ptsd Ptsd And Fire Arm Purchase

[cbtvet]

Has anyone ever heard of sc ptsd veteran being turned down on firearms purchase due entirely to their symptoms.

Nope...Never been denied a permit for SC PTSD. Only thing I understand gets in the way is if you are convicted of a Felon but don't quote me on that. I live in NC and have applied through the County sherriff's office where they do a background check and have you come back a week or so later to pick up the permit. Hope this helps you out.

Learn your State's Laws, they are all different. Here in CA, when you want to buy a rifle etc, you must shop thru a registered delaer ... and you must answer the same questions for each firearm purchase: felony? drug addictions? declared incompetant by the courts for being crazy, etc. SO far, I have not had any problems with the law and getting firearms, knock on wood. ~Wings

No, I have bought several handguns, rifles and shotguns in the last several years after being diagnosed with PTSD, it had been a couple of years since I have bought any though. I seen to remember some questions asking if I had ever been declared incompetent by the court, or any felonies. I would not volunteer any information regarding being diagnosed with PTSD though, unless it has led to criminal issues you were convicted of. Don't think you will have a problem.
