Re: Restrictions on Interstate Sales/Transfers-UNCONSTITUTIO

It seem that at present anyway I would not be able to buy a handgun from a WI dealer while I am there, given all my ID is TX.

But I will find an LGS there one day and confirm. Thanks all.

If I had friends or family come to visit Texas from any other state, such as Oklahoma, or Georgia, and we went shopping here in Texas, they could buy a handgun from an FFL here directly even though they are not a Texas resident.
Pardon my ignorance please, but presently if I am out-of-state i.e. living at our vacation home Up North for several months, I can't walk into a gun shop there and buy a gun for our local use e.g. protection? That I'd have to bring such from TX?
