Was the arrest when your were 18yrs and over or a juvenile. I do have a class c misdemeanor on my record when I was a juvenile about 12 years ago at age 13. I wonder if that will deny my license. :banghead:

You won't have a problem. My arrests were all juvenile, all felony and included an arrest for family violence. You may get a letter asking for court records of disposition if you didn't disclose it, but you won't be denied.

I had a second degree federal felony underage from 01, and they never questioned it. If they won't question that childhood stupidity on me, they shouldn't ask on you. Hope that helps

Wow guys ,thanks! Y'all gave me some relief. Well the only thing I'm waiting on is my background check to clear. Been at that step waiting since July 6, I did buy a gun the other day and it took only 5 minutes to approve once I filled out the atf paperwork so it should be good lol. I am active duty military too and do have a security clearance . hopefully that might expedite the process. :drool: :txflag:

Agree and still pending the same here.

As others mentioned I did purchase a gun a month prior to the application so unless they eff up I should be good to go. Right?

Would I been able to purchase a gun otherwise? Doesn't make sense that I could have a gun but not a license, right?

Agreed, and same here... I bought one last week with no issues. When I asked about that very thing, I was told:

"If you passed a NICS check, I can't imagine DPS would find something in TCIC that wouldn't be in NICS."
