FYI. If you happen to be one of their 12 members, give them a good griping out tomorrow.

what a bunch of dirtbags. I sure hope it passes and gets signed into law. I have some family members that want to carry but they don’t have the money to get the license. So basically if you are poor you can’t protect yourself. That is not what the 2A says. But when does that matter? It’s gets pissed on every day by our government.

The .gov's all about taxing anything and everything they can - including inherent natural rights. Land ownership. Production and provision for your family. Hell, even breathing (i.e., Obamacare).

This is a step in the right direction, though.

I'm not trying to be a jerk by saying this at all.

Unless the gun they're wanting to carry was gifted to them, then apparently they had the money or the ability to save to buy the gun, which for a good ccw costs $250-$600, so the cost of the class $60 and the cost of the license $100 should be attainable.

We should do a survey and send in the results to the Senate as the Oklahoma Shooting Association in support of Constitutional Carry, I bet we have more members than the ORA.

This isn't really a bad idea. You're probably right. And I'd bet if we limited it only to average daily active posters we'd still beat them.

It's $225 for a permit all said and done but I dont wanna split hairs.
So case in point, a broke man living on SS owns a gun his dad gave him 40 years ago and he decides he'd like to carry it for self defense but he cant afford the permit on his $1200 a month income.
Cost of the gun isnt an issue. And this is the case a LOT.

I personally know 3 very good responsible people in this exact situation.

If you'd read my post again, I said "unless the gun they're wanting to carry was gifted to them"

yep, I read it and reinforced that's the case most often.
But I also agree, if they can afford an nice piece, they should be able to find the scratch for a permit but why should they have to?

If national reciprocity passes, a DL will be all that is needed in other states. Until then, I'll keep my CC handy.

Is that in the bill? Cuz I dont see that happening. Wyoming has Constitutional Carry but still has State permits for other states to recognize their permits
