I don't live in South Dakota. I don't work in South Dakota.
But my Drivers license is South Dakota because it's way to much work to transfer it
As a result, I can only buy handguns in a state I DO NOT reside in (South Dakota).
I am legally *prohibited* from buying handguns in the state I do actually live and work
but I can only buy handguns in the state I DO NOT live or work in and bring them here.
Tell me how that's supposed to make sense. I thought Amendments applied to the ENTIRE NATION. Am I wrong? What other amendments only apply to some states but not other states? In what state do I not have a right to free speech? In what state do I not have a right against unreasonable search and seizure?
Given the quantity of obscure laws and that I'm not a lawyer I can't rule that out. I can say that it's not my intent to brake any law regarding my driver's license.And you are likely violating the state law of the state you are living in which likely requires you to obtain their driver's license within a certain period of time of establishing residency there.
Yes, legaly.Not legaly
Are you not aware of the interstate handgun transfer ban?Why? The state you reside in IS the state you are legal to purchase handguns in.
If I went to an FFL today and bought a handgun, they are legaly required to ship it to an FFL in SD and I would have to go to SD to pick it up, because my drivers license is SD. That's the law.Again, not legally.
Abramski bought the gun from a federally licensed firearms dealer (FFL), completed the required paperwork, and successfully underwent a background check. Because his uncle lived in another state, Abramski could not lawfully transfer the firearm directly to him. He therefore gave the firearm to an FFL in his uncle’s state of residence, and the uncle then received the firearm through that FFL. This meant Abramski’s uncle completed his own transfer paperwork and went through his own successful background check. The government did not allege that either party was prohibited or had any intention of thwarting prohibited person laws.
That's just it, though: I don't "actually live" anywhere. There is no location where I consistently return to at the end of the day. I travel a lot for work and some of the places I stay have no adress at all because they're temporary lay-down yards zoned as cattle grazing fields, not residences.Blueshell,
The state of residence for purchasing handguns is the state you live in, which may or may not be the same state you have a driver's license from. Question #2 on the form 4473 asks for your CURRENT residence address. When you put in a South Dakota address in that block because that is what is on your driver's license and you don't actually live there - that is falsifying the information on the form and a Federal felony.
No changing the drivers license is easy because you can use a temporary adress for it like a UPS store. I have been denied a handgun purchase in SD because the adress on my SD license is a UPS store adress.But, hey, it's just too much trouble to change your driver's license, right?
My car is registered to the same adress my license is. My taxes were filed using the same adress. I don't hunt or fish.In regards to purchasing a handgun in a state of residence your driver's license is not from - block 20b on the form 4473 allows for a second government issued document to be entered to prove state of residence such as a hunting or fishing license, tax statement, vehicle registration, etc that shows the CURRENT residence address on it. The driver's license serves as the identification document and the second government issued document serves as the proof of state of residence.
OK Mr.KnowItAll, you tell me how to buy a handgun from an FFL without having a 'residence adress' due to frequent travel. I await your wisdom.You clearly have no understanding of handgun purchasing laws.

How's that foot taste?Illegally.
It shouldn't.It never ceases to amaze me when folks post something on the internet that amounts to a confession of committing a crime.

To my knowledge all states have such a time restriction. However, the clock starts upon becoming a resident of the state, and residency it typicaly defined as maintaining a residence within the state.Unless you're active duty military I bet that the state you DO live in has laws that require you get that's states drivers license, register your vehicles in that state, transfer your vehicle insurance to a carrier recognized in the state you live in.....etc., etc.
I stated it 10 months ago, and you were the first respondent in that thread: http://www.usacarry.com/forums/gene...tf-requires-you-have-domicile.html?highlight=Simple, you never stated until post #6 that you had NO residence address.
