To CC anywhere

[ThikSkin]

How many permits from how many states would you need to be able to CC anywhere? Imagine getting pulled over and handing the LEO a deck of permits.

I like how Uncle Ted Nugent put it. "The Second amendment is my CC permit."

Unless you're a law enforcement officer, or a retired one with appropriate ID and training, the possibility to legally carry anywhere in the country will not happen.

Some states just do not allow it at all no matter how many permits or licenses you have from other states. And some states that do issues permits, do not allow non-residents to apply and some are so restrictive that it's hard even for their own residents to get a permit/license.

It's not possible given IL and WI won't issue permits. OC is legal in WI though. Moreover, many "may issue" states simply won't issue and won't honor other states' permits.

In addition to the "no-carry" states of IL and WI, the "essentially impossible" states are NJ, NY, MD, DC, RI, CA, HI, SC and OR. Some, like MA and CT, are difficult but it can be done. While all of these states "theoretically" issue, you're more likely to be struck by a meteorite on your way home. SC is a "catch 22" -- no reciprocity with PA, don't honor non-resident licenses, and require that you own property there for their non-resident license. RI issues to non-residents only if you have a home or business there. OR issues to non-residents from adjacent states only. You can check out the details at www.handgunlaw.us.

Just empty words from Ted. Imagine getting pulled over and handing the LEO a copy of the 2nd.

Actually, CT is easy for a non-resident...it's the residents that get a run around. I had mine thru the mail in 40 days.

I don't think you are correct on RI....We can get them living here in PA...the RI issue is the Justifiable Need.

Looks like you're right there. handgunlaw.us says you need a home or business there but goes on to cite a law that says you're eligible if you have a license from any other state.

This is why we need federally mandated concealed carry reciprocity. This is unlikely to happen anytime soon for the following reason:

Harry Reid will likely not win re-election. If the Republicans fail to take the Senate and Reid is out, the new majority leader will likely be Chuck Schumer. He is as anti as they come and would be able to block concealed carry reciprocity for the forseeable future.

It's a pitty.

Of course, if you don't mind a 300-pound 6'6" bald headed dude named Bubba saying "Hey boy, you shore got a purty mouth...", you could do the other CC..Criminal Carry....

Not actually suggesting that, though, although Bubba might like it!

I believe he (schumer) carries too. The arrogance.
