The Brady Law got me.. (long)
I'd really push for the Ex post facto angle and make a BIG deal about it. I'm sure you can find incidences of people who were involved in a scrap in the past and now hold say public office and still own guns <cough cough>. Never underestimate a well written letter to the Editor of a local rag.

At the trail, the judge sentence me to 30 days in jail, and then suspended it. I was put on 90 days probation, and ordered to pay $265 doctor bill.

The first thing I am going to do when the letter arrives, is to take it to a lawyer, and ask his advice.
Then I will see where I go from there. The letter is in the mail, and I have been refused, not for losing the gun(s), but for having a scrap in a pool hall over 20 years ago.

Those convicted of crimes punishable by imprisonment for over one year, except state misdemeanors punishable by two years or less.
Might be time to contact an NRA attorney on the case....

"Those under indictment for, or convicted of, a crime punishable by imprisonment for a term exceeding one year;"
It doesn't matter if you pled guilty, no contest or had the record expunged or what punishment you actually received. When you received it is also irrelevant as Brady is retroactive to the beginning of the universe. If the law in your state says the max penalty for battery is 12 months or greater the mere posibility of receiving that 12 months+ disqualifies you from ever getting a gun again via the regular dealers network. (Or from the cops)
Ironically there were a bunch of cops that lost their job because of that little law. If you can't have a gun you can't be a cop.
Good Luck, you'll need it.

Wrong. There was a case several years back that ruled in favor of the non felon resident of the house. I'll look it up if your interested.
And a misdemeanor conviction is not a felony.

What a bunch of self-righteous jerk-offs we have here. The guy left his guns with relatives - somehow, the guns were lost.
As I see it, the people who took possession of the guns took RESPONSIBILITY for the safe keeping of them as well. You wanna cry your crap about him losing the guns - he didn't lose them - someone trusted to take care of them did. Give the guy a break !!

Maybe you should read on....
I dont know, reading all post is a pretty new concept, but just might be a good idea.
FYI... As a lifetime member of the NRA since I was six years old, and an owner of various sporting guns, avid hunter/shooter and an avid gun collector....
I most definatly take my right to own all these guns very personally and very dear. It's going to be something fairly major before I feel the need for ANYONE to not beable to own a gun if they wish.
But... if by any chance... under any circumstrance... any of them was no longer in my posession against my will and the where abouts of them were unkown......
Then yes, those things most defiantly would be the first things running through my mind. (even pre-registration) I don't know.. maybe call me responsiable. But I do hold myself accountable for my belongings. Might even call me a control freak! If I buy it, then I am in charge of it. If I am in charge of it, that makes me accountable for it. Can you give me one good thing that a gun stolen or bought on the black market was used for?
I can see being called any of thse things, (Responsiable, accountable, control freak) but moronic???? You'll have to explain how you derived to that conclusion.
