CCDL Applauds New Hampshire’s Passage of Constitutional Carry
(Before It's News)
Groton, CT –-(Ammoland.com)- The Connecticut Citizens Defense League (The state’s largest gun rights organization) highlights the state of New Hampshire adopting SB12 (permit-less/constitutional carry) into law.
Statement from CCDL President Scott Wilson:
“This is now the third New England state to have such laws with next to little bureaucratic financial nightmare attached to it. Our neighbors to the north are able to use their tax dollars for fixing roads or other needs the state may have.”
“While Governor Malloy contemplates new ways to further restrict and tax the constitutional rights of Connecticut residents, New Hampshire today joined a growing list of states that support Constitutional Carry.”
“This means that anyone who may legally possess a firearm may also carry it without further permits, licenses, or fees, as protected by the U.S. Constitution. Felons and persons otherwise prohibited still cannot legally own or carry firearms.”
Wilson also stated:
“It is interesting to point out that New Hampshire is leaving their permit system in place and lengthening their validity without increasing the fee. This is a tremendous convenience for New Hampshire citizens who wish to exercise reciprocal agreements with other states that are willing to participate. It’s a smart move on their part because responsible gun owners should not become a criminal just because they may want to travel to another state for business or vacation purposes.”
“While Connecticut refuses to honor the permits of any other state, New Hampshire will now attempt to negotiate reciprocity with every other state in the nation; just like with state drivers licenses.”
About the CCDL:
The Connecticut Citizens Defense League was formed in 2009 by a small group of concerned citizens as a non-partisan organization to advocate second amendment rights in the state of Connecticut. Since their founding, the group has grown to nearly 27,000 members from across the state.
Thanks to this large supportive base, the CCDL has become a fixture at the state capitol, and well-recognized by committees that see firearms related bills.
As the go-to organization in the state they are consulted regularly by lawmakers who have questions and concerns about pending legislation or existing laws. For more information on the CCDL please visit: www.ccdl.us
