Process for buying a gun in a store:
1. Enter store
2. Select the firearm you like
3. Full out 4473 for the background check
4. If approved, pay for the firearm, take possession of the firearm, exit store.
That's in most of the states. Some states have much more restrictive processes for exercising your rights, with many more hurdles and hoops to jump through
That's for US CItizen or legal permanent resident.
@@ghimmy47 which is exactly what he was asking about. "Is it that easy to get a gun?"
I paid the 75 bucks, all i do is put my thumb on the reader and bing bang boom, i got a new stick
@@testickles8834 which varries by state. Some states, if you have a valid concealed carry, you just present it, and away you go
It's a little more complicated than that, you left out a few essential steps...
5. Purchase ammunition, spare magazines, bipods, slings, scopes, holsters, and any other things you now need.
6. Find a way to hide/explain your purchase to your significant other. Note that in much of the country, with certain women, you run the risk that they will assume the firearm is a gift and keep it themselves.(I lost a single action revolver that way.)
7. clean and inspect the firearm.
8. Go to the range and spend a small fortune on ammo breaking the new gun in.
9 Clean the gun again.
10. Start looking for what gun you want to buy next.
When he said how great capitalism is, it hit hard. A lot of people in the U.S hate on capitalism but it has really changed so many peoples lives. This really gives me a better appreciation of America. So many people have been able to go from living a life of starvation or oppression to living a better life. Even people who already live here can do even better than the generation before them. You don't have to be what your parents were. It's the beauty of America. I really believe this is one of the greatest countries in the world. Anyone who has immigrated here has a wonderful appreciation of this country. It's sad some people don't love this country as much as them.
We have unlimited potential simply due to the fact that we are Americans. I'm not a violent person but I get so angered by my fellow countrymen trashing this wonderful experiment that I want to punch someone. I feel the same reaction towards those that are too lazy to take advantage of the opportunities that our country provides. I pulled myself out of the barrio through hard work, earning a scholarship, taking advantage of educational grants, and completing a degree. More hard work got me into medical school and an income bracket that allows me to live a comfortable life. Not everyone can become a doctor, but every US citizen has the opportunity to improve their station in life. Sadly, fewer and fewer are grabbing those opportunities, instead wanting the govt to provide the bare necessities to simply exist. Unless we change it, that mindset will kill our country.
@@digitalmdrealmd9124 You're absolutely right. I believe there is so much opportunity for so many people but people aren't willing to take the risk anymore. I knew someone a few years ago who had the opportunity to go to college to get a Batchelor's degree on a scholarship. He chose to work for minimum wage instead. He could have worked part-time and done college because he was still living with his family and they were doing fine with him already doing part-time work. He is very smart and probably would have done great in college. So many people don't have the opportunity to go to college but want to. I think it's sad that some people don't. It's a chance for a better future. I don't understand why someone wouldn't want to get a degree.
When you’ve lived under Communism you know how it ruins everything. Makes it easier to appreciate an economic philosophy that creates prosperity.
most are to dumb to realize their problem is with consumerism not capitalism
@@digitalmdrealmd9124 Assuming what you're saying is true, and you are in fact in (or were in) medical school, (implied intelligence) I'm surprised you still think everyone in our system has the ABILITY to improve their situation. Sure, opportunity is there, but MANY people don't have the ability to seize it.
So many visitors to the U.S. are interested in shooting guns. We had three Japanese men come to dinner at our home, they were co workers of my husband. None of them spoke english, but they did communicate they wanted to shoot guns. My husband took them to our back property with our sons and let them all shoot different guns. He said they liked the hand gun much more than the long guns. They wanted pictures of themselves shooting to take home. It seemed so strange to see the excitement they felt about doing something we take for granted and I felt very grateful to live in a free country.
That’s awesome,your husband gave them an experience they will never forget.these videos are truly eye opening.I’ve been shooting guns since I was a young child.just seeing the way people react in these videos is mind blowing to me.I’m happy for them because I love guns and love seeing people enjoy them.at the same time,I feel bad for them because they can’t own guns or have to jump through a bunch of hoops to own a .22lr or a bolt action hunting rifle
Unless you want control over your own body and your privacy. If you are a woman that is....
@@RaggedyAndi1Except that it isn't your body, really.
What's interesting is the fact that he's sooo blown away by things Americans take for granted.
And yeah I'm pretty sure all bass pro shops have kids sections. Not just fishing either, kids bows, crossbows and bb guns. they even carry actual guns for kids.
And it’s sad that so many want to change what this country is! And this Cuban even said “how great capitalism is”
Every person I have talked to or know well that has immigrated from another country. They all say the same thing, they are greatful to be here. Sadly some people who have lived here for generations do not feel the same way. Could be the lack of experience in other countries, or a heart full of hate. There is a reason why we love our country, Freedom, Family, and the pursuit of happiness.
College kids indoctrinated with Marxism.
That's because we've become wimps
They've listened to hate mongering propaganda for years. They say they love their country, but they're willing to sell it out. They say God is their savior, but hate anyone crossing the border into America. They basically hate everything and everyone with dark skin. They're ignorant hypocrites.
I love videos like these because of that! I love my country so I don't often think "Man, I bet it's better in this or that country" but even when I do, nearly every other country (or maybe even every country, but I don't know enough about every single other country to say 😂) lacks something from here that I love and couldn't or wouldn't want to live without. Whether that's items, freedoms, climate or food it's always something.
Strongly disagree. I know a lot about other countries my hubby is from India, I’m not a hateful person either. My family goes back to early 1600 in this country both sides. I don’t like these people mostly the women. She is a first generation immigrant and he is fresh off the boat. At the end of this video she tries to pull at your heart talking about lots of people like that man and how we should be loving and open our borders ect. She also talks about her parent’s great sacrifices to move here when she was small. Never anything about how thankful she is for all the people that sacrificed their lives ect. You’re a mopey push over. That man can cry about food his country ect. He is a grown able body man that can stand up and fight for all those kids there, he can grow food help fix and build his country. I know many immigrants that don’t give a beep about America or Americans at all in this country, they scream this is an Indian home or a Muslim home, they will not fight for this country. They call whites pig butts. How disgusting Americans are how we smell cuz pork ect. They don’t care about America they are not grateful, they are here just to suck it dry. These are millionaire immigrants too. They came with nothing worked hard, point and laugh at your poor …beep… most millionaires in America are not American. Instead he is going to make sad videos. Hubby wants to talk got to go. You are wrong. You only know what they say to your face not behind your back. The north Asian women marry Americans for $$$$… passport bros. You have already lost your country as you sit and cry for these people. America didn’t become free by being a coward. We paid a price our blood.
My dad started teaching me how to handle and shoot guns when I was 5. Over the years he also hired instructors to teach us self defense and hunting skills when armed. Those are skills I'm very grateful for. Very important skills.
That's wonderful. Your dad was awesome. I wish all were like that. I still remember firing a .22 rifle the first time. I don't remember how old I was but I was very young. My dad had to support the barrel because I had to use both hands to pull the trigger. He had taught me how to aim and I hit the target, way out at the edge. But, my dad was pleased that I hit it at all, instead of a clean miss. Great memories!!
I wish I had a dad like that.
You're blessed
In Cuba, it’s illegal to own a boat unless you’re in the government. They know people will leave Cuba for Florida.
After living in Miami and meeting many Cubanos...my theory is that if Cuba opened the borders only a percentage of Cubans would leave..they love their country and culture... but Americans would arrive en mass and business would boom, Cubans would prosper but they might end up living in a Disney-like world.
Heartbreaking for the Cuban people.
@@milliway2010 Right. Because subservience to white tourists is paradise. Most Cubans would stay because "love thy neighbor" is in their religious teachings. and they listened. the ones who flee to America are the greedy, trash ones. Look at their politics once they get here. Tells you all you need to know about their character and why it couldn't function in a society that tells them they're no more important than their neighbor.
Commonsense boat control...for their own good of course. Mm-hm.
Cuba truly is a dystopian nightmare, however, it could be worse. It could be North Korea, which is worse than Cuba by the 10th power. Johnny Morris started Bass Pro shops and owns them he lives in the state of Missouri where he has one of the best Outdoor World Pro Shops in Springfield Missouri. I live in Missouri and I have been there and it is a lot bigger than the one on your video with more stuff. I am a relative of Johnny Morris, although he doesn’t know it. I live about two hours from his Springfield store. I am myself someone who has always been a hunter and fisherman, it seems to run in the family, but I have a hard time doing that anymore at my age and my physical problems now, but my heart has always been in the wilderness life close to nature. I guess if I was young again, I would probably head off into the mountains like Jeremiah Johnson or be an adventurer.
This guy makes me cry. And makes me.realize how lucky we are. I never realized how little Cubans have
All the gen z's have absolutely no clue how good we have it in the USA.
I am 43 years old.. born in America.. lived here my whole life. That being said.. . Until UA-cam came around.. and people like you (From other Countries) doing videos like this about America... I never really realized just how different it is here compared to everywhere else! Honestly.. Being American.. Never really realized How Amazing America is compared to everywhere else!! It's videos like yours and his.. that make me feel more lucky and blessed!! Like your reaction to the Grand Canyon for example.. I only live 2 hours away from that.. it's normal and old news for me! lol.. But not you! You make mile and laugh. and make me appreciate what I have and the things I get to look at every day! I really do enjoy your vids and others just like it! keep it up! Hope you get your chance to come here soon!! :)
6:17 it depends on the state. There are different types of fishing licenses, fresh water, salt water, shore fishing, and boat fishing, depending on the state can be all separate. I.e. California, if you are fishing off pears and petties, you don't need a licenses, but on shore and a boat you need to get a fishing license. Florida is similar, but there are some different regulations because there's brackish water with both salt water and fresh water fish. There are also seasons to which type of fish you are able to catch and keep as well as size requirements and count limits. If you're getting an out of state license be sure to read the literature of the regulations when you get your license. They can change year to year as well.
4:12 my husband's family is from Cuba. To understand what communism does, you have to see it, but because of the crushing control of communism, they don't let you. There is no private industry, only government control, so stores like this do not exist and cannot exist in a communist regime. In the grocery stores there is only 1 brand of rice, and a limit to how much you are allowed to buy. A store like this is a direct threat to a communist regime because it is a physical representation of how limited an "all powerful " government is.
Lol same. And I'm also 1.5 hours from grand canyon. Makes me feel lucky to be American
And that is kind of the problem. All these people who are screaming about things so loudly here (for example Palestine) think that every place is just like the US and they would be treated the same way. Sadly, if most of those people went elsewhere, they would find out very quickly they would be beaten or even killed for things that are mostly accepted here. And I think a lot of those people need to get out of the country and come face to face with reality a bit and they might start to appreciate what they really have here and stop trying to destroy everything.
@@REALfish1552 Well said!!!!!!
as a certified firearm salesman in Oklahoma depending on your age, say your 18-20 you will get delayed for about a week or two. but if you are 21 and older you can walk into the store do what's called a 4473 and we do the background check and as long as everything comes back good then you can walk out with your gun the same day. It usually takes around 30 min to go everything but the background check usually comes back instantly.
Shooting a real gun is absolutely nothing like video games.
Enjoy it. It will be oddly anti-climactic, because a well-run shooting range is so well controlled, you quickly realize you are in no danger. They will probably have you start with a 9mm pistol. That's a pretty traditional police firearm and widely used for self-defense purposes.
Yeah it’s way better in real life
It's strange that most people, unless they were in the military, from foreign countries have never shot, must less seen or handled a gun in person.
Uhh.. well.. yeah? They're video games.. not real life. Lol
You will quickly find that the guns in video games are not in any way connected to the real world.
Start with a rifle in 22LR, the most common gun in the US. There will be little if any recoil. Then go to an AR-15, this is also an 22, but it is somewhat more powerful. Mind you, the video games tell you that this is the ultimate weapon, but that is false. Then, if the range will support it, fire an AR-10 or a FAL in 308. Then you will know what a full power military rifle is like to shoot.
For handguns, again start out with a 22LR in a pistol. A Colt or Ruger would be a good choice. Then go to the 9x19 (mind you, there are close to 100 9mm pistol cartridges) in a full size gun, say a Glock. Follow that up with a real gun, that being a 1911A1 in 45 ACP.
The final step of course would be to go to a shotgun in 12 gauge. Start with the light loadings and finish up with a 3 inch buckshot load.
At that point you will then have some concept of guns.
I am a 60ish woman who has purchased two handguns in the last 3 years. You must fill out paperwork and a background check is done. Takes about 20-30 minutes.
It varies a lot by state
In Idaho you get your guns same day in cali they got that stupid 2 weeks to decide its not a good idea to kill all your coworkers 🙄😮💨
Very different in IL.
Or 10 days here in WA state. But my previous gun purchases were indeed about 15-20 mins waiting for background check.
It depends on the state, different laws in different state. In my state background check are only required if buying from store. No waiting period.Also in my state almost 70% of the population owns firearms.Those are registered, not private sale.
In the US if you want to fish in freshwater lakes rivers etc. you have to purchase a freshwater fishing license. If you're going into the ocean and want to fish scallop etc. you have to purchase a saltwater fishing license. You can get them pretty much any store close to the water or online and you can purchase a license for the day or you can pay just a little bit more and get a license for the year.
Unless it's on private property then no license needed. At least in Missouri.
Brought tears when listening to the story on the boat. It does make one thankful for being here.
For fishing/hunting in the USA each year you have to pay for a license to do so it's price and availability(even on what you can or can't fish/hunt)/season will differ from state to state. The last time I got my fishing license here it was around $45 for the whole season. If you plan to eat what you catch and go often, it's VERY worth it.
The reason there is a need for the license and fees are to help keep the fish and game healthy and well stocked so people can continue to enjoy it in the future.
I’m a woman who likes to shoot. I sometimes use Bass Pro (and other gun stores and shooting ranges) to “try before I buy” (in terms of features, fit, feel, etc.), especially when I’m buying online.
I worked a gun store, paper work, a quick (10minute) background check, and your license/ID, and you have a pretty good chance of walking out with your gun that day. Sometimes a background check would be delayed (so they would have to come back 3day-1week later) or denied.
Don't the feds have 5 business days to respond or then the store can give you your gun? I suppose that's a week when you think about it.
@@kylejohnson1308 Depends on the state. When I lived in Illinois you had to get approved for a PERC card to handle or buy any gun. Then a 5 day period for shotguns and bolt actions and such. 2+ weeks for handguns and semiautomatic rifles. In Minnesota, I can walk in and pass a quick background check for shotguns and bolt actions etc but still have to wait a few days to a couple weeks for handguns and semiautomatic, as well as have to had previously filled out an application to buy them.
@kylejohnson1308 The feds have 3 business days. After that, in my state, the sale can go forward even if the check hasn't completed. It's at the discretion of the FFL to complete the transfer.
@@shortguy45acp12 The first time it happened to me where they didn't respond was at a gun store and he said the 5 day thing. The 2nd time it was at academy sports and luckily I was able to convince the guy that after 5 days I could take it home.
I moved to the states in the early 90's from Canada. Shopping for a used washing machine took me to a pawn shop that sold lots of guns. Salesman was just handing me guns to play with. I asked him what I needed to buy a long gun. He said "a valid driver's lisence, and a fist full of dollars". I went back a week later and bought my first gun. A mauser k98 bolt action .308 for about $150. It's now decades later and I have a safe full of guns, and a concealed carry license.
I also shot for a few years in uspsa handun shooting competitions. Very fun. Look it up.
Twenty years ago, I worked as a painter at our local Bass Pro Shops as it was being constructed. A group of carpenters visited the woods in the vicinity to harvest large, downed trees/logs. These were brought back to the job site, sawed lengthwise in two, the inner wood was hollowed-out to fit around the steel support columns in the store, then coated with a flame-retardant varnish ( the one and only time I "painted" trees). I especially recall the architect in charge complaining that the painters were actually doing "too good" of a job instead of making things look old and worn. I explained to him that our training has always been centered around making things "look good" and he would just have to be patient and keep driving home the point.
1) Yes we Americans know how to do shop setups and displays.
2) You need a fishing and hunting permit to do either or both activities. Special areas are ok to fish as long as you know it's legal.
3) ...it's the story of that one teacher I was talking about. His parents risked a lot to leave Cuba illegally just to head to Florida then into Utah.
And the difference between Cuba and Utah is mind blowing! I can't even imagine what they felt. This country is almost too much to handle for citizens from Cuba.
fishing permits are more like a tax than anything else.
It depends on the state for requirements regarding hunting and fishing. In my state until the past 5 years you needed nothing for saltwater but they recently rolled out a saltwater license that they don't charge for. Hunting nuisance/pest animals is allowed without a permit.
In my state if you fish with live bait no permit or license needed
We have a small bass pro about an hour 30 minutes from my house. We have gun shops,pawnshops, even Walmart had a little bit of guns. You can order on line and have it sent to Walmart or any other gun shop that charges a fee to do your back ground check so you can take possession of your gun.
Fishing supplies and stuff. You can get from sports academy, pawn shops, Walmart, fish camps, marinas and so forth 😊
Cool thing about the fish tank, it is supposed to have examples of all the fish from the local area's lakes and rivers. Many fish and reptiles are not found in all places in the country.
In our area it's Cabela's. I remember a few years ago, the store put out a call to local fisherman to brings live caught fish to put in their aquarium. The fish they hade were aging out and getting too big for the tank.
In America, you have to have a fishing license for public fishing areas. You don't for your own private fishing holes. Like for ponds on your own property. But for the ocean, i don't think a permit of any kind is required. I could be wrong, but I don't know whose jurisduction that would be.
As an American citizen in Arizona (where I think this is filmed), you fill out a form for the background check. 5 minutes later you pass and walk out with your gun.
Here in California a similar process happens, except you have to wait 10 days to come back to pick up your gun.
I lived in Miami when the first Cubans fled Castro. It was crazy. I left Miami in 88. It got way too crowded.
I'm from here in the US, and had an awesome much older brother that got me started me on hunting and fishing pretty early. Growing up around guns, I've been comfortable around them all my life and they're pretty much a hobby.
I use them for hunting, recreational shooting, self-defense at and away from home, etc. While not all states require a permit to carry concealed, my state does. Needless to say, I have said permit and carry almost every time I leave the house. It's kind of like buckling your seatbelt, as it's something you hope to never have to rely on but will be glad you have it if needed.
I always have to keep that in mind when I see people from other parts of the world where they're heavily restricted, and understand their surprise or outright fear of them. Something I can't relate to but have to make an effort to understand.
You can buy a firearm here if you are a legal resident, even if you're not a citizen. My ex-wife was a legal resident from Canada, but never wanted to apply for citizenship and was able to buy her handgun.
If you meet that criteria, you fill out a federal form 4473 (something you do NOT lie on). On that form you have to answer a lot of questions regarding drug use, legal status, your criminal record, if the gun is for you and not someone else, etc.
It varies from state to state, but at the very least they'll then run a background check on you. You cannot take possession of the firearm until you pass your background check.
Many states have a waiting or "cooling off" period before they'll give you the gun. For those states that have them it's usually 3 to 10 days. In a "free" state like Idaho, there is no waiting period.
When you do go shooting, safety will obviously be the top priority. Then it's a matter of getting comfortable with them, and you'll really come to enjoy shooting.
1) You will need to buy a fishing license to fish fresh or ocean waters from the state. It's really not expensive. Roughly usually less than $100 for an annual license.
2) To purchase a gun, yes you will need to fill out some paperwork, which only takes about 20-30min. Once done, you can walk out with it, however, some states require a waiting period of a few days to a few weeks, depending on the type.
In MOST, states, it takes about 30 minutes ot buy a gun. You fill out papers and show an ID> they run a background check through the National Instant Check System. and if you have no criminal record. you can walk out with it.
Of course the states with the worst crime rates have the strictest gun laws and waiting periods...go figure. As Heinlein said 'An armed society is a polite society'.
… or no background check in some states that issue handguns licenses/permits.
@6:23 most states in the US require a saltwater fishing license to fish in the ocean (from the shore or a dock) but it is very simple and cheap to get in most states. Fishing in lakes or ponds (off private property) generally requires a fishing permit, however, they are also generally very cheap and easy to get. In most states you can simply apply and pay a small fee online. I believe if you went out from shore a certain distance no permit is needed for non-commercial fishing, however, I may be mistaken about that.
@12:20 Purchase of handguns varies by states. Some states have a "waiting/cooling-off" period which means you apply and then you can come back in three days or a week (or whatever the waiting period is in that state) and then pickup your handgun or other firearm. However, in a significant number of states you can complete the paperwork and background check and walk out with your firearm in about an hour. Some states also place a restriction on how many firearms you can purchase in a certain time period (eg: one firearm every three weeks), unless you are a license firearm dealer. I'm a retired former local cop and former federal agent and in most states I worked (Missouri, California, Virginia), every time I purchased a firearm I was in and out in an hour. I don't think I actually purchased any firearms while I was in California though although I did sell one there and that required that a firearms dealer act as the intermediary for the transfer. That's not the case in many other states for a private sale.
@13:30 As a non-US citizen you can absolutely rent and shoot firearms at a range in the US. You just can't legally buy one or leave the premises with one.
Any food harvested belongs to the state. That means fish, vegetables someone may try to grow for themselves, chickens or eggs, ANYTHING, belongs to the state. And it can be confiscated and you could end up in jail. Every cuban receives stipend for food that must be used at gov't stores, that run out of food.
For the dumb kids that are lucky to live in america (or pretty much any western nation, really) but think communism sounds good....go to cuba
In a communist country there is no government, and that is the funny part of it. Like how the US spreads freedom by slaughtering people, conquering their government and installing a puppet government. Slavery is freedom and all, joke.
Hogwash. Not only can Cubans grow their own food and it’s 100% theirs. They are encouraged to grow their own in any and every available space. They can also raise their own chickens if they can afford to feed them.
@@joelamaro4525 hogwash on your hogwash! these cubans growing food have to have documentation to grow but it can be taken away in harsh times (all the time) also they can only get a small portion of what they grow.
I have a bass pro shop right around the corner from my house and I love it. They also let me bring my dog in with me so that’s a plus. No service animal check required although she is one.
Usually you need a fishing license to fish. If deep sea fishing , the people who take you out have the license.
Super simple to get though
@@chasedyer5950 Yeah, small fee, like $20-30 and a form, bam you are licensed to fish in your state. And most states will honor another state's fishing license. Hunting license, probably not.
30 bucks. Some parks will do weekends where you don’t need a license to fish there too. It has to be advertised that way, though
and you pay, the owner of the boat some money, chipping with other fishermen. My son goes every year for deep fishing,and I think there is also limit how many or what kind one person can have and I think is very good, because some people are very greedy and never have enough....
If you own your own lake or pond on your own property you do not need a fishing license.
Usually in the US, you get a license to fish in the ocean included in the price of the fishing trip. Good boats cost anywhere from $30,000 to $70,000. There is a lot of paperwork to buy a gun. A criminal background check, a waiting period, etc, and a fee just to do the paperwork. There are also classes to take, and safety equipment to buy. The cheaper guns are probably the kids guns.
5:37
"What Is That?"
That's a scale to weigh the fish that you'd caught
The most restrictive experience I've had buying a gun was Hawaii. Handguns require a purchase permit for each handgun. Long gun permits are valid for 30 days, and do not have a limit on # of purchases.
1) you go to the store and pick out the handgun you want, then fill out a purchase permit application form for that specific gun.
2) you take the form to the police department, get finger prints taken and pay a fee ($10 @ that time) for a handgun purchase permit.
3)wait 10 days.
4) pick up the handgun purchase permit from the police department and take it to the gun store.
5) pay for the handgun, and fill out the federal form 4473. Wait for your NICS check to be approved, then you can leave with the handgun.
6) take your permit and the handgun back to the police department so they can inspect and photograph it for the gun owners file that they maintain on you. Now you're done with the process.
In Bass Pro Shops in Richmond there's a 109 pounds, 53 inches long and a girth of 41 inches (when caught) blue catfish that was caught in the lake I live on. Not long after a larger blue catfish was caught, a 143-pound blue catfish, that set a new world record --- but it did not survive to end up like the 109 pounder.
Firstly, going into a Bass Pro Shop/Cabela's is a treat for ANYONE, even Americans who have gone to them already. It's just an awesome store. Secondly, as for buying a gun, in most states at least, you have to be not just a U.S. citizen but a citizen of that state with a valid ID. You then have to fill out the background check and be approved before you buy it. However, in some states buying a long gun (rifle) may be easier than in others. Generally, you have to be 18 to buy a long gun and 21 to buy a handgun. But, yes, laws will vary by state.
She is from Cuba too! I've been watching them for a few years, such a lovely couple!!
God bless America. The land of the free means something. The freedom to hunt, fish and camp whenever you want and having open parks for those purposes and places like Bass Pro shop that make it possible and fun. I love this country.
A lot of times, you can actually spend more on the site than you do on the rifle.
A really nice beginner level hunting rifle starts around $800 USD, but good optics start around $1,000 USD.
The rifles in the middle you thought were shotguns, I believe were black powder (modern muskets). They're still really popular among sportsmen and usually run between .50 to .64 caliber. So, they do kick pretty good.
We have a boat that we take into the ocean to fish. Fishing in saltwater requires no license. But there are strict rules on the amount of fish of certain breeds and the length of them. They do check!
Freshwater fishing requires licenses in each state.
So for fishing at least for my state of Illinois in America. For park ponds, you dont need a "Fishing license". A fishing license you get at any bass pro, walmart etc at the counter. Usually will cost you like $14. This allows you to fish national parks for most fish, if your going for trout and salmon you need an additional stamp. Theres rules and regulations to stop overfishing so like pounds and size matter, and theres a catch limit per fish type. Saltwaterfishing is a whole different license from freshwater, due to me being inland this is the extent of my knowledge. Love the genuine curiosity in the videos ✌🏻
You have to have a fishing license and you have to know what it weighs and how big it is. You can't get more than the number allowed per species or too small. They don't want people depleting the numbers.
A trip to Bass Pro or to Cabela's either one, is not a shopping excursion. It is a pilgrimage. Our nearest Cabela's is in Gonzales, about 60 miles from my house in New Orleans. It is an all day affair. The dioramas and aquariums alone are captivating. For anyone having an appreciation or proclivity to the fishing or shooting sports, or camping, hiking, paddling, virtually any outdoor activity, it is Disneyland, with rods, reels, guns, tents, hats, boots, and boats. Like many things in America, it is huge by intent, not simply by circumstance. It isn't a shop. It is an attraction, a shrine, a destination. It was absolutely mind blowing the first time I ever entered one, so I can only imagine seeing one through the eyes of a person who had grown to adulthood having never even been inside a walmart superstore or an American supermarket.
Yes, to go fishing in the sea, there is little to do but just go. Your boat must have appropriate documentation and safety equipment, of course, and you will need a fishing license. But assuming it is your boat, you don't need specific permission for a fishing trip.
Yeah many of those boats are priced into the six figure range.
Buying a gun from a licensed dealer in most states is pretty simple. You go in, fill out a form 4473, the clerk runs a background check that takes usually only a few minutes, you pay, and they wrap up your gun (with a warning to not open the box and play with it until you are outside, a potentially fatal lapse in judgement) and away you go. Buying ammo is even less paperwork, as in zero. Show your drivers license, usually, that's it. holsters, parts, upgrades, cleaning equipment or other accessories, nothing, just pay. A few states with more tyrannical leftist governments deeply restrict what sort of firearms you may buy, regulate how you may buy them, and even outlaw private sales between individuals. Most states do not even outlaw ownership of automatic weapons (machine guns) although there are federal regulations that make this difficult. Likewise, most states do not prohibit private sales between individuals. In 29 out of the 50 states, you do not even need a license to legally carry any concealed firearm that you may legally own. Certain individuals may not possess a firearm, such as convicted felons, those who have been declared mentally unfit,and there are age requirements for possession or for purchasing from a licensed dealer.We have restrictions, which are of course all in violation of our Constitution, but it is nowhere near as restrictive in the UK or in other countries that are even worse, like of course Cuba.
By all means, visit a range, preferably one that has rental guns, along with a knowledgeable person who can coach you on safety and operation of a firearm. If you are at all curious, it will be a life changing experience for you. Even people who have been taught to hate or fear guns, all leave the firing line with big grins on their faces. Honestly, shooting is about the most fun you can have with your pants on.
Am I the first?
Each state has their own fishing license and rules.
At the ocean you can fish on either the pier or the beach (I can’t remember which) without the license
She is from the US I believe and of cuban descent
The owners of the pier hold the license so you don't need one there, but you do need one for fishing from the beach.
… depending on the state. In my state only as an example, if you have a line in the water, you need a fishing license.
There are exemptions by age of under 17, within state parks and on free fishing days.
The BEST Bass Pro Shop/Outdoor World to visit is the one in Springfield, Missouri right next to the Johnny Morris Wonders of Wildlife Museum & Aquarium! I'm a big Outdoors Guy! I go to our local Outdoor World and GEEK OUT for hours! I have to behave with the CC! I could blow a boatload of money in this place! FUN! FUN! FUN!
Brought tears to my eyes to see how much he was enamored by and enjoyed this. Reminds my why I love my country 🇺🇸
You need to watch his full length video where he talks about how it was in Cuba. It should really make us think and make us grateful for what we have.
I love the BASSPRO brand baitcasting reels. IDK who makes them they perform flawlessly.
Got me that Johnny Morris signature series five years ago, fish at least two times a week on a local 900 acre lake and it's been great....
For ocean fishing in the US, you simply need a salt water fishing license which can be purchased online or at any fishing store for usually less than $100/yr for most states. Each state requires its own licensing however.
Fishing and hunting gear is like most things in Cuba made by the people that live there either from scratch or more often adapted from existing items.
looks like someone is hooked on their videos. lol its a good thing
Fishing: depends on the state... Usually you have to have a fishing license to fish in most places. when you want to fish in the ocean most go out on a boat where the captain takes you to fishing waters... Or if you have your own boat.... Both need a fishing license and the type of license may be fish / crab specific.... off the Oregon coast you can get a day or multi day license and go out salmon fishing and catch crab too.
You can drive a boat in the ocean as long as you have a boating license. But to fish out there you need a license for fishing and tags for what you're catching. For buying guns, it varies greatly state to state. My state, New Jersey, is arguably the strictest, so a lot of paperwork is needed plus background checks. But other states, generally in the south, you can basically walk in and buy a gun like you would a pack of gum.
I live in south florida 10 mins from the beach. You only need a salt water fishing license for majority of the species. Some have length restrictions also time of year you can catch. Some species require additional permitting, and some you have to immediately release. Other than that i can hook up boat and in 20 mins from leaving my house be on the ocean trolling for dinner. Then the next day be in the woods in a tree stand ready for that buck or hog. Love where i live.
I do agree. Bass pro dose have a unique look. It's modeled after a long cabin. If you go to Old Faithful Inn, Yellowstone, it looks very similar. Kind of a home built log cabin feel.
Great channel. Please react to more of Yoel and Mari!
To fish you buy a license. You can get them any where, like Walmart. To buy a gun you fill out a form. And when it goes through you can pick up you gun. You can also apply for a concealed weapon permit. If you want to carry concealed. Here in PA we can open carry. You can pay all kinds of prices for guns it just depends what you want and what accessories. Going to a gun range is a good idea. Call the range and see if you can try several different types of firearms. Everyone prefers different things. So it is good to figure out what you like and what works for you. And for the type of purpose from self defense to sport hunting for different animals or birds.
The big problem with a waterfall fishpond inside the house is the moisture condensation on everything if not properly vented! Unfortunately for the man who installed it. He was an OTR driver so it took awhile for him to realize that the entire house was full of mold and water damage.
I live in Texas. Buying a firearm is different from state to state.
When buying a firearm in Texas you fill out an FBI background check form. They respond relatively quickly. If you have a clean record you buy and walk out with said firearm.
Some states have ‘cooling off’ periods where you have to wait a certain number of days after the background check clears.
In america, you need a fishing license to fish in public, but most people don't follow that. There's rules on what fish you can keep and what you have to throw back, also how many you can keep. They're super easy to get.
On private land you can fish.
In order to fish off a boat in the ocean. You need a Captain registered with the coast guard. Which is basically boat traffic cops, boat highway patrol, search & rescue, and domestic threats for the ocean. This actually requires sailing knowledge and navigation skills but is certainly attainable. Most people "charter" a "charter captain" or captain for hire.
Those kids fishing rods are at every Bass Pro Shop. The stores are so big and stocked with so much merchandise that every video you find only shows pieces of the store.
Here in AZ, we have Bass Pro, Sportsman's Warehouse, Cabela's , Scheels, and many independent gun and outdoor shops. FYI!!!
That Bass pro shop is smaller, by a long shot, from the one I've visited in Springfield Missouri...one in Springfield Missouri has a full on aquarium in it as well as a whole gun museum that is 2 stories and over an acre of just guns!... Not to mention the boat section is massive!
i love working for Bass Pro Shops... best company I've ever worked for... never a bad day going to work.
We have a BassProShop in Vegas. It's attached to the Silverton Casino. They have a bigger, taller more extensive waterfall and pools with fish. At the exit into the casino, they have a huge saltwater tank with live mermaids, sharks and all kinds of colorful reef and ocean fishes. Yes, you have to do a background check and fill out federal forms to buy a gun. They have every kind of hunting rifles, shotguns, handguns, military-style rifles there. Ammo too. If you need outdoor equipment or toys they have it.
I have been to that particular Bass Pro Shop, I used to live near it. It's not large enough to get lost in, but it's large enough to kill a half a day in.
When you come to the States, go where you have access to automatic weapons. You can try out virtually anything you like, MAC 10, Thompson Sub machine gun with 100 round drum, UZI's, Browning Automatic Rifle, Remington Machine Rifle, AK47, the Stormkavic assault rifle. You can rock & roll all day long.
In the US you need to have a "license" which is just something you pay for, there is no test or anything and you won't be denied. In California they start at a one day license for $20 up to a one year license for $60 depending on what you want it for. If you are fishing for certain special fish like Salmon you have to pay a $10 fee and then tell them how many you caught at the end of the year so they can use that data to regulate the fish population. There are dicounts and free fishing days. Also you don't need a license to fish off an ocean pier, you do need one if you are going out in a boat to fish. You can pay for an ocean tour boat to take you out ocean fishing and teach you what to do.
In America to narrow it down rifles and shotguns (long guns) are 18+ age and usually don't require a permit just fill out paperwork, complete a FFL and background check. Pistols require you to be 21 years or older and probably about a quarter of states require a permit for pistol. States like Florida have a waiting period to pick the gun up after you bought it so that's like a week give or take I forget exactly.
To buy a gun. It is different depending on the state you are in. In Texas, you go to the store, find what you want, fill out form 4473. The dealer takes the information from the form and calls for a back ground check. Sometimes this takes about 30 minutes, and at times you have to wait three business days. If you get cleared, or there is no reply within three days you can go pick up the gun. Now some stores impose a longer wait time than three days to get an answer back. If buying from an individual no paper work, no back ground check and no wait period.
You should see the Bass Pro Shop in Springfield, Missouri.
It's amazing!
It even has its own aquarium and adventure tour that takes hours of exploration!
Best in the US!!!
At 5:35. That's a digital fish scale. In the US there are two licenses, in my state anyway, a Fresh Water license, and Salt Water (offshore) license.
I was happy to hear your comment about appreciating what a blessing it is to be born in a prosperous, free county. It’s easy to forget what a win in the life lottery that is. I’m so grateful to have been born in the USA, as I’m sure others born in liberty rich nations are as well. It’s easy to take that for granted, when you sulk about inconsequential, petty everyday things. Videos like this are a good reminder about what’s really important.
There's a saying in the U.S. about the maintenance costs of owning a boat...It's that the word boat is an acronym that means "bust out another thousand"
I am a FFL holder and sale firearms. It depends on the state you are in.
In general - for a pistol or revolver you have to take possession in the state you live in. For example you could buy a pistol in Tennessee but it would have to be shipped to a FFL in the state you live in.
Long guns - this gets kind of funky. You can buy and take possession in a connecting state that borders the state you live in. For example if you are from Arkansas and buy a long gun in Tennessee you can take possession of it. If you are from Arkansas and buy a long gun in Alabama you will have to have it shipped to a FFL in Arkansas.
Now some states have a waiting period before you can take possession of any firearm you purchase. You buy it and fill out the paperwork and once approved you have a waiting period before you can take possession.
If you want to fish while you're visiting in the US, just hire a local guide. Almost everywhere you go in the US, if there is anything to do with getting outdoors there are local guides who are typically licensed, safe, the works. They can take you to some AMAZING places and you'll have an awesome time. Pick and choose carefully, and don't forget almost anything you catch/kill you often have the option to eat it that night or some places will, for the right price, ship it home (most places can ship to just about anywhere in the world, with some restrictions).
Google Bass Pro Shops Springfield Missouri. Its absolutely massive. 2 museums, an aquarium that has cage diving with sharks.
In international waters you don’t need a fishing license. But in US waters in the ocean or river you have to have a fishing license. And salt water and fresh water are 2 different licenses.
A video like this let's me appreciate being born in the USA. The pure joy of his reactions of Bass pro shops ❤
The process of buying a gun is different from state to state. I live in North Carolina. For my entire life, you could walk into a store and buy a rifle or shotgun, with no permit required. For a handgun, it used to require a valid pistol purchase permit, or concealed carry permit to buy. These permits are issued by the sheriff of the county you live in. Once you had your permit, you can purchase a handgun. For a purchase permit, it required a background check performed by the sheriff’s department. For concealed carry, it requires the background check, a class, and having your fingerprints put on file with the sheriff’s department.
As of last year, our state government did away with the requirement for a pistol purchase permit. The reason being, is because at the time of purchase, a federal background checks is ran, making the state background check redundant. So as of now, anyone who can legally own a firearm can go into a store and buy one whenever they like.
It's about five minutes of paperwork and maybe 30 minutes waiting for the background check to go through. Some states have a waiting period between purchase and when you receive it slightly more paperwork and a more thorough background check and you can get short barreled rifles, short barreled shotguns, destructive devices and machine guns if you can afford them
I'm fortunate enough to live in the place where Bass Pro is headquartered and has their flagship store (Springfield, Missouri). I sometimes go there just to hang out, people watch or go to the large aquarium ( i think it is the largest indoor one in the US). They also have a gun shooting range right within the store. BTW, there is a really cool gun store about 25 min. outside of Springfield called Mountainside Outfitters - you gotta check it out. Every kind of gun, custom guns, flame throwers, swords, small cannons, and other weapon known to man. The place gets filled up on most Staurdays. Be sure to check out the "decorated" ATF van
12:15 it depends on the state. Generally, as a US Citizen who isn't a felon, you walk in like any other store. Once you decide on one to purchase, you fill out a form 4473 which is for a NICS check. The store will immediately take that form and either digitally or on the phone contact a division of the FBI with your form info, which they will then tell the store you're legal to own a firearm. From there, you just pay and leave. You still have to respect all other laws, such as leaving the firearm in your trunk if you don't have a license to carry.
To purchase a firearm at Bass Pro it depends on your state. Some states a permit is required or a background check for handguns. Most rifles you can buy and bring home
To answer your Fishing question, Yes, you can just go out on the ocean and fish. Most US states I know of you do need a fishing license to do it legally, but they're only about $15-40 per year depending on the state(unless you live in California where its over $165 for a non-resident). In a lot of US states if you're Native American you get it all for free.
The Bass Pro Shop in Springfield Missouri is amazing and even has a shooting spots museum.
One of my favorite memories of my dad was when we went deep sea fishing when I was a teenager.
One restriction of gun purchases most people don’t know. Is you have to be a resident of that state to make a “pistol” purchase. That being said, you can have a pistol shipped to your local licensed dealer to make the purchase that way.
Long guns (ARs/AKs/Shotguns/Bolt Action…etc) can be purchased outside of the state you’re a resident of (but not all stores do it).
If it’s a private sale of a firearm, it might not matter, never done one so I’m not sure.
Cool thing about the fish tank is you can hold the lures and baits you wanna buy up to the glass and kinda gauge which fish like what.
If you got your US citizenship then the firearm purchasing process(depending on state) would just be a form and a 2 day or so wait period. It may even be faster now but that used to be the expected wait time to actually receive your gun. HOWEVER. Black powder guns aren't considered firearms and are completely legal to just buy and sell as if they were toy guns. They'll even mail the things to your door
This video gives a Boris Yeltsin visits a grocery store in Houston, Texas in 1989 vibes.
If you want to go to a Bass Pro shop, go to the one in Memphis Tennessee. It is built in the old NBA teams arena which is a Pyramid. You can not even describe it, you have to experience it.
In Florida you need a saltwater fishing license (boating) which cost $17 per year for a resident and $47 for nonresident.Unless you are fishing from a pier or the shoreline in which case NO license is required.For gun purchases you would need to have officially recognized ID then fill out a government questionnaire form and have a Federal background check which usually takes a few minutes. If purchasing a handgun there is a mandatory 3 day waiting period unless you have a CCW license or active duty personnel. All long guns there is no waiting period but some retailers like WalMart have their own waiting period policies of 3-5 days.
My brother died on a 800 foot long cargo ship that sunk in a hurricane not terribly far from Cuba in 2015 those waters are no joke to go in a tiny boat like that.
Those lures have hooks. We'll drop them off the back of the boat and troll with them through the water at low speed. You'll get all kinds of fish (Gulf Coast fishing for me). King mackerel, cobia, barracuda, etc.
To buy from a store you go there choose what you want they hand you a form 4473 which you then fill out completely with NO abbreviations. They then check the form to make sure you haven't admitted to anything not allowed then they call into the NICS system which will run your name against a list of prohibited purchasers. If it comes back clean you're good to go and pay for it. In some states you need an ID card to purchase or own one, some states require permits for pistols.
Each state has its own Game and Fish department that regulates licensing. You would need to get a license from the state where you intend to do offshore fishing. I lived in Miami for three years. Some the most genuine and kind people were the Cubans. Plus I miss their food and coffee!!!
I worked at Bass Pro as a cashier after having my youngest. Fantastic job and company. Please visit a couple when you come to the States. Each has the flavor of the area and you should be able to get a temporary fishing and/or hunting license for your visut. Even better you will definitely meet some ppl that will happily take you out on their boat or to go hunting and then enjoy homemade treats. ❤❤❤❤
Also fun fact trivia: in Florida, if you are on food stamps you do not need a fishing or hunting license, you are encouraged to feed yourself. 😂
To purchase fire arms are different in certain states. I’m a gun owner in California and you can’t just go into a store that sells guns, buy 1 and leave with it the same day. There’s a few steps in purchasing any fire arm in California. You have to fill out some paper work for gun ownership and a test for gun safety and If you pass all the requirements in owning 1, they still want you to wait 10 days to actually take 1 home. The 10 days waiting period is a dealer transfer of owner ship, that has to be approved by the depart of justice. This is only if you’re buying a gun for the first time? Also you can just buy ammo, you need to show your gun permit and valid drivers license or id. I’m not sure how it is in other states but California is super strict, well at least in Los Angeles County.
In America you can get a fishing license from your state and fish in almost any public waterways in your state. Its usually cheap. You can buy it for one day, a few days, a year, or lifetime. If you have private property with a pond or lake you can usually fish there without a license. If you are on the ocean and you go out to international waters you can fish out there no problem. The only way you get in trouble is if you come into port with too many fish. Over a certain amount and you need a commercial fishing license. This is to keep our fish populations sustainable.
