Texas DPS says like .001% of CHL holders commit armed crimes.
It just doesn’t happen
This notion that George Zimmermann is some sort of trigger happy wacko is remote.
100% disabled?
Im sorry for your troubles.
Vets get **** for what they gave to the nation.
I spent 6 years in the US sub fleet on fast attack submarines and never even got a GI bill.
Did you see the one when he shot a suppressor/silencer on a Glock?
I had no idea they were legal...
There are plenty of wheelchair bound and disabled folks that carry concealed. It does require a bit of adaptation. I can remember it being discussed once or twice, but not in detail.
I wonder if there are organizations like the VFW & American Legion that will provide a ride to the polls? I’d be willing to volunteer for something like that!
A $200 tax stamp for a class III device makes all legal.
Machine gun, suppressor, short barrel rifle, what ever.
Supposedly you don’t need a stamp or anything to get a suppressor so said Hickock45.
I sent you the link did you see it?
I did not see it.
You do need a stamp. Suppressors are class III
I saw that. It was pretty sweet.
Silencers/suppressors are legal. One just has to jump through the hoops to get one.
I’m waiting for an email from a manufacturer about information about silencers and Colorado laws.
Unarmed?
Do y’all know what the #1 method of homicide is in the UK now that guns are illegal?
Putting the boot in
Thats right, getting kicked to death.
In the arab world the rock has been used for millennia.
I aint gonna let anyone “put the boot in”
From TSRA, Alice Tripp........
Current Texas law does not restrict the use of suppressors in the field when hunting non-game species such as exotic game, wild hogs, or coyotes; so the major addition would include mule and white-tail deer and antelope.
What’s a suppressor? Incorrectly called “Silencers”, a suppressor is a device, controlled by federal law through BATF which dampens the sound of gunfire. TSRA Legislative Committee Vice Chair commented, “If firearms were invented today, OSHA would require guns to include a suppressor to protect shooters from hearing damage.”
How can an individual purchase a suppressor? Several companies manufacture suppressors for rifles and handguns and the average retail cost runs between $700-$800. However, the individual will not take immediate possession of their suppressor; not until the purchaser receives final approval from BATF. Both the purchaser and their suppressor will then be registered with the BATF.
Step one is to complete the application process. The application must include the signature of a Chief Law Enforcement Officer (CLEO) in the county of residence. This could be the county sheriff, police chief, or even the district attorney. If the application is not signed by the CLEO, the quest for a suppressor stops. Finding a signer for your application is not always easy.
When all is complete, including finger prints for the background check, the application and a one-time check for $200 are mailed to BATF and the wait begins. Processing time can take up to 6 months for a perfectly prepared application package.
Note: It is possible to shelter and to by-pass some of the steps involved in acquiring class III devices within a trust or corporation, speak with your family lawyer to decide what’s right for you.
Don’t forget to add-in the cost for a gunsmith to thread your barrell. The resale of a suppressor from one individual to another requires these same steps. A suppressor remains registered in the name of the owner until legally transferred. The penalty for an illegal suppressor or an illegal transfer is severe.
Ooops... there goes the KIDO feed. :(
Did we lose the KIDO stream?
And FR seems extra slow today too...
You’re right, my bad. They made it sound like just buying a handgun.

And now its back..
In typical fashion, you are free if you pay
The way the law is written that if you are 100% & have a fiduciary you loose your right to have a firearm as well as your family,friends & neighbors [as defined by the va]. They [the va] fears that we might go off and start shooting up every one & every place we see.
Howdy my!
It’s always slow for me, but I read slow so it’s OK.
LOL
Then again half of the fun of the CZ 52 is its bark
