I'm glad to see something happening too, but this leaves a lot of ambiguity and a lot of questions.
What if you have a CCL from a state that you are not a resident of? FL, UT, AZ and NV all issue permits to non-residents. Can a guy or gal from CA with a FL permit legally carry in Boston or NYC if this bill passes? Can a guy in CA with a FL permit legally carry in CA?
What about state level 10 round magazine laws? If a CCL holder from SC drives into NY or NJ with their 17 round mag and their CCL, are they legal to carry their gun, but busted for having too many rounds?
This is a good start. The anti's will scream that the sky is falling, of course. When the sky doesn't fall and violent crime drops, as it always does when gun laws are relaxed, I'd like to see more expansion on this concept. Eventually, I'd like to get to a point where the 2A is respected and followed, and my rights aren't infringed upon in any way or in any state. We should not need government permission to exercise inalienable rights, but I understand the concept of taking incremental steps toward that goal, just as we've been taking incremental steps away from that goal for so many decades now. Bust the criminals. Leave the good guys alone.
