Despite the tragic events that have occurred in the state of Nevada in recent years, the state has responded with strong gun laws. Nevada's stricter gun laws have been enacted in response to these tragic events. They have reduced the number of shootings as well as prevented the spread of gun violence. Below are some details about the state's gun laws. Here are some highlights:
Background checks for gun purchases
Nevada has just passed a new law which will take effect January 2, 2020. The new law may seem good, but it is not enforced. They cannot be enforced without entrapment. Private firearm sales will continue unchanged. If you have a valid concealed carrying permit, you can still buy guns in Nevada.
The proposal calls for licensed gun dealers and buyers to undergo background checks. The background information is taken from the federal government’s National Instant Criminal History Check System. These records are used to determine whether someone is a criminal, or if they pose a threat to others. A background check can reveal that someone has been involved in violent crime and the dealer may charge the buyer a fee. A gun buyer who makes a mistake with their purchase will be charged with a gross offense for the first offense, and a category C felony for each subsequent offense. It is not clear how this bill will impact the state's revenues.
Penalties when a gun is kept in a federal building
Although gun laws vary from one state to the next, the most common sentence is one year in prison. A maximum sentence of five-years imprisonment can be imposed for a felony conviction. For possessing a gun inside a federal facility, Nevada's penalties are as follows:
If you are a felon, possessing a gun in a federal facility is a felony. A sentence could include a one- to six-year sentence in prison, a $5,000 monetary fine or both. Depending on the circumstances, you may also be incarcerated for several years. The good news is you can hire an lawyer to fight the charges against your. The charges you face will determine which attorney you should hire.
Marijuana users who break restraining orders could face severe penalties
Whatever your motives may be, Nevada gun control laws will not apply to you if a restraining orders has been issued against you. To the federal government, marijuana is a Schedule I substance. Violations are considered a felony. Nevada's restraining orders can lead to jail sentences of up to one year. Pot users are also subject to severe penalties.
A Class C felony is committed if you violate a restraint order. Penalties for violating this order can include imprisonment for two to five years, a fine of $2,000, and other penalties. The restraining order also prohibits you from possessing a firearm. The penalties for violating a restraining order are harsher, so you should consider the consequences before breaking the law.
