There are close to as many states with constitutional carry as there are "may issue" states.

I hope this applies to out of staters as well. It’s a pain in the butt to have to leave the guns at home every time I go shopping in Maine. (I live in a NH border town)

America's Governor Paul LePage.
In just the past 6 months, he has slashed aid to cities who give welfare to illegal aliens, forced welfare sponges to work - leading to an astonishing 80% reduction in the welfare rolls, and now is about to sign the carry bill he demanded.

Which is worth remembering anytime you find yourself comparing the increasing incidence of concealed carry permits with the decreasing violent crime rate. There are far more people carrying concealed handguns than one might infer by strictly looking at the number of permits issued since states like Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Vermont, Wyoming, and now Maine do not issue concealed carry permits to their citizens.
That being the case, the comparison is even more stark and the conclusions are even more undeniable.

My son was glad to see the changes in the age requirement. He was mad that in the original writing at 20 he could own a pistol, but not carry it under under the bill. I think the gov was right in saying he would veto the bill if that didn’t change!
