    I also believe it is no more then 10 rounds of ammo in a rifle not a pistol now dont quote me on that. I am positive about the CA CCW permits though.

    You are positively (and dangerously) wrong...CA will not allow any pistols or rifles that hold more than 10 rounds (at least not without proper registration, which IS NOT easy to get in CA)

    And CA does not honor out of state CCW permits...not a single one.

    People should be more careful about posting this stuff...it could land somebody in jail.

    Its the law in Kennesaw :biggrin_25525:. Since 1985, city ordinance required all homeowners to own a firearm. Our property crime took a serious decline and has stayed that way ever since. Know the laws, carry responsibly, act respectfully, and you should have no problems. Key fact in Deadly force. Ability, opportunity, and jeopardy. The scrot must have the ability to cause you death or serious bodily harm, have the opportunity to use that ability, and place you in immediate jeopardy of being killed or seriously wounded. Also, deadly force may only be used in the defense of one's self or others NOT PROPERTY!!! Peace, Love, and Happiness :mcool:

    I haven't made it through all 100 pages of posts, but figured I'd chime in.

    A Utah permit gives you 33 states that you can carry in and most of them are larger ones. A Florida permit gives you nearly as many. You still wouldn't have Kansas or Nevada, as I recall, but it would cover most of the bigger midwest and western states.

    No permit required at all in Alaska or Vermont (included in the 33 number above).

    Most states have a "Utah instructor" that is pretty easy to find. You can get the class and the permit for probably around $120 or so.

    There is a federal law that allows you to transport firearms across state lines in all of the 50 states. As drivers, that's about what we're doing.

    There are some quirky laws. In Cali you can only have 10 round magazines or smaller. In a few states there are local firearm laws that are not preempted by state laws.

    Learn the state laws that you're regularly traveling in, get a Utah or Florida permit, and don't be public about the fact that you're carrying.

    Tennessee permits are accepted in 35 states...

    The states below have written reciprocity agreements with TN...
    Alaska
    Arizona
    Arkansas
    Florida
    Georgia
    Kentucky
    Louisiana
    Michigan
    Mississippi
    New Hampshire
    North Carolina
    Ohio
    Pennsylvania
    South Carolina
    South Dakota
    Texas
    Virginia
    West Virginia
    Wyoming

    The states below don't have written agreements...but do honor TN permits
    Alabama
    Colorado
    Delaware
    Idaho
    Indiana
    Kansas
    Minnesota
    Missouri
    Montana
    Nebraska
    Nevada
    New Mexico
    North Dakota
    Oklahoma
    Utah
    Vermont

    Some states DO NOT honor "non resident permits" from any state (meaning, a person who does not live in the state that issued the permit)...don't overlook this fact. I would list the states that are like this...but, to be honest, I forget which states it is...WY is one of them I believe, but I'm not sure...it doesn't apply to me so it has slipped from my memory.

    All data above is guaranteed accurate at the time of posting (things do change regularly)... http://www.tennessee.gov/safety/handgun/reciprocity.htm
