ceunupe: The next big push will be national reciprocity and you will see that included in the next gun safety bills i predict as a carrot for the RKBA side balanced by expanded universal background checks..
I hope not & doubt it, that dems will include a concealed carry national reciprocity attachment to any dem proposed gun legislation (where all states must recognize anyone carrying a valid out of state ccw permit). I suspect & hope again that obama would veto any 'national reciprocity' proposal, unless a lot of concessions from the gun lobby, like awb & supermag bans. Just to get a bg check bill passed is absurd, it would be a gunnut big victory while a pyrrhic victory for obama.
For obama to approve 'national reciprocity' at this point where gunlobby spit in his face over guncontrol, be like winston churchill saying to hitler, after conquering 'czecho', poland, denmark, holland & norway, Oh (smiley face) go ahead & invade France & Belgium, we won't do anything about it.
National ccw reciprocity would weaken may issue states like calif, maryland, new york, & 5 others & DC - only 9 'states' but about 30% of total population of USA. There is considerable leeway in adjudging violations of new york city's gun laws, as demonstrated in a previous post where two people carrying guns plead to a misdemeanor & paid a fine, is all. The laws are intended to protect against willful violations, knowingly carrying concealed in nyc. If those 2 do it again tho, katy bar the door for them.
ceu: I personally Carry and my wife used to{, decided} to stop once our daughter started moving around and now just keeps her carry gun in the bio-metric lockbox in her vehicle.
I tentatively gather your daughter is a toddler, ADVICE PUT YOUR GUNS TO SLEEP. How many guns you have ceu? MINIMIZE. Store them in a safe, or lockbox in attic, or visit a buyback. If you absolutely must have a gun for your job, if you live higher crime or money carrier, keep ONE with a hard trigger pull & keep ammo separate, take the chance you'll be able to load it quick enough when hell bent thug comes around, it's a safety alternative to offset you leaving loaded gun where your kid(s) could find it. Your wifes gun should stay there until your daughter graduates highschool, in your car's biometric lockbox.
