My Problem or so-called opinion on CC with permit

musky1011 · Jul 19, 2011

Why in this day and age would we need permits to carry? Don't get me wrong I am not against self protection..What bothers me is the data base they are going to collect on gun owners.
I realize it is not gun registration but it is gun owner registration..The law states that police cannot access the info I believe without cause

What about agencies that do not have to abide by the Constitution of the USA as in FEMA and the UN
Are we just slitting our own throats per say as gun owners to gun confiscation under "National Emegergencies" that FEMA can announce at anytime even under financial emergencies

I do know that states have made laws against gun confiscation but FEMA and the UN do not have to follow these laws as they are immune from USA laws

What say you????

Just my simple "Rant of a Lunatic""

That was the huge beef we had when this was being discussed.

Yea.. and even if you keep a couple of "unregistered" firearms around (private party purchase)... I am thinking if they come to get your registered firearms (because you are a registered permit holder), thay ain't gonna stop at just the registered firearms... better have some good hiding places...

the problem is the world these days loves to data mine you; they mine your stuff when you buy a gun- though those forms are never supposed to leave the gun store, pay with a credit card it's recorded there too, some states you have to register the gun, then there's the steeeeeeenkin permit matters, if they're not collecting your money, they're collecting your name and other relevant data. all this without a search warrant (in some cases).

Every time you buy a gun (unless in private sale) there is a NICS check. The government already knows we own guns, and not to sound paranoid, but I'm pretty sure they could track us down from our posts here if they wanted to. There is no real information security once something has been put on a computer like NICS checks. Our only hope is electing the people who share our belief in the RKBA. Not saying they won't spy on us but hopefully they wouldn't try to take our guns.

Could someone clarify for me how FEMA is not bound by federal laws?

Every year, WI sells about 650,000 gun deer hunting licenses. This doesn't include grouse hunters, duck hunters, turkey hunters. If you've ever bought a hunting license, or taken a hunter safety class through the WI DNR, you're already on "a list".

Combine all the "lists" in the U.S.A. and start confiscatin. I dare ya. Being on a list with about 80,000,000 other gun owning Americans is not something I fear. Bring it.

I wouldn't be surprised if the DOJ announces that a CCW permit was have the serial number for the concealed weapon on it (ie, I am licensed to conceal guns XXXXXXXX and ZZZZZZZ, but I'll be fined if I carry gun AAAAAAA.)

I realize that the odds of this happening are incredibly small, but the DMV requires licensing for vehicles, and the VIN has to match the registration. But what is to stop it? Has anyone seen anything like this in any of there readings?

No.

individuals who apply for a license under this section and
a renewal form for use by individuals applying for

^ Thanks! I haven't had a chance to really read through it all, so I appreciate that! I'm waiting for the official classes to be posted, so the instructors can walk us through the do's and do not's of CC.

I've never been able to interpret law.

smithman · Jul 20, 2011

Anybody who has purchased a firearm in the last 30 years already has a checkmark in the "armed" column of their government file. Having a carry permit in WI legally says nothing more than you own a knife, firearm, or electronic weapon somewhere in your house. They already know who is armed and who is not, permit or not!

Yeah, I know what you mean. The hard part is unpacking it to follow all the subsections and references. For instance,

(2) ISSUANCE AND SCOPE OF LICENSE. (a) The depart-
ment shall issue a license to carry a concealed weapon to
any individual who is not disqualified under sub. (3) and
who completes the application process specified in sub.
(7).

So then you follow the reference to sub. (3):

Subsection 3
(3) RESTRICTIONS ON ISSUING A LICENSE. The depart-
ment shall issue a license under this section to an individ-
ual who submits an application under sub. (7) unless any
of the following applies:
(a) The individual is less than 21 years of age.
(b) The individual is prohibited under federal law
from possessing a firearm that has been transported in
interstate or foreign commerce.
(c) The individual is prohibited from possessing a
firearm under s. 941.29.
(d) The court has prohibited the individual from pos-
sessing a dangerous weapon under s. 969.02 (3) (c) orSubsection 7
(7) SUBMISSION OF APPLICATION. An individual may
apply for a license under this section with the department
by submitting, by mail or other means made available by
the department, to the department all of the following:
(a) A completed application in the form prescribed
under sub. (5) (a).
(b) A statement that states that the information that
he or she is providing in the application submitted under
par. (a) and any document submitted with the application
is true and complete to the best of his or her knowledge.
(c) A license fee in an amount, as determined by the
department by rule, that is equal to the cost of issuing the
license but does not exceed $37. The department shall
determine the costs of issuing a license by using a 5-year
planning period.
(d) A fee for a background check that is equal to the
fee charged under s. 175.35 (2i).
(e) Proof of training as described under sub. (4) (a).
969.03 (1) (c).

and sub. (7):

Subsection 7
(7) SUBMISSION OF APPLICATION. An individual may
apply for a license under this section with the department
by submitting, by mail or other means made available by
the department, to the department all of the following:
(a) A completed application in the form prescribed
under sub. (5) (a).
(b) A statement that states that the information that
he or she is providing in the application submitted under
par. (a) and any document submitted with the application
is true and complete to the best of his or her knowledge.
(c) A license fee in an amount, as determined by the
department by rule, that is equal to the cost of issuing the
license but does not exceed $37. The department shall
determine the costs of issuing a license by using a 5-year
planning period.
(d) A fee for a background check that is equal to the
fee charged under s. 175.35 (2i).
(e) Proof of training as described under sub. (4) (a).

And keep following the references until they are all laid out (unpacked) and then just start reading them in the order they are presented.... It may take several readings to fully understand what is going on.

Nevada requires one to QUALIFY with the gun they are going to carry, but they count ALL revolvers as the same. Brand and model is listed on the permit!
Calif. I believe requires to serial number of THE gun you are authorized to conceal to be on the permit. But, remember, I don't know anyone who actually HAS a Calif. permit to see for myself.

One of my best friends has a California CCW. I will send him a message to inquire about that.

I beg to differ. You CPL means nothing as to if you have/or have not obtained a weapon. It only says you are legal to carry one concealed, if you do have one to conceal. You can borrow a weapon from a graddad/dad/brother/buddy if you want. You will be legal.

For many years I had several weapons that had been obtained well before the GCA 1968 ever happened. WA went backwards in 1961 and required a CPL if you wanted to carry concealed (thanks to the Black Panthers in Seattle and Calif.). Before 1961 there was no permit requirment. When I received my first CPL the state had no idea if I had a concealable weapon or not and did not care.

I am sure it is the same in WI, there will be many people that have weapons that were obtained well before 1968, or inherited from someone that obtained them before 1968...That will not prohibit them from obtaining a CPL, or carrying those weapons...and I'll bet they will not have to disclose what weapons they do have to obtain one.

A few years back I got into this discussion with a WWII veteran. I will never forget this statement of his, "There is no force on Earth that can disarm 70 million people if those people choose not to be disarmed." It is said that there are 70 million gun owners in this country. The total number in law enforcement, the military and military reserves combined in the USA is 3 million. I like those odds.

That would suck. Buy a gun, wait the 48 hour cool off before you can pick it up (I think that if you're a CCW holder, that cool off should be waived, but that's a different argument for a different thread), then you have to wait 45 days for your permit to be updated and reissued. Oh, and don't forget the processing fee I'm sure they would tack on to it. Another $50 to reissue the permit you already had......

Dave did some excellent research, and I thank him for that. California is weird about a lot of things out there, and I had heard similar stories about the gun licensing on the permit but never knew anyone who had one. I'm hoping Dave is right

With your purchase, they got your name on a piece of paper.
With your purchase, you got to take possession of your gun; so who came out ahead on the deal???

Thought so...

This is true but....

The 70 million are not gonna be of much help, if and when "they" come knocking on an individuals door.... and I could be wrong but I would think that the 3 million militay might be a little more well armed (think F22 Rapture) than the average gun owner...

Just Sayin....

That being said, I totally agree with the concept that if all 70 million were able to unite at the same moment in time it (we) would be a force to be reckoned with.... Or at the very least, if I had already made the decison to lay down my life in protecting whats mine.... so would I....
