Title: Hpd gun registration
Post by: Dolomite on December 05, 2012, 01:04:29 PM
Went down the other day and the line was right at the scanner.... 2.5 hr wait and that's after all the people picking up permits went to another line....

The officers at the window were trying their best to process everything coming in.... Hats off to those 2 guys who very cool...

People learn how to read and complete the paperwork properly, city and zip code needs to be entered on the forms. The officer had to ask each applicant what city they live in and the zip code, even nationality.... That's why the line takes so long....

Nationality - USA
Everyone filling out a permit to acquire should be a citizen since this state only issues permits to citizens. It really doesn't need to be on the form.

I think they should have the forms out where you can just grab one and fill it out so you're ready when you get to the window. They should also have a big poster that tells you specific instructions on how to fill out the forms.

good point about the nationality ethnicity. With that you need to be specific. Can't write just "asian", needed to be specific and write "Japanese"

Dunno if anyone noticed, but they recently added a check box for "Hispanic" or something like that on the 4473.

You have to be a citizen to acquire in this state so why even put it on the form?

Simple...To have people put it on paper for documentation. It's the same reason you have to check yes/no for all those qualifying questions.

Sure, the whole thing seems silly for those who go prepared, have/use common sense, and are honest. But not everyone is like that.

Does the form say nationality or ethnicity? I haven't had to fill one out for months so I forget.

I believe it says ethnicity.

On my first long gun permit application, I put "Asian" and the officer crossed it out.   ???

Donde esta el bano?   :D
