In ~4 months it will be a new year and all eyes will turn to TEXAS which is expected to pass Constitutional Carry!
Antifa and BLM riots will only make more people want to carry for self defense. Last edited by Paladin; 08-30-2020 at 8:21 PM.. |

^^ That is good news. However, they should add one thing to it, as West Virginia has done. There are states, like Virginia, that will recognize any concealed carry permit from any other state that issues them. Good thing, right? Yes, of course; this is how carry permits should be treated, just like drivers' licenses.
But there's one wrinkle. Vermont, the original "Constitutional Carry" state, doesn't issue permits! Of course not; it never have to, since, duh, they don't *require* them for carry in the first doggone place. Problem: That means that since Vermont doesn't issue permits, Vermonters who visit states like Virginia (and they do) cannot legally carry concealed here. Whoops. When West Virginia went Constitutional Carry (a very good thing!), they were made aware of this wrinkle and thus maintained the option to issue permits for states, like neighboring Virginia, that do require them. Montana should do likewise.

Here in South Carolina we have had a "Constitutional Carry" law on the dockets in the State House for a few years now and they have expired at the end of the legislature session and rendered dead. One problem with our states government is that our state requires all bills to be handled by the politicians so there is no way to allow a bill be voted on by the public. There is a legal term for it but I can't remember it, a handful of states still have this formality.
I guarantee it would be passed by a sweeping majority of the citizens here if we allowed it to be on a ballot initiative. Only problem is, I've seen how it can also destroy a state like California where you can get idiots to vote in new taxes via ballot initiative and every other dumb thing you can think of. I remember the idiots voting to KEEP the gas tax from Gerry Brown after it was supposed to "sunset".... I email my state reps frequently to finally finish this and make us a Constitutional Carry State, and hopefully it will happen during some legislative session in the future.

Actually, the FOPA protects you while going through those states as well if you have the larger magazines...as long as you are going *through* those states, not *to* them...along with unloaded and in the trunk.

The feds do not require you to unload the mags, but they can't be inserted into the magwell. I believe there is a California case that says that a firearm is not loaded unless there is a bullet in the chamber, but nonetheless, having the mag out of the firearm is clearly beneficial.

Time to lock down this 2020 thread and start a new one re bills for year 2021. I won’t start the new thread, so someone else needs to step up and provide a suitable Opening Post. I’m just too busy helping CGNers apply for and even get CCWs from the LA Sheriffs Dept
ETA: What you need in the OP of the 2021 thread is a link to the OP of the previous year’s thread (this one, http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s....php?t=1579069) and embed the RadicalGunNuttery map for the previous year (i.e., 2020) in late Dec or early Jan found at: http://www.gun-nuttery.com/rtc.php

Let's hope the aforementioned Texas Constitutional Carry Bill gets some traction. Let's also hope that, should it become law (a good thing, obviously), they continue to issue permits for those other states that still require permitting for carry and have reciprocity with Texas.

Utah looking at two options, one during a declared emergency (such as putting the "dem" in pandemic) and one offering full con carry.

Iowa
In Iowa the focus this year is on the legislature passing the Freedom Amendment (adding a RKBA to the state constitution), so that the voters can vote on it in 2022.
There should be a Con Carry bill introduced but, if need be, it may have to wait until 2022.

The RKBA amendment in and of itself could easily be interpreted to include at least unlicensed open carry (and perhaps even concealed). But changing the law this year would be welcome as they currently don't have any unlicensed carry.

The NRA’s top priority in Utah is passing Constitutional Carry.

Texas
Texas legislative session begins tomorrow (it lasts 140 days/20 weeks, until June 1st). They’ve got major issues to deal with (the budget, redistricting and the pandemic), not counting Constitutional Carry. But expect Texas GOP Chairman Allen West to pressure members to also pass controversial “social issues,” incl Constitutional Carry.

Mr Rabbit, since you’re on my Ignore List all I could see when logged in was that you replied. In the hope that might have done something positive like point out to Yugo their mistake I logged out to view your post. Instead I see that you used their mistake to—by context—imply you know better than the NRA as to what defines Constitutional Carry. Thanks for showing me and the rest of CGNers that you haven’t changed, you’re still a troll trying to highjack threads off topic. To all the rest: don’t fall for Mr Rabbit’s bait. Just ignore his posts by adding him to your Ignore List (click User CP at the far left of the 2nd blue row near top of a webpage). Don’t feed trolls the attention they crave. Besides, life is just much more pleasant without vain trolls in your life.

Nebraska
In Nebraska it looks like our side can’t get Constitutional Carry pass the state legislature so they’re trying to get LB 236 passed that will allow each county to decide whether they’ll allow CCing without a permit.
https://www.tsln.com/news/nebraska-s...lative-update/ It will make NE a confusing patchwork of local laws regarding Constitutional Carry. But I guess “part of a loaf” is better than nothing. I just hope they eventually win it for the whole state.
