    Hey craig welcome to the forum!

    You should check out a thread I started yesterday regarding Issues Important To You and add your idea (plus any others you have). Eventually we hope yo have a big shopping list of things we'd like to change in the state for eventual attempt at implementation.

    No need to apologize at all, your idea is a great one and I'll leave this open so people can discuss it. Just wanted to make sure it also made it to the other list so we have all those issues in one place.

    Rather than Lifetime, I'd prefer a National Permit.

    As much as I'd like to see a National Permit, and have the freedom to carry nationwide, this is an issue which I think should remain within State's Rights.

    If Congress got a hold of this and tried to legislate nationwide carry laws, those laws would, for all their good intentions, in effect become gun control laws. Why? Because we'd have every liberal Senator and Representative from every urban center in the country, where anti-gun thinking is common, weighing in on whether I should have the right to carry in a small town in PA. There's NO WAY everyone is going to agree on this issue, and something which started with good intentions will get legislated to death.

    In addition, if nationwide reciprocity were to be proposed, then every liberal legislator in the country would try to force states to be more strict about the issuance of LTC permits in order to prevent their existing anti-gun laws from being subverted.

    In general, this processes gives legislators which I did not elect the authority tell me how I should live my life in PA.

    I REALLY would like to see this country stand up for it's rights, uphold the Constitution, and allow me to carry anywhere, but I don't think that's going to happen. And in the meantime, I don't want people from all over the country telling me if/how to carry a gun in PA.

    Me to on a 'National Permit'. But--it may be easier one state at a time. So, let's make 'The Keystone' the next one for Lifetime!

    Maryland? (Lock it in the trunk-separate from ammo). Can go legally from here to Florida if I avoid D.C. other than that few miles across Maryland?
