Reciprocity introduced

[ladder13]

Jim Jordan bringing it to committee. Now apparently out of committee.

The House Judiciary Committee led by Chairman Jim Jordan just voted to advance Richard Hudson’s Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act for a full floor vote in the House.

This GOA-backed nationwide carry bill also protects Constitutional Carry. If you’re a resident of a Constitutional Carry state, then you can continue to carry without a permit nationwide.
President Trump already declared that he would sign this bill into law if it reaches his desk.


I expect a lot of moaning as usual in these threads.

I hope it passes, we still have a Democratic majority in the NC legislature plus a Liberal governor. In any case, I'll continue my permit carry. What I'd like to see is a broadening of where you can legally carry.

On a different front, Duke did a nice job on Arizona last night, huh? Second hundred-point victory in this year's tournament.

 

[ladder13]

NC has a Rep majority in theory, but one vote short of being veto proof.

I go through MD a few times a year, it’s terrifying. Feels like they’re in the bushes waiting to pounce on you.
Started the process of a MD permit, or whatever they call it. It was so onerous I just gave up.

I wonder how it will address home states that do not require a permit for carry? Perhaps they will start issuing permits to address the matter? Nothing is as easy as you think it will be.

Haven’t seen the Bill but……
Post updated answering that issue.

Then there are places like Washington State.

A new bill about to be signed into law requires a WA state permit to even apply for a CCW permit. Requires training to get a permit to buy a permit, and requires a permit to even buy a firearm - oh yes, a permit is even required to buy a cartridge for the gun you need a permit to buy. It also limits the number of cartridges that can be bought each month, and only one gun can be bought in a month. Of course, this is in addition to the current WA state law that prohibits a resident from selling or even loaning a gun to anyone without yet another permit and that all such loans, gifts, or transfers must be done by an FFL, that also must have a Washington State firearms transfer license

Geeez!

Just got my CC in Virginia renewed. If I drive through Maryland I carry a very long Phllips head screwdriver .

 

[dben002]

I also hope it will pass .... with a rider or two attached...I can't in good faith agree that anyone 18 or older can carry concealed without some form of firearm training and some form of background check just to identify the ones that are felons or otherwise on the dark side of the law...

It sure is a step in the right direction but this may be just a bit toooooooooooooooooo liberal.

Clarification

I go through MD a few times a year, it’s terrifying. Feels like they’re in the bushes waiting to pounce on you.
Started the process of a MD permit, or whatever they call it. It was so onerous I just gave up.

As I have a time share in the OBX, for 3 weeks a year, I have to travel thru MD multiple times a year, to get there (OBX), and back to PA

I obtained my MD Wear and Carry permit in early 2023, a 16-hour course/qualification

Last weekend I took my renewal course/qualification (8-hours), to be good for another 3 years

It really isn't that bad and I highly suggest you get it, if you have any need to travel thru MD

I didn't find the process difficult at all

Feel free to message me if you have any questions I might be able to help you with

Late note: OBX = Outer Banks, NC

Here’s the thing. When traveling through MD just lock ii in trunk separately from ammo and unloaded. If it’s legal where your trip began and is legal at your destination you are covered by a law that I think is called Interstate something or another. But it’s a real thing.

 

[johngalt]

If the bill really allows someone from a constitutional carry state to carry with no permit in a state that requires one, that is going to get it thrown out as unconstitutional. Will it also say that a person carrying only has to observe carry restrictions from his home state rather than the state in which he is currently carrying? Same principle.

Equal protection under the law.

 

[zeke]

Living in a state bordering minnescrota and illanoid, universal carry would be nice. Yes you can stop, unconceal, unload and store in an locked carrying case. Which does absolutely nothing to protect yourself from all the miscreants these states support.

And it's worn a bit sharp, right?

Unfortunately, I'm not passing through when I go to Maryland, but I'm visiting family in and near Baltimore, which has one of the highest violent crime rates in the nation. They've been filming my last few unarmed trips there for episodes of "Naked and Afraid."

I hope it goes asses too, but if it does, I see it raining law suits from blue state AGs.

Geeez!

Great news is that the 9th Circus has already ruled en banc that CA's 1 on 30 days law is unconstitutional and enjoined permanently. So if this passes into law, an immediate lawsuit and injunction will occur, unless everyone is corrupt.

 

[BC38]

Even if this passes in the House, it has basically ZERO chance of passing in the Senate and will never make it to the desk of the President to be signed into law.

I give the House an A for effort to try to make Constitutional Carry the law of the land.

But unfortunately, it really is a moot point, since it will never pass both houses of Congress and be enacted into law.

ZERO CHANCE.
