[QUOTE="henschman, post: 1961319, member: 4235"] Well, as I found out early on in my legal career, there is absolutely nothing that states that the law has to make sense... and in fact it rarely does. :) Being that Oklahoma has full reciprocity, the easiest way to get a permit for him would be to get a Maine non-resident permit. They are a lot cheaper than OK's (only $60), and you can satisfy their "training" requirement by taking an online gun safety course that takes all of 20 minutes. There is no fingerprint requirement or anything. You just need a passport-style photo like you can get at Wallgreen's. You can send everything by mail, and they are a lot quicker at issuing the license than OK is too. The only downsides are that it isn't good in as many other states, and it doesn't count for compliance with the Federal Gun Free School Zones Act. But at least in Oklahoma it would put GC on equal legal footing with his wife! [/QUOTE]
