National reciprocity

[KFhunter]

National reciprocity for concealed carry passed the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday is expected to receive a floor vote before the end of the year.
The Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017 was introduced by Rep. Richard Hudson (R-NC) on January 3, 2017. It changes federal law that so concealed carry permits are treated like driver’s licenses, making a permit from one state valid in the other 49. This would fix the complicated and often confusing patchwork of concealed carry laws currently in effect throughout the country.

To put it simply, Hudson’s bill allows the common man to defend himself and his family as he travels throughout this country.

On November 28 Breitbart News reported that Hudson’s legislation was scheduled for a markup in the House Judiciary Committee and the markup would serve as the last stop before a floor vote.

This is a great bill but would this also apply to places like Portland that have their own rules/laws about CCW? would love this to pass!

It would basically work the same as if you had an Oregon CCW. So if Oregon state law says Portland can make it's own rules, then you would have to follow them. Luckily here in WA only the state can make firearms laws.

My son lives in Salem Oregon and told me he was going to apply for a Washington State CWP. I told him he couldn't do that, since he lives in another state. Sure as you know what, you can. Oregon doesn't recognize Washington State CWP's, something is wrong..

Portland doesn't have specific regulations regarding CCW. Your OR CCW is the only regulation. However, I do believe that some cities do have ordinances, like Chicago (where they've worked so well in reducing gun violence), D.C. (another shining example of how well gun control affects crime), and NYC. If the reciprocity were passed by Congress (and it likely never will), You would be good to carry everywhere concealed. However, that doesn't mean you wouldn't have to follow magazine capacity or other restrictions from state-to-state.

I think we need to talk more about this over a drink pianoman

Would it apply to places like NYC where they officially have permits but they aren't available to the average guy?

I have three right now and managing renewals is not the easiest job.

In a Facebook post, Massie says the “Fix-NICS” bill would allow “agencies, not just courts, to adjudicate your second amendment rights.”

Massie, the Chairman of the Second Amendment Caucus, says the bill will advance former President Obama’s gun control agenda, adding that the Senate’s bill will send $625 million over five years to states to expand the national background check database. Massie says the House bill will also commission a study on bump stocks.

“[“Fix-NICS”] encourages administrative agencies, not the courts, to submit more names to a national database that will determine whether you can or can’t obtain a firearm,” Massie wrote. “When President Obama couldn’t get Congress to pass gun control, he implemented a strategy of compelling, through administrative rules, the Veterans Administration and the Social Security Administration to submit lists of veterans and seniors, many of whom never had a day in court, to be included in the NICS database of people prohibited from owning a firearm.”

Massie continued, “Only a state court, a federal (article III) court, or a military court, should ever be able to suspend your rights for any significant period of time.”

Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer are cosponsors of the Senate bill.

Massie says the bills should be voted on separately if the House does not change the flawed Fix-NICS bill.

“If our House leadership insists on bringing the flawed Fix-NICS bill to the floor, they shouldn’t play games,” he said. “We should vote separately on HR 38, the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Bill, and HR 4477, the Fix-NICS bill. And we should be given enough time to amend the Fix-NICS bill, because it needs to be fixed, if not axed.”

The National Rifle Association (NRA), who has endorsed both bills, has criticized Massie for “spreading misinformation” and called his claims “incorrect.” The NRA insists the H.R. 4477 has been through a “very thorough and public markup session of its own” and argues that each bill has enough votes to pass on its own.

But other gun rights groups disagree.

I have some pretty mixed feeling on these bills. I think the feds have too much power as it is, but would like to see people able to carry across state lines easier.

I wonder how that would work if administrative judges were nixed?

HR 38 was passed by the house today.
