CCW permit in two weeks without even a qualification course. Open and concealed carry .Castle Doctrine. The ONLY law making body that can change a firearm law is the state legislature.
Home to about 1 million deer hunters who use high powered rifles and not shotguns.You can even have your” Winchester Cabin” in the millions of acres of forest land that exists in the state.
