Comment on Want a 3D printer in New York? Get ready for fingerprinting and a 15 day wait
imakeninjascry@lemmy.world 7 months agoIt’s definitely not a myth. I sold guns for Walmart for five years until mid 2022. The only people I couldn’t sell guns to were minors under 21 and residents of California, New York, and Illinois. We accepted IDs from every other state. And sometimes the background check was so quick they were even able to take it home same day.

You’re either missing something or you were committing a felony then. You can purchase guns in a state you don’t live in, but the gun needs to be sent to an in-state FFL who would make the transfer to you. This way you can’t sidestep your state laws by buying a gun in another state with laxer laws. Don’t take my word for it, here’s the ATF’s explanation.
