Wisconsin has added Alabama, Massachusetts, Mississippi, South Carolina and South Dakota to the list of states they honor. Wisconsin is stating they will only honor the Massachusetts Class A permit. You can see their listing of states they honor here: https://www.doj.state.wi.us/dles/cib/conceal-carry/reciprocity

The Idaho Governor has signed Permitless Carry. It didn’t change that much actually. Anyone (Resident/Non-Resident) 18 or older who can legally possess a firearm could carry concealed outside the confines of any Idaho City without a permit/license. This new law just allows Idaho Residents 21 and older to carry without a permit/license inside city limits. It also makes Idaho Shall Issue for those 18-20 where before it was May Issue by the local Sheriff. http://www.legislature.idaho.gov/legislation/2016/S1389.pdf

The US Supreme Court refused to hear an appeal on the Postal Services Ban of Firearms in their buildings and parking lots. The refusal to hear this appeal means the Post Office ban on firearms on their property is upheld and those areas are still off limits to carrying or possessing firearms.

The US Supreme Court did rule that Massachusetts ban on Stun Guns were a self defense tool and didn’t meet the courts previous ruling in Heller. The lower court in Massachusetts must now rule on this case again taking Heller into consideration. This case could have a widespread impact on Stun Gun restrictions across America carried for self defense purposes. Time will tell. You can read the ruling here:

Tennessee Signage requirements will change July 1. Signage requirements are spelled out for the specific sign in the new law. Places already posted with a sign have until 1/1/18 to update their signs. You can read the new requirements here.

Handgunlaw.us keeps reading in the press different dates that the West Virginia Permitless Carry Law goes into effect. The state has not put out an official date and Handgunlaw.us will go with the date the West Virginia Citizens Defense League has put out which is June 5, 2016 unless the state of West Virginia puts out a different date.

I missed in the WI listing that SD was listed as a state they would honor and in the listing of states they would not honor. This makes Handgunlaw.us believe that it is only the SD Enhanced that they will honor. We have an email into the WI DOJ asking about this but will not get an answer until Monday at the earliest. We also ask about Mississippi as they have an Enhanced permit now.
 
All very infomative. Nice of Wi. to honor Ma. as Ma. will not honor permits from any other state. Non-residents cannot even purchase a lousy box of ammo for hunting but you can bet the state won't refuse cash for a non-resident sporting license.
 
I have heard back for the Wisconsin DOJ. The person thanked me and passed on my email on to those who would have the correct answer. I look for them to make changes to their listing one way or the other early next week. At least I hope they will.

As great as it was to watch the SJC of MA get slapped down hard regarding its gross distortions and misinterpretations re: Heller, I wouldn't read too much into it with respect to the status of stun guns and similar weapons in other states. The case in question was absurd and unique in the sense that it could only have happened in a loony restrictive moonbat state like Massachusetts. But the real screw-up by the MA SJC was to essentially mock and ridicule Heller in its written decision, something that SCOTUS seems to have taken great offense at.

It's great for us in Massachusetts because it tells the MA SJC that Heller must be taken seriously (something the MA SJC has never done before this). But as for status of stun guns? I don't see a whole lot changing. That case was an excuse for the long overdue SCOTUS slap down of the MA SJC re: Heller. It was not in any way about their love or support for stun guns. :o

Just my 2¢ worth as an interested MA resident. I am not a lawyer nor do I play one on TV. :)
 
Lets not forget Ma. is now a "May Issue" for long guns now and not just not handguns! Recall when an F.I.D. was good forever until revoked way back? Have heard of people caught with expired cards and faced the penalty. No joke!
