While everyone is excited by President-elect Trump that he would like to see a national concealed carry reciprocity bill passed, let us remember that this is not how we make laws, rather it is Congress' job.
Washington Gun Law President, William Kirk, discusses the good news as there is already a piece of legislation, sponsored by Thomas Massie, which would do exactly that.
And now that the GOP is in control why not get this bill passed into law?

My thought is we live as the 2nd amendment is written. No permits required. Stop the crap.
Zak Lee!
As long as they have restrictions on illegals being armed its good.
“While everyone is excited by President-elect Trump that he would like to see a national concealed carry reciprocity bill passed, let us remember that this is not how we make laws, rather it is Congress’ job.”
Trump CANNOT PASS A BILL, SO TRUMP IS EXACTLY RIGHT AND THIS GUY IS REPEATING TRUMP AND SAYING TRUMP IS WRONG.
Freakin’ stupid!
Agreed. The guy is a great 2A advocate, but is acting as if Trump was going to issue a seal to impose this on the states.
EO, not a “seal.” I hate autocorrect.
Couldn’t agree more.
Tru dat.
:: right of the people to keep and bear Arms ::
Is there not, within that statement, an implication that the arms I keep and bear can be of equal utility as those arms that can be “beared” against me?
If my enemies, foreign and domestic, have war-level weapons (automatic, large bore, exploding load, etc.), aren’t I allowed these same weapons?
Never bring a pew-pew to an RPG fight.
Yep - “reciprocity” shouldn’t even be part of it - being an American on American soil should give one the right to carry concealed/unconcealed period.
You always will if you expect it to read your mind.
Turn it off.

You have a good point. The entire Bill of Rights should apply only to genuine US citizens and foreigners here legally.
And actually, the last time I bought a gun, the questionnaire I filled out did say something about being here legally, or being a US citizen.
But legal or not does not matter to the democrats in charge. If they want their illegals armed, they will be armed.
"The corollary, from the first position, is, that the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
The prohibition is general. No clause in the Constitution could by any rule of construction be conceived to give to congress a power to disarm the people.
Such a flagitious attempt could only be made under some general pretence by a state legislature.
But if in any blind pursuit of inordinate power, either should attempt it, this amendment may be appealed to as a restraint on both."
In GA we have state level preemption i.e. No local government as allowed to pass gun control laws - it all must be state level. Why not National preemption where no state is allowed to have gun control laws and it is all at the national level?
