How about if they're conceal-carrying?
Currently, gun owners are legally required to be authorized/permitted by each state in which they want to conceal-carry.
That might change soon. Amid all the current political flurry, House Republicans quietly rammed through a bill that would allow conceal-carry permits issued in one state to be valid across all other states that allow conceal carry. The NRA has been pushing hard for the change, of course. The bill has now moved to the Senate.
So, despite the recent mass shootings with hundreds of victims in Vegas, Texas, and Northern California, bump stocks are still legal, we still don't have universal background checks, there are no controls whatsoever on the sell and purchase of ghost gun kits, etc........BUT this legislation to loosen gun control is moving along.
