interesting:
Q. Are police, military and corrections officers who are exempt in their professional capacity also exempt in the private capacity? A. Yes. The exemptions for police, military and corrections officers apply on and off duty. I thought it was only during execution of official duties but I guess some people are more equal than others? |

That is not what they said last night while the bill was being floated in the House... You can use the weapon while you are on the clock. LEO & military folk are held to the same standard as civilians in regards to buying weapons from this point on. That is my understanding - & how it should be. No one is special here. |

Miner & Dargan went round-and-round on this for a bit. Miner was concerned that a janitor for the Dept of Corrections could go buy an AW after the ban. Dargan said if the dept. buys the firearm for them to use on the job then anything goes. If it is a personal purchase then it must comply with laws for everyone else. These employees are, however, allowed to carry full capacity both on/off duty. |

This is interesting and suggests that guns and mags for which orders have been placed can be satisfied. Somebody tell AIM as they canceled a buddies mag order placed yesterday!
Q. If I own a gun that is going to be banned, what do I need to do? A. If you own one or more of the assault style guns the bill now bans, you must register the guns with the Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection (D.E.S.P.P.) before January 1, 2014 and get a certificate of possession for that firearm. People in possession of newly designated assault weapons who fail to register their firearms will have committed a Class A misdemeanor for a first time violation. Subsequent violations of the law will be classified as a Class D felony. If you have bought one of these guns and are waiting for delivery, you will be allowed to keep it as long as you register the gun. If it comes with a large magazine, you will be able to keep that as well. |

I've got a weird question
I've owned my "AW" guns legally but cant own pistols cause I have one of those misdemeanors on my record. the top of the FAQ says I can reg and keep them. but at the bottom it says the certificate of possession requires a retro active background check.. I wont be able to get a long gun certificate because they added those 11 misdemeanors to the disqualifying factors for long guns. am I still grandfathered or do I need lube? |

True, but they do qualify as state military force, and have the exemption for post-ban mags. It would be hilarious to boost their numbers, and make the ban ineffective. Just another way to give stuttering Dan the finger. |
