreat to a state like TX or TN. [ Post made via Mobile Device ] http://vagunforum.net/images/mobile.png And I consider VA's rules to be superior to their's, since VA has open carry w/o permit. I was surprised, looking around, how many states that are trumpeted i...

Gun rights have gotten better in VA. All the fuss made about GA's new liberties have already been in effect for years here. Yes VA's teetering right now (and for the next 3 years of McAwful's term), but it's purple, not blue. Voting with your feet is a overall wise strategy, but we could tip back to...

Any good news developing on sending into remission and preventing the return of this horrible cancer on gun rights?

Keep in mind... out in the desert, you can see at ground level for as far as the eye and scope can see. You will know if a person or living creature is beyond your target. In the woods in VA, wide open spaces are limited and typically populated or close enough to population that its not happening s...

Someone new might be intimidated that the person behind the counter might fudge their application process over 50 cents, and elect to just pay it to make friends. I was hoodwinked trusting my clerk's office. The state police site says, http://www.vsp.state.va.us/Firearms_ResidentConcealed.shtm#Appli...

Thanks cc but that doesnt appear to address the sase issue PWC is charging $50 for CHP application, then asking $.50 or sase. That makes $50.50 for total application fee, and statute above strictly limits them to a max total of $50. When confronted, all 3 jurisdictions claimed it was a request, not...

You mean the sase is optional? http://leg1.state.va.us/cgi-bin/legp504.exe?000+cod+18.2-308.03 § 18.2-308.03. Fees for concealed handgun permits. A. The clerk shall charge a fee of $10 for the processing of an application or issuing of a permit , including his costs associated with the consultation...

Stafford and Warren counties corrected their policies after discussions challenging them on the policy.
Getting ready to email Norfolk on their glitches.

PWC is one of those lagging courts who still "request" an extra 50 cents or a SASE when submitting app for CHP, renewal, or replacement. The Clerk's too busy for a couple of weeks, but is "thinking" about changing the wording to add "optional" to at least be clearer tha...

I agree that there are not enough options of places to shoot. I think local governments should be bending over backwards to give to their local shooters, access to whatever range their LEO train at, with dedicated times/days/week set aside for appointments for civilians. On a rotating basis of inter...
