Hi Denise and Gina!
Thank you!
I might have been jumping to far forward, let me step back a bit...
Question... Does Nevada, specifically Clark county or whatever county LV
is in, does it allow purchasing of a firearm from someone out of state?
If the answer is YES, then I can buy what I want and bring it home with
me in luggage (good chance getting it stolen in luggage) or ship it via
private carrier, and register it at home, within 3 days.
I would have to check with private mailers like UPS, FedEx if they allow
firearms shipping. I don't know if USPS allows it. I kinda remember
posters at the PO saying its illegal.
Can anyone answer this? I can't seem to find anything online.
If the answer is NO (which was being uniformly told to me at the gun
show), then what do I do to be able to purchase. Does it require
residence and/or a permit?
If it requires a permit to purchase, is it immediate, or is there a wait
for a background check of so so days. If so, how many? and again is it
allowed for out-of-state?
I know that my permit from Hawaii is worthless in Nevada, it doesn't
cover over state lines.
So... if the above is negative ... how does one buy something if from
out of state?
Another scenario is...
IF the seller is legit, and if I can buy it, and the seller (who prob
has a ffl) will mail it to the ffl person in hawaii. Then again no
problem.
The question is: IS that seller legit going to do that? I would say yes
(as Gina agrees with) but I need to trust, and take a chance of losing
everything.
I can only say for hawaii ffl holders, all of them follow the same
thing, which requires sending a copy of their ffl to the seller, and the
seller sending a ffl copy to them, when transfering firearms, and
registering ownership. I was told its part of some requirement on the
federal level. It may be only a Hawaii thing....
IF the seller is sticking to Nevada laws and cannot allow any purchases
by someone out of state, or doesn't want to deal with holding and
shipping (which I also came across at the gun show...) How does one buy
a firearm from the show?
I was thinking of a gun dealer/store owner from LV that is willing to
help? Ideas?
