There are still draconian “may issue” states out there?
“There are still draconian “may issue” states out there?”
Yes. Several. NY, HI, CA, NY, MD, NJ, MA to name some of the guilty states. I’d add TX because of the very high cost of their permit.
As was mentioned above this is a divided opinion by 3 judge panel. Judges ina favor of right to bear arms were: O’Scannlain - Reagan apppointee and Callahan - G.W.B appointee, dissenting judge was Thomas - Clinton appointee. That pretty much explains the ruling.
IIRC, NJ or MD or possibly both are the worst offenders. May issue by law, but “no issue” by practice, unless you are a retired cop, know someone, etc.

Yup. New Jersey is one of them.
