Beginning to look like a CCW is a mixed blessing when you travel. I hate the FedGov., but since the 2A is a bedrock liberty issue, maybe it’s time for an all encompassing federal law that preempts all State CCW laws and institutes a National Right to Carry Statute that places restraints on what States can do to restrict the carrying of weapons while traveling.

I’ve got mixed emotions about that.
I believe the bill of rights placed restrictions on the feds
and the ugly 14th amendment “incorporated” them unto the states.

I wonder to myself; to myself, I wonder...
How come South Carolina recognizes my Georgia driver’s license
but they don’t recognize my Georgia concealed carry permit?
Why is that, I wonder to myself.

I agree, something that specifically says the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

I think the founders DID issue a National carry permit. It says right to keep AND BARE arms shall not be infringed.

So, the catch 22 is if you “legally” register you’re firearms and play by the good citizen rules your subject to a search because the state does not recognize your states issuance of said permit. I do have to pay attention to doing 72 in a 55 mph zone (foolish driving) in another state . I have traveled that corridor many times and never had to deal with any cops ...but I have always believed that registering your guns is foolish, remember what the authorities did to legal gun owners after Katrina...blatant confiscation of legally registered guns. The purpose of owning a handgun is personal protection of life and property when threatened ...well protect yourself and resolve the situation entirely and involve no one and move on. The fact is that criminals now are protected more by the “legal” system than the citizen that funds and abides by the multiple scattered laws....it truly is a free for all with law abiding citizens being undermined with the very laws they usually obey.
