Use of the phrase "hidden guns" always betrays the anti-gun crowd. Idaho changed to permitless concealed carry for state residents on July 15, 2016. It happened without much notice. The sun still rises each morning. The residency requirement is being reviewed as the manner of determining residency isn't crystal clear. Efforts are being made to drop residency. Straight Constitutional carry.

That is good, a permit is nothing but an infringement which the second amendment forbids.
