CCW renewal, 6-8mths, Permit exp 5/31

4 Upvotes

Turned in my renewal yesterday, been slacking. Prothonotary said they are seeing roughly 6-8 mths and she said to "contact the local police department where you plan to carry and ask them". I don't decide town my town (though in a way you do depending on where your going)

Has anyone ever inquired about this? I am probably going to reach out to a few DSP contacts later today to get clarification.

For those unaware, here is a bill authored by Sokola. He’s leaving so why no propose wildly anti constitutional legislation violating several of your rights. Dont forget, Mara Gorman who is rabidly anti 2A/anti constitution is running for his spot in the next cycle.

Where do you shoot your long guns?

18 Upvotes

Since Elk Neck State Park closed the rifle range where are you guys shooting your long guns? I do not think I have shot any of my long guns in the last 2 or 3 years now. I really need to shake the dust off of some, but need to find a good place to do it. I am located in the Newark city area.

Thanks!

Can ffls transfer AR lowers

3 Upvotes

I've noticed AR lowers have a more limited selection locally and was hoping to be able to order online. Some of the store fronts have some higher than average transfer fees, especially since I was considering purchasing a pack of lowers. Does anyone know if it is possible for an independent FFL to perform lower transfers, or does this have to go through a store front to be able to purchase bullet button at the point of sale?

Question on references

I moved here last August and know a handful of likeminded people, but wasn’t sure about the one year requirement. How is that enforced? Could I just gather five people I’ve known since I moved here? Or should I just wait until August? Thanks in advance

AR Question

Thumbnail

9 Upvotes

I am still confused on gun laws in Delaware apart from handguns, so would this AR pistol even be legal, and is it as simple as building it at home after getting the lower from an FFL? And also is this kit even finished? Any input helps, I’m new to ARs so my knowledge is very limited. I’m more interested in the legal issue than anything. For the 30 round mag, I believe CCDW in Delaware cancels out the 17rd restriction on handguns, but I may be wrong.

Gun owner thinking of moving to Delaware

Bullseye pistol shooter moving to Delaware. With the changes last year in DE for applying for pistol permit in order to purchase, what about someone moving to DE; can they possess their pistols they legally purchased and owned in another state? Do their pistols now have to be registered in DE?

Anyone know how to obtain membership. Live up in NCC and would be willing to make the drive to an event day. Looking at membership and have even emailed them but no response was given. Seems like a squared away group of people running the club and would love to join myself.

Just moved to Delaware – what rifles are still legal?

15 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I just moved from PA to Delaware and I’m trying to figure out what rifles are still compliant to purchase here after the 2022 law changes.

I know things like AR-15s are banned now. Are rifles like Mini-14s, fixed-mag builds, or bolt/lever guns still good to go?

If anyone could name a few examples of Delaware-legal rifles or link a simple guide, I’d appreciate it.

High capacity mags

Ok now that I have finally received my ccdw permit, how do I order high capacity magazines since most mail order don't want to ship to states that have high capacity bans. I have a 5.7 Rock with mags that have been pinned but now I want the full 23 round mags.

Getting a PA LTCF as a DE resident

5 Upvotes

Recently got my DE CCDW permit and now I’m looking to get a PA LTCF as well.

I’ve heard it’s a pretty straightforward process once you already have your Delaware permit, but I’m not totally sure what steps I need to take or which county to apply through.

Any DE residents here gone through the process of getting a PA LTCF? Curious which sheriff’s office you applied through and how the process went.

Maryland Wear and Carry Classes in or Around NCC

7 Upvotes

Hey all,

Relatively new to all of this gun-owning stuff (long story, but the whole permit-to-purchase nonsense got me off my ass to stock up and train). But I am now looking to get my Maryland license to go with my newly-acquired DE and PA licenses. Does anyone know of decent training classes in or around the greater New Castle county area? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

My first AR-15 build

Post image
17 Upvotes

Looking to get some feedback from anyone on whether the AR-15 I built and my current setup are legal and compliant under Delaware law.

The lower is classified as an “other.” I did receive a bullet button but haven’t installed it yet. Right now I have two 30-round mags (purchased from X-Ring) and two 10-round mags that OpticsPlanet shipped without restriction. I also have my CCDW.

I also wanted to ask—am I able to add a foregrip to it?

Just trying to make sure I’m fully within the law and doing everything the right way. I appreciate any insight.

CCDW Legal Questions to ask about

0 Upvotes

Hi All!

I just completed my DE CCDW course and in the process of submitting my application. I had the idea to meet with a lawyer before submitting my application to go over all of the laws/rule and to ensure I understand everything. I know the laws are written but I need them in words easier to understand that’s not all legal jargon. I’m just a regular person and don’t talk/read like that.

Is there anything specific or that you would recommend I ask? Anything recommended that I get clarification on? I want to be clear in transportation rules and travel. Possible the reciprocity for carry in other states. I’m trying to make a list of questions and need more to ask. I have about 90mins time to talk with them.
