No, you can get a nonresident concealed carry permits in both states. In fact, New York will soon be offering the classes to obtain these two states’ nonresident CCW permits so we don’t even have to leave the state (though you can probably do this on your own anyway).

A quick Google search says that 28 states honor the Florida CCW permit, though I don’t know if this is the most recent data:

Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Delaware, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, New Hampshire, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Ohio, Virginia, and Wyoming.

they are leaving MA,NY,NJ,RI,CT in droves and moving to VA,NC,FL and thus bringing their ignorant voting ways with them

they screw up their old state and now move to a red state which is doing good only to make it look like their own and screw another state up

IDIOTS

People buying guns where the background checks are done are just on the list to have them confiscated. If your state allows person-to-person sales with no background checks then that is what I would do. I lost all my guns long ago when my canoe tragically overturned.

We'll see an even more restrictive so-called "assault weapons" ban in 2009. With no sunset clause----permanent.

And we'll see an anti "gun show loophole" law passed, that will outlaw all private person to person sales of firearms. The goal is 100% tracking of all firearms sales going forward.

Never bought a gun before but I’ve thinking of it the last three weeks. Definitely will now, but i have no idea what to get. My mom who is not at all a gun person decided to get one Wednesday. Fortunately I live in VA. I hope its possible to buy one without the government knowing? I don’t want to get a list for the confiscation I expect to come down the road...

Obama’s Assault Weapon ban...

“Defines “Assault Weapon” as any firearm that fires in a semi-automatic or automatic function and/or accepts magazines capable of holding five or more rounds inside of it. Also defines any rifle that can shoot rounds more than 1/2 mile, and any gun with a length smaller than six inches, and any pump action shot-gun”

“Restrictions... All “Assault Weapons” must be registered as NFA weapons, no Assault weapons may be made or sold to the public after 100 days after passage of this bill. All Transactions of AW’s after 100 days of passage are subject to NFA paperwork and a $5000 tax payable to the IRS”

N.B. Not that anything would have been different under a McCain presidency. The Gun Show 'Loophole' has been a target of his for years.

That's probably too close to qualify as satire.

Are there any states left that don't do a background check? Sorry you lost all your guns! (Were they in the canoe - I didn't quite get the connection.)

All sales made through a dealer must have a background check done first. That is a federal law. Some states, Colorado included, require a background check if the sale is made at a gun show. Many states do not require a background check for a face-to-face sale between legal age residents of the same state. Colorado does not require any paperwork at all for a face-to-face sale so there is no paper trail to trace a gun to you. I don’t know if the dealer paperwork records the model and S/N of a gun. Maybe a FFL holder on here would know.

Yes, it is tragic that I lost every gun that had dealer paperwork when my canoe turned over on that camping trip. That is the reason I can’t turn them in. That is my story and I’m sticking to it. /s

LOL about your canoe. I didn’t see the sarcasm the first time around. Hehehehee....
