Re: Pa instant check system
I think the key word here is "Felony" You will be asked questions about imprisonment, felony arrest for stalking, abuse, etc. and a lot more but I am pretty sure a DUI will go thru ok. You will never know unless you try.
Rehab is for quitters!!

Re: Pa instant check system
The LTCF app asks:
ARE YOU NOW CHARGED WITH, OR HAVE YOU EVER BEEN CONVICTED OF A CRIME PUNISHABLE BY IMPRISONMENT FOR A TERM
EXCEEDING ONE YEAR? THIS IS THE MAXIMUM SENTENCE THAT YOU “COULD HAVE RECEIVED,” NOT THE ACTUAL SENTENCE YOU
DID RECEIVE. (THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE FEDERAL OR STATE OFFENSES PERTAINING TO ANTITRUST, UNFAIR TRADE PRACTICES,
RESTRAINTS OF TRADE, OR REGULATION OF BUSINESS; OR STATE OFFENSES CLASSIFIED AS MISDEMEANORS AND PUNISHABLE BY
A TERM OF IMPRISONMENT NOT TO EXCEED TWO YEARS.)
and
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN INVOLUNTARILY COMMITTED TO A HEALTH CARE FACILITY FOR A MENTAL CONDITION
I've actually had 2 DUIs One in 2002 and one in 2004. Only the 2004 shows up on the search from the link I provided above. It is classified as a M2 so I checked No on the application for that question and No for the other since it was voluntary.
My concern is that if I am prohibited for some reason, is attempting to purchase a firearm a punishable offense? I don't want to try to buy this weekend, get denied then have the sheriff knocking on my door Monday morning with an arrest warrant.

Re: Pa instant check system
the only way you can get in trouble is if you intentionaly lie
and stop driving drunk one more and no more gun and the possibility of killing someone is an issue as well

Re: Pa instant check system
As far as I know (I'm not a lawyer) no, you can not get in trouble for trying to purchase a gun, you either get approved or denied, as long as you were truthful on the application. Also it is possible to be allowed to buy a gun but fail to get a LTCF as the criteria are slightly different.
By the way, a few weeks in DELCO is nothing to worry about for the LTCF. I just did a renewal and it took 32 days to get the approval. The first time it took 52.

Re: Pa instant check system
I get what you're saying. If I thought I was prohibited I wouldn't have put my LTCF application in. I'm just trying to figure out if I can get arrested if I attempt to buy a gun and the PSP say I'm prohibited.
