Bellvue Sarpy Co NFA transfers

feeds@yuku.com (David Hineline) — Wed, 16 Jul 2008 16:25:43 GMT

I have sold a silencer into Bellvue just wondered if the buyer is better off going with the city chief of police or county sheriff for the CLEO signature.

So my job just got posted

feeds@yuku.com (stratocaster81) — Wed, 16 Jul 2008 10:27:52 GMT

I'm pissed. The sign is maybe 3"x5" and it says NO SMOKING in big letters on the top and has the "No concealed weapons allowed blah blah blah" in small letters below it. It's on the front door only, not the back entrance that I (and many other employees) use.

I just finished my masters... this should make my decision of whether to stay or move elsewhere much easier. It'll be nice to give them the finger over this.

The office is in a nice...

Your first gun

feeds@yuku.com (rufusgooch) — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 17:09:56 GMT

I thought this would be fun for all. I was raised in Avoca, TN. Just outside of Bristol, (part of Bristol now) We lived 1/4 mile from nothin. You could walk througt the hills for hours. I got my first gun when I was twelve. I cut fire wood, and saved up $45.00. My dad ordered me a High Standard Semi Automatic 22 from a Herters catalog. Price $38.75 plus shipping. I've fired thousands of rounds through that gun. She has a special place in my safe. My kids are 23 and 20 now; I...

Question,
Can we carry concealed in Hayworth Park, Bellevue?

Affimative Defense

feeds@yuku.com (rluening) — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 19:00:36 GMT

I understand that we give up the Affirmative Defense when carrying under the authority of a CCW permit.

Sitting here in class, bored and browsing statutes, I find this:

69-2445. Carrying concealed weapon under other law; act; how construed.

Nothing in the Concealed Handgun Permit Act prevents a person from carrying a concealed weapon as permitted under...

Lincoln City Parks CCW?

feeds@yuku.com (Escotch) — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 12:27:15 GMT

Does anyone know the laws on carrying in Lincoln City parks/bike paths etc?
I can't find it anywhere on google or the city site or anywhere else.
I think its ok but want to know for sure.

Fairly positive LEO experience

feeds@yuku.com (tyserj) — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 10:13:57 GMT

Just thought I would share a kind of positive experience.

Got pulled over for making a right turn on red in Lincoln. Immediately informed the officer of my carry status as required to do. I was nervous so I said something idiotic i'm sure, along the lines of 'officer, I am a concealed weapon carry permit holder. She asked if I was carrying at this time (yes), and where the firearm is (on my back). She asked me not to make any sudden moves or reach for it. The officer...

Response to a letter to the NSP about "printing" and unintentional exposure.

feeds@yuku.com (Plattsmouth2Offutt) — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 17:30:15 GMT

Thought this might be of interest. This is a response from the NSP legal council team to a question I asked on the NSP site. You should get the gist of what I asked by the content.

The response:

Nebraska statutes contain nothing related to "printing". The statutes simply say that a handgun is considered concealed if no part of the weapon is visible and it is not considered concealed if any part of the handgun is capable of being seen. The statutes do not...

How fast can you acquire your weapon and engage the target?

feeds@yuku.com (jthhapkido) — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 07:35:33 GMT

This post came from another topic in which several people posted their times for draw-and-fire. It seemed to me that starting a discussion on speed of acquisition, racking the slide, and other such details of use of concealed carry might be handy---particularly because people were posting times MUCH quicker than I've ever managed. As such, if there is something they are doing that could make me better, I'd like to know about it!

So,...

Dealers with large CZ selection?

feeds@yuku.com (stratocaster81) — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 16:58:26 GMT

I'm looking for a dealer between Kearney and Omaha that stocks a variety of CZ handguns. I'm considering a 75B or SP-01. The only place I've seen them was a 75 Compact at Scheels in Lincoln and a 40B at Cabelas in La Vista (plus the odd 75B at a gun show). Any ideas?

Comments on the 75B and SP-01 are welcome. These guns would be for home and range, not carry.

Are you packing ?

feeds@yuku.com (HastingsNE) — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 10:35:38 GMT

No cheating....
Are you carrying RIGHT NOW THIS SECOND ?

How close is it to you ?
Time needed at this second to protect youself........

Happy Independence Day!

Celebrate our wonderful American independence. Give a thought to those brave souls who bravely stood for their rights and freedom before the most powerful military in the world.

Need help Drafting a letter.

feeds@yuku.com (FLUFF) — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 14:11:28 GMT

I need some help from some of the literary types and lawers on the fourm. I noticed a no handgun sign in the window of the Doniphan, Ne Pump and Pantry today. Not a very big sign and about 8 ft to the side of the door, but it was posted. I want to send Chuck Bosselman a nice letter and request that he change to policy and remove the signs in Doniphan. I am sure that the other Pump and Pantry locations are also posted. Any help with the letter, so I don't come off as a dumb redneck would...

There are several people in Nebraska that feel they need to train you for multi permits. Do your homework. A lot of states will accept your training/military service. Do not get pulled into the pay me for five states training; when what they give you is accepted at half the cost. Ne training is accepted by 18 states for non resident.

Request for advice/assistance: Permit denied

Hello everyone,

I'm going to try this again because the first time I tried to post it I must have hit cancel instead of post because it vanished.

Here's the story: long, long ago I and some friends of mine were exploring an abandoned shack and due to some excess youthful stupidity on the part of one of the other guys, the shack burned down. According to the findings, this amounted in no dollar value worth of damages because the property was worth nothing. My...
