Huh; do you have a citation for this? I used to bring scientists from other countries to the shooting range for the cultural experience, and almost brought a pal from Europe hunting a year or two ago (on my license). Never realized I might have been putting them in legal jeopardy.
- Rebelgecko 7y agoThe actual law is here Title 18, Section 922, g(5)(B): https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/922 https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/922 I would guess that it's not enforced very often. If your friend was visiting from a European country that didn't require a visa to visit the US (most of them) you'd be in the clear.
