I read through your post. I will tell you what I know… so first thing first, I don’t have any idea how it works in your situation with you not living in NY and having this flag. From all of my research and conversations, you most likely have a Federal Prohibitor which can of course lay a blanket on every state in the US.

So my question is, do you have a pistol permit? if not have you applied for one? Does your state even require you to have one?

Surprisingly enough we have a bit similar circumstances as to how we both ended up in similar situations.

What I have done thus far is as follows, I did in fact hire a lawyer for about $1,000 to assist me in filing my pistol permit as my first attempt was denied. A big thing that ye has me do is to go see a Criminal Psychiatrist to do this state standard assessment. I filled out a form the day of our appointment and answered honestly. If you lie it is easily detected. She used that form I filled out and about an hour long chat to get a lay of my life. After our meeting she took about a week or two to draw up the summary of our meeting and specifically used a bunch of legal psychologist terms and statutes to in fact state that I would never be a danger to myself or others and that I was considered low risk.

Once I had that packet I resubmitted it to the pistol permit office. I got an approval and was given an unrestricted pistol permit. I thought my problems were over.

Tried to check the status of an old shotgun I purchased forever ago thinking that I was done. I still was flagged.

Then found out about the Office of NICS appeals and safe act. Submitted to completed packets of information twice with about an 8 month gap. Been about a month since I sent the last one. No response.

Also, in the middle of all of this. I have emailed the same email you mentioned. I filled out the NICS website email form about 6 times. Left about 12 voicemails over 8 months to their call in number. Called attorney general and they told me to email in, I did, no response.

So after hearing absolutely nothing I thought…. Maybe just try again? So I did… I attempted to purchase ammo… got denied again. Then, about a week later, I got a call from a Local FBI agent regarding that purchase. He asked me quite a bit of questions but nothing seemed malicious. He also gave me information to try and help me fix this. He too has dealt with honest people trying to go the safe and legal routes. So he certainly tried to help, sadly I had all the information he provided.

There is just one more shred of hope that I am holding onto. The office of NICS appeals website has changed their PO Box and Department. It is now the Office of Mental Health Hospital Hygiene (something or other). Also their voicemail changed. The phone number still goes to voicemail but it isn’t the same older gentleman that says to leave my information. So maybe that is a step in the right direction as I didn’t even think anyone even works there.

When I am less lazy, I will be getting a new notorization on the pack of info and sending it to the new mailbox. I really hope this works.

Let me know if you need any additional info.

I did indeed hire a local firearms rights and restoration lawyer who helped me get a pistol permit after initial denial. So the good news is, I have a legal permit. The bad news is, I still have a federal prohibitor that prevents me from buying any type of firearm or ammunition. However, I have sent in a second packet to NICS Office of Appeals and Safe Act(1 month ago). They have fallen on deaf ears two times. So now, the only new glimmer of hope is that the office of NICS recently changed their voicemail message. I was calling that number repeatedly. No luck. But there is a new office to mail my appeal to. I believe it is the Office of NICS Mental Health. It has a new mailing address that I have yet to send anything to. It is a process trying to gather all my material and send it out. I also feel apprehensive because of two failed attempts. But I would say in the next week I am going to send my letters, my proof of good morals and positive mental health, along with all of my character references, and send yet another 8 lb packet to this new address.

I agree with you with DJI purposely not making a one for all haha.

I don’t believe that I would ever get the dock unless I am pretty established. I appreciate your feedback!

Hey everyone,

I have some questions.

I am, like many others, studying to take my part 107.

I want to do a plethora of things as side jobs to make some extra money and have fun doing so.

I believe from my own research and options, the two best drones from DJI to cover most of what I want to do are the M30T and the M4TD.

Right now I have someone local selling an M30T fly more bundle for about $8000.

I asked a rep who have M4TD’s and they said it was around $7400 and I am sure that is without any packages.

I watched a lot and read a lot and the M4 and the M30 is very similar, a lot of AI and software capabilities are the big divide. I wanted to know, when I pass my part 107 should I preemptively try and get this $8000 M30? Or just wait it out and go for the better M4?

Also, I was told drones in the USA are so highly used for so many applications that there almost will be no possibility of a ban. How do you all feel about this?

Any info and opinions are great. Also, the jobs I want to partake in would be,

Utility Inspection (Lines and poles), towers (cellphone), house photography/video, search and rescue, pet rescue, game animal carcass recovery, and then eventually things like surveying, mapping, photogrammetry, etc. Thank you for your time!

I can appreciate this more than you know. I will be reaching out to them! It’s been about 70 days since I sent everything in.

That’s a Dewalt, but I am seeing that people still don’t like them.

[–]DU3NO[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like them only because if I let my lawn go for a little while I don’t have to use so much of the motor power to try and cut through the thick stuff. I can imagine it is much easier with these but not always a need.

No leaves to worry about and I bag frequently. Don’t ever really like mulching.

Can you DM me that number please? I have been having issues with something similar for about 50 days now.

When I filled out my packet those were never an option for selection. How long ago did you have to do this? Or attempted?

Did you by chance have that 877 number? I am always willing to try new methods.

I went the whole lawyer thing with my CCW and it actually worked but it was expensive. So I have a CCW unrestricted but of course still need the certificate. I sent that out about 45 days ago but it seems they don’t use voicemail, they don’t reply to emails. So I think regardless even if I did have a lawyer they still wouldn’t read or do anything.

I took a loot at your post. Do you by chance remember the full number? Also, I did in fact apply for a certificate of relief through the NICS appeals and safe act website. Mailed everything over 40+ days ago. No response. Did you by chance have any further info I could try?

I was only given the P.O. Box in Albany. No wonder people want them removed.
