Applied late April (one of the first things we did after moving to Indiana). Got the permit around mid-August (sorry I don't have more exact dates), for a total of about 100 days. Was finally able to apply for membership to Atlanta Conservation Club range (requires LTCH) - I submitted my app...
It's bad enough this protection racket exists in the first place and that they have our money. In Washington state they are required to issue permits within 30 days (and no, they don't get to just wait 30 days and deny them; denial must be for valid cause, not for spite). Put some teeth into the...
Yes :) - and thanks for the welcome - but the nice thing about many other firearm friendly states (such as Washington, where we were for seven years before Florida) is that open carry doesn't require a license at all. So while IN does indeed appear firearm-friendly, there are still improvements...
If one were to move out of state and have an (earlier acquired) unexpired IN handgun permit, does it automatically become a non-resident permit or does such a thing have to be applied for separately?
Economically, though, it falls apart if one can buy "insurance" against the disaster one is insuring against while said disaster is already happening, for the same price as before it happened. Imagine if, for instance, one could buy home fire insurance while one's house was burning down. What...
And the PATRIOT act was about patriotism, and the Marketplace Fairness Act is about marketplace fairness... and don't get me started on any bill that claims to be "for the children". It's 1984 out there and all doubleplusungood.
I am reminded of the various acts and bills named in Ayn Rand's...
That's not far; we'll try to make that. If I do I'll have my gold and black flag, like my avatar. I presume there's (free?) parking at the courthouse?
Looks like it's near Prophetstown State Park. Good park for hiking? Looks like they have canoe/kayak rentals at reasonable rates.
I don't think this analogy works. The land claimed by the various US governments is nobody's "house"; there is instead a patchwork of millions of different private owners, and if someone wants to come on to property where the owner wants them - whether as employee, tenant, or guest - or onto...
As someone that has gone through the same process (through to citizenship), I do not believe that merely because I have experienced such expense and infringement it justifies inflicting it on others. But I certainly understand the sentiment. If Indiana moved to constitutional carry (no permits...
They do this every now and then through various approaches - I got my $300 life membership a few years ago through my wife's grandfather, also a life member, sponsoring me for it. Definitely don't pay $1k for it.
I'd just renewed for a year, too, at the time (the range I belonged to, in...
Thanks. Indeed. We keep running across these "coat" and "glove" things and we're not sure what they're for.... :D I dare say we'll find out.
I spent a lot of time in Canada and my wife grew up in WV so we'll survive... but you'll right, we will miss constant (360 days a year of) sunshine.
My wife and I recently moved from the St. Petersburg/Tampa area of Florida (I will be starting a new lead engineer job Monday). We are in the Fishers area. Yesterday I showed up on the first frosty morning I've seen in years at a "code and coffee" meetup.com event, and asked if any of the...
