Exclusive: GOP Congressman Preps National Concealed Carry Bill For Next Congress

[Cavalier Knight]

A Republican congressman is prepared to introduce national concealed carry legislation in the next Congress after Donald Trump is sworn in as president.

North Carolina Republican Rep. Richard Hudson introduced a similar bill in February 2015, H.R. 986.

Now known as the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017, the bill, which The Daily Caller obtained exclusively, would allow a person with a concealed carry license from one state to carry a concealed handgun in any other state that permits its resident to concealed carry, as long as the person is not banned from possessing or transporting a firearm under federal law. The bill excludes carrying “a machine gun or destructive device,” and the person must follow “the restrictions of that state.”

Watch it pass, and then watch NY ban concealed carry.

Now if we could only get any NFA item be made legal in all 50 states, we could get a suppressor and save our hearing.

 

[Cooolone]

Watch it pass, and then watch NY ban concealed carry.

Then it'll be OPEN (carry) season!

 

[Drinkthekoolaid]

This is very good news.

Would be better if it were just labeled bill HR 895 (or whatever) and buried along with legislation for a non partisan, across the board acceptable expenditure. The title of the proposed bill means a guaranteed filibuster and RINO dissent.

I'll be crossing my fingers on this so hard they'll break.
