Here's one for ya'
About 7 or 8 months ago I filled out paper work to purchase a remington 700. I was denied. I was'nt sure why since I havent had any trouble buying firearms in the past so I went through the appeals process. After jumping through the hoops, filling out the papers, submiting finger prints. I finally got a response this week.
The appeal was denied because of 2 charges. One was a domestic violence charge from 2001 that was dismissed when the court determined that she fabricated it in an attempt to get ammunition in a custody case. The second was a dui from 2004. 7 years since I had any trouble. I have purchased a 12 guage, a .22, a 30-30, and a .40 handgun since then, but now I am not allowed to buy a rifle.
I ended up selling the handgun but would still like to replace it, and I would still like a bolt action rifle. Nothing says I cant try again.
