California Sheriff Denied A Gun

Sheriff John Lopey, duly elected and certified law officer, applied to buy an M1 Garand rifle through the Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) and was refused. He was told he failed to pass the National Criminal Investigation Service (NCIS) background check. This is a county sheriff! Prior to being sheriff he spent 35 years with the California Highway Patrol and before that was an Army Colonel with top security clearance. And he was REFUSED? Does this tell you anything about the competence of the systems they are going to use to keep track of YOUR gun ownership and your right to carry a gun after they get their phony laws made?
