OK, but pardon my ignorance here. Why would someone get a permit without an intention of buying a firearm? If you get a permit, and you are later diagnosed with a mental illness, are you required by law to notify someone (law enforcement, atf, fbi)?

I dont have one, so genuinely curious with all of this.

I guess I was thinking she may have already had them.

This is why I suggested it would be necessary to get the police, etc involved. She can be conserved which would get the firearms out of her possession if she’s a danger. Permits are revoked in that situation.

Up until relatively recently one didn’t need a permit to purchase guns. There were some controls but you could have purchased a firearm at a tag sale.

Police have been involved twice already. So I know they are aware of her, and probably if she is in possession of a permit/weapon.

But your input is appreciated.
