A firearm is a device which projects either single or multiple projectiles at high velocity through a controlled explosion. The firing is achieved by the gases produced through rapid, confined burning of a propellant. This process of rapid burning is technically known as deflagration. In older firearms, this propellant was typically black powder, but modern firearms use smokeless powder, cordite, or other propellants. Most modern firearms (with the notable exception of smoothbore shotguns) have rifled barrels to impart spin to the projectile for improved flight stability.

Can Texas police officers sell used firearms to the public ?
Q. My brother was recently a victim of a shooting--the firearm used in the crime used to belong to a police dept near by. I was told officers are free to resell there firearms-which didn't make sense.

A. Some departments allow you to purchase your old weapon when they switch to newer ones. The department has no control over what the officer does with it after it is sold to the officer. He could resell it, so your scenario could happen.

Can a California resident purchase firearms in Arizona or Nevada?
Q. And how do I know which firearms are legal and transferable and which are not?
Asked by B.N. - Tue Dec 11 17:17:12 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. You may not just go buy a handgun outside your state of residence and bring it back. You can buy one, have it sent to a Federal Firearms License (FFL) holder (i.e., a gunshop owner), who will then mail it to another FFL holder in YOUR state, who will then give it to you. Both FFL holders will charge you for their time.
