    I have a problem with this: page 3/17

    (c) The person is a citizen of the United States and is a

    19
    legal resident of this state. For the purposes of this section, a

    20
    person shall be considered a legal resident of this state if any of

    21
    the following apply:

    As it now stands a legal resident alien who is not a citizen can purchase, own and carry a pistol, this legislation appears to make it illegal as they are residents but not citizen's per se.

    I like the fact that this is all laid out and clarified, but I'm also sad that it had to be.

    Dealers cannot make visual records of transactions (other than normal video surveillance.

    Purchase Permit good for 30 days instead of 10.

    Multiple Purchase Permits at one time only require one questionnaire to be filled out.

    Purchase Permits will be free of charge.

    Think that pretty much covers it.

    To quote Nancy Pelosi, you'll just have to wait until it's passed to read it then.
