"Constitutional Carry" (Permitless-for-the-Most-Part) American states for salty sea dogs.
I love the sea, sea-going fish and strong gun rights so I made this thread just for fun. It's nice to be able to go to the beach, surfing, dune-buggying, marine scuba diving or salt-water/salmon fishing packing without a CCW!
The following Permitless-for-the-Most-Part states have sea coast:
1. Alaska: Pacific and Bering sea coast, non-Lower-48, highly expensive to live there
2. Maine: Atlantic sea coast, one of two Lower 48 Permitless-for-the-Most-Part states with sea coast; Maine is somewhat wishy-washy with regard to true "Constitutional carry" (you might not be able to enjoy some salt-water activities, including beachcombing, carrying permit-less)
3. New Hampshire: just a tad of Atlantic sea coast, 18 miles of shoreline
The following Permitless-for-the-Most-Part states have Gulf coast:
4. Texas: Gulf of Mexico, Permitless-for-the-Most-Part for residents only
5. Mississippi: Gulf of Mexico
Honorable Mention: the following Permitless-for-the-Most-Part state has no salt water coastline but has a river system in which ocean salmon migrate there to be caught. Many "salty sea dogs" like fresh salmon and/or salmon fishing and might settle for salmon, especially Pacific salmon, from a fresh-water body.
6. Idaho: wild migratory salmon, trout and steelhead can can be sport fished there, the only Lower 48 CC state which Pacfic salmon can be caught there; requires "enhanced permit" to carry on public college campuses
there's still these weird notions that "guns don't belong on campus" as if these places will "never be hit by armed criminals"
There is no Lower 48 state with Pacific coastline that is CC or Permitless-for-the-Most-Part. Alaska is the only Pacific coast state that is Permitless-for-the-Most-Part at this time. Sadly at this time, there are no CC or Permitless-for-the-Most-Part states with WARM or HOT sunny beaches along an OCEAN. I don't think New England beaches are particularly warm or hot even during the summertime.
PS - Georgia and at least one of the Carolinas have been considering becoming Constitutional Carry or perhaps Permitless-for-the-Most-Part lately. Before this decade is over, American soil might actually have a warm/hot/sunny ocean beach to pack a concealed pistol there without a license.
