[QUOTE="OKNewshawk, post: 2732484, member: 6592"] While some states may allow firearms possession with a restraining order in effect, Federal law may prohibit it. I know, because I went through a two and a half year hell because of misreporting about a restraining order in New Jersey dating from 1989. It was vacated in 1992 but the local LEO that issued the initial "emergency" TRO did not have their files updated. They gave the FBI the wrong info and it wasn't until I had to review my divorce papers for another matter that I learned that the RO had been vacated by the judge that granted the divorce. Now, you may not get into trouble by selling a gun to that person but if they have any open ROs they may be in violation of Federal law. If they are, even owning ammunition is a violation. Here is a PDF from the BATF with the explanation: [url]https://www.atf.gov/files/publications/download/i/atf-i-3310-2.pdf[/url] [/QUOTE]
