First off, we all I think feel that 2A in and of itself should be enough. That said - views vary as to firearms access by convicted felons, mentally unstable etc (all even themselves contentious subjects).
Leaving those issues aside but taking into account the almost huge variance, state by state on carry regulations, what would you choose as your ideal (or just acceptable) situation?
I am all but OK with my PA set-up, leaving aside the ''permissions'' aspect, though I would like to see folks encouraged more to take some training, for their own safety as well as others. I also would wish for restrictions on places of carry banishment to be reduced or lifted, even tho here they are quite minor.
I see some states where training and waiting periods seem absurd in their requirements. I see too of course states not yet taking up shall issue (I shed tears almost for the absurdity of the WI situation). I am still more than sympathetic too re MD, KS, IL etc - better also include DC, NYC, Chicago - so many ''exceptions".
If we accept that ''permissions'' are required - a ''bite the bullet'' modern requirement - then what would you accept as your ideal.?
