Has anyone else heard of the ordinance that went in to effect a couple months back? If you sell a gun to a gun store or pawn shop, the shop has to take a copy of your ID and submit it and the gun information to the city. The best part is they are not informing people that this is happening. I sold a gun to a store here in town a couple weeks back. Confirmed with them today that the city collected my information. I would have just kept the gun had they told me what was going on. I had taken it in for gunsmith work and they really wanted it so I let them buy it. I understand the reasoning but do not feel that any benefit will outweigh the violation of citizens rights. This is creating a de facto registry of College Station gun owners. I can see multiple ways this could be abused. I don't know the law but this sure seems like it should be against some state or federal law.
Ive tried to find out more info on the ordinance but not finding anything online. An email has been sent to a few people with the city and Im waiting to hear back. Anybody else know more on this?
