Here in SD we have very much like Iowa is proposing. A concealed permit for 5 years have to do a short application at the sheriff's office. It makes it nice in a state like ours where we travel so much to do any shopping. When I got mine, it saved me a 3 hr drive each way to SF where I bought my pistol because it waived the waiting period. The permit was much cheaper than the gas. I like the idea of Vermont's stance, but ours is livable.

I have a CCL in Tx. However, I agree with Ted Nugent that the 2nd amendment is my license to carry. JDT, I support concealed carry for the very reason you state your preference for open carry; you don't know who is carrying, and you shouldn't. Open carry, while it should be allowed by the above mentioned 2A, may sometimes say "shoot me first". A BG may hesitate because of not knowing who is packing and who isn't when concealed carry is allowed.

I was told the sheriffs recruit people to get ccls in the border counties of texas, heard any rumors like that? I was thinking more of 7 guys sitting around in the pizza joint openly packing might discourage a couple of cash box bandits casing the joint, its a played out movie script, two guys bust in with guns and the entire room is pointing guns back at them kinda thing.

As long as the pizza joint don't serve alcohol

When I got back from Vietnam, I joined the NRA. They told me the Democrats were going to take my 6 weapons away. 41 years later, I now have 14.

yeah, most of the good pizza joints around here do sell beer but I'd say its 50/50 on ones that do and ones that don't, most chains don't most privates do but not all.
