    It is amazing all of this info and not much being said.

    So here is one site which seems to have accurate info.

    http://www.handgunlaw.us/

    Click on the map and see what is said about each state and who they have a reciprocating agreement with.

    I must add that we should all be like Vermont.

    Carrying a gun into Canada is a no brainer, carrying a gun in our country is another.....

    Like this thread will be soon be, those threads are 80 pages of bickering from every possible angle without coming to a single definitive conclusion. The end result is always the same: "Sure.. maybe, well, kinda no.. but probably?"

    I'll sum it up for everyone:

    -Why do you need a gun? Thats what the police are for.
    -It's against company policy. Never violate company policy!
    -I'm guessing it's illegal, but i'm not about to look it up, so just take my word for it.
    -The 2nd amendment triumphs all laws!! I will bare my bear arms and theres nothing you can do to stop me!
    -It's a complicated issue because every state has different laws.
    -Carried by 6 than judged by 12 babble
    -and so on

    I'm pretty sure most of us are not lawyers. This seems like a question a group like the OOIDA (or maybe even the NRA or preferably a less scummy 2A group) might have an answer for. I've considered asking on some gun forums, but I figure the only answer you'll get there is a rant about the constitution.

    I have an app on my phone that is updated constantly to keep up with the ever changing laws of each state. Between that and checking the carry sites regularly, I strive to keep myself educated and out of trouble.

    -Why do you need a gun? Thats what the police are for.
    Got a cop hanging out in the jump seat, do you?
    -It's against company policy. Never violate company policy!
    It's not against my company policy. Not that it matters.
    -I'm guessing it's illegal, but i'm not about to look it up, so just take my word for it.
    Typical. This is why the country is in the toilet.
    -The 2nd amendment triumphs all laws!! I will bare my bear arms and theres nothing you can do to stop me!
    Not worthy of a reply.
    -It's a complicated issue because every state has different laws.
    That's why one informs oneself.
    -Carried by 6 than judged by 12 babble
    Again, not worthy of a reply.
    -and so on

    I'm pretty sure most of us are not lawyers. This seems like a question a group like the OOIDA (or maybe even the NRA or preferably a less scummy 2A group) might have an answer for.

    Meaning you know you'll get pounced for your anti- 2nd Amendment stance.
