Find out if Chief will sign off on Class III?

Post by pbwalker »

Dumb question, but would it be in poor taste to contact my local PD Chief and ask him if he will sign off on Class III toys? Is there a proper protocol for something like this?

if your in harris,galveston,brazoria county forget it. I had sean cody in houston do a trust for me. Much easier and bypasses the whole signature/pictures/fingerprint requirements every time you want to buy somthing.

The CLEO signature is supposed to be a thing of the past, if not now soon. But personally I'd go the trust route.

i dont think they approved they yet did they? also you would need finger prints and pictures which is annoying too.

If you are using a local to you Class III dealer they may be able to help you. When I bought mine many moons ago the dealer knew the local chief and that he was sign off friendly, he gave the chief a heads-up that I would be calling, it was a smooth deal. :tiphat:

I'm not sure of the status of the sign off requirement going away but that will be great!! :hurry:

I used Nick Tilotta at Western Firearms Co. (http://www.westernfirearms.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;).
