I got to thinking about this last week at the BFPE hearing, never really thunk it before.
I see hearings where people are denied because they fall under Lautenberg and are barred federally from getting a permit. When a someone is having their hearing, say I hear they have a felony conviction. Part of me is also thinking: "Under Lautenberg, that instructor just committed a felony by handing over the firearm to a convicted felon".
I guess I'm looking at where the real crime here is: Is the instructor just as guilty under the letter of federal law because the student is barred from handing a firearm?
Just a thought, ideas?
