[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Can the police search your house if you have a C&R?

Posted: 1/11/2005 12:58:15 PM EDT

Some idiot at my gun club said that since I have a C&R license that the police can inspect my firearms without a warrant. I hope this is bullshit. So what is the deal?

I would not spend much time talking to idiots.

+1. And yes, I have a C&R. When in doubt, read the regs. Rest easy.

Well, considering that you don't even have to let the ATF in to go over your logbook (you can take the logbook to them, if they request a review)....

Make sure you tell him he's correct and ask if he would spread the word to everybody he knows.

Too many people getting C&R's. It leaves less guns and ammo for me.

Don't you just love Range Warriors. Wonder what Special Forces Seal Team Airborne Elite force he belonged to in Nam when he was 13?

That guy was FOS. The ATF can inspect your C&R logbook and firearms (to make sure they match up) but as mentioned above, you can bring them into to the ATF if you don't want them at your house.

I believe they may be confusing this with when you incorporate. If I remember correctly, if you incorporate (to make C III purchases easier) then they can. If I am wrong than I too much be one of those idiots you shouldn't talk to.

That's the whole problem with the BATFE. Not many of them really know their own regulations. It's all subject to interpretation by them anyways.
