I already have an FID and have purchased a handgun before. I am now looking to purchase another handgun and have a question regarding the fingerprinting.

 

Do I have to be fingerprinted again if I've already gone through the FID/handgun process successfully? Some Googling says "no" but I want to check with everyone's experience here.

No. Unless you have not purchased a gun (any, long or pistol) within the past two years. At that point, the Police department has the option of making you go through the print process again, even though it is not required.

agree with Cold, but many depts will be nice about it and not require reprinting. They didnt require me to get printed again and it was quite some time (15 years I think) between pistol purchases.

Thanks for the help guys!!

I'm filling out my forms for an additional pistol permit and I'm wondering if I need to put down 2 references again. I already have my FID card.

I had to

I used the same two references that I used for my FID and they were not contacted again.
