Constitutional Rights Restored!!!

[Firemedic1974]

So... Some of you might have read my post last night. I was the guy who got inot a little troublw when I was 18 yo, got probabtion BEFORE judgement, and walked away thinking I was free and clear. Now at 40ish I was denied my 2nd Amendment rights last year to purchase a firearm because the paperwork back then was misfiled. Well.... Over $15K later, headaches, court dates, and lots of paperwork... My rights have been restored!!

I sucessfully purchased a Colt 6920 5.56, and am damn happy with it! It leads me to think a little deeper now that my trials and tribulations are over. How many law abiding citizens due to red tape, burecracy, a misfiled paper, a small screw up 20 years ago are having their Constitutional rights denied while the real criminals play by a different set of rules. Lets face it, it's generally not the known criminal who goes to a gun store and puts himself through a state or federal check.

I am happy my situation is resolved, I just hope there are others who never have to feel like less of an American because of things like what I went through.

Good for you! Shame that you had to pay for what was rightfully yours.

Congratulation! Now get educated on the Gun laws on this forum and others so you can keep your rights.

Thank you, I will become educated, and I will enjoy my rifle! Thank God we live in PA. We are sandwiched in between two States where being a gun owner might as well be a sin.

Probably the best 15K you ever spent. Enjoy it.

Rep sent.

Freedom isn't free.

Respect to you for fighting the good fight and winning.

Enjoy your new rifle.

It was a long road I'm sure. Congratulations. I sound like my Father when I say that things you do as a youth will or can come back to haunt you so make good choices.

I am amazed at how many of these stories I hear.
Yours may be the first one where your rights are restored.

I hope, honestly, that you learned a valuable lesson and pass it on if you have children.
