Adras & Altig specializes in criminal defense cases involving firearms violations in Nevada. Their focus: helping people charged with illegal gun sales navigate the state's strict weapons laws and protect their rights.

• •Illegal firearm sales – Class B felony charges (1-10 years, up to $10k fine)
• •Sales to prohibited persons – Felony charges for knowingly selling to convicted felons or others legally barred from ownership
• •Background check violations – Gross misdemeanor charges for failing to conduct required checks through licensed dealers
• •Sawed-off shotguns and prohibited firearms – Defense against possession and sales charges

Nevada allows private gun sales, but they must follow specific rules. All transactions require:

• •Licensed dealer facilitation and background check on buyer
• •Seller age: 18+ for rifles/shotguns, 21+ for handguns
• •Buyer must not be prohibited from ownership
• •Proper documentation maintained

Violations of these requirements result in serious felony convictions with lengthy prison sentences and significant fines.

Their defense strategies include: - Demonstrating lack of knowledge that the buyer was prohibited - Challenging entrapment by law enforcement - Proving mistaken belief the sale was legal
