34. I tried to buy a gun in preparation for going to take my concealed handgun course so that I could get my concealed handgun license, but my purchase was denied. I contacted FBI/NICS to find out why I was denied. I even appealed their ruling but was still found to be denied. They said it was due to a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence that they said was from my 1994 Class C ticket for Assault by Contact on my wife. The court documents did not say anything about domestic violence. Will this really disqualify me from obtaining my handgun license?
Yes. If the FBI/NICS has finally determined that you are not eligible to purchase a firearm, then you will be disqualified from obtaining a concealed handgun license since you must be qualified under all federal and state laws to purchase or possess a firearm.
