    California background check...

    hey guys, I was just wondering what types of things (if any) will get you denied on the background check. first off, I'm not a felon, never been arrested, no restraining orders... I am basically wondering if there are any other smaller reasons why you would be denied...

    Thanks

      "Fugitive from justice" can be a catch-all for many minor offenses. I know a guy that moved here from out-of-state and left an alcohol related offense and bench warrant unattended to back in his old state. He was denied because he was a "fugitive from justice".

        We've had a few denied pertaining to something with DMV.

        No idea on what though.

          That could be the same "fugitive from justice" cause. Probably un-paid fines or child support.

            hmm...that's pretty much what I was getting at. Like I said, I have never had any problems with the law, I have 4 CCW permits for 34 states, and have bought guns before...but never here in CA. I just moved here in january.

            So I was wondering if there was any other invisible reasons why i'd get denied.

            Librarian, thanks, I'll read up on that now.

              An outstanding traffic ticket {ignored} will get you denied.
              Then you have to start over. If your son borrowed your car
              and got a parking ticket ,and just blew it off. You get denied.

                A friend of mine was denied for an unpaid parking ticket.

                  that is such complete bullsh*t, i can't even begin to comment on that
                  BTW what the hell is this supposed to mean

                  there appears to be no provision for self-defense, wth?
                  according to this if i used aknife to defend myself in a home defense situation, i could be denied?

                      Wouldn't you need to be convicted of this first? If it's a clear-cut case of self-defense, you may not even be charged. If you are, you probably will be able to convince a jury to acquit.

                        The people on this forum look at this thru 1954 eyes. You are unaware of the danger. You MUST look at this thru 1935 German eyes to see the truth. I am well aware of this as MY family was. RESIST !!
