Any FFL holders in Iowa who could help me?

I’m looking to buy an RPK from J&G guns online, and so far no place in town that HAS an FFL (scheels, pawn shops) will do business with me on this, since the only place that will, only does it for deer rifles or shotguns. Now i’ve had an SKS before, and have behaved responsibly for many years with firearms, and in fact am currently in paperwork with the BATFE to get a Type 50 explosives manufacturer license (legal hobbyist) and have a spotless criminal record (including driving!) and even coach an after-school program, so between being a good-intentioned guy and having the BATFE already allowed to conduct random visits for my explosives license, i think i can assure you pretty well that you’d be safe selling me a "scary" gun like an RPK. No criminal record of anyone in my household either.

So do you think i could find somebody in Iowa with an FFL who actually WOULD let me pay them a good fee to let me purchase through them, cash up front? How much should i expect to pay them?
Oh and i put this in hunting because i plan on using this for backyard hunting (i live in rural iowa where i have a safe area of privately owned woods to shoot in) as well as the hunting guys always seeming to have better gun answers. You can contact me through email from my profile page if you want.

Why is it that people think Glock is a police weapon?

Every time I hear someone talking about guns, who does not have a good working knowledge of guns, they talk about the "Glock" as being a Law Enforcement only weapon. Glock is a manufacturer of an inexpensive hand gun. There are no external safeties on a Glock, and sales are common place to individuals. It is not a police only weapon, but rather a simple to use everyday firearm. It seems to me that television, movies, and the media (news) have caused this mis-information to spread. That’s my opinion.

What do you think?
I am not disputing a lot of departments use Glock. I know of the working mechanisms inside the Glock. I am not bad-mouthing the Glock, I own one. I am refering to the number of posts on YA where people call Glocks "Police Issue" when in reality they can be bought at any gun shop. Sorry for any confusion in the question.

FFL Procedure question?

I’d like to order an AR-15 from Spikes Tactical. It’d be my first rifle and first (maybe second) firearm purchase. I’m just not sure what exactly to do as far as the FFL. They already have one in my city on file but I’ve never personally visited the store. The one I went to get my license to purchase handguns was a different store entirely. Basically I’m looking for help on if I should just order it since they have the FFL holder’s info on file and when it gets to the my local FFL holder (the gun shop) I’ll just get a call to go pick it up or should I let the gun shop know ahead of time that I want to order from X company ahead of time and then put the order in? Basically I’m looking for the answer to this question….Does the FFL holder have to know that they’re going to receive an online order before said order is delivered to them? I’m not really new to guns just new to buying guns. I just turned old enough to purchase last month. Thanks.

How much of a hassle would it be to get a pistol as my first gun?

I love all guns,but I really feel more at home with pistols.I’ll be 18 in april,so I figure if I got a rifle going to the range wouldn’t be much trouble.Would I need someone who is 21 with me everytime I shot the pistol at the range?am I even allowed to transport the pistol without someone who is 21 and has a gun license?

Hunting Rifles, Need Answers?

ok i am new to hunting and the rifles are hard to choose from. I am going to be hunting basically anything that moves. Deer to squirrels it doesnt matter. I want a gun that is reliable, durable and around no more than 450. Ive looked at alot of guns and the one that has caught my eye is the mossberg 4×4 30-06. Ive heard the 7mm magnum, and atr 100 are good too. What im trying to ask is what gun would be best for a beginning hunter and still powerful to take out big game. These 3 are the only ones ive really thought about, but any more suggestions would be great. Which one do you think is best

Question for those who think more restrictive gun laws will reduce gun crime….?

In Vermont and Alaska any adult can legally carry a loaded gun any time either concealed or openly.

In Utah students (age 18+) can openly carry firearms on college campuses and licensed concealed permit holders can legally conceal loaded weapons on campus.

Wouldn’t you expect there to be lots of people being killed in that kind of a "wild west" environment? Wouldn’t you expect lots of people to shoot each other over simple misunderstandings?

Isn’t that what the anti-gun people always envision?

Based on the arguments used by anti-gun people, wouldn’t you expect lots of shootings and homicides in Utah, Vermont, and Alaska?
Have you noticed that just because the "government passes a law", criminals don’t run out and try to obey it?

Guns were banned for everyone that wasn’t law enforcement in DC for years. They had more shootings per capita than any other city.

Just because politicians dream it up, doesn’t mean it happens.
