Title: For All The "Recreational" Marijuana Users
Post by: billt on November 18, 2016, 06:45:45 AM

They've changed the Federal 4473 Form. It's illegal under Federal Law regardless of where you live. So much for "legalized Marijuana". At least not if you want to own a firearm.

I knew you couldn't concealed carry if you smoked dope but didn't know you couldn't even buy a gun if you did. Fortunately all the many drugs I'm on are legal.

Frank, it doesn't matter if they are legal or not. Look at booze.
Technically,if I have normal blood pressure and thin blood I shouldn't be able to carry since I am under the influence of prescription drugs.

actually being an alcoholic  would dq you from owning a gun as you are addict to a controlled substance.

same with cigs, its just never enforced.

As long as you're not an unlawful user or addicted you're okay. My meds keep me alive but I'm not addicted to them.
