If you have a county permit and have bought a gun from a dealer in the last couple years .....you pretty much are a gun owner, on the list.Quote:

Or, why do I need to pay for, have a LEO sign for, and wait for permission to put a jacket on? If I am legal to open carry, why is there a jacket tax?Quote:

IMO, Constitutional Carry is the only "common sense" answer.
Isn't that explicitly implied in the 2nd Amendment? Right to keep and BEAR arms... I don't think having your guns sitting in a safe is bearing them, otherwise it'd be right to keep and store arms. "Where's your CCW permit?" "Uh, Amendment 2, US Constitution..." [Shake]Quote:

Open carry is free but can be a hassle by ill-informed citizens and LEOs.
Oh and by the way, I have open carried several times in WA and lets just say you get some of the funniest looks as people shuffle out of your way, it's kinda like the parting of the Red Sea. You can see it on most of their faces, they want to say something to you but they're afraid to at the same time.
Except where it isn't allowed- Boulder, Denver, Golden... O/C there and you could get into some hot water.Quote:

I got my CCW in exactly 6 weeks from Adams County. It has been a beyond shitty year so far, I was really was happy to see this show up!
