Gonna buy a gat.

**sizerp** · 08-11-2009, 08:45 PM

Thinking about buying my first piece, anyone have any suggestions?

Should I get a conceal permit? Live in FL. Also, should I invest in a safe and shit? What's are some reasonable prices for legit pieces?

It's not against my bond rules to have a firearm.

What are you becoming a drug dealer? Why do you need a gun, concealed weapons permit, and a safe?

All this is not a smart move while you are on probation or whatever you are on, even if it is not illegal, they will still notice

**RangersLTW** · 08-11-2009, 09:15 PM

Well if u have a violent charge or a felony u can hang it up unless you get denied from a background check and fill out proper paper work to get it approved

**Dancer** · 08-11-2009, 09:16 PM

go to a gun show

**RangersLTW** · 08-11-2009, 09:21 PM

or strip show and show your gat lol

Im not becoming a drug dealer lol. I just want to have a reliable defensive handgun. I have 2 room-mates and would want a safe to keep it SAFE duh. Just been having some sketch people and circumstance around the house lately.

No violent charges here, and it's not against my bond or probate to own a firearm, or have one in the house. Just spoke with my supervision officer. How would they know I bought a gun? The court that is, unless I told them?

I think it gets reported to the police office if you have any type of record. I say this because I knew a guy who tried to buy a gun on probation and instead got his friend to buy it and the cops found out and arrested him I guess.

IDK another reason could be they might what to have that information in your records so when a cop gets called to the house or something they know when they check on their computer you have a firearm for safety reasons. I am just guessing have no idea about Florida's gun law...

Best glock of all^^^^^^^

**RangersLTW** · 08-11-2009, 10:33 PM

What happens is you get called in for a background check, the person on the phone says hold please comes back ask for address given. Either cops show up in a few depends on the charge/warrant or go to the given address. If buddy buys firearm knowing that the person he is buying it for can not purchase it, it is called a straw sale.

**RangersLTW** · 08-11-2009, 10:35 PM

Ya but I was stating sub compact.......
23,19 is compact
21,22,17 full size

oh and I agree lol

**DOM6** · 08-11-2009, 10:39 PM

is t here felony charges pending? and for what?
im a felon that did probation but not convicted, so i went thru alot of shit to get my gunz, i got thrown out of 20 different gun shops when i told them my charges, but 1 guy ran me and, APPROVED
it all matters on a CONVICTION and thats all, You will know if you did cause you have to sign a paper saying YOU HAVE NO MORE RIGHTS, even if you did get convicted you can still get 1 if you go get your rights restored, my boy mike had a battery on a leo, i mean fuked the guy up, went to prison for like 5 yrs, got out and got his rights restored , now he has more gunz then i do

**DOM6** · 08-11-2009, 10:42 PM

go to a gun show, and people stand around holding there guns in the open, just ask if its for sale and buy it, it only has to go thru a FFL transfer if its thru a DEALER

**RangersLTW** · 08-11-2009, 10:43 PM

Ya it is a good piece....try a ranger trigger for 23 and barsto barrell...love mine

**RangersLTW** · 08-11-2009, 10:44 PM

agreed with DOM6 but make sure to get a bill of sale at least.....due to obvious reason
Still not traceable but if you can get a legally then his way is better no TAX

**DOM6** · 08-11-2009, 10:44 PM

Best bet, go to a Pawn shop and have them run you, imo you'll get a thing called a "Conditional" cause they want to do further checking into your background, and then the fdle will decide

You need to fix that problem, the gun wont, go get your permit you will learn alot in there, its not really a class to learn how to shoot but more on how to get away with it, best thing to do also, is the first round in your gun use a simulation round "Rubber bullet" so if you shoot whoever it wont kill them, they will probaly take off running but if they still pursue you, plug them till they drop. I usally carry a 380 with the 1st bullet rubber so if i end up in front of a jury i didnt mean to kill the guy, and get a good safe and remember when you go to carry your gun, take the gun out your safe and put your ego in the safe, act as if isnt there

**RangersLTW** · 08-11-2009, 11:01 PM

Nah just whisper stop or I will shoot three times and then increase his weight with lead......in court they ask why did you reload because everytime I shot him he moved......lol

**RangersLTW** · 08-11-2009, 11:02 PM
