Restored rights... except for firearms.. I wonder why.
Probabnly a combination of political correcdtness and bias on the part of the judge.

Why didn't someone think of this before? Using lawyers to get around laws.
For a few thousand dollars in lawyer's fees, you, too, can enjoy your God-given rights.
At this point, I'll take it.

It must have been expensive. I’m glad this man persisted and set a precedence.
We now can use the “It’s Settled Law” argument.

A 6 in barrel?!! That is outrageous!
He should be limited to a 3.5 in barrel! /s

BTW just got my notice for Tx CHL renewal.
They have done away with recurring instruction, lowered the renewal cost to $75 and further reduced that to $35 if you are a Vet.
One hitch... you gotta to it all on line, filing with the Gov.
Oh well...They have had my finger prints for 32 years.
Names in the phone book.
You know where to find me.

I agree, 6 inch barrel is a waste on a handgun. Get a shotgun!

Well ...how was he "deemed incapacitated because of a stroke" in the first place? That's a very good question. I didn't see that in the article.

Well ...how was he “deemed incapacitated because of a stroke” in the first place?-———you’d need to read through that state’s laws and circle every “may” as in may require a physicians letter,may require a social workers letter,who can apply to become a court ordained guardian on and on.

Once the feral government takes something away from you, it is loathe to give it back.

I just think it’s funny the way they make the length of the barrel an issue.

How did the state know that he had suffered a stroke?

Longer sight radius= better long range accuracy.

On a pistol, the difference in velocity between a 2 inch barrel and a 6-inch can be substantial.
For many people who are far sighted, they can focus on the front sight of a revolver with a six inch barrel, but not that of a 3.5 inch barrel.
It happens a lot with older eyes.

A 6 in barrel?!! That is outrageous! He should be limited to a 3.5 in barrel! /sBut the 6" barrel will allow a competent shooter to reach out to as much as 100 yards to "touch someone".
