I thought New Hampshire was one of the few states where every citizen could carry w/o a permit. Were they holding misdemeanor (non-domestic battery) exceptions?
The federal domestic-battery law is BS, IMHO. I’m not in favor of violent offenders having gun rights but they made this retro-active, when many people had just taken the easy way out earlier, never suspecting their 2nd Amendment rights would later be infringed.
I would prefer a national carry permit.
Vermont has Constitutional carry, and was the only state to have it for some time. Their Supreme Court decided properly on the issue back in the 20’s, as I recall.
Durus is correct, I believe. New Hampshire would have constitutional carry, except for their Democrat governor, who I believe, has vetoed it twice.
