Anything that reduces infringement is great news. Well done Texas!

Last year Tennessee reduced rates. Initial permit fee is now $100 and good for 8 years. Costs $50 to renew every 8 years. At anytime you can now upgrade to a lifetime permit for $200 which was also reduced from $500. At $200... for me to break even I'd have to live for another 32 years after my current permit requires renewal so I'll probably pass on the lifetime. Eh... maybe I'll get one just to have one. But if I pay the $200 I figure Tennessee will go to Constitutional Carry within 10 minutes after my CC is charged. Anyone else have my kinda luck?

I was surprised to read that Texas requires an annual renewal fee. That sounds like a hassle resulting in a lot folks forgetting and having their permit expire???
