I would like to see a "standard" across all states to get a license to carry firearms - same level of training and background check.

Does anyone have data on misuse of PA permits? Like people committing many murders or mass shootings compared to those who don't have carry permits.

I only ask, because it seems PA is generally a decent place, with the exception of some areas, and they just require a background check, $20 and a smile.

That would be the idea model as we should not have to go through the hazing and hoops we do to get a carry permit in Delaware.

Part of the DE mandated CCW course is (an informal?) "proficiency" test. PA and UT did not require this, relying instead upon the DE CCW requirements. I understand FL does not require proof of competence with a firearm, either, or it will accept millitary training or hunter safety courses (not certain of the details).


Also, I could be wrong but Florida does require a training certificate.

FL does require a "training certificate" but also does require "proficiency" ie "live fire" depending on what training certification you submit to them. 

I'm not a gun nut.  I'm a 2nd Amendment enthusiast.

That is what I thought.

I have heard many people ask why we can't carry a concealed gun in other states with our home state permit. Why can't it be like a drivers license. Well, there is a thing called the Driver's License Compact (DLC) which makes it legal to drive in any state with you r home state driver's license.
Unfortunately there is no such compact, act, or law allowing this at this time. Senator John Cornyn (R) od Texas has introduced Senate Bill S498 Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act od 2015. It was introduced on the Senate floor in February, read twice, and assigned to the Senate Judiciary Committee, where it is now. It has 16 co-sponsors, all Republican except one, Sen. Joe Manchin (D) of West Virginia. This similar bill was narrowly defeated last year, but now the Republicans control the Senate, the House and the Judiciary Committee. So, it may just stand a chance of going through. The real question is , will Obama Veto it, if passed, and can the Congress override his veto on this or anything. We will have to wait and see........

I think this should happen and happen soon. I also believe in reality and I do not think I will see this in my life time. If this happens I wil celebrate for everyone with the best red wine money can buy.

Currently there are 4 bills before Congress to make Concealed Carry permits, like a drivers license, good in all states that have legal concealed carry permits on the books.

https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th-congress/senate-bill/498/related-bills

The 2 latest co-sponsors the HR 923 are  Trey Gowdy and Bruce Westerman.

Click on the above URL to read any or all of these bills and see the lists of supporters and co-sponsors

Of course nobody from the State of Delaware is a co-sponsor because they are all Dumbocrat Liberal Progressives.

Would we get one from DE if we promised to carry the Carper rifles as our EDC?

I  have done a search of the internet and found no picture/image of a Carper Rifle. We only have his word that he was related to some one that made a rifle at one point in history.

I am glad to hear Tom Carper will not be running for re-election in 2016, as announce on April 1st. But, I'm sure the Liberal Progressive Democrats will have some one just as bad for gun owners to run for that seat.
