I wonder how many people who used a gun in self defense were questioned as to where they bought it?Dr. Dickie wrote: ↑Sun Feb 17, 2019 5:20 am
BUT, if your neighbor ever uses that gun in self-defense, and they ask where he bought it.
Sure, if he is willing to lie for you, nothing happens. But the longer the law is in effect, the less likely that will happen. As for the next year or so, they can simply say, I got it before the law. But eventually that does not work.
I've never heard of of it, its never been depicted on TV or in movies, its never come up on the news that reported a self defense incident, I've read hundreds of true crime books and never seen the subject come up.
The two times I had to present a gun in my defense, the questioning never came within miles of where I bought the gun.
DW and his gas station partner weren't asked where they bought their guns.
Three different arfcom members and more than one at Glocktalk were involved in shootings and posted lengthy and comprehensive stories of the shootings and their aftermath including police interviews without mentioning a thing about being asked where their guns were purchased.
As long as were delving down into fantasy here lets not limit it to self defense what about being stopped on the street with a gun?
Wouldn't place of purchase be just as big a question at a speed trap, fender bender or DUI checkpoint?
My buddy recovered his Star after it was used in a suicide and no one asked him where he bought it.
So maybe, just maybe you're stretching things here just a little?
