Firearms Training Affidavit

The purpose of this Firearms Training Affidavit is to determine if the applicant is eligible to possess a firearm and participate in firearms training in accordance with the Federal Firearms Law 18 U.S.C. 922, the Gun Control Act of 1967 and the Omnibus Consolidated Appropriations Act of 1997. Amendments to the Gun Control Act of 1968 make it unlawful for any person convicted of a "misdemeanor crime of domestic violence" to ship, transport, possess, or receive firearms or ammunition. The amendments also make it unlawful for any person to sell or otherwise dispose of a firearm or ammunition to any person knowing, or having reasonable cause to believe that the recipient has been convicted of such a misdemeanor. The new prohibitions apply to all persons, including law enforcement officers. To be certified by the Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission, a recruit must demonstrate proficiency skills in criminal justice weapons. This proficiency must be demonstrated by each recruit during his/her basic training weapons course. The course requires the recruit to demonstrate proficiency in the use of a service handgun and shotgun. Under the Federal Gun Control Act, someone is prohibited from buying and possessing a firearm if (s)he

(CHECK ALL THAT APPLY, IF APPLICABLE)is either under direct indictment or has been convicted for a crime punishable by imprisonment for more than one year;is a fugitive from justice;is an unlawful user of or addicted to any controlled substance.has been adjudicated as mentally defective or been committed to a mental institution;was dishonorably discharged from the Armed Forces;has renounced United States citizenship;is subject to a court order restraining him/her from harassing, stalking, or threatening an intimate partner or a child;has been convicted of domestic violence.

In response, Florida Keys Community College must ask the following questions in order to comply with the requirements of the Omnibus Consolidated Appropriations Act of 1997. I understand that a person who answers "YES" to any of the questions is prohibited from purchasing and possessing a firearm. I also understand that the making of any false oral or written statement in response to the above questions is a crime punishable as a felony. I also understand that a person who answers YES" to any of the questions cannot be admitted to the Law Enforcement or Correctional Officer training programs because (s)he cannot possess a firearm which is a requirement of the program curriculum.

1. Are you under indictment or information in any court for a crime for which the judge could imprison you for more than one year? Information is a formal accusation of a crime made by a prosecuting attorney(i.e.; the State Attorney's Office, U.S. Attorney's Office).

No _____ Yes_____ If YES, explain: ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
