...given the various licensing requirements that some states have, it's probably easier to just get a CCW permit.

That is what I'm going to do. I wouldn't have bothered, but now I have to go to the state police and get a special state-issued ID from the same government that issued my driver's license just to buy ammo. Why? Why isn't my driver's license enough?

So I'm going to get a CCW permit just do I don't have to deal with bullshit.

In Massachusetts you must have a license to carry Kang Colby Nov 2015 #3

Those licenses are now easier to get, as see post #4 friendly_iconoclast Nov 2015 #5

SecMo, your OP contains a factual error- Gun regulations have become *less* restrictive in MA friendly_iconoclast Nov 2015 #4

So the number of gun owners who actually carry concealed weapons has not risen SecularMotion Nov 2015 #6

No, it has risen, along with the overall number of gun licensees... friendly_iconoclast Nov 2015 #8

Nonsense. It's clearly a change in the licenses, not a significant increase in carriers SecularMotion Nov 2015 #9

Then why did the number of concealed carriers increase drastically *before* the new law? friendly_iconoclast Nov 2015 #10

It appears my interlocutor found my question and/or observations too awkward for reply friendly_iconoclast Nov 2015 #11

Well, if they were being consistent... beevul Nov 2015 #12
