I hope this gets passed, but I’m not going to be the test case for New Jersey or NYC.
California will go into full conniption over this.
As a “May Issue” state, usually only the politically connected can get a permit in the urban counties...as it is left up to the County Sheriff to approve.
The fact that “rednecks” from Ariz, NV and OR will be able to freely carry here will send them into another universe of conniption.
When someone is shooting at you a “permit” will be the last thing on your mind it’s up to the one’s who want to risk a fine or die.
As long as this doesn’t lead to a National Registry of CPL holders. Confiscation won’t be far behind.
Better, IMO, to amend the 1963 GCA and allow those who are licensed CCWs to have firearms shipped directly to them after filling out a 4473 and sending it in with a copy of the license.
We can use the “Well he was mugged, fingerprinted and passed the State and Federal background checks, which is far more than Bloomberg’s schemes require, so why not?”
Use the liberals’ mantra “It’s not fair.” :-)
I am more interested in the hearing protection act so we can buy supressors without having to pay a $200 tax and wait 6-12 months to get it.
My fear is that this might become linked to other requirements for gun owners.
I could not agree more.
Should work the same way drivers licenses work.
Issued in one state but valid in all 50. I know, liberals just don’t get it.
A loophole big enough to launch a Saturn V through.
Well, that's the death knell. Nobody will be coming in from out of state and carrying in any of the Slave States: NY, NJ, MA, MD, RI, CA, MN, IL, HI.
Let me note that regardless of the bill’s passage or even its content, this is a step on the return path to “regular order”, where single-purpose bills are less than a thousand pages long, and drawn up by our lawmakers, not by think tanks or industry or “The Deep State”, and are publicized in advance and debated by the full Congress, not sneaked into “must pass” bills at the last minute.
This needs to get scrapped unless "permits its resident" means "if anybody, then everybody."
