A Republican congressman is prepared to introduce national concealed carry legislation in the next Congress after Donald Trump is sworn in as president.
North Carolina Republican Rep. Richard Hudson introduced a similar bill in February 2015, H.R. 986.
Now known as the Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017, the bill, which The Daily Caller obtained exclusively, would allow a person with a concealed carry license from one state to carry a concealed handgun in any other state that permits its resident to concealed carry, as long as the person is not banned from possessing or transporting a firearm under federal law.
The bill excludes carrying “a machine gun or destructive device,” and the person must follow “the restrictions of that state.” more
