This week, the House Judiciary considered amendments
to H.R. 822, the National Right-to-Carry Reciprocity Bill, and defeated
all anti-gun amendments offered in an effort to weaken or gut the
legislation.
The legislation is an important pro-gun reform that will provide for
the recognition of carry permits in all states that issue permits. (For
detailed information on the legislation, ... it amended the
language so that visitors to states that have laws requiring licenses
just for possession of a handgun, do not need a possession license,
which is often unavailable to nonresidents.
The substitute also made clear that in states with local jurisdictions
that restrict carrying or possession, visitors will not need to apply
for special permits from those jurisdictions.

Opponents
of the bill proposed a number of anti-gun amendments that sought to use
misdemeanor convictions to disqualify people from the benefits of the
bill. All of these efforts were defeated. USA UAS USA

That seems too good to be true. Are you sure this is the U.S. Congress? If it is true, fat chance it'll get through the Senate.

Since it probably won't go through, they needed to make it even better.
ReplyDeleteIf ANYONE in a state can carry concealed ( including cops ), then your permit should be good.
Do you really want that camel to get its nose under the tent? First step on an extremely slippery slope to Congress making all the rules about who can carry, how they can carry, and where they can carry.
ReplyDeleteAs much as I'd like to see universal carry rights I am truely frightened by the thought that the Feds will be setting the rules. Far better we support the move to do away with BAFTEIEIO and all its rulings.
stay safe.

It will pass the House, but not the Senate. Even if it got by the Senate, it would be vetoed by Obama. This will have to wait for the next election. The argument that it interferes with the rights of states to set their own laws, and is a precedent for federal regulation where it doesn't have it now, is a good one. Like the immigration laws in Arizona and Alabama. However, I like this one, and can't wait for the next president to sign it into law.
ReplyDelete*yesssssssss*
ReplyDeleteThe amendments were all defeated!
It may not pass this time, but it should.
It's time will come.

So, Rodger, you wanting an old Colt Officer's Model Match in .38 spl as pictured or something a bit more easy to pack and/or higher capacity?
ReplyDeleteRAK
I like that because I don't have any cowboy guns. :)
ReplyDeleteWe can fix you up!
ReplyDeleteRAK
Your Highness, you need an Army model 1917 Cold DA revolver. I love mine and it looks like a cowboy gun and shoots a .45acp round.
ReplyDeleteTim
Colt, not cold.
ReplyDeleteTim
Tim, I had one that I bought at a gun show in California in the good old days for $200. I kick myself regularly for giving it to an ungrateful soul. All men should have one, or a Webley.

Between the RINOs and the Dems it stands no chance in the Senate. Good practice for 2013, though.
ReplyDeleteLove that infringe on states right shit from the left. Gun ownership is actually in the Constitution unlike abortion. They lost their credibility with roe v wade.
ReplyDeleteOhhh Ohhhh. Come onnnnnnn Santa!
ReplyDeleteThe big Tulsa gun show is up in about three weeks. Don't know 'bout you, Majesty, but may find something for myself
ReplyDeleteSkidmark: That camel has been sleeping inside the tent since 1934.
ReplyDeleteYour insistence on perfect vs. good is not helpful.
Wait... I have to seek the permission of those I wish to defend myself from?
ReplyDeleteThat don't make no sense. Not settling for "good enuff" there... Hafta be a damfool...
