All but 6 states have a right to bear arms provision in their constitution. In several states, the right is not explicitly strong and clear. Arkansas is in the process of improving their constitution.

I don’t understand why they still say “common” defense and don’t include “individual” or “personal”. They should make it clear that you have a right to have firearms tos defend yourself as an individual.

I realize they put “any other lawful purpose” but laws are subject to the whims of lawmakers. What is lawful today may not be tomorrow.

75% plus Republicans in state house and senate. Half a dozen of them want an Arkansas NFA only.

Just take out the word, “common.” Fewer words make fewer points of argument.
