Is this the American Experience?
I live in Australia and I recently moved state.
Australia has six states and one territory, with slightly different laws applying to the road rules and so on.
I was a pistol shooter in my old state, the process of obtaining my handgun license took almost two years, you have to be accepted by the club, be a member for at least six months and pass a gun safety course, practical course and written test.
Then you can buy certain calibre guns, after waiting up to 28 days and only through a dealer.
You have to keep it at home in a safe with 3 mm thick walls, with an alarm you have to be able to respond to 24 hours a day or monitored with a camera to a hard drive in another location.
Then you can only take the gun back to the range to take part in an official competition.
Of which you have to compete in a minimum number a year or the police come looking for you!
You can’t take it into the woods to shoot at stuff.
Anyway l am in a new state and enquiring about getting a handgun license, (they aren’t transferable).
Even more difficult AND you have to be fingerprinted as well.
I personally draw the line at this….
Do any American states have such strict requirements?
Which state is the strictest?
