The Virginia legislature is currently considering a bill to require a permit to purchase *any* firearm. This includes your standard hunting shotguns and rifles.
This bill would require you:
- to be fingerprinted
- to have taken a class with live fire training within the last 2 years. The classes will likely cost hundreds of dollars and take months to schedule due to the restrictions they are placing on instructors
- to apply for the permit which can take up to 45 days for approval. The permit would have a fee, probably $50. The purchase permit, including fingerprinting, would need to be renewed, probably every 5 years
In addition, a firearm dealer would still need to run the standard background check when you purchase a gun, and there will likely be a 5-day waiting period after the background check is approved!
If you want to fight this and other restrictions on firearms, please share the word about VCDL's Lobby Day, which is on Monday, January 19th at the Capitol in Richmond: [https://www.facebook.com/share/1AKnDQM6X2/].
